Trashy magazine rubbish

So I was reading a really trashy magazine, That's Life. There is a story about a woman who enters her baby in beauty pageants.

This section had me laughing:

"With a price tag of £125, it wasn't cheap. But my baby deserved the best, especially if she was going to win. I'd always bought Cassius and Autumn beautiful designer clothes, so spending a small fortune on additions to their wardrobes was second nature. I refused to dress my lad in track suits or my little girl in jeans or leggings. So tacky"

Erm...

I'm sure the irony was totally lost on her.

these mags have gone down hill in the past few years with lurid stories if the covers are anything to go by, i'm sure some of it is made up to sell the rubbish in the first place.

You can make anything up to get your 5 minutes of fame in these type of magazines... in all seriousness, beauty pageants for toddlers are tacky as fuck. They're not dress-up dolls for goodness sake.

I read that story this week as well although I think it was in Take a Break (I only buy that for the Top TIps section Grin)

Haha not read a good trash magazine in ages .

I used to buy one called STAR (a good 10 or so years ago) ..Is that still going ?

I read that story too,

The "tacky" thing was lost on her

I hate leggings on little girls, I don't think they're tacky though
