i LMAO when i accidently stumbled upon this site dedicated to what i now know to call Duck Face photo's, which as you'll immediately recognize are everywhere!!!
here's one sample from the site.
the site explains:
you know that face you make when you're about to take that deeply angled shot of yourself for myspace?
you know, the one where you push your lips together in a sort of bastardized combination of a pout and a pucker to give the impression that you've got big sexy kissable lips and way more defined cheekbones than you actually have?
it's called "duckface"
STOP DOING IT.
IT ISN'T SEXY.
YOU LOOK STUPID.
and i totally agree. ;-)

I am so guilty of this, you have no idea! I know I look stupid, but I cant seem to make this face most of the time. >.<
Ok, but wait....
When Zoolander does this, it's called a "Blue Steel", but when some lady-person on the Internet does it, it's a "duck-face"?
Double Standard much? *lol*
But seriously, the ladies could avoid some of this just by doing a full-on pucker, just a cute *kissy face* like you see....on dolls.
But hey, what do I know?

i'm not sure where the term came from actually - i've not heard of it before. it does fit tho and if you look at the site its also biting the lower lip.
maybe its blue steel for male models and duck face for women? wait a sec - there's men on the site too.

Hi
I've worked with some male models and they make Zoolander look like a genius. Really that bad.
Great film.
