A WOMAN’S dreams were crushed as a child when she realized that her attempts at modeling were going unnoticed.
Heather, whose now 18 years old, has gained a following on TikTok thanks to her videos that recount funny memories from her childhood.
She calls her TikTok account (@officialheathergdawg), her “autobiography.”
In a recent clip, she said that when she was eight years old, she had big plans to become a model.
Rather than sit around and wait for the opportunity to come to her, she did something proactive to make it happen – in the only way a kid can.
“I taped photos of myself around the neighborhood in case a modeling agent found it,” she said.
What happened next, however, was hilariously off point.
“Instead, people thought it was a missing person poster.
“So, when I was walking with my dad someone called the cops and my dad got arrested because they thought he kidnapped me.”
While the initial experience may have been traumatizing, today, Heather clearly laughs the whole thing off.
Viewers thought the story was hysterically unrelatable.
“I think that this is truly an original experience,” one person commented.
“WE NEED TO SEE THE PHOTO OMG,” another begged.
“Listen, can’t say you lacked ambition,” added a third.
“’It’s called exposure, dad,’” a fourth joked.
“And that’s on *manifesting* fame without being specific,” chimed a fifth.
And someone else said it was right out of a comedy script: “This is like a Modern Family episode.”
