Logo for Baby Beauty Queens - Liane

Eight-year-old Liane is desperate to be a model, just like her idol Katie Price. Her mum Amanda tried to make it as a model but her dream didn't come true, so now she hopes that it will for her daughter. Like most girls of her age Liane is into fashion, but she doesn't really feel confident unless she has a face full of make-up. However, she knows that she is going to have to ditch the foundation, face powder, eyeliner, mascara, false eyelashes and lipstick if she wants to make it in the competitive world of child modelling. In 2009, Liane nearly landed a modelling contract as the new girl of Walls sausages in a major TV commercial, but her former school wouldn't grant her the time off for filming. Liane lost the job and Amanda took her story to the local newspaper and changed schools. Liane and her four-year-old sister Ella have had one success though - they won a local photographic competition to become the Christmas poster girls for their shopping centre in Peterborough. But Amanda is on a mission to land Liane her dream job and become recognised nationally. To mother and daughter, appearance is everything and even a child's birthday party takes two days of preparation, starting with a spray tan the night before, followed by a trip to the nail bar, the hairdressers and, of course, a new outfit. Amanda describes Liane as very much a 'girly girl' and is delighted when Ella also decides to join in and so she buys Ella her first foundation.
