Demonstrating excellence throughout the tournament, she broke as a judge and advanced all the way to the Open Grand Finals, ultimately ending her run as the 𝟑𝐫𝐝 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐁𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐉𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞. 💗✨

Perhaps the true lesson of the tournament is that even long-standing fears can be overcome in the pursuit of excellence — including, apparently, Hello Kitty. 🤔
