Anna Nicole Smith’s Teen Daughter Debuts Chic Smoky-Eye Makeup & Fans Say It’s ‘Too Much’ for Her Age

Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter, Dannielynn Birkhead, recently caught the public’s attention with a dazzling look. She and her father, Larry Birkhead, 51, attended the Barnstable Brown Gala ahead of the Kentucky Derby weekend and the doting dad shared pictures on Instagram.

In an array of snaps, the 17-year-old is seen rocking an all-black look that Larry revealed was one of music superstar Janet Jackson’s outfits. He got it for Dannielynn at the music icon’s charity auction.

Coupled with her Janet look, Dannielynn adorned some makeup, including a chic smoky eye and pink lipstick. She styled her blonde tresses in loose curls.

“Looking forward to a fun Derby weekend with the newly graduated high school student! 🐎 👩‍🎓,” wrote Dannielynn’s dad, emphasizing the wonderful time they were set to have. However, far from being fussed about the event, many people were focused on Dannielynn’s appearance.

The teen’s makeup, done by a makeup artist named Rick Bancroft, sparked a flurry of online comments. “Too much makeup for a 17 year old!” chastised a social media user.

Another user made the same comment about Dannielynn wearing a lot of makeup and added that it was “hiding her natural beauty!” Agreeing with the previous assertions, another person expressed, “Way [too] much […] for a young girl.”

“For 17 she is quite overdone in the makeup department. I think they are trying to make her look like her mom. Let her be 17,” stated an Instagrammer.

Although many felt that Dannielynn’s makeup was inappropriate for her age, some people showered her with compliments. However, even among the compliments some gave, they still felt that the young beauty’s makeup was too heavy.

“She’s a natural beauty. Doesn’t even need much makeup. Especially the eyebrows. Let her be a teenager,” someone said.

“Sweetheart, great job, however very heavy for [a] 17 year old,” commented another social media user who saw the pictures of Dannielynn.

Apart from inheriting her mom’s beauty, Dannielynn has also adopted her late mother’s style in some instances. According to Larry, his daughter sometimes wears her mom’s old clothes that he kept in storage for her.

“There’s some t-shirts and different things she fits in […] There’s also some things that would have to wait till later. Some things are a bit more revealing and low-cut. Plus, she was a variety of sizes, so she’s got every size covered that you can imagine,” Larry divulged last year.

However, Larry also made it clear that there are some items of clothing that Dannielynn has no interest in. “There’s also some things that she’ll say ‘Dad, no thanks, that’s not my style,'” disclosed Larry.

From her dad’s statements, it’s clear that while Dannielynn may emulate some aspects of her mom’s fashion sense, the teenager has her own sense of style.

Apart from her iconic Janet look her dad got for her from an auction, Dannielynn Birkhead was also seen wearing a unique red dress with ruffle shoulder pads during the Kentucky Derby.

“Dannielynn’s dress was inspired by her favorite character Hino Eiji, Kamen Rider OOO TajaDor combo -she made me write that 😆 -because that character had the same shoulders as the design of the dress she found ! 🤷‍♂️” captioned Larry alongside photos of him and Dannielynn.

As a “proud” dad, Larry has taken several opportunities to boast about his beloved daughter and what a “great kid” she is.

Aside from recently appearing at this year’s Kentucky Derby (where Larry and Anna first met), Larry, who once mentioned that he “can’t believe” Dannielynn “is old enough to drive,” was seen spending time with his daughter earlier this year.

In January, the doting father shared an endearing carousel of images of him and Dannielynn at a restaurant. This ignited comments from fans about which parent they feel she resembles the most, which we previously reported on January 24, 2024.

Social media was abuzz with fan remarks about the father-daughter pair. Of the pictures taken during their outing, one fan stated, “Dannielynn looks so much like you; she could be your twin.“

While additional comments continued to focus on Dannielynn being the “spitting image of her dad” others reflected on her “beautiful smile” and noted that she “looks more and more like her beautiful mom.” However, one person asserted that she “looks nothing like Anna Nicole.“

Apart from the restaurant pictures, Larry has also shared tender snapshots of life with Dannielynn, who is growing up to mirror both of her parents in different ways.

While fans have long noted the physical similarities Dannielynn shares with her father, Larry has observed that Dannielynn resembles her late mother, particularly when she experiments with makeup, bringing a touch of Anna’s glamour to her appearance.

Away from the glitz and scrutiny of the public eye, Larry prioritizes a normal life for Dannielynn, carefully shielding her from the media’s constant attention.

He intends to preserve her youth, allowing her to grow up at her own pace without the pressures that fame can often bring.
