Pixie Geldof - cover girl
Pixie Geldof, daughter of Paula Yates and Bob Geldof, was chosen to be photographed for the front cover of Tatler magazine. Pixie Geldof has made her appearance as a cover girl twenty six years after her mother did the same. Pixie is seventeen years old and her mother was twenty three when she was featured on the cover of Tatler. Pixie is a natural brunette but on the Tatler cover she has the short peroxide look similar to her mother. According to Tatler, Pixie is ‘the coolest girl in town’.
The seventeen year old schoolgirl is becoming well known on the London scene. Her older sister Peaches Geldof has also been in the news. Peaches was secretly filmed allegedly accepting drugs at a club. The girls’ mother, Paula Yates, died from a heroin overdose when she was forty one. She had left her daughters’ father, Bob Geldof, to have a relationship with Michael Hutchence, Australian lead singer of INXS. He died in 1997 three years before Paula’s death. Bob Geldof was formerly the singer of the The Boomtown Rats and is famous for his charity concerts Band Aid and Live Aid which raised global awareness and millions of dollars for famine relief in Africa.
It is hoped that Paula’s daughters will not forget the reason for their mother’s tragic death. Peaches has been linked to drugs and cover girl Pixie is thought to have been suspended from her school due to drinking and smoking. Pixie was suspended from the posh Alleyn’s School only a short while prior to her GCSE’s. The school is situated in Dulwich.
Pixie Geldof is friends with Kelly Osbourne and Kimberley Stewart. The old rockers' daughters do seem to know how to have a good time. One of their haunts is the Jaxx After Dark Club. Peaches does at times DJ at this club and the nineteen year old has also been asked to write newspaper columns. Another troubled personality seen at this club is Pete Doherty, the ex flame of Kate Moss. Pixie and Peaches present themselves quite differently and this is being played up in recent reporting of their activities.
