Say hello to Ehrinn Cummings.

One of the nicest things we've ever heard said from a supermodel is this: "If someone on the Web is bored enough to gather information on some chick from Canada, then that's cool."

This is what Ms Cummings had to say about the impressive number of Cummings fan sites on the 'Net, and while we're not exactly a fan site, we're not going to turn down a compliment from an uber-model (though we're not so sure about the "bored enough" bit).

Born in Montreal, Canada, on March 14, 1981, the pretty Piscean was discovered at the tender age of just 15, in her home town of Montreal. Her mother, a former equestrian coach, and father, schoolteacher, were both English born, but raised their family, including Ehrinn's brother and sister, in Canada.

As we've already mentioned, Ehrinn was discovered at just 15, when a Next Modeling Agency rep approached her at a coffee shop. Obviously, these model scouts are everywhere!

Maybe one day we'll be hearing of a model being discovered in an actual model agency building... Or maybe not.

Ehrinn Cummings was somewhat apprehensive at first, but after the model scout mentioned she'd be entitled to a $2000 cheque, she was all ears.

Her first advertising campaign was run in Canadian magazines, where she was endorsing the latest shampoo range.

Some twelve months later, Ehrinn Cummings was working for Guccio Gucci in Paris, France.

As time wore on, everyone wanted to work with Ehrinn Cummings, and she completed campaigns for the likes of Ann Taylor, Esprit, The Gap and Sisley, in addition to appearing in Vogue, Cosmopolitan and Jane magazine.

This year, Ehrinn Cummings scored her first global scoop, getting a spread in the career-launching (not that she needed it!) Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue (circa 2002).
