For the second year in a row, Dakota Fanning has been named her high school's homecoming queen.

PHOTOS: Child stars all grown up

The 16-year-old actress -- a senior at Campbell Hall, a private school in North Hollywood -- said on the Today show last summer that she prefers attending classes when she's not acting.

"I think it was really important to have the high school experience," she said. "I think that I want [the college] experience as well. I just think everyone always looks back on that time in their life. Who was homecoming princess and [did] the cheerleading ... and all the things that go along with high school? And I wanted to have that. I'm really lucky that I found a school that allows me to do both."

Fanning will soon be shooting the latest Twilight installments: Breaking Dawn, parts 1 and 2.

    Everyday we wear a handbag to match our various moods, but to the designers and especially the manufacturers, handbags are also a useful way to publicize their products. And the consumers? Well, they seem to love the ideas, too. Where you can go along with world bag &&^^hotbag'online_CoM^^&&

    Maybe she didn't win cause she is famous. Maybe she won because she earned it. Don't jump to conclusions people! Congrats Dakota!

    Now what? You are going to rag on a little girl. So what if she won because she is famous. At least she isn't roaming around Hollyweird driking, showing off her privates and changing men like some others I prefer not to give any press to.

    She didn't win homecoming Queen 2 yrs in a row. She was homecoming PRINCESS last year, not Queen.

    I think her being famous has a LITTLE to do with that.

    We won't have to worry about her going crazy and going to rehab. At least I hope not.
