Gemma Arterton Was Born With Six Fingers

New Bond girl Gemma Arterton has revealed that she was born with some deformities - an extra finger on each hand and a "crumpled ear".

The 22-year-old revealed that as a baby she underwent treatment to have her extra digits removed, which involved having the sixth fingers "tied" so they fell off naturally - leaving her with small lumps on the side of her hands.

The St. Trinians beauty also had an operation on her ear to give it a more defined shape.I was born with lots of deformities, Contactmusic quoted her, as telling British magazine InStyle.

Including an extra finger on each hand and a crumpled ear that has to be erased from pictures, she added.
