6. A contestant with asperger’s syndrome and ADHD was mocked and belittled by the other contestants.
Cycle 9 welcomed Heather, a contestant with aspergers syndrome and ADHD. Sure, she was a little awkward and inward, but always friendly and a talented model. One time after she shouted at a girl for jumping in the shower before her, they all burst into laughter to her face, joking that “she looked like she wanted to do voodoo on me.” Another contestant bitched behind her back that she was “kinda weird” and she didn’t “want to talk to her in case she clings to me.” They said she was on “a three second delay” and were utterly closed minded about the fact that she was slightly different to the rest of them. Where did they find these awful girls, seriously?
