Beauty queen brighter than nuclear physicist
http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_1337537.html?menu=

A Slovenian TV programme that tried to prove top models were brainless bimbos was scrapped after a beauty queen turned out to have a higher IQ than a nuclear physicist.



Iris Mulej, a former Miss Universe contestant, was found to have an IQ of 156 by scientists working for the programme makers.

The test result forced Slovenia TV, the state broadcaster, to cancel its programme involving the model who left school at 16 to pursue a modelling career.

A spokesman for Bronz Model Management that represents Iris, 22, said: "They couldn't really do a programme making fun of dumb models when she turned out to be smarter than anyone else on the programme.

"They are now wondering if they can do a different programme about the world's smartest model, and are trying to persuade Guiness to accept it as a record category."

2. WOW!
Those are the longest, best-looking brain stems I think I have ever seen! Excuse me while I drool (in a completely intellectual way, of course).

3. "Scientists that worked for the programme makers"?
I bet they were smarter than nuclear physicists, too :P

Game show science. And to think there's not even a Nobel in that category

7. Well, I'm a scientist and she's smarter than me...
Because she probably makes $5,000 an hour. Frankly, that doesn't take a lot of brains to compare...
The problem isn't that our society is taking dumb people and rewarding them-well, ok, yes it is, but it's also that it rewards people for surface values, instead of having to use their skills.

12. serves them right
just because a woman is attractive, it doesn't mean she's only good for one thing.

13. Beautiful woman, but a Guinness record?
What's the message there?

"Breaking news! Woman in Slovenia found to be intelligent and beautiful at the same time! It's a world record!"
