More than a clothes horse

I'd be the first to say that the Duchess of Cambridge, Catherine Middleton, is gorgeous. But it frustrates me that all that the media has to report on her is she wore this! or she wore that! Come on, she has a degree, she's an intelligent woman. Can't we have something of more substance to say about her other than her outer appearance? It feels as if her role is reduced to looking pretty and staying quiet.

On a tangent, don't you feel that the media always wants to make a fashion icon out of nearly anyone who's famous? Why do you have to be fashionable if you're famous? I'd hate to have that pressure if I were famous. If I were famous (God forbid), I'd glamourise dagginess.
