From the sounds of it not at all - you've risen above the two of them magnificently and you've every right to be angry and upset. :hug:

What these girls are doing is bullying pure and simple - it's vicious, completely unacceptable and utterly unprofessional.

Well done you for keeping a cool head on your shoulders throughout all this and not stooping to their level (although if the performer in question is on the MoB it might be worth having a confidential word with the moderators to get them up to speed in case their behaviour spills over on to here).

Not to mention indicating the possession of an IQ more commonly found amongst the concussed ameoba population - how on earth does this genius think that sort of thing makes her look to potential bookers when it's on her professional profile for all to see? :daft:

I really think you've dealt with this perfectly, if she's stupid enough to blather all over myspace then shes just ruined her burlesque career, we're not high school musical here!

However, as Lilly stated; if said performer does frequent the forums and you get trouble do give us a nod, we do not support bullying of any type and i think there is a way to block PMs from certain members if you are worried.

Aww hun I'm sorry to hear about that, I know how horrible and stressfull stuff like this is I've had similar stuff happen to me and heard so many horror stories from other people too, why can't everyone just get along??!!!

I once had a friend and fellow performer make up a load of stuff and slag me off to a burlesque promoter after we'd had a silly argument over nothing, needless to say I'll never be able to perform there again!!! It was extremely tempting for me to confront her about it and ask what the hell she thought she was doing, but in the end I didn't get involved as I knew it would just create more animosity, and I'm glad a kept my mouth shut. I'm actually in the process of rebuilding my friendship with her because I can't stand not being on speaking terms with people .

The most important thing to remember is that people who do stuff like this tend to be insecure and have plenty of issues themselves. When you think of it like that you realise that these aren't bad people, they're just people who don't really know how to deal with stuff.

Anyways Chin up chicken!! We're all rooting for ya xx

Clearly expressing my opinions of upset is something I shouldn't do.

I'm really upset and gutted, someone who I don't know is now laying into me.

Who needs em eh? Ill cheer you when we go pub and maybe get a little drunk.Now, reveal the performers name to the publics, lol, i already know, hehe. x

firstly cupcake sprinkles!!! WIT WOOO!!!

Secondly, I haven't had any hassle on here thank god. I think they are registered on here though. Just haven't put two and two together.

Hearing other peoples similar stories, it's such a shame that people treat each other like this. What's the point really.

My housemate keeps snapping at me recently...she won't directly tell me if i've offended her in any way even though I did ask her if i'd done something wrong and she's turning my other housemate against me. It's not fair is it?? But then again, in situations like these you find out who your real friends are. Unfortunately my best friend lives in America...oh well

Hi Tara, I really sypathise with you. I ended up in a similar situation some time ago where a certain performer made up a lie about me and then started spreading it. I was really worried that people would believe her lie and stop booking me and i got so worried that i considered naming and shaming her on MoB and myspace.
In the end I'm glad i didn't as it would have made matters ten times worse... she would probably have gone to even further lengths to upset me and it just would have become tit for tat. In the long run people haven't stopped booking me so it just goes to show that people don't always believe malicious gossip and name calling and as other people have said it can be a risky game for the person trying to stir it as they can give themselves a bad reputation in the process.
Try not to let it get you down... most people are sensible enough to realise there are two sides to every story

Thanks Emerald,

I've decided being the bigger person and not saying anything about it. My mate and my sister are really peed off about it all, so hopefully, this "ex-friend" of mine will see some sense.
