There does seem an underlying 'this will make me $$$' feeling to this, though it's very sad to read how her career was ended.
Having worked with models/media for years, uber-bitching really is part of the territory, though they don't usually go as far as to put it in print, that probably wasn't such a great idea.
That's a curious part of the web though, whatever you say (write) or do, potentially stays there forever. I hate the fact the whenever anyone does a Google image search on me, the first thing they find is a shot of me and my business partner dressed as mariachi's - damn.
