First Daughter Now Also First Teen-Ager
WASHINGTON — First daughter Chelsea Clinton is now a teen-ager.
The eighth-grader turned 13 on Saturday and celebrated with some friends visiting from Little Rock, Ark. White House aides said she wanted to see the new Christian Slater movie, “Untamed Hearts,†a romance rated PG-13.
President Clinton and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton go out of their way to shield their daughter from the spotlight and released no other details about her birthday celebration.
But a big bunch of helium balloons and several brightly wrapped presents were spotted arriving at the White House.
Chelsea made a rare TV appearance a week earlier on an ABC-TV children’s special from the White House and told her peers she “always listens†to her parents. Her dad said Chelsea’s only fault was that “she would stay up too late if I let her do that.â€
