    I honestly don't give a shiny one whether Amelia is being carried or is in a pushchair.
    I equally don't care whether she's wearing shoes or not.
    What I find utterly despicable is the fact that despite their protestations to the contrary before she was born, her parents are more than happy to hawk her around in an attempt to prolong her father's career.
    And before anyone tries to argue with this, ask yourselves why Amelia's publicity shy mother didn't ask for her daughter's face to be pixelated to protect her privacy.

    Couldn't agree more Az. Despite the argument from some quarters that his career is on the up, he really has nothing left to offer except for selling his kids privacy and I've not seen any evidence that his natural and private fiancée isn't happy to follow in his tailwind.

    I've always said that none of us should be able to pick a celeb kid out of a line up and I stand by that so all of his guff about giving the fans what they want is just hollow BS

    That I can agree with! I've always admired Kate Moss for protecting her daughter in this way.


    :)
    So who should be more worried that we agree - me or you? ;-)
    Give it 5 minutes and we'll be back to beating each other over the head with our virtual handbags.
    Given her very high profile, Kate Moss is just one example of how if you REALLY want to protect your child's right to privacy, you absolutely can.
    And the press will go along with it.
    I can honestly say that the only celeb kids I would recognise are Dolly Reid, the Beckhams and the Price/Andres ( although I have to admit that I wouldn't recognise Jett ).
    I know that some with think it's a bit incongruous to mention the Beckhams and Tangoman in the same context, but the main difference for me is that the Beckham children are known BECAUSE of their parents' fame, and the Price/Andre children are responsible for their parents career.

    This is a good example, Bela. Emily's decision to carry her little one seemed to be seen as very controversial by some. The vast majority of pictures show Harper Beckham being carried but apparently this is totally different. I'm sure if it was Amelia there would be cries of 'why isn't she walking herself or in a buggy?'

    Eh, I'm failing to find crime of the century outrage in the above, just Kat puzzling (and possibly snorting in derision ;-)) over why the baby is always being carried when they *cough* happen to get accidentally papped.

    The prob with PA is that this is what he and his mgt do, set up staged photo opps to push an image in the hope that they'll be picked up by the rags, get them a bit of attention and make a few ££s. So while not every single shot is necessarily posed/laden with intent, so many really are! Look at the narrative - 'Natural mother', 'doting father', and the biggest laugh, 'protective parents'! Protective parents using their child to promote/make money from the only real 'skill' that PA has left in his depleted bag of tricks!

    As Azura said above, were they sincere in wanting to keep their family away from the media and not wanting the child exploited, they could so easily request pixilation.

    But then, arranging staged pics and then requesting pixilation of the subject of the staged pics is not really a goer, is it.

    Also...His album flop, His house price financial loss, His 60mm co presenter Linda Barkers new show, and to top it all off, along comes the much sought after and well liked Rylan :D
    No wonder in that last pic his g/f looks so sad and appears not to be keeping up the happy, happy pretence for him because I bet shes having to deal with it.

    :D I had to laugh at that remark underneath that said he was still a better property developer, than a pop star :D

    So he's selling Andre Towers at a loss then? Hmm.
    Frankly I'm utterly astonished that he's managed to sell it at all, what with all the Sex that must have been going on in there.
    I hope he has the decency to ask someone to give the jacuzzi a good scrub before he leaves.

    Hmmm....
    The 40-year-old singer put the home on the market in May last year to fund a move to a family home in Brighton and a flat in London.
    Why would a devoted family man who loves his children and is fretting so much about being apart from his child that he owns total mediawhoring rights to and private, natural, girlfriend while she's in college and he's on tour need a flat in London?

    That article was from the time before Amelia announced her presence - I read it ages ago. As far as I can remember, the London flat was going to be a possible base for Emily when she did her residency and/or for Pete to use when working in London. That has of course all changed now.

    The singer, 40, is looking for a new family home closer to Brighton, as well as a London flat.
    The properties will need to accommodate the new additions to his family, with girlfriend Emily MacDonagh pregnant with their first child.

    It was maybe this one from May 2013 I was thinking of - in other words, it appears to be an old story updated by the press to suit the current family situation. Who knows if Pete is still planning to buy a flat in London or even move at all just yet:

    I think it's his muscle. To protect him from the ecstatic, weeping, wailing 100/101.

    They are very good friends - the Andres and Gino and his family. Thought you would have known that, given that people here seem such experts on every aspect of Pete's life and relationships ;-)

    Where have I or anyone else claimed to be an expert on Andre's life? Although we probably could given how much of it he shoves in the public eye. Anyway, even if he is bezzie mates with that tit D'Campo my point still stands about it being completely unnecessary to drag his girlfriend and child to a professional engagement for a "catch-up". If they really are BFFs, they could visit any time.

    Now, that made me lol......naughty Azura.

    As for the jacuzzi, l'll bet Gloria has that covered. :D

    I bet she's got herself covered, too. In a Hazmat suit.


    DS won't let me quote Pip's post for some reason, but where precisely was I "outraged" at Amelia being carried, rather than say merely asking the question? We aren't talking about Harper Beckham, which is why I didn't bring her, or any other person we aren't taking about, up. If you really want to know, however, I think she's been shoved in to far too many photo ops as well - turning up at her mum's fashion shows, David being all "caring, handsome daddy" etc, etc.

    As Azura (or maybe Blondie) said above, we shouldn't know what celebrity kids look like - at least not until the kids are grown up enough to choose whether they want to go into show business themselves. Lots of actors/singers who I really like have children, but I couldn't tell you what they look like or even their names, and these are people who are much, much, much more famous than Andre will ever be in his wildest dreams.

    Eh, of course it's his business who he decides to drag along to the studio with him. We can still comment on it, though!! Kat was merely stating her personal opinion that she, as I do, found it rather odd that TM would take his family to see his great mate GIno, at what is essentially his work environment, for a catch up?!! Why not just arrange a more suitable time, when you aren't actually 'working' (and I use that term verree loosely) to socialise with your great friend?

    Nope.
    It's everybody's business.
    And Tangoman made it everybody's business by dragging his fiancee and daughter along with him, and then allowing them to be photographed and having his child's non-pixellated face splashed all over the newspapers.
    Because selling his children is his business. After all, it's how he makes his living.
