Welcome to the POP girl gang, Lourdes Leon! The 19-year-old daughter of legendary music star Madonna has landed her first modelling gig and it's a coveted spot on Stella McCartney's team of young spunky It girls who will front her new perfume campaign, POP. So happy to have Lola on the POP team! Lola, who I’ve known her entire life, is at the beginning of her career as a performance artist. She’s an independent, inspirational and free-spirited young woman. Despite being born in the spotlight, she has kept her feet firmly on the ground!

As for Lola, her first modelling job marks a return to the spotlight after years of keeping a relatively low profile. “I have a lot of people judging my every move,” the daughter of Madonna told Vogue. “It’s important for me to not let it rule my life.” A photo posted by Lourdes leon (@lourdesleon) on Feb 15, 2016 at 10:26pm PST Follow Huffington Post Canada Style on Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter!
