Maybe with her having less and less – if any – control of the narrative now, maybe she was told that she had to be there and was told what she was required to do, and she refused to cooperate or show up figuring she would get the upper hand by throwing off the plans. However they then one upped her by getting a doppelganger who acted like they’ve been expecting her to but she always fails at. So now IF there’s another outing either she’s going to have to be all doting, supportive and loving, like the doppelganger was or if she doesn’t she’s going to look like the bad guy (to the general public) in the end of this, and reveal to us that she truly wasn’t at the festival.
Just my crazy guess, but I wonder if she’s being more and more uncooperative and they are finding ways to deal with it rather than giving into it.

I could totally get behind this theory, except for two things:1. When has Zero EVER turned down a chance to be in the spotlight? Especially at a Letters Live event?
2. If they had a stand in and did it to spite her and/or without her approval…wouldn’t she have lashed out somehow by now? That’s what is making me think she’s “out of the way” somehow. But if you are right? Good for Marvel/Disney. They should take control and not allow her to mess with the narrative, while they set up the out.
Fame was first and foremost on her her mind when she signed up for HW’s RCGF gig while money was a close second. She’s failed miserably at obtaining the former, she’s only managed to drag BC’s reputation down with her shady dealings and narc antics. FFS look at her friends! They are a study in dishonesty, nepotism and racism. Don’t get me started on her backers…SH did manage to shake a good amount out of her mark but again not what she hoped for either. If a standin was used there is no doubt in my mind that she was contained somehow. But this is at best a short-term solution because we know that her Team is still hard at work pushing her agenda (and theirs). The bottom line is that the whole tainted ShamWow narrative needs to end, for BC’s sake.
