    OMG! Goodness gracious, I just can't with this beautiful, VAIN, hysterical, lovely, her own biggest cheerleader(just like how everyone is supposed to feel about themselves) "table for ONLY ONE" on Alyssa's planet, sweet, talented, QUEEN!!! When Alyssa explained how nicely her best Judy had told her how she always is, I cried laughing? It would be cool to have her win Global AllStars!

    I love how much she still loves her camera dress because SAME. I get why people don't like it but I thought it was so Alyssa and so fun.
