Wonders of the world

A little 6 year old girl wrote an essay that won her 4 Hannah Montana concert tickets. The essay started with “my dad died in Iraq this year.” While you may think “oh poor girl”, think again. Her mother acknowledged to contest organizers that it wasn’t true. And now the girl from Texas may lose her tickets. This all began Friday with company officials surprising the girl at a club Libby Lu at a mall in Garland. The girl won a makeover contest that included a blonde Hannah Montana wig as well as the grand prize: airfare for 4 to Albany, New York, and 4 tickets to the sold-out concert January 9th. The mother had told the company officials that the girls father died in Iraq April 17th in a roadside bomb. Priscilla Ceballos told a news station in Dallas that Sgt. Jonathon Menjivar was the father. But the Department of Defense has no record of anyone with that name dying in Iraq. Robyn Caulfield said the mother has admitted to the description. Mary Drolet said the company is reviewing the matter and is thinking about taking away the girls tickets.
