"Katie Thornton, one of the truly great SCORE Girls of the last decade, started modeling when she was 18 years old. Katie, who's from Manchester, England, sent her test shots to an agent two days after her 18th birthday, and the rest is history. She was 24 years old when she started modeling for SCORE and won Newcomer of the Year. ""I get recognized a lot by people in the UK,"" Katie said. That's an interesting phenomenon. Big-boobed girls are celebrities in the UK. It goes back to Linsey Dawn McKenzie, who was already well-known in the UK when she debuted in SCORE, as well as Samantha Fox, Linda Lusardi and Tracey Neve in the 1980s. At the time, the legal age for modeling nude in the UK was 16, so by the time LDM took her knickers off for us, people knew her. And then, of course, she went out with, and snogged (well, she did more than snog him), soccer superstar David Beckham.
