That's
debatable. We have very different perceptions of what constitutes a stereotypical Valley Girl as defined in the early 1980s SFV.

Cher was so very proudly and conspicuously from Beverly Hills, though, not the Valley.
Personally, I'd say the most stereotypical Valley Girl is still Moon Unit Zappa (who delivers the monologue in the song and video)--mindlessly, effortlessly superficial and vapid, laying the accent on thick while saying absolutely nothing at all. Exhibit A for a modern day Valley Girl in real life is definitely Drew Barrymore.
