I don’t about “haters” but he hasn’t received an apology because his conspiracy theory was wrong. Her being a liar was entirely a different issue.

The extremely convenient and coincidental circumstances surrounding this, highlights questions that must be answered. Is it possible Marketing/PR heavyweights have learned from the fallout of people like Corey Worthington, and sought to actually create pre-packaged 'idols' from scratch, for consumption by young people? Even though 'Clare' has now employed UNO PR (Projects), this does not prove her PRIOR involvement with the company. The picture from the Projects website, however, warrants further investigation. A close examination of the facial characteristics shows a VERY close match with the character known as 'Clare'. The nasal bridge, chin, jawline, eyes and prominent cheekbones are extremely similar. Please view this link to a comparison of the two pics, keeping in mind since the Projects pic she may have lost some weight, dyed her hair and gained an obviously fake tan: http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/9145/newclarecopy.jpg These are excellent observations Mr Polites.
