Tamara Ecclestone - British Model

Tamara Ecclestone
Tamara Ecclestone is the daughter of a billionaire & a model whose career seems to revolve around lifestyle & glamor work. Ecclestone’s most famous television project was a reality show all about her called Billion $$ Girl. She is 30 & has been engaged 3 times to a series of unsuitable men. She is currently promoting an 8 page photo shoot for Playboy. Tamara seems every inch the pointless modern celebrity.
Is it just the pointlessly modern words "Twitter backlash" that make us all of a sudden soften towards her, or does this annoyingly rich & good-looking woman actually have something to her?
Last week, Tamara was pilloried online by a lot of presumably very pointful but sadly unknown people. Many people say that Tamara has all the money of the world yet still looks like a vagabond," said one. "Tacky …. Money definitely can not buy class", another added. "Sad there are so many haters out there. In place of worrying about my life, which I could not be happy, you should probably worry about why you are so miserable & try to make your life better."
Tamara Ecclestone has always been quite straightforward about her inherited wealth. She admit that she is fortunate & very grateful for having this inherited wealth. (If only certain politicians could be so up-front about her own fortunate positions.) Tamara Ecclestone supports Great Ormond Street Hospital & Peta's anti-fur campaign. Lifestyle & glamor work is not Médecins Sans Frontières, but at least Tamara bothers to get out of bed in the morning.
Though Tamara Ecclestone was blessed with a famous name, she has worked on singling herself out via her work as a model and TV personality, as well as through her philanthropic efforts.
