Heavy D was baiting her and Waissel bit.
She's been acting for weeks like a lot of other HMs and her mask fell.

I think Katie's irked by the celebrity caliber of some HMs in this series. Not just Heavy D. Shows, she's a competitive snob.
Ex Factor was selected and set up for her (it went wrong b'cos of her badly behaved G Ma) I think Katie may believe her professional connections make her superior despite her lack of talent.

Yes, but of course, she should have just remained silent and accepted all the unwarranted insults that were being flung her way with good grace. The nerve of the woman to retaliate, chuck the heinous cow out.

Not at all. Waissel is entitled to defend herself from D's baiting but her response was over-charged, out of character, or at least a verging difference from the character she's been playing and warrants discussion. It was also condescending to the point of narcissism and contrived, because she used it as an opportunity to introduce discussion on her "famous G Ma"

Katie isn't heinous, but she behaved like a privileged snob. Dumb as Heavy D might appear, his simple tactics caused Katie's mask to slip.

If she had just called him out and asked why he was targeting her and focusing deliberate harassment towards her, her facade would have remained intact.

He was questioning her fame and her right to be there. Turns out, they paid her more than him! Why the hell should she tiptoe around the big, stupid oaf?

I don't know what you want from people who are being attacked. He acted like a thug and got what he deserved.
