Thylane Blondeau denies surgery rumors, ‘Most Beautiful Girl’ speaks

“My mother said, ‘No, she doesn’t work at an agency, she can’t do this,’” Blondeau, the daughter of French soccer star Patrick Blondeau and TV host Veronika Loubry, recalled in 2018.

“After Gaultier insisted and said, ‘She MUST be there tomorrow,’” her mother relented.

Soon, Blondeau was regularly working for top brands including Miu Miu, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Ralph Lauren and Hugo Boss.

But at the age of 10, she became embroiled in controversy after wearing heavy makeup, a red dress with revealing cutouts, diamond jewelry and stilettos as she posed suggestively on a tiger skin rug in Vogue Enfants.

Critics mentioned the sexualization of children in the media.
