I have no idea who she is. However, I have learned over the years that judges are - in general - far better at doling out appropriate sentences than public opinion, especially when it is whipped up by the press. Its probably because they have all the relevant facts, can assess the individual's personality directly at first hand, and are trained to be fair.
Whether that is true in this case, I cannot say however.
Blame the media, they promote this, the obligatory self loving blond or the thick as pigshit muscled boyfriend, the likes of TOWIE, Big Brother, BGT and all the other dross we are assailed with as entertainment, no wonder the kids of today are the way they are, they all want to be pop stars, footballers or models,well who can blame them? when they these see painted white toothed morons promoted to the status of celebrity for being outrageous, easy innit.
