We would never want her to be a role model to our future contestants.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;\"In a business where we are surrounded by beauty every day we are saddened to see something so ugly come from someone we put on a very high pedestal.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A rep for the organization tells us they are especially upset because they encouraged their pageant girls to watch GinaMarie on the show and vote for her ... thinking she would be a role model."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
