Model Niki Taylor Hospitalized After Crash

May 1 -- Supermodel Niki Taylor is in critical condition in an Atlanta hospital after suffering severe internal injuries in a weekend car crash, her agent told Reuters today.

Taylor, 26, was a passenger in a car that crashed in Atlanta early on Sunday, said Lou Taylor of TriStar Management agency.

In a brief statement, the agent said the driver, who was not identified, lost control of the car and struck a pole. The driver was also critically injured, publicist Scott DeMunn told The Associated Press. No other vehicles were involved, according to media reports.

The 26-year-old Taylor, who is from Florida, is one of the world's top models; she made a name for herself when she was just 13.
