Nora's Look Sparks a Debate

While one of the initial posters that sparked people's interest in Nora's player photo mentioned her as being "goth," there seemed to be significant pushback from some commenting online that she fell more in line with the juggalo look that many Insane Clown Posse fans embrace.

"Since when is clown paint considered goth," pondered one person. "She’s more juggalo," added another. "That’s a LOT of color for a goth," remarked yet another commenter.

The "goth" look for women often involves wearing clothes or putting on makeup that represents death, decay or gloominess. Meanwhile, "juggalos" are more prone to displaying facial paint as a form of expression.

The thread even included a comment supposedly from one of Hayd's family members, who noted, "She's my cousin -- she's dope af, talented, kind, and we are all proud of her! She's crushin it and not letting anything stop her from simply being herself and we love it."
