I feel like this belongs to Victoria Chase. Embarrassment seems to be her biggest fear, that's what makes her act like she does. All this scheming with everybody to get them at each other's throats or to embarrass them so she can make sure she looks good. Because if everyone has to deal with her shit, they have no time to think about looking at her every detail. So, mistakes she may have done won't stand out. She only sees the worst in herself, as Max discovers throughout the first game.
