Why Kendall Jenner is called New Pippa Middleton?

At the beginning of the Kim Kardashian wedding frenzy, Khloe Kardashian-Odom described her sister's forthcoming nuptials to Kris Humphries as "royal wedding number two." And after a whirlwind three months of wedding planning -- and $30 million later -- it looks like Kim's extravagant fairytale wedding could in fact rival that of William and Kate's in more ways than one.



For many, Pippa Middleton upstaged her older sister Kate Middleton (and nearly blew up Twitter in the process) during Kate's royal wedding to Prince William of Wales. Pippa's skin-tight white Alexander McQueen dress made international headlines; the Daily Mail even dubbed her "Her Royal Hotness."



Now, with Kim's nuptials only days away, we have a feeling that 15-year-old Kendall Jenner -- the oldest daughter of Bruce and Kris Jenner and Kim's younger half-sibling -- is going to be the breakout star of this Hollywood wedding phenomenon.

10-year-old Vogue model: Pretty or pretty weird? [Updated]

Thylane Lena-Rose Blondeau is 10, but an issue of French Vogue, in which she wears heavy makeup, stilettos and a come-hither look has stirred up an adult-sized controversy.

The images of Thylane, which appeared in the magazine's December/January issue but were brought back into the spotlight in a "Good Morning America" segment on Thursday, are firing arguments about the sexualization of young girls. Some see it as part of an overall recent trend toward younger models. (Although one might argue that it is hard for a young girl to get a break, given all the fortysomething movie stars hogging covers nowadays.)

Still, two young film stars have recently gone the modeling route: Elle Fanning, at 13, is the star of the Marc by Marc Jacobs fall campaign, and 14-year-old Hailee Steinfeld, the wholesome-looking star of "True Grit," signed a deal with Miu Miu. Actresses Katherine Heigl, Amanda Seyfried and Lindsay Lohan also started their careers as young models. And just this week Kardashian sibling Kendall Jenner, 15, landed a swimsuit modeling contract.
