QUIQUI!!!
KD________
Though, I must admit with the judges on yours being the weakest. On a challenge like this, even if you do feel that opinion on yourself (as do I), that's definitely not the right lyric to choose. With that choice, it seemed you were basically begging to be eliminated. 
My rankings:
1. quiqui4eva
2. mitchie22
3. SiXo
4. Deuces
5. Sin With A Grin
6. eegigyy
7. $CBCOOL$
8. Nait Phoenix
9. IAmCannibal
10. KoreanDream

I feel like now everyone is going to think I'm this super depressed girl with the lowest self-confidence ever and that's not true at all. I simply submitted that because I know how it feels to think you're ugly but that you should know you never are. I guess it's just a lyrics that doesn't make sense unless you know the song. 
I guess I'll try again next season. Regardless, this is still quite a bummer.

It really did come off as you seeming depressed, and I think it was a dangerous decision to make without many of us knowing the rest of the song. You were only given the chance to spotlight certain lyrics, and the ones you chose showed nothing about feeling ugly but knowing you aren't. All the words you colored/emphasized made it seem like you were convinced you were ugly, etc., when I have seen your picture (though the others haven't), and you are VERY BEAUTIFUL. Everything the contestants do in this competition is representative of themselves, so the lyrics you submitted reflected on you strongly. I think you could have gone quite far had you taken a different approach to this challenge. Even your signature right now reflects the word "ugly." It's very sad.
Your avatar stood out to me in Challenge 2 because it was upbeat and happy, as you always seemed to be (though I kept telling you to be more confident). But with this entry it seems as if you threw your confidence out the window and kind of pushed everyone away with an entry that stood out for all the wrong reasons. It was sad to see you change your originally submitted lyrics to such depressing ones, but it was up to you to play the round whatever way you chose. Unfortunately, you made the wrong decision. There is ALWAYS next cycle though!

1. I wish I had this avie instead of the LMFAO one for the avatar challenge.
2. I hope there's a comeback round because now I feel incredibly stupid on leaving in multiple ways.
3. If #2 doesn't happen, then I'd like to be a guest or permanent judge.

I'm upset by this. I really feel like my lyrics were misinterpreted.

Thank you. It makes sense how that could be misinterpreted and it definitely is a bummer that this one challenge cost me a competition I thought I had quite the shot at. I'll think about trying again, though.
And the word is based off of a song I love and the song is about thinking you are ugly. However, it's more of a commentary on what is pretty and what isn't, which the video highlights. Ugh. I'm frustrated.

Well, to be honest.. how were we supposed to interpret them?

I think I'm ugly, and nobody wants to love me
Just like her, I want to be pretty
I want to be pretty
Don't lie to my face, telling me I'm pretty
I think I'm ugly, and nobody wants to love me
Just like her I want to be pretty
I want to be pretty
Don't lie to my face, because I know I'm ugly

Especially with you bolding know, and putting colors on the three times it said the word ugly.
If the song sounds different from the message, you should've put a lyric from those parts. This part basically says 'I'm ugly, don't lie and say I'm not.' and it's pretty obvious.

I'm sorry KD. Things aren't always interpreted the way we intend them to be, especially when we aren't given a chance to explain our choices. In this challenge, however, it was crucial that the lyrics spoke for themselves. It all had to be very well calculated. Don't give up, though, and please don't be upset. You made it far in the competition and I enjoyed seeing you compete and grow!

I know. I think at the time I submitted it I was so in love with the song (I still am, just not as obsessed), that I thought the lyrics could speak volumes for what the song means, but they don't. Oh, well.

Thanks. I can only hope so.
On the bright side, I set a record for most votes to be in the Bottom 3. I only got 10th place and I'm already breaking records.

I think it's time I say goodbye to this competition after all of my above posts. I've now been eliminated and while it's disappointing, I don't need to be too upset and I know that. I'll be back next cycle and I will be ready to snatch wigs and slay lives. Watch out.  But in all honesty, I hope no one worries about me or thinks I hate myself because of the lyrics I submitted. I thought that by choosing those lyrics I could take an "unexpected" route and provide lyrics that basically said "I know how it feels to be ugly but you shouldn't". However, they were misinterpreted (I don't know how you could interpret the lyrics well without knowing the song very well  ), and I paid the price. Au revoir, Top Member. I will see you in Cycle 7.
*Does Jade-like bow and walks out in pure fierceness*
Oh, and Deuces must win this competition.

Sure 
I think it'll be Sin With A Grin, Deuces, or SiXo as the final three, to be honest.
