Dakota Foster

The new Gap ad featuring actress Dakota Fanning brings me back to 1980, specifically, May 19, 1980. That's the date when Jodie Foster graced the cover of People Magazine. Dakota looks like a dead ringer for a young Jodie. There's something a little creepy about Dakota Fanning, but now that I see that she looks like J.F., I have a feeling she'll be around for a while.


Jodie Fans: In my search for photos, I came across this site with recordings of Jodie singing two songs for her 1977 film "Moi, fleur bleue." Here's the French version, and here's the English rendition.
