Meet the pretty teenage daughter of a taxi driver with an IQ higher than Einstein.

Lauren Marbe, 17, is the daughter of an Essex taxi driver and was invited to take part after organisers of The Bal des Débutantes were impressed by her incredibly high score in a Mensa test.She will be a guest of honor in the debutantes ball.

It was named one of the top 10 parties in the world by Forbes and boasts a glittering list of past participants, among them Ksénia Gorbachev, Barbara Berlusconi and the Ecclestone sisters.The Essex teenager has an IQ of 161, making her cleverer than Einstein and Bill Gates, and putting her miles ahead of the average of 100.
She still is a long way off the Guinness Book Of Records holder of the highest IQ - held by American magazine columnist and playwright Marylin vos Savant, who has a score of 228.

But then, at 67 years of age, Mrs vos Savant was never in a position to take Lauren's place at this year's deb ball.

The Bal des Débutantes has been a Paris institution since 1992 and brings together girls from some of the world's most glittering society families.
