The most talked about How Do I Look? contestant ever: Plum

OK, I’ve read it on other forums, I’ve seen it commented here, so I’m forced to address the crazy contestant that was on How Do I Look? recently.

Apparently the unappreciative makeover recipient, Plum, wasn’t very nice to Finola, which proves that if someone’s heart isn’t in it, they can’t change. I guess dressing poorly is sort of akin to being an addict (sorry for the drastic comparison). If you don’t want help, we really can’t help you.

    PLUM is a stupid bitch. Finola is awesome. Just saw this episode for the first time and I feel so bad for Lana and Arielle, but esp Finola who had to put up with her! Love how Jordan and Finola gave it to her at the end. Haha what a horrible woman plum is!

    Very rarely I feel strongly enough to comment on anything that I see on TV, to me reality shows should be watched with a BOWL full of salt. In saying this, I have never felt so possessed as to comment on “Plum” and her childish behaviour. Getting a makeover was sucking your soul and destroying your spirit? Really? Of all the ‘challenges’ that you faced growing up to bring you this point in your life, a lighthearted makeover show is what breaks a 20 year friendship and causes despair and really, lets face it, a tantrum, then what will you do when life really throws a curveball at you? Throw yourself down on the floor and scream, I dont wanna?!

    Plum, your true ugly colours shone through for the whole world to see. If it was me, I would be ashamed.

    ya know, i just saw this episode with Plum, and it really irritated me! Ya, everyone has the right to be unique in thier own way and have thier own creative fashion. But, this girl was just downright rude and unappreciative in what the makers of the show wanted to do for her. And, to not have anything to say to a so called friend of 18 years, not even a thank you for taking time out of your life to help me. Plum clearly has some unresolved psychological issues that need to be addressed. She is going to end up an old lonely lady! It was good to offer to donate the clothes to Good Will, that was the only smart thing that came out of her mouth the whole show!

    Sadly, Plum is the same age as me yet acts like the goth girls from my high school from 15 years ago.Plum- you are not different. you are not unique. you are lame If you go to any high school in the united states there will be a clique of 15-16 year old girls hanging out at the mall that dress like you and have your “everyone is out to get me attitude”. The only reason you think you are unique is because most people who are in their 30’s get past the “teen agnst” stage of life in their late teens early 20’s. So yes you are unique for a 31 year old but you are not unique for a 16 year old…because most 31 year olds don’t want to act the same way they did when they were 16.Let me guess…you used to cut yourself too. YAWN.

    Hey “Plum” AKA “Distasterus”,
    you have some major issues not to mention the the maturity of a 4-year old. God help any “troubled teens” that would ever take advice or learn from your example. Seriously.
