最近,法國雜志Cadeaux(《禮物》)的一組封面照片引起了人們的熱議。照片中的模特是個年僅十歲的小女孩,但是與人們普遍印象中的同齡兒童不同的是,封面上這位小女孩斜倚在豹紋枕頭上,涂著紅唇膏,穿深V上衣及細(xì)高跟鞋,表情冷酷地擺出誘人姿勢,性感程度堪與成年模特媲美。據(jù)悉,這位小女孩出生在象牙海岸,是法國模特界的新星,之前曾登上Vogue Enfants(《兒童時尚》)雜志的封面,還被人們拿來與上世紀(jì)六十年代的超級名模碧姬?巴鐸做比較。但是,這組照片的出現(xiàn)引發(fā)了不少組織的抗議。英國“母親聯(lián)盟”發(fā)言人稱,讓一個十歲的孩子化著濃妝、穿著高跟鞋和領(lǐng)口快開到腰部的衣服,這完全剝奪了她單純做一個孩子的權(quán)利;并表示這樣的照片應(yīng)該禁止在英國任何媒體中出現(xiàn)。

The provocative images of Thylane Lena-Rose Blondeau, who is tipped as the next big thing on the fashion scene, are causing a storm of controversy with campaigners furious that a child so young should be displaying the sexual allure of someone twice her age.
Thylane has appeared in numerous campaigns and her image is all over the internet. To date she has an impressive portfolio - the French girl has graced the cover of Vogue Enfants and posed for high-end editorials.
Born in the Ivory Coast, she has already been compared to Sixties siren Brigitte Bardot - who at the age of 15 appeared in ELLE.
But these latest images, complete with heavy make-up and stiletto heels, which appear in French magazine Cadeaux, have brought the issue to a head.
They come in the wake of a recent initiatives to enforce restrictions on the sexualisation of children in the media and sexual content in advertising.
Reg Bailey, Chief Executive of the UK Mothers' Union, was commissioned to conduct the independent review on the pressures faced by children today.
A spokesperson for the Mothers' Union told MailOnline: 'We have grave concerns about the modelling agency who represent Blondeau, which clearly does not know if it represents a child or an adult.
'Photo shoots requiring her, a 10-year-old-girl, to dress in full make-up, teetering heels and a dress with a cleavage cut to the waist across her pre-pubescent body deny Blondeau the right to be the child she is.
'These images would, we hope, post Bailey Review, not pass through the standards of magazines, on street advertising and other media within the UK.'
In the review a survey revealed that 88 per cent of parents agreed that children are under pressure grow up too quickly, with 58 per cent accounting this to celebrity culture.
One blogger said of the images: ‘She is a beautiful little girl, as are all ten year old girls. While I am sure she will make a terrific model someday, I find these pictures beyond disturbing - she is styled way too maturely.’
