I've been a ballerina since I was two, but I've always wanted to be an actress.

I played the young Reese Witherspoon in 'Sweet Home Alabama' when I was 7, and the boy who played the young Josh Lucas was 10.

I don't throw my clothes out after one wear. Shocking, I know.

My dad named me Dakota and my mom came up with my first name Hannah. So it's Hannah Dakota Fanning.

I'm very proud to be a woman - you're part of a tribe. Automatically, you feel connected to another woman when you meet them. That's really special.

It's hard to remember when you look at a magazine or when you look at pictures of people, and you forget that those people are people like you. They have flaws and insecurities. That's so easy to forget, even for me, as somebody who's sometimes in those magazines.

The gunshot holds no fear!
