Dakota Fanning Doing Cherry Bomb - The Video!
You might have already heard Dakota Fanning sing Cherry Bomb for The Runaways movie, and now here's the visual to along with it. Yay? Nay.
It might make you feel a little uncomfortable since Dakota is wearing one of Noah Cyrus' favorite outfits and behaving like that hardcore rock star known as Taylor Momsen.
This is basically what it looks like when your little cousin (the one who always rolls her eyes at you) plays Rock Band without parental supervision.
Here's The Runaways doing Cherry Bomb in 1976 if you're feeling the need to compare:


Hmmm...Dakota and Kristen definitely "seem" too young in the roles. Even though the members of the real band may not have been much older, they have a much more adult vibe.
The movie actresses are kids but this clip makes it really obvious. :-p
I honestly think they are both too young for these parts! I mean look at the real video! They look like real grown women!!
The Runaways? They weren't relevant enough to warrant a movie to be made about them. They sucked when they were new, and now 34 years later they're just a group of hasbeens. But, the video from the movie is way better than they ever sounded live and that's not a compliment. Straight to video by June.
Its a PediBear Trap!

Seriously I love this actress and am astounded every time I see her amazing trans-formative rolls she takes on.
She is one of a kind and one of the few child stars that still has their head on straight.
And a good 10 years before Madonna wore underwear on stage. Is there nooone who Madge HASN'T ripped off?

Though I think some of the views are very extreme over there, there's something that rings true to me over there: something is up with the entertainments industry.
***********************************************************
NO...some of the stuff on there is just way to bizarre, like lizard people. I am not part of that frame of mind, just to crazy. What I am is sociologically aware of what is going on in the media and I keep up with obscure real news that does not get much time becuase it takes to many brain cells to figure out for average news intake. You just have to be mindful on what is going on around you then you can start seeing the patterns & connections everywhere. It is really scary, you wonder what happens to all those children on the front of the milk cartons..they just don't all vanish. Many end up in the child sex trade rings being conducted right under our noses by many of the people who are in "charge", elite scum. So many things get swept under the rug, and then everyone wonders why so much sex is being pushed to young women & men on ads, magazines, videos, etc. etc.. then young women are questioned and punished when then end up in pornos...it is fucking crime & no one gives a fuck for the fact that these same young women have been systematically abused by everything around them so they end up in such things, Lolita programing is everywhere, it is to the point where they don't even try to hide it anymore.
I sometimes read http://pseudoccultmedia.blogspot.com/
the writer is pretty much a cultural critic who points many of the things I have just described but even to a crazy deeper level, again some of the things is way to bizarre but when you connect the dots they start creating a picture of a even bigger picture. You people have seen "Eyes Wide Shut", right...the shit is pretty much on point but that was just the tame shit
This song was written for Cherie Currie when she was not quite 16. So it's not weird for Dakota to be playing her, since she just turned 16. I think Dakota did a pretty good job with the song. No, she doesn't sound exactly like Cherie, but she still sounds good. I think the movie will be great. Dakota is an awesome little actress.

P.S. You all "disgusted" obviously are too young to appreciate Jodie Foster as a hooker in "Taxi Driver" at AGE THIRTEEN.
**********************************
Yeah. And lil Dakota seems (so far) to have the same common sense with which Jodie has led her life...and quite successfully. Dakota I can believe in. Kristen's not gonna last. It's so obvious she's already cracking under the pressure.

P.S. You all "disgusted" obviously are too young to appreciate Jodie Foster as a hooker in "Taxi Driver" at AGE THIRTEEN. She went on to become one of the most successful actresses of our time. Dakota Fanning is merely acting, surrounded by adults and family during shooting. And she knows the difference.
Miss Stewart could use some acting advice from Dakota Fanning: stop getting so fucking stoned and appreciate what's been given to you, and A-C-T. Or give it up. I'm disappointed in Joan Jett's choice in who plays her. Dakota would've kicked her ASS playing her, instead. I hope Dakota's up for an Oscar for this biopic!
Contrary to popular belief, the movie isn't supposed to be Joan's story. It's based on Cherie's autobiography Neon Angel.
Everyone just needs to chill; disturbed by a responsible 15+-year-old playing a raucous 17-year-old who ran away to join one of the most awesome female rockers in history, who just delivered an acting rape scene in "Hound Dog"? Priorities, people. Priorities.
Also goes to show: our generation spent time making music, not copying past bands and shooting up schools. I think if we bring heavy eyeliner and feathered hair back to the world, we'd all get along like we did before 1990.
First - Dakota is an awesome actress so of course you know she's going to do a good job
Second - FUCK NO! I don't wan't shit to do with this soft core kiddy porn. This shit is fucking gross and it makes me want to puke! This is the little baby from I am Sam. She is NOT allowed to make out with dudes in a red jumper or writhe on the stage in lingerie. I forbid it!!!!

This is fucking disturbing!! It's weird to see Dakota sexing up, 'cause I remember her like A CHILD ...The video looks really good, and Cherry Bomb!!!! chheeeeerrry... I also love to see my bitchface (KStew) as a lesbian lover, 'cause at least in the movie she is hitting something more exciting that Magical Forest Unicorn Prince and his limp dick...Dakota, oh bitch you make me feel like a fucking golden girl

As for this? It does look like a Taylor whatever performance.
I think Ms. Fanning does a fine job and is probably the highlight of this film, if Ms. Stewart's turn in Twilight is an overall indication of her abilities as an actress.
Like Jason Gordon Levitt I think Ms. Fanning is transitioning into adult roles very well.

Thank you! I can not believe people are not at all disturbed by this! Little history lesson, The Runaways were sexualize and used by the rock N roll/music industry, in turn to sell records.They were pushed as young girls to turn to drugs and rock n roll. Now, in the guise to tell a story that "needs" to be told.. We are seeing a very young girl just turning into a teenager being sexualized in the same manner. It is disgusting. A little background on Miss Fanning, her baby sister and her were "discovered" at a Christian Convention shindig, perfect poster child for the evangelical right wing nut jobs, basically a bunch of perverts. She and others are complete slaves to a pedophile elite that runs the media,Hollywood,government, etc.... and your dollars feed that by going to see such trash. Open your eyes wider people and stop being so blinded by what is being force fed as "NORMAL", it is not normal for such a young girl to be spreading her legs for the camera, even if it is a movie it is still a reality that Dakota is being completely exploited sexually. Fucking wrong! To top it off it keeps the message out there "Hey young girls it is ok & cool to completely sexualize your young body" you know as long as your making art or some money.....so fucking wrong... that is why I plan on not having any kids in this world we live in.
I so can't wait to see this movie!
Okay, I just watched it. I can hardly believe that's Dakota Fanning. I really want to see this movie now.
The original Cherie Curie does sound like a man. LOL

this looks interesting. for anyone who wants to see the film, they may want to watch this docu as well: http://www.amazon.com/Edgeplay-About-Runaways-Lita-Ford/dp/B00061QJ58/re...

Yep, I have to agree, Taylor Momsen would have been perfect as Cherie. Personally, I like what little bit of Taylor's music that I've heard. I like her voice, though I can't believe that she is so young when I hear it.
I thought she did pretty good except the voice isn't as low. She looks somewhat like Cherrie Currie.
Obviously since it's a drama and not a musical, they cast an actress for the part. Casting one of today's pop stars in the role would have made the whole thing laughable and let's face it, with Kristen Stewart playing one of the leads, they're going to need all the help they can get acting wise from the rest of the cast.
I like Dakota Fanning sooo much better than that Taylor Momsen twat I see running around getting her pictures taken everywhere.
Lita Ford's always looked older than dirt. Just saying.

I remember seeing Cherie Curry and The Run Aways when I was in junior high.
Is Dakota 18 yet?
agreed, madam. & jcm, it's called seniority & dakota has it. i mean she was on oprah when she was like 5 or something. i think that taylor chick would have been a better choice as well.
& yes, this is a vehicle for dakota. it started as one for kristen, but again 'seniority'. once dakota signed on, it was all about dakota. i love how hollywood force feeds the public with their politics & entertainment & art suffers because of it.
---------------------------------------------------
Maybe they changed the focus from K Stew to Dakota Fanning when they realized Stewart has no actual talent and her range is "mildly constipated to very constipated."
I just can't with Dakota Fanning. I still see her as that sweet little girl.
WHORE!
Oh my god, that movie looks terrible on every count. At least in a couple of quick shots that Kristen girl looked like Joan Jett. Dakota Fanning is FAIL... she just looks like the silly L.A. cheerleader that she is. It's like the Nickelodeon after-school special version of The Runaways.

FIST PUMP!!
Hope is the last thing to die...
Everytime I see a trailer from this film, I ask why, why, why didn't they get Taylor Momsen to play Cherrie Currie....Taylor looks more like Cherrie and sings more like Cherrie....Dakota is not as hot and her voice is too high....Is there a good explanation for this??...
am i the only person who thinks she does a horrible job? she seems to be playing dakota the rock star not cherie currie. cherie had a rough naughty fun presence. dakota seems like a serious innocent, not nailing the experienced naughty lolita that cherie was. kristen, on the other hand, seems to nail the serious tough girl joan was. people bag on kristen for her role in twilight, but she was brilliant in 'into the wild'. i think people neglect to acknowledge she is indeed a serious capable actress with lots of potential. i think she's better than dakota.
---------------------------------------------------
Yeah Dakota sounded like a bad Chipette singing that song. The original singer had a MUCH lower voice.
I was kinda surprised when I played the 1976 version, almost sounded like a man singing. Kristen doesn't seem she's a very good actress, Dakota might be a different story though.

I had to laugh though, I though Madonna was the first to sing and dance in her panties on stag
*********************************
Actually, Madonna was a total fan. One of her first arguments with the music people (musicians and business men alike) who worked with her was that sugary sweet pop music was NOT the way to go. That punk and hard rock was what people were going to be after.
Then she went to France and did some disco shit they loved and forgot all about that argument.

i thought it was a pretty good, accurate rendition with the exception that Cherrie has a much lower voice than Dakota.
This might actually be worth watching.

While I like Dakota since she was a little one...but to compare, thats a fucking joke.
Thıs ıs obvıously meant to be Daktoa's fırst foray ınto more adult subject matter and from that clıp I must say that I lıke. I am prayıng she does not end up the Hoan route because she ıs talented.
Dakota wıll be on broadway soon, sluts. Mark my words.
Krısten Stewart wıll never do ıt for me.

Is it just me, or does the older Dakota get, the worse she gets at acting? She was a brilliant child actor, but she seems like she is trying to hard now lately. She definitely does not do a convincing shoulder/titty shake. I think she's too young for this role.
PUSH = Worst movie from the past few years

Strong enough for a woman, but made for a man.
After seeing this clip, I might actually go see the film.
I'm surprised, it didn't suck. I might see this movie.
loved Foxes.

Archie: No, no, no, NO. Come on, do it properly, with the back of the right hand.
This is actually getting pretty good reviews and i hear Stewart did a pretty good job....
i will see this cuz i am curious.
I'm on board with this one. Yeah, it's weird to see the Dakota Fanning acting all sexy, but I think she does a good job. And as much as I'm anti-Twilight movie, I have to give some snaps to that pothead girl for looking pretty Joan Jett-ish.
Anyone else see the Jodie Foster = Dakota Fanning resemblance?

Joan Jett is my time but now I remember why I wasn't into her. ~yawn~
The Runaways were much more hard core than the movie is making them out to be. Now, I'm glad that Dakota is getting this kind of break out role (she's not a little girl anymore), but they should have just dubbed her because Cherri Currie had a much deeper voice. They weren't trying to be girls, they were trying to be rockers.
