I’m injecting my eight-year-old with Botox and getting her body waxes so she’ll be a superstar

Mummy's girl ... Kelly with daugther Britney



LIKE other eight-year-old girls, Britney Campbell loves dancing to Lady GaGa, is fond of fashion and enjoys putting on make-up.

But Britney's beauty regime goes way beyond playing with Mummy's lippy.

Once every three months, Britney climbs on a beautician's table and
watches as mum Kerry prepares needles of Botox and fillers to be
injected into her face.

Beautician Kerry, 34, from Birmingham, buys the substances online and
injects them into her daughter's forehead, lips and around her eyes.

The beauty-pageant obsessed single mum also takes her to have her body
waxed, in a bizarre bid to stop her growing hair when she eventually
hits puberty.

Kerry says these shocking and potentially dangerous treatments will guarantee Britney becomes famous as a teenager.




Poke her face ... Kelly injects Lady GaGa fan Britney with Botox



She says: "What I am doing for Britney now will help her become a star.

"I know one day she will be a model, actress or singer, and having
these treatments now will ensure she stays looking younger and
baby-faced for longer.

"I'm sure people reading this will think I am being irresponsible, but
I ensure that I test the Botox and fillers I buy online on myself
first.

"All I want is for Britney to have the best start in life, so it is easier for her to become a superstar.

"More mothers should do it for their daughters."

Kerry is proud Britney is one of the youngest children in the world to have Botox injections and fillers for beauty purposes.

Despite doctors and plastic surgeons recommending Botox only be used by adults, Kerry claims Britney is in no danger.

Kerry, who also regularly administers Botox and fillers on herself,
says: "I'm proud Britney is getting to have these beauty treatments at
such a young age.

"I wish that I'd had the same advantages when I was younger.

"She is a lucky little girl and is going to be famous because of the benefits I am giving her so early."

Worryingly, Britney - whose research scientist dad died four years
ago aged 83 - regards the injections and waxing as part of normal life.

She demands the top-ups of Botox, complaining she can see wrinkles.




Fame-hungry ... Kelly wants little Britney to be a star



Britney says: "My friends think it's cool I have all the
treatments and they want to be like me. I check every night for
wrinkles, when I see some I want more injections.

"They used to hurt, but now I don't cry that much.

"I also want a boob and nose job soon, so that I can be a star."

Shockingly, Kerry, who now lives in San Francisco is not alone in her quest to make her daughter wrinkle-free for life.

This behaviour is becoming a trend in the competitive world of American child beauty pageants.

Kerry says: "When Britney takes part in pageants, parents talk about
how they have given their daughter an extra jab to plump her lips or
lose a wrinkle.

"Everyone is doing it and talking about it.

"We are not doing anything illegal, and I don't want my daughter being the only one who doesn't have a bit of extra help."

Kerry is currently preparing Britney for the competitions, as well as saving up for a £2,000 dress.

Britney is also learning the piano for the events' performance sections.

Amazingly, in the UK and US there are no criminal laws stopping a child
having these types of procedures as the industry is self-regulated.

Kerry says: "If I want Britney to be successful, I have to be realistic. She has to start as early as possible.

"I give her between 1-2ml of a saline and Botox solution per session.




Keys to success ... Britney prepares for her showbusiness career



"In the past 12 months she has had different parts of her face
and lips injected four times. I make her frown before injecting, which
helps identify a potential wrinkle. This means we can get it before it
even develops.

"I know the correct amount to give her as I am a trained beautician.

"I'd rather she be perfect and have a little frozen face. Some people
say her eyebrows look a little pulled already but they look striking."

Kerry buys Botox and Restalyne over the internet, spending £150 per 3ml
vial. She has a home-assembled kit of needles from the local chemist
and from a diabetic friend.

Kerry says: "I also buy vials of fillers and Botox from our local "beauty dealer" - one of the mums at school.

"It's all safe and I am not worried.Britney's young and healthy."

Kerry first injected Britney with Botox in May last year, as a present to celebrate her eighth birthday.

She says: "One day I had to keep her home from school as she had a
slight headache, but apart from that she has had no reaction at all.

"She also has her virgin wax monthly, which gets rid of her fluffy leg
hair and makes sure she wont develop pubic hair in the future.

"It will save her a fortune in waxing when she's older."

Little Britney says: "I feel like a supermodel and if I do ballet or go
swimming I don't have to worry about hairy legs. Although the pain
makes me cry, I feel like a cool grown-up when it's all over." Kerry
plans to get Britney's eyebrows waxed this year.

She is also hoping to get them lightly tattooed to an arched shape and is also considering a light pink tattooed lip-liner.

She said: "All this pain and effort now will benefit Britney no end.

"When she's a superstar earning millions, she'll always be grateful for what I did when she was so young."

I can just picture her when she grows up. A self obsessed, insecure, eating disordered woman with the self esteem of a slug...

Why would someone want that for their daughter? This woman shows a startling lack of insight. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the poor girl committed suicide at 30 because her whole basis of self worth is her appearance...

She and her mom need some counseling before it's too late for her.

Assuming she even makes it to 30. People have betting pools if Lindsay Lohan will live to 30 and she didn't have the kind of trauma this poor girl's being put through.

Kerry Campbell, Mom Who Gives 8-Year-Old Botox, Being Investigated By Child Welfare Services (VIDEO)

"Good Morning America" reports that San Francisco Child Welfare Services is now investigating Kerry Campbell, the mother who recently defended her decision to give Botox to her eight-year-old daughter Britney.

Trent Rohrer of the San Francisco Human Services Agency told cameras, "It's pretty unusual for a mom to be injecting an 8-year-old with Botox. Certainly, it's grounds for an investigation." The agency apparently got involved because there were too many unknowns, like Kerry's training, where the Botox she use comes from and whether her daughter's pediatrician was consulted.

"GMA" also noticed tons of backlash after Lara Spencer's segment aired on Thursday morning. On "The View," Sherri Shepherd did some hand slapping while saying, "This is the dumbest momma I have ever seen in my life," and pageant coach Valerie Hayes remarked, "This is not what pageantry is about and I'm sorry to say she's only doing a disservice to her daughter and will never win the title that she so desperately seeks."

Spencer also asked the show's Facebook audience, "Is it okay to inject Botox into an 8-year-old?" and 97 percent said it's wrong. Clearly, the other three percent misunderstood the question.

TSJFan4Ever wrote:Absolutely disgusting! I saw this on "The Doctors" the other day.. What this mom is doing should be considered child abuse - setting her daughter up to be a shallow, self-absorbed brat who thinks the only way she can be something is to display fake beauty? Give me a child covered in dirt and grass stains ANY DAY over one of these trussed up POODLES. There's something seriously wrong with that Mom if she thinks her daughter needs botox to be beautiful. It's one thing if it's for medical reasons but for anything cosmetic? And then hearing the girl go on about a boob job and nose job?
