OKay, maybe because sometimes harshing on Minmei feels like a hollow pleasure, like picking on somebody with a progressive brain disease, or criticizing the homecoming queen for getting attacked.
I tend to consider her not as 'somebody who got what was coming to her', but more of a social victim. Would she have been famous without the Zentraedi invasion? Maybe, maybe not. She might have been happier without the pressure of celebrity and the attention people desperate for 'normalcy' heaped on her. Or at least that's one take on it. The thing is, she's self-centered, but not a blatant bimbo or screaming attention-hog that some celebrities become/are. She's the waitress-girl next door who rose too fast under bad circumstances, and then burned out hard.
Would she appreciate Ice Guard? Given her circumstances, after watching a group of paparazzi stalking her get eaten because they ignored the warnings and tried to get an optimal camera stakeout position(OUTSIDE the security perimeter), she might...well, warm to the dubious security the IG offers her.
It might become her version of the Fortress of Solitude.

"Wait...who are you people again?"
Tolliver:
"Possibly suffering from snow madness."
"DAYUM."
