Here’s an assortment of photos of Cara Delevingne at Glastonbury and Hyde Park over the weekend. She was doing the music festival circuit and she seems to be basically wearing the same outfit at both events. These photos are a good example of why I’ve never really understood Cara’s model status –she totally blends into the crowd. She looks like every other girl. Even when Kate Moss looks like a hot mess, she’s still watchable, she’s still Kate Moss, she still has that It Factor. Cara just… isn’t It.

But I’m probably going to have to stop bitching about Cara’s modeling career soon, because she’s really going after an acting career, often to the detriment of her modeling career (she’s barely walked two runways in six months!). Cara was cast as Enchantress in Suicide Squad, and she chatted about the film and superheroines with Empire. Some highlights:

“There are only three girls in [Suicide Squad] but in my opinion they have the best roles. Generally though, superhero movies are totally sexist. Female superheroes are normally naked or in bikinis. No-one would be able to fight like that. Wonder Woman, how the hell does she fight? She would be dead in a minute.”

Delevingne recently insisted that she has no plans to give up modeling despite her blossoming acting career. Delevingne added that her ideal superhero power would not be controlling minds as Enchantress does, but shape-shifting like Jennifer Lawrence’s Mystique from X-Men.

“I’d like to be a tree if I wanted to, or a paper clip,” she said.

Wait, can Mystique do inanimate objects? Can she turn into a paper clip? I thought she could only do people. As for superhero movies and whether they’re “sexist” – of course they are. The majority of superhero films are sexist full-stop. Most women in superhero movies have terrible, sexist costumes, full-stop. There should be more representation of women in superhero movies, full-stop. Is Cara Delevingne to the one to take up this cause? Eh. Doesn’t Enchantress basically wear skin-tight leather pants and a bustier?
