Two women got in a catfight to display how confrontational they were or whatever. I think the most important thing for me is that I've realized I have to let this whole thing roll off my back, because I took this whole thing really personally when I was in the house, and when I first got out. I read so much stuff about myself, and I was masochistically reading all the message boards. I was really questioning myself and it was so painful. Then I reached a point when I just thought, OK, that was my media persona.
People can do whatever they want with it.
I think I've turned a corner. I've regained my sense of humor a little bit. Carina Chocano is the associate editor of Salon People. Cover up with a Salon T-shirt this summer.
