Limelight Rookie

She's the newest blogging phenomenon and has taken the fashion world by storm. She's the Style Rookie. She's got over 4 million readers to her blog, and is a very precocious kid.
I must confess Style Rookie has been my guilty pleasure for quite some time now. Now, with her newfound fame, she gets invited to a plethora of events including the NY Fashion Week. What puzzles me is the fact that she's 13.
I remember my 13th year on this planet. It was a far cry from Tavi's life. I don't remember doing anything half as productive as a blog, and I certainly don't remember getting invited to Fashion Week.
After all of this, is she having a normal childhood? I don't want to criticize this matter, and I certainly don't know how her parents raise her.

Do you think it's unhealthy for kids to be exposed to the limelight?

I mean, they've hardly developed their personality(I don't care what you tell me, Tavi is still a kid) and they're just pushed into the fast & furious world of celebrity much too quickly.


Childhood. I guess you've got to take advantage of it while it's still there.
