Ha, I totally spelled your name wrong in the middle of that...

Wow, Kristen! I just randomly decided to look your name up online to see how you were doing...and..well...Dang! :) Not that you need any more backup...but Ben & that other dude...I knew Kristen back when we went to SBMS. I sat with her in our science class. She looks pretty much the same, just a little bit more mature, now. Her beauty is definitely natural, and I absolutely believe that she stays away from any kind of substance abuse. She has been working really hard to reach her goal as long as I've known her, and I highly doubt that she would do anything to put her career in jeopardy. :) Kristin...I've always loved the extreme contrast between your 'model Kristin' & your 'every-day Kristin' photos. It makes you different from most other models out there. I love going from one of your modeling photos, to one of your hunting photos. :) You're incredibly unique, and I'm SOOOO happy that you've gotten to where you are today.

She's very pretty!

Gosh...such immaturity so sad.I happen to personally know Kristen and she is a very lovely young lady who set her mind at an early age to model and has worked very hard and made many sacrifices while kids her age are out getting drunk and dont have a life. And no botox in her lips, she is a natural beauty inside and out. Do not make lame comments about people unless you can back it up with truth. Jealousy is a sad thing..be happy for someone who works hard and achieves their goals in life. She has one and she is making it come true! Good luck Kristen!!

Wow some people have the nerve to judge a person because something positive happens to them? Funny how everyone is quick to post on the negative stories and make fun or judge that situation. Just be glad she made the news on a positive note, not for being your everyday hood rat in the news. Congrats on the win. Don't mind what people say. As long as you follow your dreams and make them come true. That is what matters the most!
