Shaq needs his own show when he gets out. I LOVE him! Such a breath of fresh air.

Yes, hopefully he and Tanya will get a good show after this

It’s not her fault. They don’t let the black women get their wigs done often.

I'm sure you just made that upHmm
That's like saying they don't let the white girls touch up or redo their hair extensions or get their lip injections or Botox or whatever
I'm sure all the girls have access to their beauty regimen needs

XelaM · 01/02/2023 23:28

Tanya's wig and eye lashes are terrible but I love that Shaq still thinks she's the most beautiful girl in the world 😍

wig*

XelaM · 01/02/2023 23:30

And Indiyah had some awesome-looking wigs in the summer show, so I doubt they are not allowing black women to change wigs 🤷‍♀️

XelaM · 01/02/2023 23:31

AND Indiyah always had gorgeous-looking lashes. So I'm sure it's all Tanya's choice

I really liked Indiyah's lashes 😍beautiful eyes in general. Tanya's lashes are too thick, but otherwise she's fine. It's a tall ask to look perfectly groomed all the time on HD TV lol

Chasedbythechaser · 01/02/2023 23:39

Well that was a good ending to that episode.

I was ready to say that Shaq and Tanya had found love so could go off home now and let other people in to find love but Shaq is fabulous.

Ron and Tom are awful and Kai is just thick as mince.

Lemonande · 01/02/2023 23:48

Jordan's personality (so far)makes him very attractive. Him and Casey seem so mature compared to the other guys. Jordan makes it sound so believable that he went all the way on Love Island just to find true love 😂

bumblenbean · 01/02/2023 23:51

Those suggesting Jordan is the new Ovie - sacrilege! I’m afraid no man can possibly live up to the perfection of Ovie. Not only did he look like a god he just didn’t give a fuck about anything which was so funny to watch!

I think the female bombshells have outshone the male ones so far. Hoping Lana makes a decent connection with someone leaving Ron high and dry, but I suspect she’ll soon be back to him sadly …

Lemonande · 01/02/2023 23:53

Good boy list (1st Feb):
Shaq (headboy)
Will (deputy head boy)
Spencer

Potential new joiners:
Jordan
Casey

Jumping into this thread to say THiS 🙌🏻

Shaq for prime minister! Too much ?

That was a great year for bombshells, we had:
Ovie
Chris the salmon
Maura! Best bombshell ever.

Nuclear bombs compared with this years damp squibs.

Picoloangel · 02/02/2023 06:26

@bumblenbean I agree Ovie was a one off. It is indeed sacrilege for anyone to be suggesting that Jordan is the new Ovie. Shudders. I can never understand how the producers squandered him on Casa Amor - he had original islander written all over him. Shaq’s respect towards the women in the Villa and assertiveness to the shitty men is so encouraging. I despair generally of the men in there.

IheartNiles · 02/02/2023 06:42

Love Shaq (geddit?)

Calling out the poor behaviour when the boys are alone. Genuine, not playing to an audience. Not afraid to own his feelings about Tanya. He’s a pure and mature soul. Lovely young man.

Not too much 😂He has my vote!

just sayin…

MrsElijahMikaelson1 · 02/02/2023 08:08

Have never been so impressed by someone in LI; plus he is a mighty fine hunk of a man.

will and Jessie are so well suited; that’s Aussies for you though. They genuinely appreciate people who do jobs like that. The Aussie LI girls all say that they want a tradie

Molly Mae was a bombshell that season too. And Tommy and Curtis.

RandomersAssociation · 02/02/2023 09:15

Well, I think we can see why Tom’s conversations never achieve much depth - he has no vocabulary.

I know how this sounds - truly - but it’s sad to think people can reach adulthood, speaking English as their first language, and never have heard the word ‘platonic’. Not as a philosophical thing, just it’s common or garden useage. Particularly people going on to a relationship-based reality show!

I got the impression Will is from a very wealthy background.

Jessie’s accent, and I know this is not a popular opinion, is jarring. There was a time I loved the Aussie accent, but nowadays I find it so high pitched and hard to listen to. I was listening to an Australian on the radio today whose accent had levelled out instead of going uP aND DoWN and was lovely.

I actually thought he was joking when he asked Ellie about what she meant by "platonic" 🤦‍♀️I will never understand why all these women flock to him.

XelaM · 02/02/2023 10:11

@MrsElijahMikaelson1 love it😂

@Chasedbythechaser agree about Jessie's accent. As for Will being wealthy, I actually get the impression all the boys (apart from maybe Kai) are from well-to-do backgrounds

Giving Tom the benefit of the doubt; he’s a professional footballer so I would hazard a guess that education has never been particularly high in his agenda? 🤷‍♀️
