I’m not normally a fan of celebrities’ lavish birthday parties for their young kids. Usually, the photos make me shudder. You see some gorgeous celebrity, holding a startled-looking tot, in front of an impeccably styled room, and you think, “That poor kid just wishes everyone could go home so she could sit and play in an empty cardboard box.”
So when I read that Bec Judd’s fifth birthday party for her daughter Billie had been branded “excessive” by “angry parents”, I thought I would be shuddering again.
But when I saw the Instagram pics, I didn’t shudder.
It’s a LOL doll-themed party. LOL doll balloons, a LOL doll cake and a basket of LOL dolls. But the thing that jumps out for me is that Billie has a huge smile on her face. This is Billie’s dream come true. Hers, not her mum’s.

OMG, who cares? I saw absolutely nothing extravagant, and so what if the parents spent a fortune on their kid? It is their money to do with as they wish. Delicate easily-offended jealous butterflies shouldn't have social media
“We” are not angry. “We’re” not missing anything. Some of us don’t even care! Can we have less Bec Judd and more genuine talk?
Speak for yourself Janelle
I'm not just angry after reading this, I'm furious, incensed, inflamed, belligerent and (dare I say it) mildy peeved.
But if you don't envy her, she doesn't have an income. Her brand literally relies on people aspiring to her lifestyle and look.
