10 yr old Vogue Model

The other day i was on yahoo's homepage and in the news feed this picture popped up of a 10 yr old posing like a grown woman. Her name is Thylane loubry blondeu and she has already posed in vogue and walked the runway for Jean Paul Gautier at age 5. This made me think of the Codes of Gender video and how girls are becoming highly sexualized at a young age. She has been photographed in many seductive poses and even going as far to be photographed topless. Soon models over the age of 16 will be out of jobs. I think this is crazy and don't know who would let their children pose in these seductive ways.

  1. I saw this too!!! The whole posing topless thing is insane. Like who are her parents!?!? I would never in a billion years rob my child from a childhood which is exactly what has happened to that poor little girl. Just crazy. The modeling industry has a good side and a bad one. This is the lowest of the low right here.

  2. I am appalled at this genre of photography. I remember seeing thong underwear for 5-8 year olds.... i literally flipped out. It's taking the pageant freak moms to a whole new level.
