Need to get the Weed'n'Feed, the Bindi's back.

Oh. Dear. God.

Bindi strikes again

Bindi Irwin has launched her international modelling and fashion career.
Carrying a python, Bindi strutted down the "crocwalk" at the world's largest fashion trade show in Las Vegas on Monday, wearing clothes from her Bindi International fashion line... The fashion line is dubbed clothing with a conscience and is designed for newborns to 10-year-olds.


I know that Bindi-bagging is all the rage right now, but seriously? The girl is 9 years old and she's been pimped to such an extreme level that I think something needs to be done about it. All this garbage about her being 'just a normal kid' and being able to 'stop whenever she wants' is just bullshit. Utter utter bullshit.

What normal mother thinks that this is an OK way for a normal balanced child to be raised? And don't give me this twaddle about her being 'super-special and super-intelligent'. It's just wrong, and as a parent it pisses me off.

And also: what's the bet all this clothing is being made in China, hardly known for World's Best Practise when it comes to 'conscience' of any variety - environmental, humane - anything!

Urgh - girlfriend just creeps me the hell out. She's not even pretty, and I thought that was kind of a given for any prospective 'international module'... Sorry, it may seem off picking on the kid, but take it to her Management - they're responsible...

She was fathered by Steve Irwin - you can't possibly expect her to be "balanced" can you? I'd say her mother is doing a pretty good job so far of stifiling that croc hunter gene she is carrying.

Besides, the way things are going, in 10 years time we'll all be able to watch her handling an entirely different python when she stars in David Duchovney's latest skin-epic on Channel 10. After all, if the little kid from The Nanny can do it....

Hee Meva, I got what you meant the first time... not a fool, just someone who thinks faster than they type. Like me!

Mex - you could well be right. There's just *something* off-putting about her. Someone said she looked like a gelfling, but I'm not sure...

Donnie - huh? That's balanced?
But you're right, who knows where she's going to end up? trouble is, the car-crash will be viewed by billions, poor chicken.
