Standing up for herself

Not letting the haters change her

“The hateful messages have not made me reevaluate myself (as some of you had hoped) because I am a strong woman, and I know who I am in real life,” she expressed.
Jenna has no problem with viewers disagreeing with how she is as a chief stew. What she has a problem with, is the verbal abuse and harassment that continue to flood her social media.

Does Jenna’s message about being bullied change your opinion of her?
Below Deck Sailing Yacht airs Mondays at 9/8c on Bravo.
No, Jenna MacCrazy standing up for herself does not change my opinion about her one bit. She is still nasty, lazy, mean, and disgusting. She can dish out meanness & nastiness to subordinates, but she can’t take it when people do the same to her???? Jenna, you dish it, you eat it. She’s a condescending prick and the funny thing is that she has absolutely nothing going in her favor. She is not talented or anywhere near good at her job plus she’s so fricken UGLY, it’s beyond comprehension! She looks like an Orangutang with her big nose, lopsided face & lips, awkward limbs, and drooping tits. I mean, seriously, she looks like an ORANGUTANG!!! And her personality is so ruthless and mean, that there’s no denying she’s UGLY INSIDE AND OUT. She has nothing going for her, that’s why she’s so easy to f%&k.
