Time now for a new occasional Lost in Showbiz series: Are You More Pretentious Than A One-Year-Old?
Today's exquisitely refined infant is the daughter of Michelin-starred chef Hélène Darroze, who takes to the pages of the Evening Standard today to explain that – like Madonna – she too adopted a child from abroad.
Born in Vietnam, Charlotte is now 21 months old, and as her mother explains:
Charlotte's palate is incredible. It's the quality of the dishes and the produce that she appreciates. She loves all kinds of green vegetables. She can tell the difference, I think, between very fresh ingredients and those that are not so fresh. She won't eat bad chocolate.
Well of course she won't. Next to her Madonna's little Mercy will seem quite the parvenue to London society, and we urge madam to fast-track her aesthetic education the minute she returns from Malawi.
