Internet goes gaga over Grandpa's modeling shots for fashion store

11/19/2012

Stylish senior citizen Liu Xianping has found Internet fame with the snazzy modeling shots he's contributed to his granddaughter's online clothing store. Why? Because the store, Yuekou, is for teen girls. Liu, 72, certainly knows how to work that camera and his sassy poses have apparently helped the Chinese store's sales increase fivehold since his photos spread like wildfire. The groovy grandpa is perfectly fine with his fashion-forward role: "Modeling for the store is helping my granddaughter and I have nothing to lose. We were very happy on the day of the shooting. I'm very old and all that I care about is to be happy." That, and successful accessorizing. [Source]
