The Popular Girl

The Popular Girl is a gossipy teenage girl who made just one appearance on Daria, in "The Invitation."

History

In that episode, "The 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 speculate whether "The Popular Girl" remained a student at Lawndale High, or was perhaps the graduating Fashion Club leader, passing the torch on to Sandi.

Fanfiction

Since she had no name in the series, Austin Covello gave her the name Tori Jericho in his fanfic "Boyfiend." This name has since been widely adopted in other fanfics.
