Mummy's little Lolita: The 11-year-old girl whose beauty treatments cost £300 a month to make her look like Barbie
She wore her first set of false eyelashes at eight, and her beauty treatments cost £300 a month. A sick abuse of an 11-year-old? 'No', insists Sasha's mother, 'I just want her to be famous...'
At the tender age of 11, this kid looks like a pre-teen porn star.
In the forthcoming documentary, Jayne takes Sasha to a major agency, in the hope that she will be signed up.
The model booker says a vehement 'no', horrified by her portfolio, and tells Jayne that clients want their child models to look like children, and that for this sort of career success she would have to stop bleaching Sasha's hair and encouraging her to wear plastic nails. Jayne refuses to comply.
Frankly, I want to hose the kid off, dress her in play clothes and tell her to go fall out of a couple trees. I get the feeling mama wants to relive what her childhood should have looked like according to her. Daughter apparently doesn't know there are any other options.
Ask Sasha how she sees herself and she replies: 'Blonde, pretty, dumb - I don't need brains.' Her mum laughs her head off at this, proud that the child is so like her.
Would you want to see a kid raised like this?
Here's another one.

Like any proud mother, Ashley Hughes wants to do the best for her little girl.
She works at five different cleaning jobs to help 15-year-old daughter Emma achieve her dream.
Which is...to be a surgically enhanced glamour model just like Jordan.
Mrs Hughes has provided nothing but support for Emma's ambitions to follow in the footsteps of her improbably-shaped heroine.
She has already spent £15,000 on salon treatments and is putting money aside for a breast enlargement operation for her daughter when she turns 18.
Before that happens she is trying to raise £8,000 for tooth veneers to enhance Emma's smile, while she also pays for weekly pole dancing lessons.
Jesus Christ and his Tympani Five.
I'm so glad my parents are sane.

Date: 2008-07-07 09:04 pm (UTC)No kid should have to put up with such maladjusted people as parents, and no parent should be allowed to force their living-vicariously dreams so viciously on their children.
That said, it is the Daily Mail, and I take every written word in it with a grain of salt the size of Texas. ;)

Date: 2008-07-08 01:16 pm (UTC)Honestly, I hope the kid grows up to be a bleeding-heart eco-conscious bulldyke lesbian who disowns her mother.
She'd have to shave her head, but nothing else. ;)
Mama is definitely living vicariously- she says in there that she didn't get into modeling until she was 23, so she missed the prime years.

It's not healthy, and what the bleeding hell is that poor child's mother thinking? Fame isn't everything, and physical beauty is fleeting and fickle. And without something behind that painted face, she's not going to last - and she isn't going to understand that there are things worth more than what money can buy you.
And for all that female's thing about paedophiles? That's not the biggest concern. Though the child is certainly, if she does achieve the fame her mother wants for her, going to attract her share of crazies. It's not as worrying as the fact that the girl's likely to think of herself, and everyone around her, as a commodity. Worth nothing more than a pretty face and the money you spend.
I... ugh. That woman disturbs me. A lot.

Date: 2008-07-08 01:50 pm (UTC)I think the kid already sees herself as a commodity. What else could she be? I just wonder what adolescence is going to do to her.

Fake tanning at 11. She will look like a prune by 40.

I totally agree. What's she going to do when she gets older? I've seen a number of models who've turned to drink/drugs because they can't handle aging.
And honestly, the kid is cute because little girls usually are, but her sort of looks aren't going to age well, I don't think. Especially with that attitude.

Date: 2008-07-08 06:21 pm (UTC)I wouldn't be surprised. She'll likely be told all through her childhood that looks are paramount. Once they start to go, I assume she'll either blow the bank on plastic surgery, turn to drugs, or, if she's lucky, start using her brains instead. My money's not really on the last option, though.

I shudder to think of the boyfriends she's going to attract 10 years from now.
