In the new issue of Teen Vogue (on stands Nov. 17), Dakota Fanning dishes on her thick-as-thieves relationship with her "New Moon" and "Runaways" co-star Kristen Stewart. After all, starring in two movies together must be like the celeb equivalent of having biology *and* pre-algebra *and* the same lunch period with someone.

She and bestie Kristen Stewart are like rock 'n' roll goddesses, just without the prescribed seediness:
"We became really close, like we'd known each other for our whole lives. We talk all the time ... The relationship that [my and Kristen's 'Runaways' characters] Joan and Cherie have in the script is kind of the one that Kristen and I have in real life, minus the destructive part."

On preparing for her "New Moon" role as the long-staring creeper girl:
"I wasn't in my mirror like 'Zoolander,' doing the Blue Steel! The red contacts were enough. I read all four 'Twilight' books in one week. It's such a phenomenon, and I wanted to be able to say that I was a part of it."

On taking criticism with a grain of "Whatever, I'm, like, still super successful":
"I'm going to get older, and I want to act for the rest of my life — it's what I love — so I have to move forward with my career. The choices that I make might not always please everyone, but I have to do what I feel is appropriate and right for the time."

Dakota's just your regular child star-cum-boring teenager:
"I get my rebellion out through my movies. I'm boring in that way. I enjoy having a normal life."
And how exactly does she keep her life normal? She credits going to a regular ol' L.A. private school:
"I started there in the ninth grade, and they were pretty receptive to me right away. I really wanted a home base, because I feel like no matter how old people are, they remember homecoming. They remember their senior prom. And I really wanted that."
