Using the term 'bullying' to describe a bunch of Internet strangers calling someone ugly, belittles the people who are suffering from actual bullying. Presumably, none of these people knew her personally; presumably there were no threats of death or bodily harm; it probably would have been summarily forgotten if she hadn't made a big deal out of it. An NFL cheerleader should be confident enough in her looks to be able to brush off a bunch of Internet dickwads who root for the other team calling her ugly.
If someone mobilized a posse every time a famous face was called beastly, they'd have thrown me in some sort of dungeon long ago based simply on the amount of times I've called Sarah Jessica Parker a horse-face alone.
