Cheerleading Dakota Escapes Pap Rally

Posted Sep 26th 2008 4:30PM by TMZ Staff

Ready? OK! Who'd have thought the quirky little girl from "I Am Sam" would grow up to be a high school cheerleader?
Dakota Fanning: Click to watch
For some reason we asked her to bust out a routine right there in the airport ... and while anybody else probably would've just given us the spirit finger, Dakota rejected the ridiculous offer in such a nice way, she left us cheering for her.

3. I hate to say it "Dallas" but...

She's still young.

Look at Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears now...

And look at how they use to be back in the Freaky Friday and Mickey Mouse club days.

5. Man, that cameraman is such a tool! Stumbling over his own words, just idiotic. She was a sweetheart for tolerating his irritating and stupid questions.

10. Your DC Pap scares the crap out of me. He asks bad questions and freaks people out. Bottom of the barrel perhaps?

11. It would have been great if airline security tasered that dumb ass pap. KEEP your paps AWAY from the children, TMZ.

12. It is great to see her experiencing 'normal' teen things like cheerleadering. She was so gracious! She could teach a few adults a thing or too.

13. Leave the poor girl alone, I know shes nice and all. But shes just a kid She doesnt need to be harrased by an OLDER man! When shes 21 then you can STALK her and cause her to do drugs and party.
