A teenager the size of a large watermelon has became the world's smallest woman after celebrating her 18th birthday. Tiny two feet tall Jyoti Amge, from Nagpur, India, celebrated the occasion with a birthday cake almost as big as her. Already widely regarded as the world's smallest girl, Jyoti is anxiously waiting for official confirmation that she has grabbed the adult title from 2ft, 3in American record holder, Bridgette Jordan. "It has been my dream to be recognised as the world's smallest woman for many years, but I have had to wait for my 18th birthday," says Jyoti. "Today I became a woman so I hope don't have to wait much longer." Jyoti, who at just 11lbs (5 kg) is half the weight of her two-a-half-year-old neighbour, has a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia, meaning she stopped growing shortly after her first birthday. Despite this she insists on being treated like any other young woman and likes nothing better than doing her make up and going clothes shopping with her friends - the only difference being that due to her tiny legs she doesn't mind being picked up and carried. "I do my make up just like taller girls and I shop along with my sisters, buy clothes with my mother and father - I do everything according to my wishes," explains Jyoti. "The biggest problem I have is that my hair is longer than me so I need help in making my hair."
