Pixie Curtis is a millionaire and hasn’t even graduated from primary school yet.

The child has made millions before most of us even got our pen license at school but to be fair, she was practically born with a little black book in her hand.

The pint-size savvy businesswoman is the daughter of PR Queen Roxy Jacenko, who has gone from PR expert to celebrity, and her dad is businessman Oliver Curtis.

You can’t pretend that she’s living quite the everyday life, she’s taken the normal childhood experience and added luxury to it.

Curtis, 11, isn’t getting the bus to school instead, she’s the proud owner of a $270,000 Mercedes Benz Gl – even though she’s years off being able to drive herself.

She owns designer wear, has her own glam room and of course, she’s famous.

Unlike other children of celebrities, Curtis is happy to embrace the nepotism baby tag.

“My parents have given me lots of opportunities, so, I suppose I am a nepo baby,” she admitted.

Right now, she’s snagged a brand deal with Mermade Hair, and she credits the partnership partly to her mum previously working with the growing brand.

Still, you couldn’t accuse Curtis of being the Robert Kardashian of the family, sure she was born into fame but she’s also made something of it and she hasn’t stopped at a measly sock line.

The primary school student amassed her a multimillion-dollar empire selling bows and launching her fidget spinner business during the pandemic.

She also has over 100,000 followers on Instagram; for reference she has more followers than Richard Wilkins.

For awhile there it seemed like Curtis was an unstoppable social media machine, but the

celebrity offspring shocked everyone earlier this year when she announced she’d be stepping back from running her empire to focus on mundane things like homework and playing tennis.

Don’t panic though!

Curtis hasn’t stepped away from the spotlight completely, she’s active on social media and clearly carving out a brand for herself.

So what is Curtis like? Well, she’s a self-confessed “night owl” with a usual bedtime of 11pm.

She also advises that no one bothers her in the mornings because she’s a self-described, “nightmare.”

Successful business people are known for needing little sleep.

Elon Musk has famously said he survives off only six hours of sleep a night, although he doesn’t have to keep awake for things like netball training and school assemblies.

She absolutely isn’t rolling out of bed and heading straight to school, instead she has a strict beauty routine.

She has a night time routine that involves a vitamin C facial wash and a sleeping mask. Plus, she makes sure in the mornings that she uses sunscreen and bronzing cream to get her school ready.

But it is her hair routine that she’s most excited by.

“I wash and blow-dry my hair every day and then dry it using the Mermade Hair blow-dry brush. I also like to add heat protector to each section to protect my hair,” she told news.com.au.

And if she has a special occasion, perhaps like a school disco, she’ll turn to a tan.

“On Thursday, mum and I spray tan if I have a special occasion, but we won’t mention that to dad, who will lose his mind,” she joked.

Curtis’ diet is pretty typical for a child. She’s not chowing down on octopus for breakfast like Musk is rumoured to or only eating meat she catches like Mark Zuckerberg has claimed.

Instead, she likes to eat “rice crackers with vegemite, Tim Tams, chicken crimps,” for lunch.

Her mum, Roxy, also fills her lunch box with fresh fruit and cucumbers, but Pixie admits she offloads them.

“I give them to my friends as coming home with them not eaten is a headache. My lunch box isn’t perfect, I am a difficult eater, and my mum and dad have given up,” she joked.

See? The savvy businesswoman strikes again she knows how to problem solve.

Despite her success, she also doesn’t feel like it has impacted her social life; just like Taylor Swift, she’s still managed to harness a strong girl squad.

“My friends have been the same since kindy as I have been at the same school since I was five. They don’t think I am any different to anyone else, and I’m not; if anything, they love to hang at my place because they love to hang out in mum’s glam room and I wash and blow-dry their hair,” she revealed.

Curtis is also really enjoying semi-retirement.

“It’s easier now, when I was doing the business every afternoon after school and then activities, I would be doing toy reviews or running through new products that mum was thinking to stock on the website, which was getting tricky. Now I am in Year 6 there are a lot more commitments and homework that also needs to be completed,” she explained.

Plus, her gruelling schedule as a businesswoman was causing conflict between her and her mum.

“She would get a little cranky when I wouldn’t want to do videos because I was worn out but also understood. I loved doing it all, but I am also happy that now I can focus on my school work and have some time out,” she said.

Just because she’s winded things down doesn’t mean she isn’t still in business.

“I kept my Pixie’s Bows business which is Kids Hair Bows which doesn’t require a lot of work as its just about choosing colourways each season and now I am 11 I don’t wear hair bows as I am too old!”

Lots of business people can relate to outgrowing their original business model. Surely, even Tom isn’t on MySpace anymore.

She also would encourage any child to pursue any business idea they had.

“If you have an idea go for it,” she suggests.

Forget selling Freddo Frogs for some extra cash, instead she’d recommend kids finding a hole in the market and capitalising on it.

“I love thinking of ideas to make money, my friends and I even started making bracelets and selling them to our friends – I love doing things like that,” she shared.

Still, despite her rich status, she’s still like many young Australians relying on the bank of mum and dad.

“My dad puts money on my Spriggy for when I go to the shops with my friends on the weekends, but any splurges are for a birthday or as a reward for doing well on something or a bribe.”

Although Curtis does admit she does get the odd luxury gift.

“The Goyard bag that I got for Christmas from my parents was really cool and pretty pricey. I put it on my list, but I didn’t think I would actually get it – any money earned from my toy business was reinvested or put into savings I am not allowed to use it,” she explained.

She’s also generous with plans to buy her younger brother Hunter Travis Scott trainers for his upcoming birthday.

So what is Curtis saving up for?

“I really want a Range Rover or a ute, but mum says I am not a tradesperson, so that’s ridiculous.”

Ridiculous seems on brand though. You have to admit Curtis’ life does seem ridiculously fabulous.
