What Makes Khia Lopez So Special
Khia is blessed with fabulous genes! What we gather from the family pics she posted on Instagram, the entire family is blessed with stunning good looks. Khia says her two great loves in life are fashion and dancing. It was her craving for fashion that made her mom Tiffany get more creative with her styling. According to her bio at ‘We’re So Fancy’, she is taking eight dance classes at once including a solo one! Dedication has a new name! She is stunning no doubt, and her fans are drooling over her chocolate brown eyes and luscious long hair. Khia is effortlessly graceful and can carry all sorts of looks under the sun. Be it vintage or street chic, she rocks them all. She has amazing posture and is extremely original with her facial expressions. Her graceful poise is an inspiration to ardent followers, kids, and parents alike, who shower her with much love.
Beyond Fame
The new breed of young Instagram models have attracted a lot of flak from the moral police for projecting negative body image issues on social media for kids and teens. Moreover, the kind of attention that they receive is extremely addictive at such a young age and may have grave ramification on their psyche. In a world where self-worth is measured in the number of hearts and follows, these kids are often ready to go to any lengths to maintain these numbers. Though Khia is a part of the “perfect body, hair and clothes” bandwagon, she has never directly been associated with promoting any such messages.
Behind The Curtains
Khia has two cute brothers, Kash and Jett, whom she adores to the moon and back. She is a middle schooler and is currently attending seventh grade. Her mom Tiffany is very supportive of her daughter’s modeling aspirations and is a tween stylist herself. The beautiful family takes regular vacations at the beach and often goes camping.
