Has everyone seen this:

They look like teenagers but they are 8 & 9 years old. Really appalling! It was on GMA this morning at the gym - I thought my eyes were going to pop out of my head. The guy next to me on the elliptical was equally shocked.
I can't even look at that. Thanks for the warning!
ugh
Then I looked at another headline and it says Ashton Kutcher wants biological children with Demi Moore who is 47.
Awful. I don't understand why parents sexualize their girls. These girls will giving head to boys any day now. Sorry to be so rude but I can totally see these little sluts going to sex parties by the age of ten.
ITA with all of you guys. BUT, on the other side of the coin the dancing was not half bad considering how young these girls really were. Who knows maybe they will earn a living by dancing instead of screwing? LOL. Or maybe both, hell, life gets funny that way, lol

It is really wrong to sexualize very very young children.

Well I do agree with you there cassia but you should give it a chance. Put aside all the angst about kiddie crap and look at the
Choreography not bad for little ones. Except there was a moment when the lead girl got so dizzy she almost fell. But she did not, an that takes guts to keep going when you know inside you screwed up. My brother use to be a dancer so I know how hard it is from all of HIS teen angst.
But yes ITA little girls should not be dressed like sluts. But I guess this is the sign of the "times" This is what people want, so very very sad
Definitely wrong. I'm not sure the little girls can be held accountable though. Rather their parents should be charged with something, surely there's a law somewhere that says that the sexualization of children like this is wrong? This is just sickening especially when you hear all the cheers from the crowd. Don't any of them see how wrong this is?
Ugh.
I really feel sorry for the pressure that very young girls get today...the pressure to only be a sexual object. I never remember girls looking like total tramps at such a young age. Gosh, even the girls that were labeled "loose" in HS, they never dressed that revealing and these girls are probably in elementary or middle school? How sad.
No wonder girls have body issues. I am not saying they can't be on stage dancing, but this number was just short of a strip club routine, IMO.
I am not saying that they are not skilled dancers and that a **less sexualized dance** would be great for these extremely young children.
I am very disturbed by the clothing and gestures for dancing which was suitable for pole dancing at a strip bar.
Okay...as a former dancer myself, I think these girls have TALENT...some of those spins are VERY hard.
BUT, the moves are WAY too sexual for such young kids, and they were dressed like Parisian hookers. I mean, thigh highs? I only ever bust out the thigh highs for Valentine's day "surprises"....
They're very talented, but the choreographers in the dance world need to take a responsibility and a stand and stop doing such sexual routines....unfortunately it has been like this for YEARS upon YEARS.... it may never change.
As a guy I'm going to chime in.
What the hell kind of father thinks that it is ok for his less than 10 year old daughter to do this? I mean those are skank outfits they are wearing and good lord, just look at the moves they are doing! I'm a bit more old fashioned than most people my age, but an eight year old shouldn't be doing a sexxy booty dance.
Eddy you're so right. It makes me sick to see how parents are sexualizing their young daughters. And yes they are getting a ton of attention but it's the wrong kind of attention for the wrong reasons.
This just teaches young girls that the only way to get any attention in this world is to be sexual - no matter what your age.
And as one reporter stated, the girls at the competition are wearing even less than Beyonce in her original music video.
Disgusting.
This has to be breaking at least two laws.
Anyone who views this as not sexual needs a wake-up call!
I never liked how our world is so sexual and much of our entertainment is about sex.
I hate to sound so conservative. but gaa!
