And we are off...again!

I think I know the medication Alex would be on, I was on it myself a few years back, and it also made me burn so quickly and stay looking that way for a while.

If it was sunburn he was suffering, he'd be blistered and peeling by now. The meds change his skin pigmentation, so he's not actually burnt.

Why would Alex go in?

Being red, acting stupid, wearing silly clothes and doing silly tasks is worth it in the long term for him. Or he hopes it is.

unique1986 · 21/07/2018 14:02

And his EGO is huge.

unique1986 · 21/07/2018 14:05

And he is pink rather than badly burnt and peeling all over the place.
His skin looks decent enough, hardly any moles freckles

"Interestingly, some posters are now, all
of a sudden, expressing disappointment etc about other posters’ behaviour. I find that profoundly irritating, too."

Hopefully not directed at me as I've said it several times on the previous threads.

"It’s quite a big one if you consider skin cancer."

Well yes but I meant as a character flaw, not applying sunscreen effectively or often enough just seems quite trivial.

I think everyone could kid themselves they were gently poking fun at someone daft enough to get sunburnt, if they hadn't used such unkind language.

It didn't come across as 'I'm worried for his health' or even 'what a fool he is not to use adequate sunscreen'.

It came across as 'I don't like this person, what can I identify about his appearance to lambast him'.

Charlotte Crosby calling Alex vile is laughable, I doubt he would be deeply affected by her comments because I know I wouldn't care about a chav's remarks, they're irrelevant.

MissDollyMix · 21/07/2018 14:45

Who is Charlotte Crosby? I feel so old! 😂 Also, on Twitter Jack is often referred to as OluwaJack, can anyone explain that to me?

Laura Crane live with another girl.

I'm finding some of the holier than thou attitudes a bit irritating too. Using racist and misogynistic language is unacceptable, but I don't think analysing the looks and attitudes of people who've chosen to go on Love Island is wrong.

This is not a brand new show. They know what they're getting into. They court fame on Instagram based purely on their looks.

Maybe I'm being naïve and under-estimating the nastier side of this type of fame but I do think this thread has been pretty fair on the whole.

Zampa · 21/07/2018 15:10

@MissDollyMix CC is from Geordie Shore (MTV). Now, she's someone who has had a lot of work done. She's virtually unrecognisable from when she first appeared on TV.

I think if this man has indeed got photo sensitive psoriasis, then whomever has announced it on Twitter has done him no favours. Because now we have a doctor with a serious skin complaint, spending weeks in the sun, no hat or t shirt, and having to be told to get Higher factor sun screen. Not exactly smart.

But I'm not sure he does have it if I'm honest, the tweet just said "some people" and his skin looks fine, let's be honest we see enough of it, he just looks to be very, very far skinned and not able to take the sun, lots of people are like this, they just need to be careful with the sun tan lotion, which we know he wasn't.

For me the jury's still out. Either he's got it and he's been very lax on managing it, or he hasn't and he's just been a bit lax with the lotion.

MrsElijahMikaelson · 21/07/2018 16:42

This thread is getting tedious.

Pages now on looks, whether its weight, insinuating people aren't eating properly, cosmetic surgery, or now Alexs skin.

Seriously?

I'm sure your all oil painting yourselves, now can it get back to their behaviour?

RoseWhiteTips · 21/07/2018 16:48

Alex1’s skin IS relevant. After all, his people have made it clear he has psoriasis.
Why on earth should that not be discussed?

RoseWhiteTips · 21/07/2018 16:48

...you’re

RoseWhiteTips · 21/07/2018 16:49

And who are you to call the shots, hmm?

MrsElijahMikaelson · 21/07/2018 16:51

Wow he has psoriasis and going out in the sun, he's a very naughty boy, I hope his mother slaps his wrists for it when he leaves the villa.

So still on about looks then are we?

RoseWhiteTips · 21/07/2018 16:56

You are spoiling this thread. Go you.

MrsElijahMikaelson · 21/07/2018 16:56

Rose, who said I'm calling the shots?

I don't understand how their looks are relevant, It's unpleasant.

MrsElijahMikaelson · 21/07/2018 17:09

You are spoiling this thread. Go you.

By making a comment saying I was getting bored of the constant stream of posts on their looks?

I'm sure ive ruined your life in the processHmm

Bluntness100 · 21/07/2018 17:16

You don't need to join the thread if you don't like it, people are free to discuss what they wish. If you don't find it interesting it's best to move on, as opposed to telling them to stop and discuss what you wish.

deptfordgirl · 21/07/2018 17:28

His instagram is being run by his two best friends, isn't it? I think they were on the first Aftersun. One made a comment about knowing him his whole life so I'm sure it is true he has a skin condition. Not sure he wanted it announced to everyone but I can see his friends are just trying to defend him. They also said he hasn't had an easy life, perhaps making a reference to him being bullied about it.

GoldenGumballs · 21/07/2018 17:40

So Paul...
He’s very serious isn’t he? Unless he has a very dry humour. Really wish they’d show us more of their interactions so we could discuss their personalities. All we get is bums, set up convos & glowing skin GrinLooking forward to big brother.
