From child queen to teen influencer: How Paisley Langworthy evolved

A few years ago, Paisley Langworthy gained significant attention in the media as a young beauty queen. Her photos, often featuring bold styles and heavy makeup, sparked considerable debate. Now 16, the American participates in beauty contests, showcasing her evolution.

Children's beauty contests have always been a topic of debate, stirring controversy about the suitability of such events for young participants. In recent years, discussions about the negative effects of these contests on the mental health of growing girls have become increasingly prevalent.

Langworthy, at nine, was known for her heavy makeup and bold outfits, creating a buzz, especially with photos of her in a swimsuit or revealing attire. Stripped of the makeup, false eyelashes, and styled hair, the young beauty was almost unrecognizable.
