A TEENAGER from Radcliffe is hoping to give glamour model Jordan a run for her money in the modelling stakes.

Rhian Sugden, aged 19, is now following her dream full-time after giving up her job as a network administrator for Global Telecoms and Technology in Bury.

Just two months after deciding to become a glamour model and organising a portfolio of photographs, Rhian has been snapped up by London modelling agency Samantha Bond, whose previous clients include Jordan.

Her first professional pictures appeared on Page Three of The Sun earlier this week and has been signed up for more shoots.

The former Coney Green High School pupil hopes to become one of the most popular models in England, and has the full support of her parents, Anita and Stephen, and her sister, Zena, aged 30.

Anita said: "Rhian has a good figure and people are always saying she could be a model, so two months ago, she decided to give it a go. It's all happened really quickly, but she's very excited and we're all so proud of her.

"She hopes to become one of the top models in the country, and I am sure she will do that. The modelling agency has big plans for her. "Everyone is convinced she will go far."
