Positing that the public might be growing tired of the Lohan/Hilton/Spears class of troubled starlet and that the industry is ready to pump out a more wholesome, less frequently rehabbed product to capture the tween entertainment dollar, the LAT looks at the "new wave" of Hollywood good girls, including Nancy Drew's Emma "Aunt Julia Would Produce My Movies Even If We Weren't Related" Roberts, Nim's Island's Abigail Breslin, and the Charlize Theron-approved AnnaSophia Robb. The article's true focus is the impeccably pedigreed, terrifyingly ambitious Roberts, who's so precocious she's already bored with the whole imminent movie stardom thing:

"I want to do a fashion line too, but not an 'Emma' fashion line," she said, clicking through her mental check list. "I want to do a real fashion line and sell it out of a boutique in Barneys or Neiman's. Like Mary-Kate and Ashley's line [the Row] but a really cool line of jeans or maybe dresses like [British pop singer] Lily Allen. [...]

And the teen who plays her is smart enough to know that to have the career she envisions, she'll need to move beyond the roles of nice girls in small movies. For a start, she'd like to do a horror movie, she says, and a comedy. Further down the line, "I would really like to own my own production company some day," Roberts mused. "I read scripts that I'm not right for, but I would still like to see the movie get made. I would love to produce."

While a part of us wants to believe that Roberts' royal bloodlines afford her some sort of immunity to the problems that have plagued Lohan (and, for that matter, one of her beloved Olsens), we fear that her combination of ambition, intellect, and genes will merely serve to make her into some kind of super-hellion when she succumbs to Hollywood's inescapable temptations. Perverting the detective skills she learned on the Drew set, she'll infiltrate Hyde and Teddy's at a younger age than her dimmer predecessors, and always be one step ahead of the bumbling authorities desperate to take her down; just when the cops think they've finally caught up to her, they'll discover that the unconscious, underaged actress slumped behind the wheel of Roberts' freshly crashed Mercedes is in fact Dakota Fanning, then shake a frustrated fist in the air, knowing their formidable adversary has once again slipped through their grasp.
