'''The Popular Girl''' (or simply '''Popular Girl''') is a gossipy teenager who made her most noteworthy appearance on <i>Daria</i> in "[[The Invitation]]," with her only speaking role. She only appeared occasionally
==History==
In "[[The Invitation]]
In the shooting script she was called "Popular Girl One", with Tiffany being called "Popular Girl Two"; Sandi still had a name.
She never speaks again after this episode. The "Oh, the Obscurity!" feature on MTV's old ''Daria'' website says, tongue in cheek, "she dropped out of sight shortly thereafter [her debut]. (Sandi probably had something to do with it)".▼

She appears 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. She's been seen hanging with "[http://www.theangstguy.com/backgrounders/016.html Orange Girl]" a number of times; the two are probably friends.▼

Since she had no name in the series, [[Austin Covello]] gave her the name '''Tori Jericho''' in his spring 1999 fanfic, "[[Boy Fiend]]." Austin continued to use this name in other stories (e.g., "[[Otherwise Known as Quinn the Great]]"), and the practice has since been widely adopted by other fanfic writers. (Austin even parodied his creation of the name in an [[AU]] tale, "Stacy Rowe, Evangelion Pilot.")
Tori's personality has remained stable through most fanfics featuring her: a mildly irksome, shallow, rumor-mongering popularity princess who likes attention and dislikes Daria.
In [[Brother Grimace]]'s "[[It's All About Respect]]," Tori is shown as on-air reporter/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]] stories as [[Lawndale High]]'s "one-stop gossip shop and popularity gauge on legs."
