User blog comment:TylerSurvivorFan/What If Ella Received All the Hate?/@comment-27588345-20141018031038

Let me tell you this one thing, even if Ella recieved all the hate in the fanbase, Sugar would still not have a whole lot of fans, let me explain why. For one thing, Sugar, after Ella's elimination, is a basic unfunny joke after unfunny joke, like Owen except without what made Owen so likable in the first place. Also even if Ella did recieve the same amount of hate that Sugar does, there would still be some random silent lurker, who likes her. There are always random, silent lurkers who like hated characters, but never express their opinion about them, because they're either too shy or afraid of getting shot down by other people. Anyway back to Ella and Sugar, if Ella had recieved the same amount of hate Sugar does, which is kind of impossible in Ella's current state, for her to have reached that status she would have had to: A. Be a completely different character in canon; i.e more likely to sing at random times, treat her teammates like dirt, act like a spoiled brat. or B. Treated Sugar like dirt in general, if that had happened, then people would have felt less sorry for her, and liked Sugar more. To put this gently Ella would need a complete overhaul to recieve the same amount of hate Sugar does.
