Kate Moss (born January 16, 1974), is an British supermodel
who is best known as the "Face of Calvin Klein".
Born in Addiscombe, Croydon, Surrey, England, Moss with
a height of 5' 7" or 170 cm is considered to be the
shortest supermodel in the world.
Moss was discovered in 1988 by Sarah Doukas (founder,
Storm Model Agency [1] ), when she was only  14.
After shooting for various teenage magazines, she was
launched into the international fashion arena by Harper's
Bazaar.
Kate Moss is said to have started the trend of the controversial
waif look, that critics claim encourages anorexia in impressionable
teenagers. On September 29, 2002, Moss gave birth to her
daughter Lila Graceyfriend at the St. John and Elizabeth
Hospital in West London +with her boyfriend Jefferson
Hack. She had earlier dated actor Johnny Depp for over
three years.
+ as stated by Westminster birth certificate, Lila Grace
Moss-Hack but unconfirmed by DNA testing (note on certificate
is "Grace" not Graceyfriend)
Moss recently sought help for a sleeping disorder at a
top London Clinic, after being exhausted with a busy year
in modelling, raising her daughter and facing relationship
problems with Jefferson Hack.
In early 2005 Moss began dating former Libertines' frontman
Pete Doherty, who hit the headlines due to his crack cocaine
and heroin abuse.
In February 2005, a nude portrait of Kate Moss by Lucian
Freud was sold for £3.93 million.
