Can someone comfirm that Marisa Miller's Birth year is 1980, and not 1978.
The birth year is 1978, not 1980. This is given in Perfect 10 magazine, as well as on IFDB.com --Alsayid 18:27, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
However on Sports illustrated website it states that Marisa's age is 25; this would mean she was born in 1980 and not 1978. Also on the askmen website it states that Marisa was born in 1980. --Kurt000 13:07, 15 February 2006 (GMT)

I've seen that too, and that's probably what causes the confusion. But the thing is, one doesn't even give a birthday, and the other only gives a year. Both Perfect 10 and IMDB give an exact birthday same as the one used here, and should be considered more accurate. Also look at it this way: If Marissa had been born in 1980, she would have been 16 or 17 when she posed for Perfect 10 in their premiere issue published in the summer of 1997. Then consider that her pictures have since been republished in the magazine several times without incident. --Alsayid 21:33, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
I see your point, and now agree that you probably are right. However when typing in Marisa Miller birthdate onto google it states that it is 27 April 1980, according to wikipedia! Also on the Marisa Miller club website it also states her birthdate as 27 April 1980. --Kurt000 14:49, 16 February 2006 (GMT)
My verson of explanation is because of there are at least two more Marisa Miller popularly known (although with different middle names), her birthday was probably confused with other others. 24/08/06
Yeah, I tracked that down a while back, too. The thing with the search enginge seems to be that it might keep a record of an old edit forever, and then other sites just copy and paste whatever they first found on Wikipedia or Google (at the time they searched) into their fanclub. Recently there was a big stink because someone discovered that an anonymous editor had added his name to the JFK article as a suspect in the shooting, and it sat there for like six months! Anyway, glad to have you aboard on this article, Kurt. :-) --Alsayid 17:27, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] italian?
it seems her real name was Marisa Bertetta..............—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.208.60.202 (talk • contribs).
- I have heard of this, but I could not find any proper links which could verify this. Any help regarding this matter would be much appreciated. Kurt000 21:42, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Birthdate?
1980 doesn't work for any of the below articles. I'll agree that none of the below are the New York Times, and they are all from a single reporter ( Peggy Townsend ).
However, when it comes to accuracy of a model's age, I don't think I'd trust SI.

[edit] Shooting Hoops
Ms. Miller is an accomplished basketball aficianado. She can regularly be spotted posting up in the back yard. If you are really lucky she can be seen tossing in layups from the paint without her top on. Google Marisa Miller basketball for a taste. proserpine March 12 2007.
