The Pimenova sensation has been growing for a while. (Ironically, perhaps, this video segment is posted on Kristina’s Facebook page.) “It just becomes dangerous,” said Shields. But Shields said she was concerned about the social media environment today, which spreads the images so far and fast, and often with disturbing anonymous comments. “I don’t think they’re that bad, these photos,” Shields told Meredith Viera. And while the “beautiful” is evident, especially those penetrating grey-blue eyes, there’s an uncomfortable edge to some of the photographs that blurs the difference between “girl” and “woman.”īrooke Shields, 49, who started modeling when she was less than a year old, posed nude when she was ten, and played a child prostitute in the Louis Malle film “Pretty Baby” when she was 12, recently said she didn’t think the pictures of Pimenova she’d seen were particularly suggestive. One fashion blog named her recently as “the most beautiful girl in the world,” full stop. She’s probably a very likeable kid, in fact, but the popularity is all about the pictures.

MOSCOW - Do you know any children with 2,500,000 “likes” on their Facebook pages? A nine-year-old Russian girl living in Moscow, Kristina Pimenova, just topped that number.
