Who is Thylane Blondeau ?
Thylane Léna Rose Loubry Blondeau is a French model. She is the daughter of footballer Patrick Blondeau and Véronika Loubry. Blondeau has had a reputation as both a child model and a fashion model since the age of four
She is a Controversial child model who stars on the cover of Jalouse magazine . Nearly three years after Thylane Blondeau posed in a provocative spread for Vogue Paris when she was just ten years old, the child model has landed her first 'grown up' magazine cover.
Wearing a knitted sweater and her hair tied up in a high ponytail, the 12-year-old is hailed as the 'new Kate Moss on Jalouse magazine's April cover.
The model, who has starred in campaigns for Lacoste and walked the runway for Jean Paul Gaultier, took to her Twitter account to share the news with a behind-the-scenes image from the shoot. Paris-based, Ivory Coast-born Thylane first rose to fame after she
was cast in the Tom Ford-edited January 2011 issue of Vogue Paris — one of Carine Roitfeld‘s last at the title. The beauty-focused editorial featured Thylane wearing heavy make-up and gold stilettos as she posed seductively on leopard print bed covers. At a summit called by British Prime Minister David Cameron and the Mothers’ Union aimed at cracking down on the objectification of children in advertising and the media, Fleur Dorrell of the Mothers’ Union described the images as ‘physically disturbing’ and said they were ‘blurring all thoughts of beauty’.

In addition to the infamous spread, Thylane landed on the cover of the Vogue Paris supplement Vogue Enfants. Entire Tumblr pages soon became dedicated to her style and Thylane, the daughter of Véronika Loubry, an actress and television presenter, and former Sheffield Wednesday and Watford footballer Patrick Blondeau, quickly shot to tween fame.
But she had already walked the catwalk for Jean Paul Gaultier at the age of four and in Paris, her piercing eyes, waist-length hair and pouting lips have long brought comparisons with a youthful Brigitte Bardot, who was herself just 15 when she modeled for Elle magazine.
