From Confessions of a Bad Ugly Singer.Wordpress.com:

The worst is over. I think. Of course, I thought that before...

Before the lawsuit, I was juggling 5 bands, and booking about one new studio client a week..(C)lients that are checking my online reputation before hiring me...After the lawsuit, I booked one new studio client the entire year. I’m in one band that plays on occasion...So I might as well get back in the studio and cut an album. I certainly have a lot to say these days...

I spent most of my 30’s in fear of my real age being revealed. Despite getting fired for my age when I was 38…despite the NY Post age shaming me not once but twice…Now I am SO comfortable with my age that I TATTOOED THAT SHIT ON MY WRIST, folks...

Talented, Beautiful, Up-and-Coming Singer Brutally Smear Campaigned and Sued by Cowardly Narcissist. ...(That's) what the headlines SHOULD have said. Instead, national publications such as the New York Post printed disgusting headlines that read: Singer Sued for Being Too Ugly!

(New York Post reporter) Lia Eustachewich admitted she mistakenly thought my age was an issue in my court case, even though I told her it wasn’t. I respect that she took responsibility for this. I’m saddened the NY Post is brushing me off on this issue though...Lia...you are going to be 40 someday. My hope is that if we can create a meaningful dialogue about this now, so you will be spared the bigotry that I’m subjected to on an almost a daily basis...
