Samantha Fox: ‘I know young girls of 14 and 15 and they want to get Botox’ – Music News

Samantha Fox tells Jackie Brambles why she wouldn’t encourage young girls today to follow in her footsteps.

Eighties icon Samantha Fox joined Jackie Brambles on her show tonight to have a chat celebrating her forty years in showbusiness. As she reminisced about her early modelling days, she confessed that if she had a daughter of 16 – the same age Samantha was when she made her debut on Page Three – she wouldn’t be encouraging her to follow in her footsteps:

Samantha said: ‘I wouldn’t encourage it these days – there’s no Page Three anymore and now I think all the reality stars are like the new glamour girls. There’s so much pressure on young girls now to look a certain way and if I did have a young daughter, I probably wouldn’t let her look on social media until she was a certain age.

I know young girls of 14 and 15 and they want to get Botox, big lips… I mean they are so young and I’d be a bit scared for my daughter to go out in that world at the moment because there is so much pressure on the way you should look.

The way I believe people should look is to grow old gracefully, but that’s my feelings about it and everyone’s got their choice, but I think young girls start so early and it’s just such a shame. And girls are looking very, very similar and back in the day it was all about individuality, about being that girl next door and being approachable. I was the girl next door, I was approachable, and I think it’s really, really changed and I’d be a bit scared for my kids to go into that business now I really would.’
