Julie Dubela ain't havin' that business, man.
She isn't having how American Idol made her look, and she probably isn't having folks like me poking fun at her performance. Not a chance.
In an interview with her hometown newspaper, the Red Sox fan who was soundly rejected as a contestant on America's most popular show fires back fired back, saying the truth has been twisted:
"I feel like they tried to make the judges look like God and me the fool of the century," she said. "They make it look like (the judges) were giving me constructive criticism and I broke out in this diva fit. But it's like, what do you do then? They were being rude and I was trying to get that constructive criticism."
While she knew the show would more than likely use a young, confident and "precocious" young girl such as herself to boost its ratings, she was a little surprised by how "mean" the judges were.
On the clip aired on television, Dubela is shown arguing with the judges, unwilling to accept the fact they did not choose her to move on to compete in the finals in Hollywood.
"When I saw it I was laughing, because I love laughing at that girl on every other reality TV show," Dubela said. "I thought, 'Oh my God, I'm that girl.'"
I'm just going to back away from this whole story completely before I feel like we're all watching Mean Girls. Time to give her the benefit of the doubt?
