DD's reception class have been asked to dress up as "Hollywood Movie Stars" for school next week

[myimaginarychildBernard]

WIBU to send her in like this?

What is your dd's favourite costume? I am sure you can find a Hollywood Disney movie that features a princess in a pink dress. We always find a way...

Wow. Yeah, Hollywood isn't even a geographically separate city. It's a flippin' neighbourhood in Los Angeles.

They really didn't think this one through, did they?

Lindsey Lohan?

I'm not sure what the thought process behind it was.

I'm assuming, as they've said a "movie star" they mean an actual actor rather than a film character.

It would be easier if they'd said a character from a favourite film though.

FFS, I would be really that they think Hollywood is a city and that they think this is a suitable theme for such young kids who won't even care or know much about film stars!

The temptation to send her dressed as something from the most inappropriate film I could think of would be too great for me.

West Hollywood is a city in LA, but 'Hollywood' as such isn't. The is a city of Hollywood in Florida, so send her as a retiree.

FGS whose idea was this?? How on earth do you come up with Hollywood Movie Stars for reception children (or any year for that matter!!)

I would seriously be so tempted to find a pair of hot pants, boob tube, spray tan, loads of make up and thigh high boots/stilettos.

Do Snakes on a Plane!!! I love Snakes on a Plane. Utter madness.

How about the Orang-Utan from Everywhich Way But Loose? - he was a proper star.

Or The Hollywood sign? - it's always starring in the films.

Or one of the velociraptor minor celebs from Jurassic Park?

The gong!

- yes the gong!
Or the man who bashes it! - 'cept he just wears a loincloth doesn't he?

free willy?

Or what about the statue of liberty woman (is she 20th Century Fox or Paramount?)

The White House has had a few parts too ...

Jesse from Toy Story

I think the gong man had harem pants on. Or am I making this up?

I was wary of clicking onto your free willy link, Poppa, but that is very sweet.

You're over thinking!

Sunglasses.

Job done.

But really random request! How many 'movies' (as distinct from cartoons and tv shows) would the average 4 y.o. Have seen anyhow??

Just for Line - can't really tell if he has MC Hammer pants or not!!

Lassie?

It's a bit of a mad idea for a reception class. Dorothy from Wizard of Oz. Or other character.

Salmo, they look quite tight from this angle.

There you go. If anyone has a dropped hem, she'll be the go-to person...
