Celebs go dating, anyone watching?

[Jellykat]

I know, i know, its pure crap, but i cant resist..
Anyone else?

They are all on it for the money/exposure (aka money) 'celebs'' and dates alike..The production company also makes money from the public responses on all social media channels. Being talked about pays.. even being slagged off. It's their choice to sign up and risk the exposure. Some people have big egos and will do 'anything' for money rather than getting a job. Model and Influencer is just a wishful thing, getting pregnant by a multimillionaire footballer is a gift and an excuse not to work but look down your nose at people who do and still struggle. Anyone that signs up knows they are opening themselves up to public scrutiny. It's the Rylan effect they all want, personality is required along with being in the right place at the right time...the terms of LGs generous settlement is revoked if she marries or moves a partner in to the 2.4m pound mansion she is living in rent and bill free

I've definitely gone off her after this comment.

Just watching last night's episode.

What's up with Jamelia's date who seems nice but very strange? Hand picked for compatibility? I'd be a bit offended if I was her!

I like Jamelia less than I did at the beginning and strangely Ella has grown on me. When she isn't being an annoying "OMG I'm trans... I've got a vagina... it's a lovely vagina..." she's actually genuinely funny.

Is next week the last week?

God, Jamelia is such a bore, she did NOT like him messing with her pizza 🙄

Seen some of this series but my opinion;

Helen- dresses like a Disney princess all the time. Just went on for the exposure, and the money.

Stephen- he’s talking like a crude Kenneth Williams. All the 1970s gay sexual innuendos! Do gay men in 2024 really talk and act like that? Ooh Matron…!

Lauren- she’s clearly not suited for the show. She’s also in my opinion nothing more than a wannabe wag.. She was with Kyle Walker , an England footballer.
Im sorry but when you’ve had a taste of that lifestyle, she’s hardly going to go out with a Dave who works as a plumber.
She wants fame and money . No one they present to her will ever be good enough for her.

I was amazed Tristan dumped all three, particularly Kea? Although I clearly suspect that lots of women would want to date him because he’s rich and on the tv.

Rewinding back to Danny, one of Ella’s previous dates.
I noticed he said he’s been into trans women for 20 years.
There’s nothing wrong I guess in dating a woman who happens to be trans, but I find it odd that a man would only be interested in dating trans women.Is this a fetish ?

I mean why only go for trans women as opposed to natural women? I don’t mean that in an unkind way I just mean that’s quite odd to only go for women who were once male.

And Reece seemed really annoyed to be dumped by Ella. I must be missing something, all these men falling for her !

Helen - I think she thinks she's some kind of Disney princess, but misses the mark visually by always wearing ridiculously low cut dresses. I've read some interesting things about her boyfriend.

Lauryn - she was impregnated twice by a footballer she wasn't in a relationship with and hoped she'd become a WAG. That's as far as she got with her ambition to be a WAG. She won't be interested in any man who isn't very well off. The tears about her battles are, in my opinion, an example of her need to win/get her own way. There were rumours of her and Anna not getting on, and people on the show saying she was difficult to work with.

Jamelia - I agreed with her about the second date. I thought he was nice initially but not so sure now.

Stephen - so full on, he's off putting. Like a randy embarrassing old uncle who everyone wants to avoid at a wedding.

Chris and Tristan - I don't care.

I think Ozzy and Jamelia both blew that one even if they have another date. I wouldn't want someone ruining my pizza with flour but he was clearly messing about even if he overstepped. She didn't need to accuse him of lying easily and compare him to her ex husband because he plays football part time. Heavy things to come out with.

Ella's histrionic behaviour is boring and I hope she grows out of it as she is quite funny. As soon as she develops a personality beyond being trans , spotting a TV opportunity linked to same
and now wanting a child, she might settle into someone quite rounded. I wonder what her interests are beyond all of this.

@Thecatatnight yes, just next week to go

I'm playing catch up with this week's episodes.

Robbie looks like he could be Helen's Dad. It doesn't help that the awful venners A. Don't match his bottom teeth and B. Just look like false teeth.

Sick of the sight of Helen's tits and constant 'dressing for the red carpet' look.

Agree re Jamelia actually being a tiny bit of a diva.

I've noticed Jamelia has got quite a walk when she struts up to the Agency - maybe it's the heels but it's a bit catwalk style. I think with her that they're just not finding the right kind of date and she's not playing along.

Ella can be quite full on and I do wonder if Alex, the latest 'he's the one!' will last. I mean, if he doesn't want more kids and Ella can't physically have them is she talking about adoption with a virtual stranger on date 2?!

Helen 'Tits McGee' Flanagan - how funny that her fella wanted to have a go at her cooking calling it cat food! He has a crazy set of gnashers to be sure. I'm surprised he's gone along with this couples therapy schtick.

Ella can be quite full on and I do wonder if Alex, the latest 'he's the one!' will last. I mean, if he doesn't want more kids and Ella can't physically have them is she talking about adoption with a virtual stranger on date 2?!

I think Ella said previously that they'd frozen sperm, so would need a surrogate. I might have imagined that though.

Ella said she'd had the opportunity to freeze what she calls her eggs but chose not to because she was young at 17 and regrets it now. She's grown in me too from the mafs days

Ah yes, I remember her saying that now @Parrotseatthemall , I remember thinking at the time that it was a perfect example of why 17 is to young to make such a decision.

I agree Jamelia and Stephen were unnecessarily judgmental of Chris when Tristan did exactly the same thing, and Stephen hasn't exactly been nice or kind to his dates!

Watching last night's episode, I agree with the agents' dressing down of Tristan and he seemed to take it on the chin, but why oh why do they keep sending him these airheads? It's blatantly obvious he wants someone, probably from his world but who is genuine and shares his interests - he's a bird watcher and likes nature! So they send him another beauty queen who 'likes posh boys and doesn't want to split the bill'! 🙄They probably can't find any intelligent, 'normal' people to take part in something like this...

And sorry but I can't warm to Ella...it's all about validation for her, these 'straight, cis guys' being into her while she, aside from being trans, is so fake in terms of her looks AND behaviour (how she spoke about Lauryn and leading her previous date/s up the garden path). Wonder how her current date's kid might feel seeing Daddy cavorting on telly with her...or bringing her home! 😨

I also don't really understand the Lauryn hate, she's coming across much more 'normal' and actually a decent human being than most of the others! I haven't followed her outside of this so don't really know but I can imagine she's so broken because of the abuse she seems to be getting from everywhere! And not sure about the agents coercing her to ring this guy to turn him down, even if it went OK.

That’s why she might appear normal. If you read the court files you wouldn’t think she was nice and normal. You know she’s a blackmailing stalker. Who asked kyle and Annie’s neighbour to spy on them in their garden and to secretly record them. As well as blackmailing kyle to try and keep the kids a secret. And she’s constantly made jabs at Annie who isn’t actually the ones who’s done anything wrong apart from stick with kyle.

Oh as well as being convicted for benefit fraud.

Reece was very full on to Ella wasn’t he. Though probably a lucky escape 😅

Sorry but I think it's a bit weird that you would read someone else's court files...

...while accusing them of stalking?

It’s been in the papers and on other threads on here.

And Jamelia's gone from people pleasing to full on negging and passive aggression!

I don't understand what this means. Ella is a man and has never had any eggs to freeze.
