The girl with the serious looking/sounding defense mechanism (the one that kept the world from finding out that she was actually a soft, spiritual person at heart).
Even Tonya Harding's character looked/sounded a little too serious to be true at the more comedic points in the movie portraying her.

Get the Tonya Hardingmug. A baton, typically a retractable/collapsible type that is carried by the police and can be easily carried by an average civilian and used for self-defense or destroying kneecaps.
The term is derived from the 1994 attack of Olympic figure skater Nancy Kerrigan by Shane Stant, who was later revealed to be hired by Jeff Gillooly and Shawn Eckardt. Eckardt was the bodyguard to and Gillooly was the ex-husband of rival Olympic figure skater Tonya Harding. The attacker used a 21-inch (53 cm) ASP telescopic baton and was intending to break the knee of Kerrigan, thus allowing Harding to advance further. Many news outlets and people have since associated Tonya Harding directly with the attack and the alliterative term "Tonya Tapper" was created.

Get the Tonya Faymug. Tonya Harding didn't seem like a physically fragile person on the outside, and she took advantage of the weaknesses, insecurities, and fears of others to keep a tough image going, but her heart was made of glass and couldn't take rejection (especially not by the opposite sex, as the person she hated most wasn't of her own sex) because it was soft. A person can change their exterior to where they look tougher than they were as a kid, but you can't change what is in a person's heart.
Tonya Harding seems too tough to be true because when you look at the whole person and get past the don't underestimate her physically bullshit (which most people don't underestimate her) , she really is. She lives like a coward, and always has.
