‘Mars’ can’t make up her mind

Disoriented Artist’s (DA) handlers kept reminding the press to refrain from mentioning not just DA’s “frenemy” Yakky Kibitzer (YK) during the interview, but also the self-inflicted controversy that drove netizens to bash DA.But reporters left the interview scratching their heads after DA began complaining about how shocked she was by the public “lynching” she got for simply sharing an opinion.

DA was right, of course—everyone’s entitled to his or her own opinion. It was just a little weird that DA suddenly began talking about an issue she vehemently said she didn’t want to talk about … and with no prodding needed from reporters.
