The world's most precocious 8-year-old just became the world's most precocious 9-year-old! 
Bindi, chock full of animal magnetism, will be celebrating her birthday with a "mad celebration" at the Australia Zoo, where all kids under 14 will get in free! Plus free face painting and free rides! Crikey!
Steve Irwin was killed ten months ago while diving near the Great Barrier Reef, when a stingray barb pierced his heart.

Keep this pretty little girl away from Brittney, Paris and especially Lindsay!
Miley Cyrus, Mandy Moore, Raven Simone, Tia & Tamara Mowry and the Duff sisters are better influences.

I would much rather look at this happy genuine 9 year old that has the best loving parents and one of the most eager attitudes to fight for something she believes in , than to look at one more picture of loser Lindsey Ho-han or skank ho Britney Spears. This is the girl your children should be looking up to. She WILL go on to do great things for all animal and human kind and has already done more so in the last 9 years of her life. She is a wonderful little girl and that's thanks to parents that love her and show her why kindness is so important in our world right now. Snap.

Hey!!! # 10 Diana Ross
I think that was unnecessary to say about this child. I think Bindi is pretty, wise, and very brave. She has been through a lot and she is still going strong with and for her mother. Her mother is all she has left and they are still doing a wonderful job carrying on what her father, Steve, use to do. Now she canât do exactly what Steve did, but she is still making people aware of animal needs and the environment.
And ever child can be obnoxious at times. Iâm sure you were too at times even now. She canât be happy and cute all the time. Bindi can get aggravated just we all can. Next time keep your post (like that) to yourself. No one else here is being immature like that.
And HEYâ¦. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BINDIâ¦..I know your father is looking down on you everyday feeling nothing but proud. We love you just as much as we loved your father Steve, and keep doing what you do Bindi. Our prayers are with you, have fun today and everyday.

Hey #19.. thinkaboutâ¦.
I believe that was an unnecessary comment to speak on. You should have written something more positive. When you begin start the negative (being how children are easily influenced) they may follow that. And with your comment about her body parts at this age or any, being put on TMZ was just stupid to say. Pay attention to the positive comment around you. These are the type little things that children like to hear.
To: Perryâ¦#23â¦
We know Bindi is not being pushed to do anything. She loved he father Steve and what he done. She was involved when Steve was around. Therefore she is now continuing the work that she use to do when her father was around. Bindi is bright and well informed. Her behavior and knowledge is nothing new. Her father Steve taught Bindi what she knows.
And you know what Tony #26â¦..if you really didnât care then you would not have bothered to post. Get over it and grow up. No one has shoved this precious little girl at you. This is a positive thing that TMZ is finally reporting. And it is much better that seeing Paris body parts, Lohans arrest records and lineup photos. You must be bored in your W.T. trailer down in the bushes.
Grow up Guys & enjoy the positive on TMZ
Happy Birthday Bindi!!! And God bless you and your mom. And we will always love your dad.

I think âPerry 22⦠is blind. I mean look at all the bad things that are being reporting now a days. This is the positive and this is refreshing compared to what we usually see.
I would rather look at Bindi every time I opened a magazine website, than looking at the behind and more of Nick Lachey and his trash from H** baring it all and pretending like they didnât know.
Happy Birthday Bindiâ¦we love you always. And be sure to keep us informed on the knew when it comes to the environment. Kids love to learn from you, just like they did with your father. Both of you seem to be so much fun.

Youâre an idiot Tony 25. And that was disrespectful to say about her father.
Ignore people like him. We are not all like that over here. We love you and what you do. Keep following your father. And listen to your mom, and you will be all right.
Happy B. Day.
Oh Hey Bindiâ¦to bad youâre not Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) He turned 18 on Monday and I think he know has access to 50 Million dollars. But he says that he only wants to by DVDâs and CD. Stay positive like Daniel and people will continue to love you and youâll keep going far.

Johnny SoCal #34*** You know you are sick to say that. You know that this little girl could read this. That is just the kind of thing that labels us with the stereotype. Iâm just glad that there are less of you out there, than there is of us.
Learn some manner like a real man Johnny. You are just the kind that keeps the Paris and Lohan mug shot stories continuous. We are trying to get them gone from TMZ. Young Hollywood is embarrassing to Americanâs.
In other words Bindi, millions love you and your mom. We are not all rude like this and we hope you visit us soon.

You people are downing this child already, predicting that her future will be like the young ones in America. Austrailaâs young seems to be doing a lot better than the Americanâs⦠rethink that one before you bring it up and label this young girl.
Bindi is talented and will stay that way, and we are glad that will. She has a great mother.
^^^^And you know what Cindulouâ¦17â¦you sound just like your screen nameâ¦a pure child. Iâm sure Bindi will do fine. Unlike the young people in California, she has a parent that seems to care and watches her like a responsible parent. So grow up â¦Cindylouâ¦17.

To answer your question JDH^^41 "Why is this news of Bindi's B Day entertainment worthy?"
This is entertainment worth because she is positive and refreshing to look at compared to the trash that we have here in the States. And reporting on the boring Beckhams that just moved her, poses while doing nothing with NO smiles, like smiles are expensive and they canât afford them.
We like you Bindi. And Happy Birthday I hope you enjoy it.

Let me tell you something Richy richy ***First of all, shut up!!!
We know just like her mother, that Bindi is not her husband Steve. And we could tell if Bindi was unhappy. She has always loved following her fathers work, and she is doing nothing but continuing to do so. Bindi should NOT be being the scene if she doesnât want to be. This child has knowledge that her father passed on to her. And she will NEVER stop learning because it is in her to find out more and to help others, animals, the environment, and herself.
And lastly...YES YES YES, Bindi can have it both way. Daniel Radcliffe, and his friends, Emma and Rupert are doing great. Look at the other child stars where they live and in Australia they seem to be more on track that ours. So stop downing them. Bindi is not being allowed to run wild like the young American ones. It seems that the young ones in other countries are taught more control. Young Hollywood is really making us look bad.
We should wish that our young Americans would have knowledge for something great that is helpful to the citizens and themselves. Again, Ricky, ricky...take a look at how well others are doing compared to us before you go posting the negative like you know what is best for her. I think her mother has it together and keeps a hold on Bindi...obviously.
