La Nouba Girls - Mickey Monitor

[rlduvall]

Did anyone see in the new Mickey Monitor the article about the little Chinese girls act at La Nouba? The article mentions the girls are only 8-10 years old and receive tutoring on a daily basis, yet Disney advised the Podcast Crew they were about 16. Anyone remember that episode? :confused3

I do, and I thought they said 18 :scared1:

Well, just don't ask the IOC to investigate, or we'll never know their true ages!!:rotfl: I suppose they are like the Olympic gymnasts- they all look like they are 10, but they are "really 16".

Maybe you're right and I was confusing their alleged 16 years of age with the Olympics. :laughing:

No, you're not wrong. That's what "we" were told (or was it 18?)

[JCandKT]

I thought they said in their 20's?

I believe they said they were of working age but they DIDN'T say which country.:lmao:


plus performacne working age is younger!!! look at stage shows, movies, and tv shows with working kids!! as long as they get their set number of schooling hours per day they are in no violation!

I read that same article in Mickey Monitor and looking at the picture I thought to myself there is NO way those girls are 16. Who does Disney think they are fooling?
