Dakota Blue Richards Labelled 'Inconsiderate Yob'....The Golden Compass actress Dakota Blue Richards has been labelled an "inconsiderate yob" after the child star destroyed a neighbour's snowman.The 13-year-old who appeared alongside Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman in last year's (07) big screen adaptation of Philip Pullman's cult novel, was criticised for flattening the icy figure near her home in East Sussex, England, this week (beg07Apr08).Abe Restato, a newsagent who helped build the sculptures, was baffled as to why anyone would deliberately destroy his hard work.
He says, "We put our heart and soul into that snowman. Now I don't even want her autograph. She went from cool to very uncool in a very short space of time".And neighbour John Conrad adds, "It seems kids today can't being inconsiderate yobs even if they are film stars".Richards' spokesman has hit back at the comments, insisting the teenager did not mean to offend anyone, saying, "It was a game that obviously somewhere along the way went awry."It was not done with malicious intent at all".The X Factor might be the bane of some folks’ lives thanks to a certain pair of twins who keep appearing on the show week after week, but as we’re trying to determine who we’d most like to go on a hot date with this morning, we thought we’d open the floodgates to your views.

i think its awful that even young celbrities are critized for any action they make. Everyone does things that could be inconsiderate but that doesn't mean you need to report them.

I think it's pathetic the way there making such a big deal about smashing a snowman for goodness sake, she's a child and was probably just having a laugh with some friends, it's not like its a crime!

With all of the thing going on in the world, a smashed snowman doesn't really need that much media coverage. It was disgraceful behaviour, but I have mever seen something so bizarre in ... READ MORE

Maybe she got too much "into the role"? ;)
Lyra was a bratty character too, at first, wasn't she? :)

she is just a brat. a lot of work goes into snowmen and its only fair on the creators that it isnt destroyed by someone just because they can get away with it.
