"One thing that disturbs me is that she must be reading/hearing all the articles and comments about how 'unnatractive' she is. It must be difficult hearing yourself described as 'frumpy', 'overweight', 'ugly' etc."

I hope not. I heard about her on the radio here in Germany and it said that she performed in clubs. She didn't seem very nervous and I don't think she would have done a bump-and-grind in front of all those people if she didn't feel comfortable on stage.

Call me cynical*, but I think the frumpiness was a set up. I think hurtful remarks are par for the course for people who put themselves in the public eye. I do hope she doesn't let them bother her.




* Just don't call me late for dinner.
