Hey M Girls!
Eclipse vampire and high school student, Dakota Fanning, had to miss out on the screening of Eclipse because she had to take the ACT exam (a test much like the SATs used for getting into colleges!). It's a total bummer Dakota didn't get to watch the movie with the Eclipse cast -- and what's even more stressful is that she's not sure how she did on the test!
Dakota recently said, ""I was taking the ACT. It could be really good or really bad, we'll see. I did some guessing on my Scantron. I didn't know one question on the science section. D sounded good! So I don't know, that was not good for me. I don't even know how it's scored."
Don't worry, Dakota! We think you'll be happy with your test results!
Let's dish:
-What do you think of Dakota attending public high school? Does it make her more relatable or the same as she would if she got homeschooled?

Hey M Girls!
It's Dakota Fanning's 16th Birthday today!
Over the weekend, Dakota celebrated the big 16 with a dinner party at Villa Blanca in Beverly Hills. 40 guests joined the Twilight star (Psst! Including her high school cheerleading teammates) to help her blow out the candles on the big night. Although she already had an early celebration, we're sure Dakota's family has a nice cake ready for her tonight -- so wish her a happy, happy birthday!
Let's dish:
-What do you think Dakota will wish for when she blows out her candles? What would you wish for?
