So, we're beginning to wonder if, while we weren't looking, we might have gotten totally old and stuff. For instance, we just found a long gray hair dead in the center of our chest, like a bullseye left by Father Time for his good pal the Grim Reaper. Oh, also: we're kind of floored that they're letting Monika Jagacia -- a fourteen-year-old from Poland -- walk a runway in Australian Fashion Week. Sure, she's stunning and all, but... you know... fourteen! FOURTEEN!

Hey, hang on -- it can't be that weird of a question if, like, news.com.au was in such a scramble to confirm her age, right? Right?

***UPDATE 7/4 18.00: Jagaciak’s birth year, 1994, was published on the website of her mother agency, Gaga. IMG’s Sydney office claimed today that she is older than “13 or 14”. According to a representative of Gaga’s head office in Poland, with whom I have just spoken, Jagaciak’s birthday, as listed in their company records and as apparently also sighted on her passport, is 15/01/1994, making her 14.***

Here's hoping that Monika's mom and dad are sensible enough to keep her away from drugs, alcohol, couples dancing, and David Blaine.

Well, whew. We feel better now that we've gotten that off our chest. All righty then, leave us alone for a while; our programs are about to start.
