The latest, and one can only hope last, news about the now-notorious Botox mom is that--gasp!--it was all a hoax for money. Or was it? Sheena Upton, which is allegedly her real name, claims in a sworn declaration that The Sun paid her $200 to pretend that she injected her daughter with Botox for a story. In a TMZ video, “Sheena” said that she was doing an acting job and that she was “pushed into it.” “Honestly, I don’t even know what Botox is,” she says. She also claimed her daughter was never in pageants. Good Morning America, which had the duo on the show this week, is obviously annoyed that they were duped, so did some investigations of their own.
Botox Mom Kerry Campbell’s story keeps getting sketchier. Just to catch you up on the details so far: She told the Sun back in March that she injects her eight-year-old daughter with Botox so that she’ll become a star. Last week she appeared on Good Morning, America and allowed her daughter to be interviewed; the girl admitted that, yes, the injections hurt. Then a San Francisco paper reported that the woman’s name might not even be Kerry Campbell, nor does she live in the Bay Area. But supposedly officials had taken her daughter, Britney, away from her. Now she’s popped back up in the Sun again, apologizing profusely and “wailing.” She told the Sun, "I am going to seek therapy for my obsession with looks so I will no longer push my insecurities about appearance on to her." She explained that she never wanted to hurt Britney and thought she was helping her.
