The nominations for the Foxy Bingo Mum of the Year are as follows:

Abbey Clancy
Amanda Holden
Charlotte Church
Chole Simms
Denise Welch
Danielle Lloyd
Holly Willoughby
Nicola McLean
Katie Price
Kym Marsh
Louise Mensch
Natalie Cassidy
Natasha Giggs
Jennifer Ellison
Peaches Geldof
Samantha Cameron
Stacey Solomon
Victoria Beckham

I do not see what any of these women have done to deserve it. But Natasha Giggs in particular has cheated on her husband and father of her children so it is particluarly distasteful that she should be up for this prestigous honour.

I can't think of anything any of them have done to deserve the title apart from give birth. What a ridiculous list. In fact, what a ridiculous award.

I don't think the foxy bingo mum of the year is a prestigious honour Hmm

BabeRuthless · 02/03/2012 11:57

Prestigious? Really?

PuffPants · 02/03/2012 11:58

Ditto Natalie Cassidy - bringing her abusive ex-partner back into her daughter's life - good on her, give her a medal.

w3dnesday · 02/03/2012 11:58

has Peaches Geldof even given birth yet?

Firawla · 02/03/2012 11:59

From that list it really just looks like they think of anyone vaguely famous with a kid and then shove them on the list! but yanbu if this person has cheated it does not make her a good mum, really bad example for the children

Frontpaw · 02/03/2012 12:01

Peaches Geldof has a child?

Previous mums of the year have been Kerry catona and Sharon Osborne, so I think that I would be offended or be nominated!

Cherriesarelovely · 02/03/2012 12:01

what an absolute load of bollocks! Is she "attractive"? That'll be it then! Our society is obsessed with flipping yummy mummys!

VivaLeBeaver · 02/03/2012 12:03

I didn't think Peaches Geldof had given birth yet?

Natalie Cassidy has let her her abusive, violent partner back in her life. Good example to her dd, not.

Denise Welsh? Really?

Shock
ShatnersBassoon · 02/03/2012 12:06

Maybe they all play Foxy Bingo as well as being mothers? Victoria Beckham definitely does.

PurpleRomanesco · 02/03/2012 12:10

Prestigious honor? I have a mug that says "Mum of the year" that is more prestigious than this nonsense.

ShirleyKnot · 02/03/2012 12:11

You lost me at Foxy Bingo Mum of the Year.

Butkin · 02/03/2012 12:15

Tells you all you need to know about the Foxy Bingo brand...

ChaosTrulyReigns · 02/03/2012 12:18

Paw paw mylene.

PatriciaHolm · 02/03/2012 12:19

"Foxy Bingo Mum of the Year" = "MILF who just might get her baps out for a FoxyBingo ad if we flatter her insanely with a patently stupid award"

PatriciaHolm · 02/03/2012 12:20

Er - with the probable exception of Samantha Cameron, I suspect....

ShirleyKnot · 02/03/2012 12:20

That Fox off Foxy Bingo is the most sinister thing since nosybonk.

I just snorted tea at this Grin

MarquiseOfMelburnia · 02/03/2012 12:22

The words "foxy" and "bingo" should not appear in the same sentence. Eyes down, indeed.

ICanTuckMyBoobsInMyPockets · 02/03/2012 12:24

That's just a list of celebs with children?

dancingonthinice · 02/03/2012 12:25

Ridiculous. Mum of the year, ha. Hmm

MrsMumf · 02/03/2012 12:26

Why do Foxy Bingo have a MOTY award? Jeez.

JimmyChooChoo · 02/03/2012 12:50

She must be shagging the judges too

mysteryfairy · 02/03/2012 12:57

Pretty depressing to realise that out of that short list I'd have to choose Samantha Cameron.

Mind you not as depressed as she might feel if she saw the list.

bochead · 02/03/2012 13:05

There are some Mums over on the SEN board who I would nominate for Mum of the year, the mountains they are climbing on a daily basis are so steep, yet they retain their sense of humour and are always willing to help others in circumstances that would break most of us. They aren't celebs though.

This is a list of famous women who have given birth NOT a reflection of parenting skills in anyway so is a bit pointless. The list is hardly inspirational is it?

Katie Price as she does a lot behind the scenes for kids with disabilities (have met her and was very impressed by her dedication & how she interacted with kids).

Charlotte Church cos after the NOW stuff and the humilation of her Baby Daddy's antic's on the tv show the batchelor the gal needs a boost.
