Child bride

Courtney Stodden

, 16, is "a good Christian girl," her mum tells RadarOnline even as lascivious, albeit clothed, photos of the aspiring teen singer hit the Net.

Courtney's parents, Alex and Krista Stodden, are doing the media rounds to promote their daughter's marriage to 51-year-old Lost actor Doug Hutchison, who had been managing the buxom bride's fledgling career.

"We all needed a good man in our lives," Krista tells Fox News' FOX411.com. "You don't look at the age. You look at the love they started to have towards each other."

Adds Krista, Doug is "a great Christian man."

Courtney is ambitious: She has posted a bevy of YouTube clips showcasing her many talents.

There's the music vid, "Don't Put It on Me," described by Gawker as "downmarket Ke$ha as she might look in a low-budget piranha movie."

Courtney even has a self-styled anti-bullying public service ad in which she insists her breasts are real.
