(in all fairness, if anyone is a "slut" it's Sam - that's all she went on about on her audition tape!) could it not possibly mean she's actually insecure about her size? think about it, if she was comfortable with her looks why would she lie about her dress size?
no, her calling Sam names isn't right but if people have a problem with that they should say so instead of calling her names in return. it doesn't even make sense to call someone names cos they're calling someone else names cos you're only invalidating your argument.”

I agree with what you say and thanks very much for saying it
I don't think two wrongs make a right but I suppose it's just human nature to hurl insults about people who annoy us or, who (in Lesley's case) appear awful specimens of humanity for their treatment of others for no apparent reason. I also agree that we shouldn't be slating her weight, nobody is physically perfect after all.




and its starting to hurt now
