Four-year-old Marion, otherwise known as the kid who memorably crashed her dad's BBC interview, is already unperturbed by the spotlight. And the internet loves it.

The family in that video held their first press conference Wednesday since becoming the most viral family in all the land. True to form, Marion stole the show while Dad was just trying to talk.

"We love our children very much and are happy that our family blooper, our family error there on television brought so much laughter to so many people," Kelly said. What a nice thing to say, right? Sure.

Unfortunately, the audience -- and now, the internet -- mostly paid attention to Marion. And her cool pink glasses. And her devil-may-care attitude. And her extremely small sideways ponytail.
