AIBU to not really understand the appeal of Myleene Klass

Just that really. She got a workout DVD to flog so she poses nude to raise her profile and hopefully get more sales and therefore she's all over the telly. I just don't understand her appeal.

Could say that about the vast majority of people who have made their name via reality TV.

SumThucker · 05/02/2018 13:44

She's clever, talented and pretty. Hardly a stretch as to why she has some appeal, there are worse ones I can think of.

falsepriest · 05/02/2018 13:45

Seems smart, friendly, is attractive and bubbly on TV, and has some musical talent. Good for her.

pumpersnatch · 05/02/2018 13:46

Nope me neither.
She wasn't popular with the "public" till that infamous interview on The Frank Skinner show about 10 years ago when she broke down in tears about how hard life had been after the disbanding of that Popstars group.
The media felt sorry for her and she suddenly became a BBC favourite .

Weird.

My brother met her and said she was lovely - really down to earth and nice.

FannyWisdom · 05/02/2018 13:48

She can tickle the ivories.

You dont have to like her, but why do you care if others do? You dont need to 'understand the appeal' of anyone you don't like, focus on people you do like and let others do the same.

This....

I can't stand her. She had babies, and suddenly thought she knew more than anyone else about them. Silly bint.

Sandsnake · 05/02/2018 13:55

I worked with her once and she was exceptionally nice. Very down to earth. Maybe that’s part of the reason she gets a lot of work?

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 05/02/2018 13:57

I'm presuming you don't know her OP? She may well be a lovely person?

How? What a ridiculous comment.

Bluntness100 · 05/02/2018 13:59

Oh look another thread inviting people to rip apart another woman

Lovely jubby. It was Holly's turn last week. Meghans the week before, and now it's Myleenes.

Which poor woman is next weeks I wonder.

Myheartbelongsto · 05/02/2018 14:00

Jealous much op.

BastardGoDarkly · 05/02/2018 14:18

I call her My Mykleen Ass cos my husband loves her Grin

Come on, she's gorgeous, talented and comes over as really nice, why the hate?

TieGrr · 05/02/2018 14:21

I'd be more inclined to buy a workout DVD from her than most other celebrities. She's lost a lot of weight since the early Popstars days and has kept it off.

MayFayner · 05/02/2018 14:23

I think she's lovely. She has a wholesome vibe about her that I lack and covet.

PinkHeart5914 · 05/02/2018 14:28

And I don’t understand people like yourself that feel the need to be mean towards others when they’ve done nothing to you personally, it’s all very bitchy girls in the playground!

I’m assuming she hasn’t drowned you puppy, fucked your dh or done a poo in your porridge, so what is actually your problem? 🤷🏻‍♀️

HateSummer · 05/02/2018 14:28

Gosh I don’t think I had one pregnancy without her plastered all over yahoo and the internet telling us about babies and pregnancy. She was just everywhere all the time. I don’t notice her much now, although did glance at her nakey pictures prancing around Confused. Her MC clothes are really horrible too..I want babies to be in bright happy colours not b&w!

ArsewipesAreWet · 05/02/2018 14:36

Don't know much about her except she's really talented musically (pianist).

Bluntness100 · 05/02/2018 15:11

I suspect it's because she's slim, attractive and talented. Some sad women friggen hate that in another woman. The whole posing nude seemed to be one of the few points in the op.

So she saw her nakey, got all envious, started a thread hoping everyone would jump in and slag her off.

The mind boggles.

Ofthread · 05/02/2018 15:14

I like her. She's known for the bikini waterfall scene in I'm a Celeb, so it makes financial sense to release a workout dvd. I wish they would release videos about what they actually do though. Also - who buys DVDs?

It’s just a thread... no need for people to get uptight and start having a go at OP for being jealous etc.

Argeles - couldn’t agree more and I’m not jealous of her in terms of looks, self absorbed attitude etc.

SumThucker · 05/02/2018 15:39
