I’m not going to comment on the cigarette thing because I remember I had a fake one as a kid, bought it from the ice cream truck. When you puffed into it, it looked like it lit up like a real cigarette but that didn’t make me into a smoker. Though I don’t think she should have given her daughter that, it should have been a lollipop or straw.
What irritates me is when people think that all pageants and pageant moms are like the ones on this show. My niece does pageants & my cousin runs one(that was featured on an episode of Toddlers & Tiaras), most are nothing like they show on this series. Everything is exaggerated for the sake of entertainment. I don’t watch this show because many of the kids are super bratty & the moms feed into it, but this does not represent what pageant life is all about.

and this is why reality tv participants don’t deserves stars on the hollywood walk of fame.

wow,, this fake cigarette is drawing so much public attention ….it amazes me how this grows such a concern but ppl ignore the fact that these are toddlers having spray tans, fake nails,and wearing more makeup than i would let my teenage daughter wear
this is really not a show i would want any of my children to be watching ….toddlers are going to grow up fast enough without having to be forced into dressing and acting like adult divas
