Why is Georgia May Jagger a nominee for the British Fashion Awards 2009?

The nominees for the British Fashion Awards have been announced and I am dumbfounded by the nominees for best model of the year. Daisy Lowe, Georgia May Jagger and Rosie Huntington Whiteley have been nominated for the model of the year award. Now I understand why Rosie has been nominated for model of the year. She has been in campaigns for Agent Provocateur, Dolce and Gabanna and she is the UK's first Victoria Secret Angel. Now whats totally got me up in arms is why Georgia May Jagger and Daisy Lowe are nominated. I don't even really class them as models, they are more-so socialites.

I don't think Georgia May Jagger has been one of the biggest models this year. Infact I don't even consider her a true model. She hasn't even done that much modelling. She had a jeans campaign and the cover of Vogue. If that qualifies you for model of the year then maybe the British Fashion Council should have nominated, Lily Allen for "Best Model". She has done multiple fashion covers ( Elle, Nylon, I-D, GQ) this year and she has had a Chanel campaign. I think the awards are losing a bit of credibility by including Georgia Jagger on their list.

The rest of the nominees are listed below

Best Model - Daisy Lowe, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Georgia-May Jagger.
Emerging Talent Award for Ready-to-Wear - Peter Pilotto, Meadham Kirchhoff, Mark Fast.
Emerging Talent Award for Accessories - Holly Fulton, Camilla Stovgaard, Jessica McCormack, Maria Francesca Pepe.
Designer Brand award - Burberry, Mulberry and Pringle of Scotland.
Menswear Designer - Graeme Fidler for Aquascutum, Kim Jones for Dunhill, Todd Lynn.
BFC British Collection of the Year - Christopher Kane, Erdem, Jonathan Saunders.
Accessory Designer - Emma Hill for Mulberry, Katie Hillier, Nicholas Kirkwood.

The winner of the awards will be announced on the 9th of December.
