Dakota Fanning movie controversy
Jan. 23 - Child star Dakota Fanning is at the centre of a controversy over her portrayal a girl who is raped in the film 'Hounddog'.
Child actress Dakota Fanning spoke to Reuters at the Sundance Film Festival about her role in the controversial film 'Hounddog', which features a scene in which her character is raped.
Critics have blasted the film, saying that children should not be subjected to engaging in "seamy portrayals" for commercial purposes.
ACTRESSES LIKE JODI FOSTER AND BROOKE SHIELDS PLAYED ROLES AS CHILD PROSTITUTES . bROOKE SHIELDS MOST CONTROVERSIAL MOVIE WAS "BLUE LAGOON" IF ANYONE REMEMBERS THAT ONE.

Show is upsetting local residents
MTV's latest faux-reality semi-scripted hit TV show, Maui Fever, is causing waves of anger across the island by locals who don't think the show accurately portrays life of Maui residents, the AP reports.
The show focuses on a group of good-looking Mainlanders living in Maui. The cameras capture them performing their daily routines, consisting primarily of drinking, hooking up, surfing, hooking up, and drinking while hooking up.
"I thought it was kind of insulting...they just show partying," Abcde Shibao, 16, of Lahaina said. "But (young people are) active in school, community and sports. We do other things besides partying."
Do you care if it's real as long as it's entertaining?

I went to my childrens performance tonight. It was a good show. I am just glad t
that I didnt have to run into people that I did NOT want to talk to. You know how
that goes. Well, anyway their father was the MC for some parts of the show and he
gladly says.. "this is my oldest son Josh" and then when Jake goes on he says, "this
is my younger son Jake" Then when Jordan has to sing a verse by herself he does
not say that his daughter is singing. That bothered me. Why not recognize
ALL of our children?
Well, your fat ass doesnt support any of them so I guess what is the difference?
It makes a difference to me because I dont play favorites. A father should always
feelmore for their daughter because she will be loving and caring.
Well, he is screwing himself over. Growing up, thanks to my mother, I have learned
that negligence is the number one sin!
