This Victoria's Secret model with A+ name recognition has a PhD in math. She used her mother's maiden name while she was going to school. Apparently her dissertation is a must read among academics and there are not even any pictures in it.
Turns out I was actually thinking of Gal Gadot, who served in the Israeli military and studied law. But Gadot isn't a VS model and I know nothing of Bar except her name. I have no basis for guessing Bar Refaeli now but I'll let it stand.
I did some Wikipedia snooping and can rule out Banks, Gisele, and Naomi - all have their mothers' maiden names listed and Google searches reveal nothing. Ambrosio and Klum do not have listed maiden names. Upton is like 21 - I don't think she'd be able to get a PhD that quickly.
I so wish people wouldn't hide these things, though it makes sense that intelligent people know enough to keep their personal lives off the grid. It would be nice to let kids know that you can be brainy and non-self-destructive and work in entertainment at the same time.
Banks was going to be my guess too. But then again, I can't imagine she wouldn't be reminding everyone of that every chance she got. So, def can not be her.
She's now a former Victoria's Secret model... but Gisele Bundchen? She's old enough to have gone through a PhD program, and definitely has A+ name recognition.
No way it's Tyra. She made a huge thing about taking that continuing education program for business people at Harvard. She's really into the idea of being viewed as an intelligent model.
I have no idea why this is a blind. This is awesome!!!!
I can see keeping it quiet while going to school. Getting a PhD is hard y'all! Don't need the added pressure of people watching you to see if you can do it. Or other students wandering around the campus trying to spot you. But once you earn it? Put that on blast!!!!!
I honestly don't follow models unless Leo has had a run at them but, I vaguely remember a Canadian girl doing an interview several years ago on a minor cable fashion show. There was a mention about her wanting to get her dissertation done before going down to NY. But I don't remember her name nor any other names of models from Canada. Just a thought.
It doesn't say former, but a current one would have to be a super genius, because they're way too young for P.h.D. Probs Lyndsey Scott (although does she have A+ recognition?), or a former one like Giselle or Bar. She could come out and be a role model, but from her perspective, I understand why she'd want to keep it private.
My boyfriend had a PhD by 25 but he is a freak of nature. I'm years older than that and still have 1-2 years left.
Some programs in the US can even be a crock of shit. James Franco cough cough. I've also seen plenty of shitty dissertations. Most respectable universities won't put their stamp of approval on shit work, but I've seen a couple Van Wilders (what I call grad students in their 6+ years in a program) who did subpar work and the university they were at just wanted to axe them.
My guess is that the actress and her dissertation committee/department don't WANT the news about her enrollment -let alone her research- put out there because it would be embarrassing and devalue the school's rep.
Degrees are starting to mean less and less when PE teachers are hosting relationship talk shows.
Danica McKellar wrote some pretty good books about math for girls. I was disappointed when she went on Dancing with the Stars, but Bill Nye did it, too, so there's that...
It's MALES who don't have enough blood to operate both a brain and a penis at the same time. There's nothing about being female that stops you from being smart and sexy simultaneously.
She probably used her mother's maiden name so that her dissertation would be judged on its merits and not on who wrote it. I have a feeling that it is a must read because it is good.
Tyra is at Harvard Business School, but that would result in a masters in business administration. She could have finished a doctorate in math prior to that. I don't think the B School is as keen to accept less than qualified entertainers as is the undergraduate stage of the university.
It may be she isn't hiding her Ph.D from the world, but was hiding her identity from other students to avoid distractions. If they know she's a big star, there'd be paparazzi all over, everyone wanting autographs and pictures. Hiding her identity lets her be just another student.
That's why this blind doesn't make much sense Zeeky. She would presumably go under the radar while there, so as to deflect attention and earn to credit on her own merit. But if she already earned it, it makes zero sense to keep it under wraps unless it can't hold up under scrutiny or peer review. When someone spends years studying and contributing to a field, they want to put their work out there and fuck, she's earned that right. More so, the school would normally jump to say they had a VS model get a PHD in math
upton isnt too young technically. i have a friend who had her phd by 23. she took phd classes during her undergrad. it was an excellerated 5yr undergrad and phd program. ridic.
Miranda?
ReplyDeleteUpton actually I think
ReplyDeleteI doubt that one
DeleteKlum
ReplyDeleteKlum
ReplyDeleteDoesn't say foreign born(if u still do that enty) which is why I went Upton....
ReplyDeleteTiegen
ReplyDeleteTyra Banks
ReplyDeleteUpton is too young. A PhD in the US is usually 3-6 years, but can be done quicker in other countries
ReplyDeleteAmbrosio?
ReplyDeleteAmbrosio is in the DM and she fits the A+, which he's used cuz of her initials
DeleteWell, whoever it is needs to shout it from the rooftops, to encourage other girls to strive for great academic success!! Out her, Enty!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI really hope it's Heidi Klum. She's the only one that I would actually want to have a conversation with. Im Deutsch, naturlich!
ReplyDeleteBar Rafeali
ReplyDeleteTurns out I was actually thinking of Gal Gadot, who served in the Israeli military and studied law. But Gadot isn't a VS model and I know nothing of Bar except her name. I have no basis for guessing Bar Refaeli now but I'll let it stand.
DeleteSo, it's a must read because... it sucks? It's gotta be ok, since she apparently earned her phd.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Kate Upton has modeled for Victoria's Secret.
ReplyDeleteIt's Klum or Ambrosio. Ambrosio fits for the reasons above, but I could see this as Klum, who has been photographed at math museums
ReplyDeleteyou mean, there's a Dr. Model out there and it's being hushed up? whatever for?
ReplyDeleteLyndsey Scott is a model by day and programmer by night...

ReplyDeleteAlso eliminate Adriana Lima.

ReplyDeleteThere are only a handful of VS models with A+ list name recognition.
ReplyDeleteSo why is this so hard??
its probably someone foreign. in their country that PhD probably amounts to an educated butcher here.
ReplyDelete((crickets))
...i'll see myself out------>

If it were Miranda Kerr it would not be a secret. She is a famewhore.

Not Doutzen Kroes. She is so dumb, it hurts me to watch her talk.
ReplyDeleteI am guessing Heidi, eventhough I don't like her, she seems pretty intelligent!
upton is not vs material
ReplyDeletekloss too young
i think this is either erin heatherton or lindsey ellingson
they are angels, and a-list in victoria's secret, not hollywood.
Some old school Angels:
ReplyDeleteStephanie Seymour
Helena Christensen
Could be one of them?
(Or Klum).

i love this comment
ReplyDelete@aimless sectator
Lindsey Scott?
ReplyDeleteNo way it is Alessandra Ambrosio, and Klum doesn't have time for that.
She probably used her mother's maiden name so that her dissertation would be judged on its merits and not on who wrote it. I have a feeling that it is a must read because it is good.

ReplyDeleteAdriana Lima?
ReplyDeleteTyra did an extension course, she was not accepted into nor did she complete Harvard's formal MBA program.
ReplyDeleteOoooh ooohh!! @sugar! This kind reminds me! I got one more joke for you!

ReplyDeleteYou're getting your PhD, @Lady Heisenberg? Good for you, my long-lost sister from Robin Williams-look-alike Daddy! :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Chop Chop! I love it. Big HeisenHugs to our RW look alike Daddies!!! <3
ReplyDelete@GeorgieBuns GOT IT!!! yeah, Lyndsay scott has a cultlike following as a Hawt computer coder

ReplyDeleteA very quiet Turlington? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christy_Turlington
ReplyDeleteIt's Erin Heatherton
ReplyDeleteApparently it's Lindsey Scott but i have no idea who she's.
ReplyDeleteShe talked about her passion for "coding" in some mags
No way this is Heidi. She would've made sure that every single person knows about it.
ReplyDeleteupton isnt too young technically. i have a friend who had her phd by 23. she took phd classes during her undergrad. it was an excellerated 5yr undergrad and phd program. ridic.
ReplyDeleteHow about Marissa Miller? Or Laetitia Casta?
