How disappointing for parents the world over, I know.  But in addition to her not dreaming that dream, she’s actually pissed at the parents of her fans calling them ‘selfish’:

“My job is to be a role model, and that’s what I want to do, but my job isn’t to be a parent,” “My job isn’t to tell your kids how to act or how not to act, because I’m still figuring that out for myself. So to take that away from me is a bit selfish. Your kids are going to make mistakes whether I do or not. That’s just life.”

Her mistakes she is referring to of course are the private raunchy pictures that have leaked online of her as well as the inappropriate mocking of Asians in another photo that she downplayed.  She still doesn’t understand what the fuss is about her Annie Leibovitz pictures that shocked the world:

“Here, my parents are thinking they’re seeing a beautiful picture by a major photographer, and the people of America want to see something dirty in that?”  ”It doesn’t make sense to us because [my family] doesn’t look for negativity. But people don’t want to say ‘What a great performance’ or ‘What a great shot.’ No one wants to look at something like that and see the positive because it doesn’t sell a magazine.”

Um, it wasn’t just America.   Canada (and other countries) didn’t think it was a ‘beautiful’ picture, not that I speak for all Canadians.
