5. Go to Youtube and listen to her elocution during the documentary, Born Rich.

She sounds like a Valley Girl.




Ivanka took lessons on how to speak like the Old Rich.

She has stage craved herself into a Fake Made for TV character just like her Father. Watched Theater Arts people transform some real ugly Ducklings into real knock out performers through the years . Once one learns how to do the "turn on"the rest is easy. Still the ugly Duck inside of that shell. That part rarely changes.

9. Except I went to college with children of some of the real "old rich" and they don't talk like that.

And their parents don't either.

But yes -- that video is typical Ivanka and why I've never been able to stand her snobby self.

6. I wonder what she would really sound like, without elocution lessons?

Either way, she's still a brainless idiot.

10. She would have some sort of a NY accent probably -- unless she went to a diverse boarding school.

It's possible to live in NY/NJ and have a nondescript, hard-to-place, accent -- but probably not when your father talks like Trump.

4. She is trying not to have any expression.

She's got these super-dramatic parents, both of them, and she seems to want to be "classy" instead.

Botox also limits your expressiveness. Just sayin'.

Did you see Trump is bemoaning that he isn't allowed to call his daughter "beautiful" because it's not politically correct?

Actually, the objection is:
1) Trump joined in when Howard Stern called Ivanka a "piece of ass".
2) He has another daughter, about whom he's only talked boobs, and that was when she was an infant. He probably doesn't mean her here.
3) He has a wife generally regarded as attractive. But he saves his compliments for a daughter.
4) Ick.

11. Her husband speaks in the same manner.

I recall doing a double-take the first time I heard him speak, and suspect he, too, has had elocution lessons. Their conversations must be a stilted bore.
