Because she is only 8 and her Dad just died, moron.



They didn't - the tickets were FREE.

More the reason to speak from your heart, i dont see many close family members at funerals reading out a speech either. 8 is old enough, shes old enough to brag about owning the zoo on tv when shes older she didnt need to read that out...
And they must of made a u-turn on charging since at first they where going to.

I have unfortunately been to my father-in-law's funeral recently. My wife and my 14 year old son both did readings at the funeral, along with several others. They all read from a script.

I was extremely proud of both my wife and son in doing that, but I can tell you there is no way they could have done it without that script (which they wrote themselves).

So don't go around bad-mouthing an 8 year old who has no idea how to deal with this.

As for the tickets, you are once again talking crap. They never once suggested charging for them.

Bad mouthing? I wasnt bad mouthing her at all i said it would be better to not read it which is my opinion and isnt bad mouthing at all. It said on radio 1 they where going to charge which is why i thought that, if your told something by the news you usually believe it. Theres no need for your life story either keep your past events for yourself i couldnt care less :)
 
Is it just me, or should she:
a) Not be so damn proficient in public speaking?
b) Have written that herself?

Either she's a super-genius, or this was written by someone else, and she had to go over every little influxuation in her voice.
 
Apparently she wrote it herself, but you would assume she had help.

It's also worth noting that she was just about to have her own TV show, which Steve Irwin was going to help her with. She appears to be one of those kids that has a natural talent, and remember she has spent her life in the public eye.
