Alright. All gloves are off. Claws are out. Finger clapping at the ready.

I noticed it on the trailer last night. Styled by Lard.

i think her eyelashes / makeup is from her stage presence body builder kit , fortunately she hasn’t done the gravy browning thing they do in the competitions

For some reason that gave me a flashback to Jacqui (Mad Eyes) the NZ person on last years MAFSAU and her weirded bronzer usage.

Oh jacqui.

Julia-Ruth WISHES she could be even half the drama of jacqui.

she was phenomenal. I wonder if she’s still with that guy who had the big house?
in my head I picture them in a photoshoot , both dressed in white and posing with a tiger, either a dead tiger or one they’ve got in captivity.
she’d still have terribly applied self tan

Remember the retreat with Dom smashing the glass and Olivia lying about being threatened with the smashed glass? That was proper drama.

I'm actually watching that season for the first time on the app at the moment. There's various articles online discussing how production, editing and direction cast participants as villains. Olivia lost her fledgling teaching career, apparently gets in person and online abuse. She does not deny the bridesmaid dress story though.

Empress13 · 22/10/2025 22:34

Just catching up on MAFS as Traitors was more entertaining! I do think Divvy could be on the spectrum

Yep they are engaged and live in Tasmania. Clint was a fruit loop as well as her

There's only so much producers can do in terms of setting a narrative of who's the baddie and who isn't. Participants are still the ones who say all the shit stuff and do all the crazy stuff (like accuse someone of waving a broken glass in their faces).

Several of the men this year seem to be saying as little as possible, Leo, Div, Reiss isn't exactly spouting off, even Ash, they seem to be saying nothing about anything perhaps hoping to fly under the radar. Interesting that all four are sleeping with their partners, whereas the extremely vocal Crystal and Leah actually aren't so far. The men seem quite content to have sex with whoever's put in front of them and then work out if they are vaguely compatible from that point out.

Whoever is doing the lighting this year is making everyone look as tatty as possible, Maeve's make-up was so bad in that last episode, muddy as anything and even the lovely Grace looked like a waxwork doll with red lips. Leah may in fact be a skin covered robot as she in no way looks human, her and Rebecca have the tiny eyes, shiny face combo down to a tee. I'd love to see Maeve without the very heavy make-up and ratty hair, she looks like she would be pretty.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 23/10/2025 00:36

If Steven and JR got together in RL they would be a right pair of nutcases.

Worse than Jacqui and Clint.

I hope I'm around in 20 year's to see the long-term results of the filler faces. 😆
Katie price, I suppose.

Frequentlyincorrectbut · 23/10/2025 00:57

I think JR and Steven would be a huge power struggle, but they'd probably both quite enjoy it. Nelly isn't enough of a challenge for Steven and he's become contemptuous of her dependency and inability to see him for who he is. He knows he's a bit of a shit deep down and thinks less of Nelly for begging him to be nice to her.

I have to say I quite enjoyed JR's performance this evening though, she's stunning and attention-seeking and no-one else is remotely interesting.

EdithBond · 23/10/2025 01:27

LeanToWhatToDo · 22/10/2025 21:25

Div and Nelly
Steven and JR
Maeve and Leo

Joe and Sarah

EmeraldShamrock000 · 23/10/2025 02:20

They would definitely be a power couple with huge egos, psychopaths.😅
Nelly is really embarrassing herself, her dignity is on the floor. I always believed really smart professional people had their shit together in their personal lives.

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 23/10/2025 07:20

Will these people stop clinging on for air time.

Most of them must have made behind the scenes agreements such as Jonno and Lauren (MAFS AuS) because why else are they staying ?

NoraButty · 23/10/2025 08:33

Had anyone thought what deals they might have in mind, or what they might get offered.

I can only think of Panto for Dean and JR. Dean as an ugly sister and JR as a wicked stepmother.

Although Reiss might have a look in modelling suits for Moss Bro.

Notabean · 23/10/2025 09:32

Thought Rebecca really reminded me of Rachel Griffiths on last nights episode.

Its QUASH.
You squash something physically, you quash an issue.

It’s more complicated than that but I hate that you’re wrong because I agree with you

Davide - keep seeing him in shower so Radox
Crystal - becomes a therapist, maybe takes over from experts.
Leigh - eye patches obvs
Anita - motorbike helmets
Paul - Fixadent

Alice - I keep picturing her at Nequay with a surfboard - board wax?
Leo - Richmond sausages
Reiss - male lipstick (the pout) or Reiss clothes
Leisha - against all advice will run an animal shelter
I don't need to see John and weightlifting wotsit again but they'd hold a box of anything and grin from the looks of it

I think they should do a couple swap option - everyone secretly writes down who (if anyone) they want to switch their partner for and if there's a match then they swap. Brutal, but I am getting bored of watching couples going nowhere.

JR and Stephen? April and Ashley?

Oooooh evil! I love it

GertieLawrence · 23/10/2025 10:51

If camel eyelashes says LIKE one more time I will scream

brownalien · 23/10/2025 10:59

Ash and Grace - I liked Grace but she’s boring me now and Ash just can’t win with her.

April and Leo - Christ alive he’s boring. She’s bored. She definitely wants Ash and I for one would find them more interesting.

JR and Div kid - Boring boring boring. Div is thick as and JR is an attention whore but done badly. Hopefully she steps up and plays a proper villain. Div, divorce.

Maeve and Joe - Next

Nelly and Steven - She’s cringe to the max. He’s gross.

Reesha - Can’t stand her face, makes me ill. Uncanny valley.

The Lees - FNBs

Davide and Keye - Don’t remotely care

Bodybuilder and the non-blinking man - No drama = boring as hell.

Is that everyone?

Frequentlyincorrectbut · 23/10/2025 11:04

I feel a bit sorry for Grace, though, as I don't think she's in it for fame at all, and she doesn't have great insight into how she comes across or how that might contribute to a certain dynamic and I think she'll internalise that. Now, Ash is a bit of an unreconstructed rugby type and so it's worse with him than it might be with someone else, and they are clearly not well-matched humour wise which is a fatal flaw. She will take this hard though, when really they just aren't compatible.

Yes, me too. I think she has really invested in Ash and tried to change a lot and let him in. I don't think he has done as much, just waved the book about and checked himself a few times. Him clearly eyeing up April and making that Grace's fault again (I can't get my wife to laugh but I can get April to laugh) shows he just wants to be fawned over and she's not going to do that for his rather lame predictable "jokes".

I hope she gets herself a nice Doctor or someone with a thoughtful side, an intellectual would suit her well I think. I think she does mental health side of maternity so she clearly is more thoughtful and respectful of women and their experience, so she needs someone who understands that.

menopausalfart · 22/10/2025 20:59

Nelly should say, you can have him, he's fking gross just like you.

Yes! take him

EmeraldShamrock000 · 23/10/2025 13:05

April and Ash have a undeniable spark.
Grace is aware of the spark. Drama will follow.

Omg remember Jacqui and Clint. So bad, it’s like they were invented for reality Tv.
