Hmmm ... seems like you have to modify it a little to make your point ... she said big, you said she said huge. And I watched the show and she said what she said in a very understated way and it was very understandable for her to say it. She has had to endure so much more than any competitor before her, at a young age. Even the announcers and judges were against her. The attacks on her were vicious in the media and blogosphere. She was in a no-win situation in the media. If she did well, the said it was only because there was a conspiracy to inflate her votes, if she did poorly they said it was because she couldn’t dance and shouldn’t have been there anyway. Yes, I believe she conducted herself with style and grace and can be forgiven for a moment of honest response. You, on the other hand, would have been perfectly poised under the same circumstances, I’m sure. Of course, taking an undeserved shot at a 20-year old online is wwwayyy classy ...

I must have missed the part where someone twisted her arm and forced her onto the show. It was her decision. Having chosen to jump head-first into the public forum then she has to be ready to accept the comments, good and bad, that are directed towards her.
