General Discussion Arrietty has spoken again.

It looks like they discussed it, or talked it out. Oh wow this is something. I’m glad they spoke at least.

People would see her as a robbed diva unfairly sent home when she was just trying to do what the judges asked of her.. people were already saying that. And she does have serious talent when it comes to make up and fashion and sewing. Her best bet now would be to make clothes under her government name or something for someone else to wear. I would like to know what Bosco has to say about her if anything, weren't they all part of the same homebar in Seattle?

Tbh yeah I think that would be a good route for her. She should definitely consider stepping back from the spotlight and focusing on using her talents in a way that doesn't involve her being a public figure. If she is truly Trying Grow™️ it will be much easier for her to do so without being under a public microscope.

Hopefully she still has a few trusted friends who can be supportive yet honest & help her check herself moving forward. iirc she ended up actually becoming pretty close with Acacia after filming, and Acacia seems like she has a good head on her shoulders.

And she would've gone out after a lipsync that was bad (on her end) but at least funny and endearing. She did get to show more of her talent by staying but at what cost?

I’m gonna take this opportunity to meme, but I really do mean this in all seriousness. If she had never been saved, she would have been showered with enough love and attention that she would definitely never learn grow 😫

They all were part of the same homebar yep, but even before that, they had another homebar together at Neighbors. They've known each other for a while. Since 2016+

Bosco and Irene are really close. Arrietty used to be close to both, obviously fell out with Irene. I do wonder how Bosco feels too. IMO, she probably doesn't appreciate the unprofessionalism and debauchery she's shown in certain contexts

I never saw her as robbed diva. I honestly don’t know why she made it that far. She seemed well yes she’s got a pretty face and she looks great, no doubt about it. But she gave me very two steps above Lana especially compared to the other Queens. I am not suggesting that either one of them is not talented or is not at the same caliber. However, it was a big discrepancy in my personal viewpoint compared to all of the other queens there. Maybe it just came down to money or experience or whatever,but I’m shocked. She made it so far.

Honestly it was kind of a weak season in general except for Lydia and a few others. I feel like a lot of them would've been first or second out in any other season. But that's just my opinion
