No way, am i first?!?!?! I don’t even care about this post but i’m first… YEAH!!!
awwwwww
….
first
oh, i guess i wasnt first…haa
danielyn needs a mom for sure:(
5th
What a famewh#re! Nobody walks with their baby facing forward like that unless they want the ratzi taking pictures of the kid.
That close-up picture of Dannielynn looks like when Anna Nicole made those stupid looking faces…which were almost all of the time.
Poor kid. This is what she will get to look forward to her whole life. Can you imagine the life this kid’s going to have? I feel sorry for her.
Why does it look like he can’t hold a baby?
She either has a lazy eye or is cross-eyed. I noticed this before on her but it’s really obvious here. I wonder if there’s a video of this? If the child is flapping her legs like she always does and her hands I’m suspecting there might be some problems there and I hate saying that.
This is a child…let her be.
Why does he carry her like that ? anyone can take her picture turn her around poor kid
Dannielynn, looks like a poor tired jet lagged baby and the flashing lights of the camera’s probably upset her. Anyone who has ever dealt with a over tired wriggling baby will know you hold on to them however you can.
tom cruise holds suri like that too
Feel such compassion for this little girl…
After all these months, he doesn’t know how to hold nor physically bond with her as a parent. Nobody carries their child the way he carries her and here we see, again, how he smothers her face (a frightening thing on behalf of a little child) to prevent anyone getting a photo of her with the exception of those he sells or arranges on E.T. to exploit her to the world.
We only want to know that she can “walk”, “talk”, and matures naturally and successfully by the time she is ready to make her own decisions aside from those of her biological father and her biological mother’s former circle. Her mother surrounded herself with absolute losers the last 12 years of her life.
She’s such a beautiful child, I just hope to God that she finds some true love and stability in her life. As a mother of three children under three, I had twins…you see first hand how important it is for children her age to have that strength of bond with their parents, I fear this child is lacking!! It breaks my heart to see her with this man, she needs her mother, although I don’t think her real mother would have been much good to her!!
dannielynn is a beautiful baby girl
Someone need to teach Larry how to hold a baby.
The baby will continue to have emotional and physical problems as she grows. Her mother took drugs and alcohol while pregnant and this is what can happen. The poor baby has no chance for a normal life at all..
I always thought she looked alot like her daddy but as she’s become older I see more Anna as well. How sad to grow up without a Mom. I couldn’t imagine. Poor thing.
This poor little girl. Undoubtedly very tired from travelling and tons of photographers around…… is it any wonder she is upset?
I feel so sorry for Danni Lynn!
Dannielynn is a beautiful child. She got the best of both, but maybe they are waiting till she gets a little older to correct the eye problem. I noticed it only because when I was a child I had the same thing. Hopefully Larry is just waiting till she’s old enough to get it. It’s scary for any parent to put your child under. I’m sure he’s aware of it, and on top of it.
Oh poor Dannielynn :-( Why is he squashing her face like that? I can understand not wanting the paps to take her photo but it looks like his face on her hand is whats upset her :-(
I hate paps >:-x There should be a law against them photographing babies. Plus they shouldn’t be lurking around airports catching people unawares.
hasn’t this goose laid the golden egg yet?
she should be owning her own Gulfstream-5 by now.
Aww, so precious.
I’m back. Why not have given Dannielynn to someone to hold? In the photos there’s the nanny, Larry’s nephew and Lisa. Couldn’t one of them have walked ahead with Dannielynn and put her in the car while Larry got the luggage? Or vice versa. I find looking at these photos disturbing. The paps suck. I hate seeing Dannielynn upset.
On a brighter note: Dannielynn is wearing beautiful shoes! Plus I’ve noticed her long hair and molars. She is the cutest by far.
she is cross eyed from all the drugs Anna did while pregnant - she will prob have an IQ of 17 her entire life, ugh!
**** I hate paps >:-x
notice how Larry is trying to cover her face/eyes….he knows she a freaky lookin’ kid.
Good gracious. Somebody please tell him how to hold a baby so that she feels secure. Nobody likes their eyes covered when they are in a scary situation to begin with. If you want to cover her then carry a blanket. This doesnt make him a bad father but geez, he could have done this better.
yea big time p-*****! you know you don’t need to carry your daughter with her facing the cameras idiot…but you do it anyway. i just hope it all will go to her college fund. sigh!
is she that ugly because the mom did drugs when she was pregnant??
A little late for Larry to be shielding her from the cameras. He didnt mind her picture taken when there was lots of money involved. And as many have already pointed out, he cant even carry her properly.
Probably because she needs a mom and she’s got a loser for a dad whose constantly pimping her out to make $$ based on a dead woman’s name and daughter! Poor kid, she needs a normal life with REAL parents. He needs parenting courses too if he’s going to keep pretending he cares; he can’t even hold her right.
she is cute. her eyes do look a bit off though but that is because she looks like daddy.
oh crap - this poor little girl has whatever pregnancy related syndrome and a family who is only out to ***** her. At least Anna Nicole walked in to the life on her own. This child has no freaking choice.
WE SEE ANOTHER KEVIN FEDERLINE ON OUR HANDS WITH LARRY BIRKHEAD!!
IF ANNA WAS A LIVE TODAY HE WOULD NOT HAVE ACCESS TO HER …
WHY IS HE FAMOUS.. OTHER THAN HIS DAUGHTER…
I knew Howard Stern should of kept her. she wouldn’t be around this madness in the bahamas. I can’t stand this guy. She is looking more and more like Anna. I feel bad for her because I think her daddy is pimping her out but now wants to act like he is sheilding her from the paps. If she was in the bahamas she would at least be living a normal life far away from LA and the paps.
The older she gets the more she looks EXACTLY like him. As stated by another poster, her eyes always look crossed or at least one of them appears to float inwards. I’ve noticed this since she was young.
What happened ? Why Dannielynn is cry ?
ONE UGLY BABY!!!
None of us are perfect humans and this child is being denied any type of relationship with her maternal grandmother due to her dad’s misperceived and arrogant false image of himself. One will see as time progresses that she looks like her mother and maternal grandmother so is he going to turn on the child upon the revelation, too?! There are a lot of divorces in his own family (father, mother, siblings) so what makes him think he is any better than Anna Nicole’s mother?
“Hope” for this child….
a wriggling baby like this can make life miserable for the poor people stuck in its proximity on an airplane. there should be flights made available where you can’t fly w/kids under 5; i’d even pay a premium to fly one of those…
She is having a melt down - kiddy temper tantrum and is wiggling out of his arms. Kids are strong and even stronger when having a tantrum. I feel for him.
Dannielynn is precious. She’s always been so happy. She has to be
unhappy because of the Airplane trip and flashing lights of the paparazzi.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO: JARED

AND EVERYONE
It looks retarded…
AFTER A LONG RIDE IN AN AIRPLANE, WHAT BABY WOULD BE HAPPY. THINK HE’S DOING A FINE JOB. MAY GOD BLESS THEM BOTH. :)
and apparently not a pretty baby either!
sorry, but there is something “not right” about her.
i think you all know what i mean.
that kid is in for one f’d up childhood.

CROSSEYED MUCH???

That poor child…. I feel for her. What an unsettled life she has. Larry does not look as if he is going out of his way to comfort her. No wonder she is upset with the photogs all around.
CUTE BABY..BUT SHE DOES LOOK A LITTLE **** EYED. LARRY TAKE HER TO THE NEAREST EYE DOCTOR (OPTOMETRIST) TO HAVE HER LOOKED AT :)
THE STARS ARE NOT OUT OF DISTASTE ..I GUESS ANOTHER WORD FOR IT IS CROOKED OR STRABISMUS … :) WHICH COULD BE CORRECTED IF DONE SO EARLY :)
WOULD NOT HURT TO HAVE HER CHECKED OUT.. :) ;)
notice how in the pic where she’s staring at the camera she looks exactly like her mom did when she painted her face like a clown?? XD
but she’s a cute kid. so sad what happened to her.
shes looks like a little macaulay culkin i think its the eyes and mouth
OMG…she is soooo gorgeous! She is really starting to look exactly like Anna Nicole, even though when she was a very young baby she was an image of her Daddy. She is already so beautiful. God bless you little Darling.
Dannielynn is going to be the teenage girl that all the other girls are not going to want at all the parties because all the guys are going to be drooling. She will make all the other girls fade into insignificance becasue of her natural beauty.
Danielynn is cross-eyed but it should be corrected before she reaches the age of 7.
My niece has a “lazy eye” like that. It’s easily corrected with eyeglasses. Even if there’s no astigmatism , glasses are worn for a few years when they are three to five yrs. old.
Man, she’s pissed.
He dresses her so cute. I wonder where he finds all those pretty clothes.
Danielynn looks cuter than all those other baby celebrities.
she is even cuter than Shiloh and Sean Preston.
not to be mean or anything, but ive seen those cross eyes before, and her mom did do a whole lot of drugs, so would you be suprised if she was… hey i didnt say it
Shannon @ 6:45 PM.
You are delusional to think this child would be better off with Anna Nicole’s former personal attorney than her own biological father.
As I said befoore, Danilynne has amblioplia which can be corrected with surgery. It has nothing to do with drug use you guys. It has to do with muscles in the eyes and is correctable with surgery. If it is not corrected it results in major disfunction in ability to learn. I don’t know why my first post about this was deleted, but Laryy needs to know about this and that the earlier it is corrected, the better for the child. I know this because my son had the same condition and, believe me, it had nothing to do with drugs!
Alot of babies have crossed eyes, they usually grow out of it. As for carrying her that way, my nephew for the life of us would not let us carry him with his back outwards.. he always had to be able to see everything that was going on. Give the little girl a break, she’s not even 2 and has had a hard ass life.
#68 no, they do not “grow out of it” Please, this has to do with the muscles that control the eyes and if it is not corrected early on it causes major learning disabilities. I know what of I speak as I believed the same sh*t and my son suffered for it. He had to wear a patch on his GOOD eye and the effects on his life were horrible. I wish I had just let the surgeon do his thing when my son was young. When the surgery was finally done, my son had the great vision he should have had years earlier. Larry B needs to take action now.
Larry has on a coat. She does not and the way he is holding her, her bare tummy and back are exposed the the cold temperatures. WTF
I can understand that it looks like when he left her with the Nanny in the SUV she cried and Larry took her with him after that but teach him how to hold a child.
I’m sorry, she is just not cute, and she needs a coat.
Poor baby. Her mommy really didn’t take care of her body while she was pregnant what with the the drugs she was on. What’s worse is her father parading her around for all of the paparazzi to gawk at and take pictures. :(
her teeth are so big it makes her look so old!
I wish I could have been there to comfort that baby. The commotion, the bright lights, the quick movements might have been discomfiting to the baby. She needed a secure blanket in a dimmed, quiet area.
sorry, the kid is cross-eyed. you can look at all the pictures out there. probably from anna’s drug habit :( so sad. hope he’s having her tested regularly for autism, aspergers and well everything else that a drug addicted baby can be born with or develop :(
She’s a beautiful baby. If he paraded her around a lot, she’d be used to it like some of the other celebabies. The fact that she’s scared shows that he has been able to protect her from the madness.
Good lord, some of you people obviously know nothing about kids. Dannilynn is at an age where anything can set her off. She may have been cranky from the flight or from the barrage of photogs and camera flashes. Maybe she’s cutting teeth. Or maybe she’s just cranky. My daughter went through a period of time where seeing certain people or random strangers would make her cry (she was about this age). It was totally embarrassing….. someone would walk up to us in a store to admire my twins and my daughter would go ballistic. Some relatives commented back then that my daughter often seemed cranky and yet her twin was so happy-go-lucky. Kids are all different. Some are perpetual grinners and others are more pensive or even downright moody. P.S. My daughter is 7 now and very well-adjusted, happy, calm, etc. Go figure!
Awwww poor baby, Mr. Birkhead, try to hide her under a blanket or something next time you walk around paps.
He can’t even hold the poor girl…somebody please take her to a safe family with lovely surrounding before she starts to remember things!!! I’ve never liked A.N. Smith but well, it’s not that little girls fault so I wish she could just grow up in anonymity and then it’d be fine.
Oh btw, she got a LOT of teeth for being 15 months don’t you think?? oO
My god, society today is full of cúnts. You all have to bash a little girl because she can’t defend herself? You’re that pathetic?
she looks ’special’
I am sorry but that is one ugly f*cking child
She’s afraid of the scary Paparazzi ! Who wouldn’t be !!!!!
Poor little girl…:(
I do hope Larry corrects his little girl’s crossed eyes. All the drugs Anna Nicole took when pregnant sure messed up her daughter’s eyes. So sad.
she’s not crossed-eyed.
her left eye is just really close to the right.
there’s nothing wrong with her right eye !
i feel bad for her.Larry you need to learn how to hold her
but she’s so cute
It truly was a great disservice and dishonor to this little child that her biological father and mother’s dog and purse carrier put her immediately “up for sale” with not only one but multiple photo shoots for millions of dollars which exploited her right to privacy as a small child. With the death of her mother under such tragic and questionable circumstances, she deserved all the privacy in the world (just like Jayne Mansfield’s daughter until she was a teenager). Once he joined money forces with her mother’s attorneys, he stole every hope of this little girl psychologically maturing in a normal environment. Even worse is the fact that instead of providing his own housing for her as most father’s do, he moved into her mother’s California home where much debauchery had occurred and, let’s not forget, the house adjoins the property of the infamous psychiatrist who kept her mother drugged instead of seeking appropriate and “professional” psychological help the first five months of this little girl’s life and after her half-brother died. Hopefully, those who provided drugs during the pregnancy of this girl will meet harsh judgments by the authorities sooner rather than later. If this young man is wise, he will soon make the decision to return to his native state and get this little girl out of California with her great potential for varying challenges so she is not repeatedly photographed and judged by the public.
She seems very scared by the flashes of the paparazzi! Poor thing. She looks a lot like Larry, almost scary! No wonder Anna Nicole fled to the Bahamas, haha! Hope Larry finds a sweet girlfriend who can be a mum for Dannielynn.
My children loved Ernie and the other Sesame Street characters. Maybe these magical and joyful characters add tenderness to her life that has otherwise been wrought with a great burden created by the adults who have surrounded her since birth.
That baby is so ugly. I think she got all fugged up in the womb while her mother was taking drugs.
Oh. My. Freaking. God! Birkhead is STILL carrying that baby facing TOWARDS the cameras?!!!… I feel so bad for Anna Nicole. She is freaking rolling over in her grave knowing that baby exploiter is using her baby to get famous. ..sad.
He seems like he truly cares for her and loves her a great deal. That being said, it’s too bad that he used his daughter to get publicity and money. She is crying because the lights are scaring her, and the stupid paparazzi don’t even care. People who said things about her being slow-this is a child, an innocent child who lost her mother.
This little one definitely looks as though she has a lazy eye.
Poor thing…
Not hard to fix Dad!!!
Everyone in that airport is wearing a jacket but this baby. WTF?
The child needs to have her eyes examined. My niece had the same problem and has been wearing glasses since she was a year old. But hey Anna Nicole would probably not want her to wear glasses. Oh well poor kid.
you can tell from the pictures that is not a happy baby! Larry is always out clubbing-he holds baby like a sack of potatoes! If he truly cared about the child he would not be standing in middle of a street with pictures being taken.I would love to have his meal ticket taken away and let Grandma have the baby.
how time flies. she’s so big now. what a cutie. obviously she’s tired and cranky and flashbulbs don’t help any.
“let grandma have the baby”????? #94 you are obviously nuts! or did you mean Larrys mom? I wouldn’t let Virgie babysit a dog let along a baby.
For all you all know Larry could have already got Dannielynns eyes checked. Chances are he has. If the result is glasses or surgery when she is a bit older what do you expect him to do about it now…..put a sign around her neck letting everybody know? geez, she’s just a baby cut her some slack. Maybe all those concerned folks should become foster parents and contribute to society that way.
Leave them alone!!!! He´s not a bad dad and the Howard Stern guy couldn´t do better than Larry. Larry seems to love his baby girl a lot and she´s crying because of the paparazzi. Theýre the ones who scared the little kid. Larry is only trying to protect her by shielding her with his coat. And, to all those who don´t know, he´s not holding her in a badly way. He was trying to run away from the cameras. With a crying baby on his arms, you think it´s easy to run from those idiots of the paparazzi???? Leave them alone, enough with exposing the private life of celebrities. They too, have the right to privacy. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!! Jail with all the paparazzi!!!!
She’s crying because she can’t see straight. Someone get this kid some glasses!
Wow…so many baby experts on here. Considering the child is looking directly at the camera it would make sense that she’s spooked by the flashes, I imagine there were loads of paps there.
They must have loved it when she freaked out, great story she’s an unhappy, unstable child, the public will fall for that hook line and sinker!
The first picture I saw I thought it was Sean Preston. Beautiful baby.
I would be crying to if I had massive hands covering my face! Sheesh.. Poor kid looks cross eyed too..
she definitely has a lazy eye and NO they don’t wait until later to fix it. She needs glasses and maybe a patch. My daughter had it and the longer you wait the worse it will be.
You know how there was a controversy as to how old Suri really was, well this prooves that babies grow at different rates. This baby looks slightly older than Shiloh and Shiloh is almost going to be 2!
It is unbelievable how cruel people can be. Some of the comments on here are disgusting. How you guys can be mean to an innocent child like that is beyond me. She had no control over what her mother did. There are kids out there with problems and their mom’s didn’t do drugs, so why not leave her alone. Why call her names?? Anyone who has a child knows that we love our own children so much it hurts and that our children are beautiful to us, talking nasty about someone else’s child is just pure mean and ignorant. She is a beautiful little girl and I am sure her dad is doing the best he can. Kids don’t come with instructions and for the record, KIDS CRY, every single one of them. So if she is crying she is having a bad day don’t we all.

Someone needs to teach that idiot, Larry, how to hold and carry a baby without having her clothes fall halfway off her! Also, keep your nasty hands off her face! That baby looks miserable, and it’s because he’s too stupid to know how to hold and carry her. I’d throw major fits if I was Dannielynn. He’s a famewhore who brings her out when he needs money, and the rest of the time he holds his nastyass hand over her little face. I wish she would bite him! In a couple of those pictures, her little shirt and jeans are almost falling off her! I feel sorry for Dannielynn and the life that is ahead for her. All the money in the world can’t make up for her ignorant father carrying her around all over the country and using her when he needs extra money!!! I used to like him, but as you can tell, I no longer do! He’s all out for $$$$$$$$$$$. SHAME ON HIM!
The flight from KY to LAX is very long, even longer with a young child.
No wonder they all look so frazzled. Give it a rest this would be a difficult situation for the best of parents.
It does look like a strange way to carry a toddler, but having had experience with children of my own this age I know that…………………..
Men do not carry an upset, crying, KICKING toddler, of this age and size, facing them if they are concerned for their and the child’s safety.
One swift kick in the wrong/right place (groin area-and YES a toddler can kick a man hard enough in the groin to make them double over and drop to their knees) by the toddler and they will both end up on the floor. My husband learned this the hard way when our first child was this age. Luckily, he didn’t drop our child and both were eventually okay.
If you have ever had kids of your own then you know Dannielynn’s age has a lot to do with her behavior. Hang out at McDonalds for a while if you don’t believe me. Geez… come on, she is a toddler and within normal limits of her age. Have you ever heard of the terrible two’s, tantrums and tired babies? And sometimes they are very hard to hang on to, ever held a baby fussing and thrashing around? It must be very hard for him to go out in public with idiots chasing you. As far as Larry goes as being a father I feel sure he is naturally a loving and caring Daddy. She is beautiful and so what if she has an eye problem. No doubt in my mind he is caring for all her needs. I was a labor and delivery nurse and a perfect pregnancy can still produce a child with medical problems even a stillborn. I’ve also seen babies born as addicts and still turn out very normal. Besides who are we to judge. Are you with them 24/7. DUH!! Some people just like to speak there opinion and that’s all it is…everyone has one. Knowledge is a great asset for those of you just guessing.
I disagree….. :(
I know Dannielynn needs a mom :(
I feel sorry for her…
No wonder she is upset, instead of having her face him and sheilding his daughter with his jacket, he has the poor girl facing the world, and yet smothering her with his hand to make it look like he is trying to protect her from the paps. The guy is such a fake! Trying to cash in on his daughter like that!
this is ridiculous
everyone obsessing over this dear child. and larry just abusing her by using her to win his own fame.
Dannielynn is a beautiful baby. If she does have lazy eye, no big deal many kids and people have it and it can be easily fixed, geesh pretty bad when so called “mature people” attack a baby!
She needs eye surgery for the crossed-eyes. My husband had it when he was a baby so I know they can repair that problem and treatments should be better now. Birkhead would sell his own flesh out for the old dude’s big bucks this poor little girl could inherit. It would be to her benefit if she doesn’t get a dime (or at least it doesn’t get settled until she’s over 21). She’s a victim of her whole family’s greedy ways.
