Dannielynn Birkhead a Second Generation Guess Girl
Dannielynn Birkhead is ready for her close-up. Two decades after her mother became a world-famous model for GUESS, and five years after her untimely death, the 6-year-old daughter of Anna Nicole Smith, makes her modeling debut. In the ad, the pretty little girl strikes a pose on the beach as she wears a denim miniskirt, white denim vest, graphic T-shirt and fedora, (photos below). "Dannielynn has the same playful spirit that her mother had on a set," said Paul Marciano, creative director for GUESS?, Inc. in a press release. (The ads for the Spring 2013 campaign will appear on buses, billboards and more beginning in mid-January 2013.) Adds Marciano, "She is a second-generation GUESS girl, which makes this campaign a first for us." Following an extended paternity dispute with Smith's partner, Howard K. Stern, Dannielynn's father was confirmed, (via DNA test), to be Larry Birkhead, one of Anna's exes. Birkhead, 39, opened up to Us Weekly back in June 2011 about life as a single dad to Dannielynn -- and how he explains Anna Nicole's tragic death to his little girl. "Dannielynn knows that her mom passed away. She obviously doesn't know the details," he told Us. "At first I said, 'Your mommmy's up in the clouds.' Then we were on a plane from Kentucky and she asked, 'Which cloud is my mom on? Maybe she can come play.' You have to be forthright but keep it on a kid-friendly level." *What a beautiful child! I'm glad two attractive parents didn't cancel out her beauty, for lack of a better description. I hope Daddy keeps her grounded. There was no way he could deny that baby from Day One. She looked just like him. Howard K. Stern was such a waste of a human being! May he burn in Hell!* |
