I think most models here would agree that you won't get far without some amount of intelligence and savvy.

I understand that. It's just that when I watched her interviews it was really off-putting.
Yeah I think so too. There are so many beautiful young women constantly becoming models that in order to stick around I think you need some professionalism and intelligence. Whether Daphne has this or not, I don't know.
IQ mightn't be a fundamental box to tick but a model with a foolish head on their shoulders will struggle compared to one who is able to conduct themselves intelligently and professionally, hold a conversation and assist in moulding their career and contacts effectively. The way you're perceived can be just as pivotal as your physical appearance. It's not necessarily about technical book smarts but common sense

She doesn't look as Angry Birds-like here, but it took me FOREVER to find one where she didn't
Is that really Daphne G? She looks so different, more like Lara S or Emily B.

Fortunately and unfortunately, the success of your long and arduous mission came at the expense of accuracy.

Ok, I was in no way trying to say that models are dumb, or that intelligence/savvy/whatever you want to call it is not a good thing for them to have and can help their career. of course it can and does! ALL I was saying is that IQ/intelligence/etc is not a requirement for the job, the same way that appearance is not a requirement to be a math teacher--but it obviously can help.

Oh wow, she actually looks great here. Very cute and quirky. I love how good she looks in the black skinny jeans and black top.
