English supermodel Agyness Deyn has been dropped from the Burberry campaigns for reportedly being too famous. Photographer Mario Testino, Burberry’s “advertising visionary,” is sick of seeing her face, a “checked-cap mole” said:

“She was just a flash in the pan. Last year she was quirky but now she is challenging [Kate] Moss in the fame stakes by positioning herself everywhere. That kind of popularity just hasn’t sat well with Mario, who is looking for something different.”

Deyn’s rumored replacement is 21-year-old Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, last seen on the arm of Christopher Bailey at the Met’s Costume Institute gala. It all comes together now
