New ten year old French model Thylane Blondeau

2011-08-22T02:32:00.002+01:00

Thylane Blondeau is a child been talked about all over the world. At the of ten, yes just ten, she has already graced the pages of french vogue and many more ad campaigns. I was shocked to see some pictures of her in a very controversial fashion shoot for vogue where she is sprawled out wearing a full face of make-up and sky scraping heels. In others she is seen looking in the mirror or posing while stroking a rabbit.
Personally, I think ten years old is far too young to be modelling, especially when they are made to look like adults. But I must admit she is a very cute child!
the pictures above are some of the pictures from the photo shoot and others that have caused controversy. leave your opinion below in the comments... i would really like to know what everyone else's views are on this
