    Couldn't imagine a better first post– thanks, Laura!

    Hounddog was really good! I mean she plays a really good poor country girl … but it was really good!! Def reccomend seeing it … she said that while she filmed Hounddog she went barefoot the whole time so that her feet always had that black look about them … just one of the many reasons to love Dakota :)

    Couldn't agree more. And b/c some of these comments have one of our bloggers upset and feelings hurt. Not cool.

  • CF911 Flippofo

    Dude, do you know how jealous I am of you right now that you can find IP address info that fast?

    It's an act of Congress before I can get that kind of info in my job. Geez.

    LOL

  • Breesmom~team Bel-Ami Rob

    I would imagine Rob has already seen it. I'd imagine he looked at it as an actor and as a friend. He was probably very objective about it all…and, he could have been watching it with them, or at least Kristen…

  • MARIA

    URGH! kristen haters really take it all the way! I've read some of the stuff they say, “why does she never smile? she's at the freakin BAFTA's for god's sake!” they even complain about awkward she looks in speeches and interviews, “it's embarrasing to watch her stutter for twenty minutes” and finish it off, they insult her movie work, saying that she was how dead and unemotional she looked. BACK OFF PEOPLE! I'm glad to see tons of fans backing Kristen up. She needs to know that people love her.

    But yeah, I got what you mean. You take one look at Dakota and you so her as this incredibly young and talented actress without a single bit of trouble in her life. But she does, she's only human. But I think she'll pull off Cherie just great. I can't wait to see her performing in the corset with the swinging microphone trick. ^.^

    Kristen and Dakota need fans to support them for this movie. It's a raw and pivotal turn in both of their careers.

  • ancha85

    Sorry to disagree, but they are just portraying the facts of these girls lives exactly like they happened.

    Dakota is wearing this because Cherie Curry wore this. Cherie Curry was exploited in a sexist manner. It is true that no one looked out for her.
    Dakota is just TELLING HER STORY. She and her parents knew what she was getting into when she read the script and signed on for the part.

    No one is exploiting Dakota, nor is it wrong for her to portray Cherie Currie, because Dakota is a consumate actress.

    depend the VPN client being used…. seriously it work like that! Is this my tech talk coming out. When my company was part of the US we had a US VPN client and that gave me a US IP which meant when I logged on through that I could watch the US tv shows like ABC, NBC websites etc on the net . But if I log on now I can't because we aren't part if the US hence get google belguim!! :(

  • http://www.robs-closet.blogspot.com/ RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)

    I'm very conservative, and I find nothing wrong about these pictures. I'm actually offended by people linking this pic in with something as horrific as 'child pornography' and 'pedophilia'– things that actually ARE a very serious offense are being linked together with a photoshoot of a rockstar.

  • CF911 Flippofo

    Hounddog. Wow, incredible movie.

    And The Secret Life of Bees was really good too. This chick is going places.

  • Breesmom~team Bel-Ami Rob

    So sad…

    What you say is true…not even close to the real thing.

    That is one sad…ugly…truly evil world.

  • http://www.robs-closet.blogspot.com/ RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)

    Yes, I know! :-( I'm also upset that people are linking Dakota's depiction of Cherie Currie in the same likes as something as disgusting and horrific as child pornography. Double standard, much?

  • http://www.newmoonmovie.org/ LMCullen [Awesome since Mar09]

    LMFAO!!!!!!!!!

  • KStewfan – Team Bada$$ Stew!!

    I say down with ALL the haters!! Love and support the Twicast … or get to steppin!!

    Kristen haters are truely the worst though! But I will fight with anyone who calls her a bad actress!!

    Were all human and make mistakes – believe me I have made plenty – it's how you handle yourself after those mistakes and whether you learn from them

  • MARIA

    No, I completely understand how frustrating it can be for people to simply claim to be Kristen and other people, and all, espiecally since your a mod. But I'm not claiming to be best buds with Dakota, I'm just saying that I got to school with her and that I know her a little. But I hope that it doesn't change my opinion or view of her. I just want to state that people shouldn't bash her because of her roles.

  • Breesmom~team Bel-Ami Rob

    I'm sorry, I don't mean to be rude…do you have a name, an identifier of some kind here? Your opinion is valued here…it would, however, be nice to be aware of who is voicing it. Most of us who comment here are well known for having our own thoughts, opinions, feelings on a range of different things, but we have some way of being identified…a screen name, an avi…where is yours?

    You seen to have a strong opinion about this…we would like to have more than “Name” and a gray silhouette to identify this opinion with.

  • TSC <3 Flying Ninja Rob

    Seems this post has caused quite the controversy.. I think I see almost all the mods here.. I'm not sure what to say except that I know she is an extremely talented actress.. like many out there.. and she just does what she loves.. and is very good at it

  • KStewfan – Team Bada$$ Stew!!

    I agree on both accounts!! actual all 3 :)

  • http://www.newmoonmovie.org/ LMCullen [Awesome since Mar09]

    VERY disturbing!!

    I could see if her boobs were showing, or her butt or something. BUT even THEN .. its a movie!!!!

    I'm not even trying to make anyone here feel bad, or anything like that. But if they can dish it out, they can certainly take it. As I said, feelings were hurt, and we always defend each other!! I don't think there is anything wrong w/ the pictures…and I can't wait to see the Runaways!!!! :P

  • CF911 Flippofo

    I am being serious as a heart attack, I hope none of you ever have to endure seeing that shiz. It is horrific.

    And they fact that people are comparing this photo to that is on the verge of ridiculousness.

    We live in a cruel world, and in the general scheme of things, I think Dakota posing in a scantilly clad outfit in front of a car is nothing compared to some of the things she could be doing in films.

    She was in a r*pe scene once. Acting is about more than looking pretty and perfect and bubbly and portraying characters that are unrealistically happy all the time.

    Life is hard and tough. Dakota is portraying that in this film.

  • Kez_MLIT

    when you see interviews of her, the way she understands her roles you would NOT think she was 15/16, wise beyond her years that girl.
    and because she's smsrt and obviously hasnt been pushed into this part I think it's fine, sheesh its so not like child pornography (not that I would know!) but these are promotional shots.
    In the film you probably wont notice it so much because she's acting and you'll forget she was 15 at the time.

    phew.

  • 30yroldtwifanTeamPCoatStranger

    Hell yeah we are! Were counting down for this one. :)

  • MARIA

    I'm glad that people are passionate and dedicated to the movie! And supportive of the cast too! I'm really hoping that this movie will add more possibilities (adult roles?) and hopefully awards for Dakota and Kristen in the future!

    Yeah, almost everyone at Sundance was saying that is was AMAZING! Joan Jett and Cherie Currie almost had that swell of pride that made me go “AWWWW” lol.

  • http://www.newmoonmovie.org/ LMCullen [Awesome since Mar09]

    It is completely wrong for ppl to do so. I'm all for free speech. But when that free speech makes you a hypocrite then you really need to sit back and think about what you are saying .. you know?

    Was a 15 year old PLAYING a 15 year old. So in their opinion should a 30 year old have played the part of Cherie Currie?? or someone older w/ less talent?!

  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ein3fOLIv9w TeamSpaceHeaters♥PaulexIsMINE!

    i never said that they were bad!!

    Its just when I am hooked to my work network it shows me as being there for some reason!

  • Breesmom~team Bel-Ami Rob

    No, they're not…and a life on the road with a rock and roll band…even worse.

    Not pretty at all…..Sordid, even.

    Ever seen the movie, “Almost Famous”?— Well, that was the “pretty, sanitized version”

  • http://www.robs-closet.blogspot.com/ RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)

    Exactly. I'm SUUUPER excited to see this movie, and that does not make me any kind of pervert– no one should feel gross or perverse for posting these pics and/or looking forward to seeing the movie.

  • Robertsgirl

    I agree.

    It is a total double standard to think it is okay to drool over Taylor and Boo Boo when they are half naked and then have a go at Dakota and her Parents because she is wearing a skimpy outfit.

    It was for a role, she is not walking around like this everyday and you see girls on the beach and at the pool wearing far less than this!

  • jillEbean

    no need to shout. just stating my opinion. sheesh

  • Twilight_In_Phx

    Hounddog, really good. I was a little nervous to watch it 'cause of “the scene” but it was nothing as to what the hype led me to believe. Dakota, awesome in it!

  • CherBear87

    Okay, guys, how about THIS for Dakota's style… Had me laughing so hard that I probably scared my dog =P

  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ein3fOLIv9w TeamSpaceHeaters♥PaulexIsMINE!

    I know you are so right RIMIR. I'm like you quite consertive… yes hard to believe I know but I am!

    I dont see anything wrong with this and for people to associate with something that is so bad is just wrong

  • Robertsgirl

    That's exactly what I said.

  • http://www.newmoonmovie.org/ LMCullen [Awesome since Mar09]

    Uh OH!!! Youss a baaaaaaaad girl RIMRRRRRRRR

    bad bad BAD … PERV!!

    hahahahahaahhaa

  • kit/TeamVampStew

    im honestly confused from all of the negative comments….

    i mean, what did you expect? first of all, its CHERIE CURIE. its not gonna be all rainbows and cupcakes and frilly princess dresses. just sayin'

    secondly, she was wearing the corset in the trailer. and, yes, it is a slightly provocative picture, but child pornography? absolutely not

    she is obviously mature beyond her years, and was able to handle taking on this sort of role. lets all remember that she was acting, and not only that, but that she was portraying a real life bad a$s rock and roll icon :D

  • bella vita

    Oooooh get em girl! LOL at the Boo Boo Stewart part and its so true! I'm 23 so the BooBoo Stewart stuff makes me uncomfortable, but I also get most of his fans are not my age and older so its fine if wants to take his shirt off for the teenage girls.

    I'm confused and shocked why anyone is upset over this. Its a costume based on what was worn by Cherrie Currie the awesome character she is portraying. For god's sake what's next? Get mad because Kristen wore plaid flannel when playing Bella or perhaps because she is wearing leather pants as Joan Jett!! Call the morals police we have an absolute crisis on our hands! This is just so completely stupid to me!

  • Breesmom~team Bel-Ami Rob

    I agree, RIMR. Dakota looks like she has done an amazing job as Cherie Currie from what I have seen so far. I am very impressed with this choice of a role. It would be so difficult to portray a real person with any kind of accuracy…and even harder when that person is alive and people still remember her and that time in history themselves.

    This outfit is a part of the story…yes, even Cherie Currie was taken aback when she first saw it and put it on…but she did and therefore…its a big part of what happened I think. It says a lot.

  • http://rhythmchyc.livejournal.com/175455.html NTJB-KStew'saBADmotha…

    <gives it a big ol' slobbering lick>

    Wow.

    I. Am. Died.

    Thanks for the experience, LM. I shall never forget it.

  • Twilight_In_Phx

    Wow, is the car picture above causing all of this angst? Girls go out on Halloween with less clothes then that!

  • http://rhythmchyc.livejournal.com/175455.html NTJB-KStew'saBADmotha…

    Uh huh. That's right. And because of that, she gets the 5 ct bauble LOL.

  • HugAVampire_PunchAWerewolf

    I'm just curious. How can you go to a school in LA when your IP is from Great Britain?

  • bella vita

    AMEN! I was graduated early so I could move out and start college when I was 17 too and I didn't consider myself a “child” at all. Like you said some people are simply more mature than others. I also agree how offensive it is that some people are throwing around the term “child porn” in regards to this post. They're clearly ignorant people that don't have a clue about the horror of real child pornography and what it is like because this is FAR from it. Honestly people don't talk about things you know absolutely nothing about. Simple as that.

  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ein3fOLIv9w TeamSpaceHeaters♥PaulexIsMINE!

    ooo 'like'!!!!!

    LOL

  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ein3fOLIv9w TeamSpaceHeaters♥PaulexIsMINE!

    Well said!!!

    I wish all moms were like you!!

  • bella vita

    Yes yes yes yes! *applauds* in agreement. Also great examples of other actors in biopics who were NOT judged based on their characters' choices in those films. Loved Walk the Line and Ray!

    The people who are offended and saying she's too young clearly had the luxury of living a very sheltered life growing up which some of us like Cherrie Currie the character Dakota is portraying did not.

  • ancha85

    She is ONLY dressed the way the her real life character dressed. Period.

    Cherie Currie WAS exploited. Dakota Fanning is NOT.
    She is just telling Cherie Currie's story.
    She is ACTING out a true story. She is not posing for these pics for shock value or sexy poses. This is what REALLY happened.

  • bella vita

    I'm with you! I'm dumbstruck by all this. When I clicked on this post I never expected to find all this going on! I just don't get it.

    So people are cool with Miley Cyrus grinding all over a stripper pole at the TEEN Choice Awards with her parents sitting front row, but THIS is offensive? Dakota is playing an iconic character and this is what she wore. Get over it people.

  • bella vita

    EXACTLY! Maybe these people just don't know anything about the Runaways? If they did they would know that it was Cherrie's signature outfit so Its not like Dakota could have just put on some sweats or jeans and a big wooly sweater and pretended to be Cherrie Currie! Dakota is a smart girl so you can bet your — she did her research on the character same as Kristen did before she ever even signed on to do the movie and her parents were equally informed.

  • bella vita

    and again I agree with your every word especially about the innocence part! That's great if you were lucky and sheltered enough to still be “innocent” at 15, but not all of us are and Cherrie Currie certainly wasn't so in my opinion its extremely unfair for anyone to judge Dakota for simply portraying Cherrie exactly as she was and her life exactly as she lived it. Cherrie was also 15. Some of us are years more mature than others at that age. I would absolutely not have considered myself a “child” at 15 especially since I moved out at 17. Dakota is probably more of an adult than some people in their 30's.
