“I would prefer not to watch my mom being sold as an 11-year-old prostitute.”
Brooke Shields’s daughters looked back on her role inPretty Babywith discomfort.
At age 11, Brooke appeared in the Louis Malle movie as a child sex worker.
Brooke now has two daughters, Rowan, 21, and Grier, 18.
They sat down withPeopleto talk over Brooke’s filmography, making their thoughts onPretty Babyclear.
Neither one of the daughters have watched the film.
“I don’t like this movie.
Ive seen enough clips of it on TikTok,” Grier remarked.
She reportedly added, “I would prefer not to watch my mom being sold as an 11-year-old prostitute.
Id rather watch the funny and happy ones.”
Your stage kiss, which never counts as a real kiss."
This echos what KeithtoldBrooke at the time that the on-set kiss didn’t count as her first one.
She had to kiss someone [over] twice her age."
In response, Brooke said, “It was a true story in the 1900s and I was acting.
To this, Grier said, “Yes.”
“Im either watchingLove Islandor a new movie, likeMinionsorDespicable Me.
Its not like Im purposefully avoiding watching my mother.
I lovedMother of the BrideandACastle for Christmas.”

Nothing I did then, you could get away with doing now.
