Cory Kennedy, the web-celeb teenager, who has partied all over the world before even graduating from high school, is about to become a beauty icon, Fashionista reports. She's set to be the next face of Urban Decay cosmetics, with ads appearing in magazines, billboards, and in-store promotional signs. Considering her sometimes-messy, adventurous style, I think she's a good fit for the brand. That said, it kinda turns me off from Urban Decay, because I'm not exactly a fan of the dilated-pupils look. What do you think? Good fit, or not so much?

I am not a fan of hers at all. I could go on about why not, but I'll spare the readers here.
1I actually think she'd be a decent fit...Nice job Bella on the dilated puils remark me nearly choke on my drink, haha!
2pupils I meant...oops
3Meh, I don't really think I am a fan either...
4I don't even know who she is. What's the deal with this girl?
5Yeah, who is she anyway?
We have way too many so-called "web celebs". Has she contributed anything worthwhile to anything, or did she just post some videos of herself on Youtube or something and now she's "famous" ?
6Even though Urban Decay has always touted itself as an "edgy" brand, I think they could have found someone at least healthier looking. I checked her out on Wikipedia and her blog-she writes in that semi-literate, tween style. Bleh.
7eh. Seems like they could have found a more recognizable celeb. I don't even know who she is.
8Interesting!
9I don't know who she is but judging by that picture she's not too stunning.
10I personally don't care who's advertising the brand, so long as it's decent makeup. However if I had to choose I'd say that it was a turn off.
Um I have never heard of this girl.
11this girl annoys the crap out of me. she's just like paris hilton- famous for doing absolutely nothing.
12Don't know who she is, don't much care especially after reading herjoiedevivre comment; I'm a lot tired of celebs, web-celebs, heiress-celebs, etc. it's all getting quite old and boring. Yes, I do change the channel and don't read People magazine - never did.
13this is a good story that explains who she is. Basically, when she was 15 and in ninth grade, she went to a lot of shows and got her picture taken by a then-20 photographer who goes by the name The Cobrasnake. They started dating, he took tons of photos for his website, and she became a fashion icon of sorts.
14If you look at her and think of Urban Decay, I think she looks good. If you look at her and think of say, normal or girl-next-door, I think she looks terrible. She has the type of look that is more of a personality and way of life than a face. So yes, Urban Decay + Cory = A+
15Interesting story.... but I still don't know if she should be the face of Urban Decay.
16I don't find her very attractive.
17Vile!
18She looks like a waitress at Chili's in that pic.
19urban decay used to be soooo much better with the old packaging! i used to love the lipgloss:(
20Get this girl a shower and a hairbrush, STAT!!
21I'm not one to knock someone's facial features however I don't like her look; what about her would make me want to look like her? I don't support her lifestyle either.
22I...don't see the charisma/appeal/whatever this girl has at all. If not showering, looking like I smell bad, and having dead eyes will make me famous, then I guess I'm doing something wrong
23um, no. UD can be edgy & fun & young without promoting underage drinking & rampent drug use
24Wha-wha-what?? I dont even know who this girl is....
dilated pupils??? I'm lost...lol.
25Bleh! Maybe being in Nylon or modeling for some funky clothing line suits her (She's pretty fascinating to watch if you know anything about Cobrasnake), but a MAKEUP line? Ick! The only makeup she ever wears is four-day-old eyeliner running down her face and she always looks like she hasn't slept in days.
26I hope that she wears a lot more makeup than she is in this picture. She looks like a drug addict and it's not exactly a good look for a cosmetics company.
27Lame, why not just pick up some random druggie on the corner cuz that's what she looks like. I haven't liked UD ever since they ditched the lippies and nails. Gash ruled!
28meh, i dont like UD anyways
29I don't think she's very attractive. She looks drugged in that pic.
30if urban decay wants that image, great for them...not so sure i would have chosen that image
31Who is she and why should we care? Seriously, our (faux) celebrity-crazed culture is insane.
32Well I'm not familiar with Urban Decay or this chick but if I saw that mug looking back at me from a makeup ad, makeup commercial, makeup package, whatever.... I wouldn't buy it!
33Another chick famous for doing nothing but getting her picture taken. How fascinating. This will not make me want to purchase any UD as she does not look healthy and does not ever look like she takes any care with herself or her appearance.
34oh look another talentless rich little nobody who will become infamous and make us all look at her drunk A$$ in tights.
35I don't think she's cute. I like her pictures, but that's more to do with the layout of them. The photographer is obviously talented, but she's just another skinny girl in need of a good shower.
36ick. i really can't stand the idea of making someone the face of your beauty campaign when she's just another girl making a "name for herself" by partying, doing drugs, wearing awful clothing, and pushing that whole LA hipper-than-thou aesthetic. i wish companies would wise up to glorifying terrible behavior and that they are teaching the younger set that in order to have a "wonderful life" you've got to party and be drunk all the damn time.
ick.
37She totally looks like she is on drugs. I am not sure, I don't think it's a good fit but I could change my mind depending on how they swing it.
38i've never heard of or seen this girl before in my life. oh well.
39Who is she? I agree that she looks messy, though. Meh.
40I'm more upset that they don't make my favorite nail polish color anymore. =(
41Um, wow, she's not very pretty. Maybe this is to prove that their makeup works wonders!
42ick
43I've never heard of her, and she looks a) stoned and b) stupid. Not edgy, or in any way a good fit for UD. Shame.
44I don't know who she is.
I'll have to read the article Bella posted above...
I don't think that picture is too flattering of her though!
45Ewwwww!!! How could UD use her as a model?! I didn't know who she was till a few minutes ago, and though the pictures look all right, the pic Bella has here is hideous! And she looks like a crack addict with those vapid eyes...
46I agree with LittleLady12 200%.She hardly wears make-up in any of the photos I've seen of her.She always looks drunk or druggie.Personally I think UD could have picked a better person.Well it isn't going to stop me from buying UD anyway
