Dakota Fanning says being called famous sounds “so pretentious”.
The star has been acting since she was five years old.
However, Dakota doesn’t like to think of herself as a celebrity. She admitted she hates discussing and hearing about her own fame.
“Famous just sounds so pretentious. Who am I to call myself that word?” she asked in an interview of the February issue of UK Elle.
The blonde beauty also revealed that she tries not to agonise over what others think about her.
She avoids reading any rumours about herself or comments about her red carpet outfits.
“You can’t worry about what other people think,” she explained. “Especially if you’re a known person or sometimes you won’t be able to get out of bed.”
Dakota also went into detail about her love life.
The 17-year-old admitted she has had “very small experience” with guys. Although she has had boyfriends in the past she is currently single.
“I feel like a lot of people, a lot of girls, take things with guys very loosely, and I’m not like that,” she declared. “I mean, my parents have known each other since second grade and they’ve been married for 22 years. I don’t need to be courted, but sometimes it’s nice, a little bit of that.”
