Very good point. I think Amy must feel very self-assured and confident because society has deemed her a beautiful woman. In fact, the Miss Universe competition is validation of that in itself. She has to be careful of being over-confident. (Not saying she is or has been shown to be, but perhaps something we've not seen has rubbed the girls up the wrong way). It could just be that even if she were a life-size cardboard cut-out, it would have the same effect of an ever reminding of her fellow female campmates flaws in the beauty stakes. Who really wants to wake up to a female Madonna everyday to remind themselves how unworthy they are in comparison? This is not Amy's fault, but insecure women might feel that way. Rebecca for example.

Rebecca on the otherhand, needs to grow a thicker skin and value herself more and get out of the victim mode status. It doesn't serve her well and lessens any respect that people have for her if she herself can't rise above the comments made about her.
Just my tuppence worth.
