MUMBAI: Baywatch star Pamela Anderson has come under fire from child protection advocates after a nine-year-old-girl carried the train of her gown at a fashion event.
Anderson shocked guests at the Hollywood Style Awards on 11 October when she turned up with young Adelaide Gault, who walked behind her making sure that her flowing gown didn‘t catch on the floor, it is understood.
Gault, the daughter of a make-up artist who was said to be working at the event, was left looking embarrassed and uncomfortable as she followed the actress around, and even sat on the floor as Anderson took her seat near the catwalk.
The audience physically gasped when Anderson took to the stage, turned to Gault and patted her leg, shouting ‘daughter,‘ as if she was calling for a pet dog.
A spokesperson for America‘s Child Labor Coalition has now called for investigation into how the nine-year-old came to be ‘working‘ as part of Anderson‘s entourage.
