I haven't read the hate post but I can tell you that the only words that come to mind when I think of you are "beautiful" "vivacious" and "wonderful awesome bellydance goodness!"
Sounds like the person coordinating that dance thing does not have the good sense to pick talent and experience over fluff. She'll learn one of these days. Either way don't sweat it, though I confess I don't get why she would be that way, especially since you have been helping her out with her music.
I have not read the hate post, but I have a general contempt for people who call others out just because of how they look. Only in America is there this obsession with uber-thin girls who resemble pre-pubescent boys. I used to hold out hope that one day Americans would get a clue, but I doubt seriously it will ever happen.
I hope your day improves - don't let stupid vain people get you down with their silly comments!
