She is bloody everywhere.

Looking like an above average sixth former with gawky legs and toes pointed together in ingenue pose.

She's not for our your generation, GetOrfMoiLand . Leave the young be, now!

I know. What is this fascination with unremarkable people? In our day we were obsessed with people worth reading Smash Hits for.

southeastastra · 07/02/2010 21:16

we aren't talking about her on here

expatinscotland · 07/02/2010 21:18

I think she's gorgeous.

BunnyLebowski · 07/02/2010 21:20

She is pretty but always looks like she needs a big burger and a good scrub.

GetOrfMoiLand · 07/02/2010 21:22

Lol Anna

Yes expat she is vv pretty but why can't she stand up straight? Why the knock kneed look?

GOD I am old and past it aren;t I.

haha she had passed me by - too old to know who she was.
I have now googled and discovered that she is one of those who Wears Clothes for a living.
I am always amused when models are described as being discovered by a "talent" scout...
what "Talent" would that be, then??

My daughter is going to have that exact build.

She already has it.

She was even long and skinny when she was born.

My husband is built like that, so is his mother.

DD1 had some femur test at Royal Infirmary for Sick Children when they were trying to figure out what was wrong with her (she has dyspraxia) and she'll be at least 5ft., 10in.

I turned down a big name agency kids and teens department already.

It's going to do such wonders for her self-esteem when people all suggest she eat a burger or she looks knock-kneed and gawky.

But, well, hopefully if she's as successful as Alexa she won't need to care.

expatinscotland · 07/02/2010 21:27

I like her. I think she takes the mick out of herself and like that.

GetOrfMoiLand · 07/02/2010 21:30

No no expat - wasn't meant to be horrible. Alexa has great legs, I am banging on about she always stands with her toes pointed together and looking all gauche etc.

I have a very lanky and skinny dd myself - she is 6 foot at 14 bless her (she gets the height from me, but I am unfortunately broader of hip).

It's more the Alexa style icon bit that gets on my nerves.

She does need to stand up straight, her posture is terrible. She is in her late 20's not 13.

expatinscotland · 07/02/2010 21:37

My niece is 6ft., 1in and 15.

They think she's finally stopped growing.

But most of the boys still haven't caught up with her!

VerityBrulee · 07/02/2010 21:39

I love her, clever and pretty

I especially love her hair
