Fanning in Fetu?

LOS ANGELES, CA – Just weeks after securing the contractual rights to a still underdeveloped, yet destined to be famous Fanning embryo, Grooved Shoulder has learned that Lions Gate Film Studio is now on the verge of subtracting a member of the gifted acting family from future projects.

After scandalous pictures surfaced on the internet last week depicting child actress Elle Fanning, 10, as a brainless fetus in fetu-like parasitic twin living off fellow actress and sister Dakota’s “host” body, Lions Gate executives are prepared to terminate her contract with the studio as soon as Tuesday.

Parasitic twins occur when a twin embryo begins developing in utero, but the pair does not fully separate. Usually, one embryo maintains dominant development at the expense of the other.

“Undeveloped twin’s like Elle are defined as parasitic because they are incompletely formed or wholly dependent on the body functions of the complete fetus–hence they grow so large that it starts to harm the host, at which point doctors usually intervene,” says Dr. Robert Connolly, a reproductive endocrinologist who did not treat the star.

In response to the rumors, Fanning representatives have threatened legal action against the studio, condeming Lions Gate as “reinforcing outrageously false and cruel lies against a minor.”

Insiders, however, see it different.

“With Elle, the lights are on but nobody’s home,” says a acting pal. “Anyone who’s taken the time to run lines with her knows she’s a glorified tick.”

“She’s literally sucked the life out of Dakota for years, so I’m glad it’s finally come to light.”

What makes the Fanning case even more intriguing is that if Elle, 10, is indeed a paracitic twin, it would make her the same age as her sister Dakota, 14.

“If they did their homework on Elle they would have learned that only months prior to signing she’d just been carved away from her sister’s body,” said a source close to both sisters.

“Lions Gate only saw green with Elle, so it’s their own damn fault.”
