She is 54 now after all and has held up pretty well with the plastic surgery. Here is a pic from her back in the day.

Name :Janice Dickinson

Date of Birth :

17 February 1953

Place of Birth :

Brooklyn, New York, USA

Height :

5' 10''

Nationality :

American

Profession :

Model, Actor

  • Measurements: 34-23-34 (1980s model card) (Source: Celebrity Sleuth magazine)

  • Coined the term "Supermodel" in 1979. She defines the term as
    a model who excels in editorial, catalog, advertising, and runway work,
    and in being a spokesperson.
  • Claims to be the first supermodel. However, it is commonly
    accepted that there are only five supermodels, and the following list
    does not include her: Claudia Schiffer, Christy Turlington, Cindy
    Crawford, Naomi Campbell, and Linda Evangelista.
  • Janice Dickinson was one of the brashest,
    wildest supermodels ever. As the child of a violent, pedophiliac father
    and a pill-popping mother, Janice Dickinson grew up hearing her
    father's "You'll never amount to nothing!" Determined to become a
    raging success, Janice Dickinson went to New York City and began
    calling modeling agencies. It was the 1970s, and the ideal models were
    blond "girls next door" like Cheryl Tiegs, but Janice Dickinson was a
    self described "Polish-mutt n----rlips." She was turned down by Eileen
    Ford -- "Those lips!" -- but ended up going to Paris after Lorraine
    Bracco told her photographer boyfriend that she liked Dickinson's look.
    Janice Dickinson became a huge success in Europe, and returned to New
    York City in 1978. It was the era of Studio 54 and Dickinson partied
    with the likes of Truman Capote, Andy Warhol, and John Belushi. She
    seduced the most famous ladies' men, drank every drink and snorted or
    inhaled every drug. While foggy headed, Janice Dickinson fell off a
    catwalk and onto Sophia Loren. Dickinson took revenge on Ford by
    signing with her agency and then jumping ship to Elite when she became
    established in the US. On her way out the door, she reportedly told
    Ford, "It's me, big-lipped Janice. I'm going to Elite. I don't like
    you, I've never liked you."
