I am 34..

And guess what else? Gia Jordan isn't my real name either.

My age has never been a secret in the industry, but I always listed my my birth year as 1980 in bios and bts interviews. Everyone told me that I looked 23 when I started in the industry in 2003, so it made sense to keep my published age consistant with my appearance.

We're in the entertainment industry; age discrimination exists. I created a stage age just as I created a stage name. Producers and directors might have been reluctant to hire someone my age, but then they met me and it was never an issue. Sure, it may have been a mistake to create an alternate age for myself, but I feel that it was a professional decision which worked out to my benefit in the end.

Thank you,

gia jordan
