Gemma Arterton's Birth Defects....

Bond girl Gemma Arterton was born with an extra finger on each hand and a "crumpled ear".The St. Trinians beauty underwent treatment as a baby to have her extra digits removed, which involved having the sixth fingers "tied" so they fell off naturally - leaving her with small lumps on the side of her hands.The 22-year-old - who stars in forthcoming James Bond movie Quantum of Solace - also had an operation on her ear to give it a more defined shape.

She tells British magazine InStyle, "I was born with lots of deformities.Including an extra finger on each hand and a crumpled ear that has to be erased from pictures".

I think its great that some of the most to be seen as "beautiful" women are and weren't born perfect, I also think she is an almost inspiration to young women out there who have birth defects.
