The millionaire started out selling bows and then went on to launch her fidget spinner business during the pandemic, amassing a multimillion-dollar empire, as per New York Post.

“Wow. This child will have nothing left to look forward to if she’s been given this at 12. What happens when she’s 22. Did she get her own private jet? This is vulgar and gross,” a user wrote.
Another user commented, “I mean what a way to say goodbye. Pixie you looked absolutely dreamy. What a beautiful girl you’ve become inside and out. We love you.”
“Isn’t anyone disturbed by an 11-year-old constantly promoting things that are designed for adults??? All the skincare and make up that an 11-year-old does not need to be using- it’s crazy that this is the world we live in. Let’s just stop and really think about what this represents about this generation and encourage our kids to be kids not marketing machines!” a third user remarked.
