Meh, the entire entertainment/television/showbiz/reality tv is full of nepotism. The girl has contacts thanks to her mother so if she is being helped out, good for her for at least taking the opportunity. Success varies but as long as she enjoys it what's the problem and its not like she is abusing it. The alternative is the dole queue along with many other young people and what would our response be then?
I'd go as far to suggest that perhaps the stigma of being on television shopping channels is probably something most "guests" wouldn't mention on their CV for someone who wants to be in the industry. I agree, she is fortunate but no different to any other parent who wants to help their children out and some parents don't even make the effort to help.
BTW, she looks quite an attractive girl to me (but then I'm male and single :sun though the fashion shoots are pretty poor in my opinion. Yep, can't say that its easy being in the public eye but I get the feeling Sophie is a regular reader of ST.com and may have felt upset about being singled out and sent the request to Graham? But such is the way of the internet forums: take the critics and either respond or live with the fact that in a couple of years, you won't remember anyway :grin:
