Barely out of nappies, four-year-old Maddy Jackson is already on the road to womanhood.

英国小萝莉曼迪·杰克逊虽然年仅4岁,乳臭未干,但已经走上了成熟女性路线。

Showtime: Four-year-old Maddy performs her Dolly Parton routine to hundreds of spectators
Sporting fake C cup breasts and padding on her bottom, she is the latest shock contestant(竞争者) on Toddlers and Tiaras, the US reality show revealing the surreal(超现实主义的) world of beauty pageants.

In an attempt to mimic her curvaceous(曲线美的) icon, country singer Dolly Parton - who is known for her ample cleavage - the toddler is shown sporting detachable bust and butt enhancements, before performing live on stage.

With the extra padding concealed under her Barbie pink Lycra catsuit, Maddy's tiny frame is transformed into an hourglass silhouette(沙漏线式细腰女服) .

Barely able to string a sentence together, many will be shocked by the images of the peroxide blonde trying to emulate the appearance of a woman in her late 20s.

When questioned on NBC's Today show, her mother Lindsay, who entered her first pageant contest when she was nine months old, defends the enhancements used by her daughter.

She tells presenter Savannah Guthrie: 'To some people, it's over the top, to us it's just what happens... It's just normal. When she wears the fake boobs(乳房) and the fake butt, it's just like extra bonus.'

But others seems less convinced and Maddy's stylist Michael Booth believes the attire(服装) is a step to far.

Interviewed backstage at the competition, where hundreds of young hopefuls battle it out to be crowned beauty queen, Michael said: 'I wasn’t a big fan of the outfit with the boobs in it. She’s very young, but hopefully the judges will perceive it in good taste.'

Other young contestants also seem perturbed(扰乱) by her appearance, as they watch Lindsay rearrange her daughter's fake breasts.

Lindsay says as she watches her child's confused expression: 'I don't think Maddy knew how to explain and why she had those enhancements on.'

The show has caused outcry with many who believe that it could influence youngsters to adopt similar behaviour and campaigners have even set up a Facebook group, 'Take "Toddlers And Tiaras" off the Air!' in a bid to have the plug pulled on the show.
