> [@Simplicio](#): > > You said she was being hypocritical, that bringing the kid to the event was somehow in conflict with her saying the meat industry was similar to the holocaust. Her animal rights beliefs may be wrong, or she may have been wrong to bring the kid to the fashion show thingy, but the two things aren’t incompatible, she’s not being a hypocrite (unless she made a cheeseburger out of the kid afterwords). Baseless charges of hypocrisy seem to be some sort of default attack for the lazy. It’s annoying. > > But in any case, It’s a little tacky (by design, I imagine), but my parents dragged me to plenty of events I didn’t want to go when I was nine, didn’t hurt me any. per the article, the kid didnt have a seat and spent the time crouching at her feet. I would guess that your parents got you a seat of your own? ---

Yeah, the crouching is weird. If she were her assistant, I’m sure she’d have gotten her a seat. And if she made her assistant crouch, that would be really creepy. ---

the real crime here is that dress she’s wearing. Looks like a roll of paper towels sloppily draped and held together with tape and diaper pins. Hideous! ---

Seriously. There is not a single good thing about that dress. The little girl is actually the prettiest part of that ensemble. And honestly, if we go by the classic advice “get rid of one accessory before you leave the house”, I’d prefer that she keep the little girl and put her crotch away. ---

Big deal. For all we know the little girl thought it was an honor, like being a flower girl in a relative’s wedding or whatever. For that matter, we don’t know what kind of relationship she and Pamela Anderson have. Maybe she’s like an aunt to her. In any case I think the OP needs to direct his outrage at something that’s actually ya know, outrageous (although I agree, that dress is truly heinous)as this pitting was not very recreational. ---

Would it help the OP to know that Anderson was almost definitely paid tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars for her appearance, some of which may have gone to this little girl’s college fund (the rest to cocaine)? No? ---

> [@salinqmind](#): > > “Robert Bork’s soiled underpants”??? Huh? You must mean “Rush Limbaugh’s soiled underpants”. Limbaugh doesn’t have a pervert beard like Bork does/did. Also Bork probably has less laundry money so his underpants are probably all kinds of unwashed and disgusting. Say what you want about Limbaugh, he seems the type to at least wash his clothes. ---

Omigod.

> [@FoieGrasIsEvil](#): > > Yeah, she may have even learned something from the experience. How “not to be”. It just bothers me that since this girl’s mom seems to work for Anderson, it’s not like the little girl can yell at her or be snarky the way she could if it was some random actress coming up to her asking her to sit on the floor. ---

In my days the ultimate fashion accessory was Little People with[permanent smiles](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comprachicos)cut into their face. Then it became the digital watch- younger people have no idea how expensive and trendy those were originally; we traded ‘Littlejack’ for one that also had a calculator. ---

Maybe the kid didn’t have a seat because Pamela Anderson didn’t realize she was going to need someone to carry the train on her dress until she got there and by luck her employee’s daughter happened to be there. And of course she couldn’t just stand - she’d block people’s views. I do find it kind of strange that Anderson didn’t even bother to learn the girl’s name. And that dress is seriously ugly. Adelaide looked quite nice, though (oh, the irony). Cute kid. ---

No? If the little girl keeps getting gigs like this, she’s going to need a cocaine fund too. Really, stoned to the gills is the only way I could get through a humiliation like that.
