Elle 'The Body' McPherson reveals her unsightly knobbly knees at GQ awards

She certainly has a figure most women half her age would envy, but it seems even Elle McPherson can't escape the ravages of time.

The 44-year-old, known as The Body, looked a picture of perfection as she arrived at last night's GQ Men of the Year awards.

But her slinky red dress and sexy black heels couldn't hide her knobbly knees which otherwise failed to spoil her gorgeous appearance.

Despite her unsightly knees, the mother-of-two otherwise still manage to wow onlookers and waiting photographers as she posed on the red carpet.

The former model arrived at the annual awards to present rockers Primal Scream with the gong for best band of the year.

Miss McPherson joined a list of celebrities who attended the star-studded event at the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden.

The awards, presented by Lily Allen and Elton John, also saw beauties Elizabeth Hurley and Thandie Newton present awards.
