Luci McQuity Hindmarsh booked an ‘Elsa From Frozen Entertainer’ from London party entertainment agency AEIOU Parties Ltd for her daughter’s 5th birthday party.
She wasn’t happy.

I think the photos say it all. She looked dreadful, like she’d left a rave at 6am. Apparently the Elsa outfit had been worn by another entertainer earlier that day and was wet with sweat. So, our entertainer decided to put the outfit on OVER THE TOP over her own clothes, which happened to be black. She didn’t even bother to put the costume shoes on and wore a pair of tatty black flat shoes. The dress came undone at the back, someone did it up for her, but it wouldn’t stay done up, so she left it to hang off. The wig didn’t fit her and she didn’t bother to put any make-up on.

Don’t mock. The little Miss McQuity Hindmarsh will be scarred for life by this episode. For life, I tell you!
‘They tried to make me go to rehab, but I said let it gooooo…’
“…she became increasingly frosty with the children as she made her way through the face painting.”
In tears of laughter here.
Let it go.
That movie has a lot to answer for.
“Parenting Blogger”…. Shudder. Professional wreck the head!
“strong spanish accent” hahahaha
At least they were white!
Trying not to howl with laughter on the train. The pictures are priceless.
As tempted as I am to give the glib “first world problems” response, this actually does seem pretty rough.
This is worth a watch –

I feel sorry for the woman who took a crappy job, showed up and humiliated herself in an unwinnable situation, and now has her humiliation spread all over the Internet with the thin excuse of seeking redress with her crappy employer.
That’s right, the hungover person who is terrible at their job is the real victim here.
Hungover?! You know this how?
Factoring for sarcasm, who is the victim here? The parents? The children? Who’s suffering most in this, the parent who is out £170, the child who had a weird birthday party, or the woman who had a photographic record of a particularly shitty, embarrassing day at her desperate job distributed for the mild amusement of millions?
I’ve had terrible days at my job but they never ended up viral fodder.
Do you genuinely think that she is receiving her just desserts? That seems like an unempathetic gut reaction.
Anyone see where the craic went? Was sure I saw it around here earlier…
There was jelly and ice-cream but she declined.
She wanted her cake and eat it
people need to stop doind crap like this for their kids parties
She? SHE?!! The right photo shows five o’clock shadow for Chrissakes.
And is that a cock-and-balls balloon trick in the left photo.
Gwan the blogger!
Yeah, I thought they were photos of different people.
Maybe that blogger should have listened to the song before hand….
“A-E-A-E-I-O-U-U, I sometimes lie….”
For £170 I’d have shaved me legs and done it in her stead :)
Maybe if Luci McX had made a little effort in leading the 5yr old darlings in their own renditions of Let it Go, it would have been more fun for them, less costly, and would have avoided the “horrific experience”.
I doubt the 5yr REQUESTED a live performance from Frozen!
Everything about this is despicable, except for the girl who showed this sham off for what it was. If you’re that much of a complete and total plank to fork out any amount of cash to an entertainer I’ve no time for yer moaning. Are the parents that f**kin dull that they need to get some outsider in to entertain their spoilt little brat of a 5 year old? When I was growing up my parents would have party games and maybe a video and it was flipping brilliant.
Parents these days don’t realise that the key to a successful birthday party is to get them off their faces on Skittles and Coca Cola.
And LSD
“According to the agency, they cannot discriminate over who they give a job to.” – it’s effectively an acting job, presumably they can make the applicants pass an audition? Lame excuse.

Too freakin’ busy to throw a proper birthday party for your kid and instead outsource it to a shoddy company before whinging about the results on your blog in an effort to get a refund?
If she was not happy at the time, why did she hand over the remaining 50% of the fee?
Very little sympathy from ol’ Pol.
