SCREW YOU, RICHARD HORGAN OF FILMSTEW

Just a few words before I go on set to my new movie about the two little Aryan girls named Prussian Blue (not sure what it's about yet, but my mother says I could probably win an Oscar for it! Exciting!).

How dare you Richard Horgan of Filmstew.

How dare you say my movie Hounddog is in such pour taste and that I desecrated the image of Elvis Pressley and that I might as well have gone to England and get ganged raped by The Beatles. How rude!

Just because my acting skills are so advanced that I am able to be fake-raped on camera so convincingly, doesn't mean you have to trash my mom, my agent, and my film. You're being a hater. Do you know what a hater is? A hater is somebody who trashes a young girl for having the balls to be fake-raped on camera.

I may not win an Oscar for my film, but gosh am I going to win the hearts of all the young actresses out there who want to make something of themselves.

Actors have to be fearless. They have to be superhuman. They have to take chances.

Jodie Foster played a prostitute when she was a young girl. Halie Joel Osment played a dead kid. Drew Barrymore played a 9-year-old drunkard who saw aliens.

I am playing a girl who likes Elvis and gets raped.

I'm just part of a long line of actors who took a chance for their art.

That's all people expect of us, Richard. That's all I expect of myself. Any other young actress would feel the same.

Off to the set...

Hello, World!

My name's Dakota Fanning. I'm an actress who's currently trying to get her movie bought at Sundance Film Festival. It's called Hounddog (which is funny because I LUV dogs!) The movie's causing kind of a raucous right now because I get brutally raped in the film. I really don't see the big deal about children getting raped on film. IT'S ONLY A MOVIE PEOPLE!

Anyway...just testing this blogger thing out to make sure it works. Can any of you see this?
