Eric say it aint so!  :o

Unless we legalize the marjiuana and have it available backstage for all to enjoy I don't see this going much further then Ms. Waugaman. Stranger things have happened and I've been known to be wrong a time or three.

I'm working on the video interview of her demonstrating it in the Expo and answering questions related to it.

It should be interesting to see her "Two minute Figure Routine" this weekend at the West Palm Beach show.



Well, hurry up with the editing Lift!   ;D

There are leaders and then there are followers. 

History, however, will remember those who were not afraid to be trailblazers.

As I am a rasta who lives in the Caribbean, I am obviously the expert on whether someone is blazin or not.

Post up the vid, and I will give my expert opinion >:(

The video cuts off right after Tara Scotti... Val is not in the video, neither is DJ Wallis.

The Vid I am working on is an interview explaining her posing and what she will be doing this weekend, along with what she was saying when she was talking to herself.

Dina - I will have a camera and video recorder, Ron wants some special pics.  ;)

I must say, I'm very disappointed by people in this thread.  It's one thing to say you don't like a routine, or a suit, or a look, or a physique, etc...... but saying that Valerie is on drugs, or is high, even if just in jest, is in very poor form.  Just because you don't understand something someone else does, or you are resistant to change, that doesn't make the other person wrong, "high", weird, or deserving of these sorts of mean spirited comments.

I can assure you, Ms. Waugaman is not "high" on anything, nor is she feeding her ego by performing a new type of "quarter turn".   She is a super, super nice person, and is the classiest person I've met in the industry.  She is ALWAYS friendly to both fellow competitors and fans alike. I've never seen Valerie in a bad mood.  She's wonderful.  She's the LEAST egotistical person I know, and is probably the nicest to other competitors backstage.  Just because she has an idea to help grow figure into something more interesting, it should not be construed as showboating, grandstanding, etc..., she's just being creative and trying to present her physique in what she feels is a positive fashion. From what I understand, behind the scenes, many of the girls love this idea - allowing them to present themselves in a unique way - but are "afraid" to speak up about it, fearing lower placings. I, for one, am looking very forward to her 2 minute performance this weekend in West Palm Beach, and hope she pioneers in a new era in Figure.

To attack her with such venom (Malibu and Hinds) is very low on your parts.  Especially how you act nice to her on your video, then trash her, call her "high", etc, here on this board.  One thing is for certain - your negativity will not affect her.  Her positive spirit is stronger than anything you bring to the table.

Dear Waugamaniac,

I'm all for making things interesting and change, but you don't do what Val did at the biggest show of the year and think that is okay. You also don't tell the IFBB that YOU are going to change the way figure is done. That's a great way to get change.  ::) I'd hardly call what I am saying trashing her. Everything I am saying I will say to Val in person and the questions Ron and I asked are what people were asking and commenting on. I can't count the number of people asking or commenting on thinking she was high or on something. That is why Ron asked the question. I wouldn't considering me putting on the CAPTAIN OBVIOUS suit and calling it how the vast marjority of people see it being negative. People didn't understand and why we asked the questions we did, again hardly trashing her.

"She's the LEAST egotistical person I know, and is probably the nicest to other competitors backstage."
- You clearly don't speak to many of the competitors as this couldn't be further from the truth. I've been told on more then a few occasions first hand accounts of how she was less then nice to fellow competitors. You have NO CLUE how many fellow competitors felt that her perfomance on stage was disrespectful of their time and talking on stage OUTLOUD would tend to lend itself to those who aren't in a "normal" state of mind.

She is obviously a friend of yours and you are defending her, and I applaud that. I would do, and have done, the same.

That being said, if you want to walk out onstage and talk to yourself - people are going to talk about you. End of story. It is nutty to talk to yourself onstage.

She has a great physique no doubt. I was beyond impressed by her from the moment she came on the scene.

Lift was out of line, got called on it, then smartened up in subsequent postings about The Regal One. 

MalibuBarbie is just a trashy little bitch.  A couple of us think it might be a guy and that it might be a guy who trains female competitors, but one thing is certain - jealousy consumes this individual.  That's what makes his/her perspective so laughable.  And the end of the day, MalibuBarbie is just another internet troll desperate for attention.

You have NO CLUE how many fellow competitors felt that her perfomance on stage was disrespectful of their time and talking on stage OUTLOUD would tend to lend itself to those who aren't in a "normal" state of mind.

I've spoken to maybe 15-17 of the 22 or so competitors since the Olympia prejudging.  I think that's a pretty good sample set to get an accurate view of things, Isaac.  And so far, the only people acting jealous, insecure, and calling it disrespectful are you and Malibu"Barbie".   If "positive affirmation" is Valerie's thing on stage, so what?  Who does that harm?  There are probably a lot of things you do that many people would consider not "normal" too.

Stating almost factually like you have, that "she was less than nice to fellow competitors", is a flat out lie.  I've never heard a competitor state this, only you.   Competitors have always told me she's very sweet and personable, and this dates back to 2005 Europa.  (I was not present at the 05 USA's or the 04 Bodyrock shows where she apparently also competed).
