We can almost hear
Nigel Barker, "noted fashion photographer" and
America's Next Top Model's resident ageist, wincing. Today the
Daily Mail revealed that British model/D.J./Lower East Side dweller
Agyness Deyn is not,
as she has previously claimed, 18 years old. Nor is she,
as she has claimed, 21 years old. In fact, it appears that she is actually—brace yourself—
24 years old. "Her listing on the Companies House website, under the name Laura Hollins, shows her birthday as February 16, 1983," the
Mail reports. We have no idea what the "Companies House" website is, but it sounds serious. But not as serious as this: In model years, 24 is practically an old coot. What effect will this have on Agyness's career, we wonder. Will the
MisShapes kids not want to hang out with her, considering her advanced years? Will the
Fashionista girls turn this into her
James Frey moment? Or, is she still in the running toward becoming America's next top model? We know we're staying tuned.
