I have a friend who wants to enter an amateur competition with myself and another friend but...well...this is the touchy part. Me and my friend Jen look the part, have a dance background, etc... and the other friend definitely doesn't...to the point she'd likely be turned away immediately. We're not quite sure how to discourage her to save her the embarassment since she's so gung ho about doing the amateur night. Oh, and to save myself from just looking like a bitch and not a caring friend (which I'm trying to be), this girl is probably 5'3 and a good 170 pounds. I'm no lightweight either (5'7 and 145) but Im just trying to stress that this isn't a sour grapes sort of issue.
I don't know if this has happened to anyone else, I'm just worried that it'll destroy her self esteem if I can't gently discourage her from doing this.
Please help, any input or suggestions are very welcome!
