Elle Fanning has revealed her secret celebrity crush.
When a guest on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon on Thursday, the 26-year-old actress named the man.
He is 55-year-old comedian Jack Black, star of Jumanji and Kung Fu Panda.
Elle, who is now starring in the Bob Dylan bio-film A Complete Unknow, told Jimmy that she met Jack earlier this year at the Golden Globe Awards and they took selfies together.
‘It has made my life,’ the younger sister of Dakota Fanning said. ‘So, we have a group chat, my sister and all my girlfriends, and it’s basically dedicated to how hot Jack Black is. Like, he is our perfect man. Like, beyond.

She said that she and her older sister Dakota Fanning both think this actor is hot
‘We send each other clips of him all the time, and, like, specifically the saxophone clip from on the show. It’s iconic.’
The blonde, who wore a black off-the-shoulder dress on the late night show, revealed how she ran into Black at the Globes.
Turns out her boyfriend, Rolling Stone CEO Gus Wenner, was with her.
‘We were waiting for our cars at the valet at the same time, and my boyfriend was with me, he was like, ‘Go up to him, go up to him,’ and he convinced me to, and I did. Then my boyfriend yelled to him, he was like, ‘You’re her hall pass, by the way!”
Black was his wife Tanya Haden at the moment.
He laughed and said he ‘loved’ the remark. ‘We were laughing,’ she said. ‘I mean, I was turning bright red. I, like, still am.’
This comes after Elle said she ‘leans on’ her older sister Dakota for support.
The actress found fame alongside her elder sibling in the early 2000s.

They starred in a series of high-profile films.
While both of them have gone on to successful adult careers, she still counts Dakota as her ‘best friend’ whom she goes to for advice on everything, especially as they go into business together.
She told US TV show ‘Extra’: ‘I lean on her the most. She is my best friend, she is my number-one person I go to her for all the advice, for everything.
‘And so I’m very lucky that I have a sister like that.
‘We both understand what each other does and we understand the business, and to have that person, it’s very special.’

‘We created a production company together called Lewellen Pictures where we produce projects together, and we’re going to get to be on a panel to answer questions and to talk about our production company and to talk about the power of sisterhood.’
Meanwhile, Dakota – who starred in ‘I Am Sam’ and ‘War of the Worlds’ as a child before going on to roles in ‘Twilight’ and ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood’ – has talked her early rise to fame.
She said she has been able to stay grounded thanks to the family and friends who surround her.
She said: ‘I just have a really great family and really great fans and people that love me a lot and support me. I’m surrounded by people that want the best for me and also will tell me when I’m wrong.’
