WA has never been a bully or a mean girl and has always helped others with hair and makeup, wardrobe, and been a support for anyone who needs it, including ensuring that programs treat contestants fairly by speaking up for herself and others. WA Misunderstood is correct that she does not have a bubbly, sicky sweet personality, is direct in her speaking, and often keeps to herself, especially in competition. That does not make one a mean girl or a bully. These are statements of people who do not know her, who have lost to her or are jealous of her, or who have a problem with her LGBT status. WA has been a target of hate from those last two categories on a number of occasions and because she is a person who stands out and is competitive, unfortunately these types of personal attacks will likely continue. It is a shame that people use these forums to vent their own insecurities and inadequacies rather than to support and praise young women who are out there giving their all. All of the young women who participated in MVA this past weekend brought their best and should be proud of what they accomplished. Anyone who thrives on breaking young women down and spewing hate should take that energy and do something positive in their own lives instead.

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: Again, personal experiences with the WA titleholder shouldn't be discounted. She is notorious in multiple systems and goes up to her fellow contestants to tell them what's wrong with their performance WITHOUT being asked. One of my contestants was talking about how excited she was to have a certain group of people in the audience for her, and WA went up to her to tell the contestant how terrible of people her supporters were and why. Doing this without asking is called BULLYING, especially during a competition. If she actually kept to herself, she wouldn't be going up to girls with unwarranted "advice" as i am sure shes tries to twist it.
