Elle Fanning believes that striving to be “perfect” drives girls insane.

According to Female First, the 18-year-old claims that girls her age work too hard to be perfect and attractive, but end up ruining themselves in the process.

“People’s obsession with beauty and perfection, it can really destroy you and wanting perfection it’s like ‘But what is perfection?’ It doesn’t exist. Perfect doesn’t exist, so you drive yourself crazy wanting it,” Fanning said, according to bangshowbiz.com.

Dakota Fanning’s younger sister landed a part as a teenage model in the horror film ‘The Neon Demon,’ in which she is pursued by her jealous peers.

And Elle believes the plot is based on real-life experiences of how ladies sometimes treat one another, particularly online.

“A little bit yeah!” she said when asked if ladies can be so “mean” in real life. “I think so, I mean especially on social media and where you can hide behind your phones and be kinda catty, so yeah it does.”

Jesse, played by Elle, goes from a tiny village to Los Angeles in the film, where she is savagely turned on after taking the fashion industry by storm.

The actress claimed she could identify with the role since she, too, had relocated from a small town to Los Angeles and had experienced what it was like to be “fresh meat on the scene”

“Being the fresh meat on the scene, I think I can understand that aspect of her,” she said at the film’s premiere at London’s Curzon Mayfair. ” I mean it was a little different for me but at the same time, very not different, because I played a 16 year old girl, who kind of comes from a small town to the big city, which is what I did. I’m from Georgia and I moved to LA and started doing film so we’re similar in a way but we didn’t let that world devour us, I mean my character goes to a much darker place than I have.”
