Trista Rupp, or Twisted Trista as
Star 104 nicknamed her, has ended
her residency in Tinsel Town. Rupp
was the third contestant to get out of
the car, leaving Beetle Bob, the win

Although Rupp had to withdraw
from classes, she says she is glad she
did the contest. She explained, “It
opened doors that otherwise would not

on shellacking it, covering it with
glitter, putting a hook in it and giv
ing it to him as a Christmas ornament.
As for the future, Rupp plans on
making her trip a family vacation
with her two children and her parents.
