Kind of noticing a theme
The theme is that Sarah, whose face is brutally rough, feels very insecure about women who are objectively more beautiful than her, but she can't say that without embarrassing herself so she finds other things to criticize.
Natalia is no angel... and far, far from sweet. She can be a kinda nasty, but then again, can't we all be if caught on the wrong day.
Oh no, you just ruined my impression of her. 😁 In videos and interviews, she always seemed like a really nice and sweet person. Can she really be like that? But you are right, anybody can have a bad day.
She allegedly has a reputation among the other women as a huge brown-noser.
Usually that means those ladies are jealous of her success and are finding an excuse
The IFBB is looking into this now and are considering punishing Sarah Villegas. GOOD crying is free but baseless attacks will have consequences
Back to the allegation that she paid the people running the spray tans to close early. Did they actually take her payment and follow through? Because if they did they are equally as crappy as Sarah is! Or did they say no?
I really don't follow comps or the substances they take these days but it does feel a bit like a pot and kettle situation. Can someone in simple terms summarise the drug testing or not situation for the Ms O? is it that if you play the system with your timing etc and don't get caught you can compete but this Oil is somehow beyond the pale but the judges officials didn't think it was a disqualifiable offence or found no actual evidence for it at the time?

No PED testing, but synthol is banned (to my knowledge). If synthol helped build actual muscle, competitors would use it. But that's not what it does. Competitors look down on those who use it, but judges are kinda limited to making evaluations on what they see.

So it's a cosmetic addition (like getting calf implants but non surgical?) - down to the Judges/officials to police that I suppose. A few more visible bumps and lumps but I wonder how significant in the final judging criteria would it be ?
Advanced male bodybuilder here. Looking to go pro in the Spring.
SEO's (Site Enhancement Oils) like Synthol are incredibly wide spread. Nearly every male competitor in the men's open uses them. They are not allowed, but judges turn the other way because they make competitors huge and freaky.. and the crowd wants to see huge freaks.
You see them used more sparingly in the smaller divisions, particularly for calves (hard to build) and delts (super important for judging).
In terms of women, they do seem less popular... but only because the judging for women is less about overall bulk and more about conditioning and proportions. But people can and do use them in small amounts. From what I know, they're most common in thighs and glutes to give the illusion of more size and width. They're incredibly common for wellness competitors who rely on massive legs and popping hamstrings.
Too much SEO use gets you Derek Lunsford's smooth shoulders and unsplit biceps. But that didn't stop him from winning, because size is king for mens.
Reasonable SEO use is (most likely) Natalia's shoulders, which was enough to enhance her physique but subtle enough that there's plausible deniability.
I would say in general that the world of bodybuilding is FAR more reliant on PED's and enhancement drugs than 99% of people could ever imagine. It's widespread and necessary at nearly every level of competition.
It's almost like the need some women have to photoshop their pics on Instagram. They already have contest winning much admired physiques but they feel they have to always go that one step more maybe due to some insecurity specially if not competing, or "marginal gains" that they think will give them that edge in close contests.
I wonder if they will implant additional muscle fibres if it's possible with laboratory meat without any rejection reaction. Ok, I dont wonder, Im absolutely sure! ^^
Sometimes drugs and other medical interventions that are originally developed for illness eg muscle wasting disease, or anabolic steroids used to treat male hypogonadism and certain types of breast cancer. end up being used for recreation, as we have certainly found.

Reminds me of Ozempic...
So...people who "cheats" knowing they are cheating and who are addicted to various drugs, go on their instagram's telling to "normal people" to believe in themself, to eat clean and live healthy? :D :D :D This is a perfect mirror of modern times: hypocrisy level 100.

Bro. Come on now.
Bodybuilding has NEVER been about being healthy. It's about being huge. It's about aesthetics and discipline.
And these drugs aren't addictive. Although you could say that people become somewhat emotionally dependent upon them.
Still, unhealthy as it may be, it's probably still better than being the average obese American. That's a low bar though.

I know about it, man and I agree with you (especially the part regarding obesity). I follow many instagram pages of bodybuilders and I have often noticed (mostly on the pages of amateur instead the pro) they act as special people whose more or less huge body is mainly due to a healthy lifestyle...they never speak about what they take outside of a healthy lifestyle. I appreciate you for your sincerity...but you're an exception. Any way...I'm going out of topic so I apoligize if you took what I wrote before in the wrong way. [and sorry for the english...I'm italian]

She's a woman. My opinion is ALL women are evil, deep down. Some will disagree, but "a woman scorned" wasnt just a phrase. I've known some really nice girls, wouldn't hurt a fly or be nasty, until I saw them behave completely irrationally and evil. All women are like this.
I was jokingly implying Sarah would pay as she's the one making the accusation.
