How do Jeremy and Cory Know Eachother?

cory kennedy by jeremy scott 1.jpgWhenever I see pictures of Cory Kennedy everywhere, we always want to ask, exactly what is she? But lately, I’ve come to realize that, at best, she’s basically a model.

Hear me out - she’s been the face of Urban Decay, she sprinkles hipster stardust on whomever’s in her vicinity, and she became famous in the first place because of some inexplicable attachment people felt to photographs of her that took over the internet/pop culture world.

Even still, we were a little surprised to come across these pictures of her shot by Jeremy Scott for Celeste.

We’re not sure why we actually really like them - maybe it’s because she’s actually working it in true model form in each photo, or maybe we’re just one of the millions that can’t look away - but we do, and so we’re wondering:

Is this the beginning of Cory, Actual Model?

You decide.

enough of this beast. by posting about her, it only keeps her in the public eye for a moment longer. if we all just stop acknowledging she exits, she'll disappear!

She definitely is an "it" girl but what "it" is exactly, I have no idea.

It is what it is.

I guess designers (or at least Jeremy) like that look - eyes rolled back into their heads, bloated and "just got out of Belvue" look.

That's it! The new look is called "shortbus". That Cory. She's so shortbus...

She actually always looks like she's about to OD on heroin. Not into it at all.

#6: Be serious. CK looks like ass in nearly every photo of her I've seen. She is endlessly annoying, a la Paris Hilton, really. No one is "hating" we're all just sick of it.

yes, Cory and Jeremy are pals. They run in the same social circles. This just more self promotion and apparently it's working since they've got Fashionista thinking she's a real model!

Say what you may about Cory's rise to fame, look, style, or Hipster following, yet all I can say about Cory is that she really is a nice person to work with in real life... So many people in this industry are snobby and ingratreful, yet Cory is a gracious and sweet person and while at work knows how to professionally separate her social life from her career as a model

#1 - wasn't that Gawker's strategy? And she just got bigger.

I've never understood her appeal. When I first saw her on the Cobrasnake I was curious mainly about where her parents were and why a 14 year old with horrid skin was appearing so heavily on the site. It was her age that made her stand out, nothing more.

Definitely not a model.
