Line 1:
'''The Popular Girl''' (or simply Popular Girl) is a gossipy teenage girlteenager who made her most noteworthy appearance on <i>Daria</i> in "[[The Invitation]]," with her only speaking role. She has appeared occasionally through the fifth season of ''Daria''.
 
==History==
In that"[[The episodeInvitation]], " Popular Girl" stands with [[Sandi]] and [[Tiffany]] at [[Brittany]]'s party, making snide comments about the party guests, such as, "Those three aren't popular at all. I don't know what they're doing here. Maybe some kind of exchange program." After "The Invitation," fans would speculatespeculated whether Popular Girl remained a student at [[Lawndale High]], or was perhaps the graduating Fashion Club leader, passing the torch on to Sandi. She does, however, appear in the back of classes taken by [[Quinn Morgendorffer]] and the [[Fashion Club]], indicating she is in their grade at school.
 
She is also seen in "[[Too Cute]]", standing among the group of popular girls admiring [[Brooke]]'s new nose job. Notably, she is one of the volleyball players on the team opposing Daria's in the opening scenes of each show.
 
==Fanfiction==
Since she had no name in the series, [[Austin Covello]] gave her the name '''Tori Jericho''' in his earlyspring 1999 fanfic, "[[Boy Fiend]]." This name has since been widely adopted by other fanfic writers.
 
In "[[It's All About Respect]]," Tori is shown as on-air talentreporter/anchor for [[Lion Tales]], the LHS in-school news program. It's also commented that she has a predilection for wearing '''very''' tight sweaters while on the air. This role, too, has been adopted by other writers (e.g., "Four Play," by Crusading Saint). [[Canadibrit]] has included Tori Jericho in many of her [[The Look-Alike Series]] tales as [[Lawndale High]]'s "one-stop gossip shop and popularity gauge on legs."
