Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

Or the writer of that piece was making a poorly constructed joke. Or it was in a press release that the writer took as fact when it was meant as a joke. Who knows?
