I cannot believe that this is a good example to a child.

I haven't clicked the link. Please tell me that "900" doesn't refer to dollars or pounds per tooth.

In fact, 900 pence would be extortionate.

It's pounds, but she's American, so once she exchanges it for dollars it's more like 1.4k. She only got $600 last time because she felt ugly after losing a tooth.

I had to google all this - apparently FA (ahem) is a 'star' of something called Teen Mom and got the sterling on a trip to appear in Celebrity Big Brother.

No doubt one day she too will be Ronnie Pickering.
