It was nice to read more encouraging comments last night from Miss Universe New Zealand 2007 contestants in my private email. Most had seen the other blog where I have been defending both the judging and Laural Barrett herself, and concluded that the negative comments were probably motivated by sour grapes. They disspelled the rumours, which was refreshing.
   Funny how anonymity encourages the dark side of human behaviour, and in the blogosphere, the veil is so much easier to get and maintain.
   One of these days, I will start using aliases. I know some Hollywood friends do it, but I am nowhere nearly as famous as they are. (I do notice that I am nearly up to the same amount of Google references as one well known actress though!)
   I kind of did become acting pageant director in Val’s absence when Radio Live called me on Easter Day trying to secure an interview with Laural for this morning! Hopefully it went down well. I was awoken at 4 a.m. by a phone call and consequently got up later than planned this morning.
   I am sensing that more people than I credited can see through The Press’s article and the forces behind it. The American end should know that it was all “just another Rosie O’Donnell” and it appears it has not raised any eyebrows. We might just let sleeping dogs lie this week.
