Yeah....how 'bout that?
I heard about it on "Fox and Friends" this morning, watching the news.
I couldn't believe, that there are other girls out there, wanting to win so badly, that they are capable of doing just about ANYTHING, and have no qualms about enjoying their "triumph".
They and that reason alone makes me sick!
Good for her....she won, fair and square, despite the sabotaging bit!!!
I'll be rooting for her all the way.
How can anybody EVER be "too experienced"?????!!!!!!!!!

This freaks me out because I compete in ballroom dance. We have a fair share of cattiness and jealousy that goes on, but never anything like this. I'm not into beauty pageants, but ballroom dance competitions are kind of similar to a beauty contest in a way. What's to stop some weirdo from doing this very same thing to your costumes or makeup at a dance comp? You can't watch your stuff all the time, especially while you're out dancing in a heat! It's pretty scary.
