Dakota Fanning Goes To The Prom
Dakota Fanning, who recently provided the voice of Coraline in the 3D animated film based on Neil Gaiman’s book and who will portray the vampire character Jane in The Twilight Saga: New Moon, got herself all prettied up to attend her high school prom with some of her BFFs … here are a few photos of Dakota in her pink dress:
Apparently, this prom dress was first worn by Dakota on the red carpet for the premiere of Coraline back in February. Recycled dress or not, she looks great in it … and I’m happy to know that she was able to attend her prom like a normal teenage girl. No word on who she took as her prom date but it looks like she was rollin’ with her homettes all night long. My, my … the little ones do grow up very fast, don’t they?

When did she become pretty and not really, really awkward?
April 26th, 2009 at 12:38 pm

I like seeing pics of young stars like this! So many of them go to Hollywood and become successful and forget to be young… it’s nice to see that some of them still manage to have a semi-normal existence on top of a successful career!

faith – remember how many months and years you didnt hear about her ? yeahh her parents or whoever “hid” her away for her awkward teen years.
atleast she can still have a normal teenage life, and i love how she reused the dress, so non-hollywood!

I hope she has a prosperous life, in and out of the spotlight. :)
April 26th, 2009 at 2:00 pm
I literally thought she was still 12.
April 26th, 2009 at 2:15 pm
Last time I checked, prom wasn’t for freshman, but I digress. She looks happy.
April 26th, 2009 at 2:24 pm
She looks absolutely stunning in that first picture.
April 26th, 2009 at 2:36 pm
i like that she can look pretty, but still her age, at the same time.
April 26th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
I wonder how she feels about one of her friends sharing these pics with the world..Hopefully she knew ahead of time and was ok with it! She looks adorable..And I hope her date was that kid with the beanie..He seems like a fun little guy!

PROM!? Is she a senior already? Anyone else feel old??
April 26th, 2009 at 4:17 pm
She’s turning into a really pretty girl. When did that happen?
April 26th, 2009 at 4:41 pm
I am sure she was invited to prom. I bet she’s super popular lol. She has grown into a beautiful young woman. I can’t wait to see her career evolve as she gets older.
April 26th, 2009 at 4:46 pm
I love u and I love ure site, especially cuz you love tori A, godess modern pianist, but this chick’s high school career, is not normal so this is not a normal prom,..at all.
April 26th, 2009 at 4:47 pm
Oh and she was always beautiful too? Don’t be so superficial people, ugh.
April 26th, 2009 at 4:53 pm
Glad to know her prom included the idiot with the long hair who thought it was appropriate to wear a toque to the prom.
April 26th, 2009 at 5:59 pm
She’s my age, and seeing her all grown up makes me wonder where the time has gone. I remember thinking she was the coolest when we were younger, and now she’s grown into a beautiful young woman.
April 26th, 2009 at 6:03 pm
the guy in the beanie looks hilarious. love it!
is it really prom, or is it some other dance? isnt she only a freshman?
April 26th, 2009 at 8:21 pm
Does she go to a really small school or something because it’s usually reserved for seniors?
April 26th, 2009 at 9:31 pm
lol @ Michael, me too!
April 26th, 2009 at 10:00 pm
Prom? Isn’t she like, 14?
April 26th, 2009 at 11:34 pm
I sooo want to hate her. Shes so pretty and talented. I wish she would stay young forever, cause yeah shes bumming us old ppl out.
April 27th, 2009 at 7:17 am

April 27th, 2009 at 8:08 am

[...] for Dakota Fanning having a normal life! Pink is the New Blog has some pictures of her from Prom this weekend. I think it’s awesome she even re-used the [...]

this girl has grown up into a beatiful and fine young woman…and a very talented actress too..pls give her an OSCAR…she deserves it more than anyone does

It really isnt acceptable to be chasing a young girl
around with cameras. The photographer should be
in prison for stalking.

Dakota looks so gorgeous in pink!
April 28th, 2009 at 8:19 am
First, that doesn’t look like Dakota Fanning.
Second, prom is for Juniors and Seniors and Dakota just turned 15 which would make her a freshman.
April 28th, 2009 at 3:09 pm
she looks smoking hot and I’m three times her age!
May 31st, 2009 at 9:38 am
hahaha shes only a freshman! Some lonely senior boy must have asked her!!
