Dannielynn Birkhead, daughter of late Playboy bunny Anna Nicole Smith, is set to appear in GUESS clothing ads as her mother did before her.
The six-year-old will follow in her mother's footsteps by starring in a series of ads for the youthful clothing brand’s children’s diffusion line. Birkhead’s mother previously appeared in a series ads beginning back in 1993, which began her career in the modelling world.
The center of controversy after Smith’s untimely death, Birkhead was the subject of a turbulent custody battle between two of her mother’s former lovers. The six-year-old will star in the ads alongside other celebrity offspring including musician Babyface’s daughter Peyton Edmunds. The ads are slated for a 2013 release beginning in January.
