Celebrity Scandal: Botox Injections, Beauty Pageants, and the Botox Mom
Celebrity Scandal!
Botox Mom pulls a Balloon Boy stunt but blames The Sun for forcing her to make the Botox Injections – Beauty Pageants story up?
[May 23]
Sheena Upton, now known as Botox Mom across the United States after making a special guest appearance on Good Morning America, has backed away from her claims that she gave her 8-year-old daughter injections of Botox (botulinum toxin). The chemical used by plastic surgeons and others to treat frown lines and facial wrinkles has been used by many men and women who turn to plastic surgery to ease signs of aging. However, when parents heard a mother was injecting her child with Botox for a cosmetic surgery enhancement to increase the child’s chances of keeping her baby face longer so she could compete in Toddlers in Tiaras type beauty pageants, there was a national uproar. What followed the airing of the taped interview was a flurry of calls to ask that Botox Mom lose custody of her daughter — which she did. But that proper child removal was not what caused the most recent celebrity scandal. After losing custody of her daughter, Upton claimed that she had been tricked by the British Tabloid, The Sun, into taking on the fake name Kerry Campbell and making up the outlandish story, according to The San Francisco Chronicle.
Now The Sun reporter Ally Einstein, who broke the news, says Upton set her up by peddling a false news story and The Sun staff are rightly angered by the fact that their news organization’s name has been slandered by this crazy, money grubbing, fame whoring witch seemingly mentally unstable parent.
She’s like that Richard Heene guy who perpetrated the Balloon Boy stunt so his family could get their own reality television gig… only worse, as she truly appears to have caused her daughter physical harm in photos of her daughter getting at-home Botox injections done.
