She only learnt to walk five months ago, but 'Baby Beyoncé' is already strutting her stuff on stage at pageants.
雖然她五個月之前才剛學會走路，但是這個被人們稱作“寶貝碧昂斯”的小寶寶已經開始在各種盛會的舞臺上展露風采了。
Wearing a black leotard and curled hairpiece, beauty queen Bobbi Boyden shakes her hips and blows kisses to the audience as part of her routine.
這位名叫波比·博伊登的小選美冠軍穿著一身黑色的連衣褲，帶著鬈曲的假發，非常熟練的跳著扭臀舞，向觀眾們飛吻。
Her mother Stephanie Boyden, 32, says Bobbi is a 'diva' who runs to the stage when her name is called - and screams when she has to leave.
她的母親，32歲的史蒂芬妮·博伊登稱，波比非常有主角意識，聽到別人叫她上臺就會興奮的跑過去，讓她下臺的時候就會憤怒的尖叫。
She said: 'Bobbi's like a little Beyonce, a little madam really.'
她說：”波比就像是小碧昂斯，一個小淑女。”
But her success doesn't come cheap and her mother has already spent £5,000 on elaborate dresses and entry fees.
但是她的成功也來之不易。精美的舞臺裝和參賽的全程費用已經讓她母親花費了5000英鎊的費用。
'In total I've spent about £5,000 in three months on my three girls. One dress cost me $200 and she only wore it twice before she grew out if it - but I don't intend to lower my spending.
“在三個月里，我在我的三個女兒身上總共花費了5000英鎊。有一件裙子花了我兩百美元，她只穿過兩次，就長高了、不合身了。——不過我不打算節制開支。”
'You can't put a price on the look on her face when she's on stage in her costumes.'
“當她穿著華麗的衣服站在舞臺上，她神采奕奕的表情對我來說是無價之寶。”
'She does wear wigs and crowns and fancy dresses but I don't give her spray tans or cake her in makeup - I'll wait until she's about five for that.'
“她確實帶著假發和皇冠，穿著美美的裙子，但是我不會給她用噴霧曬黑劑或者給她涂上滿臉的化妝品——我會等到她五歲的時候再給她用這些。”
'For now she wears a dab of lipstick and nail varnish.'
“現在，我只給她稍微擦了點唇膏，涂了點指甲油。”
Bobbi's dad Anton, 28, admits that he had his concerns at first, but is now comfortable with Bobbi's routine.
波比的父親，28歲的安頓，承認他一開始對波比的風格路線有所顧慮，不過現在他已經欣然接受這件事了。
Anton, who works in the military, said: 'I thought the Beyonce routine was inappropriate when Steph first told me about it, but when I saw her on the stage doing it, it worked out quite well and everyone enjoyed it.'
安頓在軍隊里工作。他說：“當我妻子一開始告訴我波比要走碧昂斯路線的時候，我覺得有點不太合適。可是后來我看到她在舞臺上的樣子，她確實很適合這種風格路線，大家都非常欣賞。”
'She enjoys it and we don't force her to do anything she doesn't want to do.'
“她自己也很喜歡。我們不會強迫她做任何她不想做的事情。”
'This child is going somewhere big, you mark my words.'
“這個孩子將來會有大成就的——記住我這句話。”
