Shakira put a shout out on social media for small brands to send her stuff and she will wear it and advertise. She said she gets loads of stuff from big brands so wanted to help out smaller ones.
Everything she has worn has been from a small brand and she tags/mentions them - the pink dress she had has sold out for that brand for example.
So it may not be what she is choosing but she is using her platform to help out small businesses.

I am over invested as off work whilst I have chemo ... so not much else to do!

I didn't see the episode last night but watched tonight. If Lorenzo declared his love for Jasmine, I think she would be tempted! Most of these couples are not going to be safe in casa. Yasmin should crack on in casa as Lorenzo is not worth the wait.
Priya doesn't seem overly fussed about the Samraj and Mica situation imo, I think she's using him as much as he's using her!
Suspect Tina and Tommy will likely be the next to go if they couple up, looks like she's done with Aiden 🤔

I see trouble ahead for Lorenzo and Yasmin. He’s not giving errr well as usual not giving anything really is he? And she’s getting worried.

I think it is obvious that Lorenzo is not interested in Yasmin. She is obsessed by his looks but I actually thinks that she finds him boring
She was actually better suited to Aiden

Hope Tina stays as she is good tv. She is giving Aiden a hard time and I am here for it
Aiden is not attracted to her , his type is obviously a petite blonde

Simba is trying to redeem himself but is not fooling anyone

Neithet Priya nor Mica really like Samraj

Lola and Sean boring as usual

I really don’t think Lorenzo is on it to find love. He keeps all his conversations superficial and friendly laughing and joking at every opportunity certainly not the sign of a man who wants commitment. I tend to agree with a PP who said he obviously comes from a wealthy family and to him women are just play things oh and it helps raise his profile on SM. Yasmin is coming across to needy with him as soon as Casa starts he’ll be off ! (As will a lot of them tbh)

The dynamic between Lorenzo and Yasmin is incredibly sad to watch. She’s a pleasant young woman but he clearly considers himself a million times beyond her league. It’s like he’s performing friendliness towards a friend’s cat - even though he doesn’t like cats!

This is surely the worst ever series in terms of the producers only ever airing Where’s your head at? I want to go on getting to know you conversations. I find it impossible to believe there are never any real conversations in the villa.

Does anyone else think that Yasmin is trying to act a bit like Lucinda with the ditzy voice and mannerisms? I don’t dislike Yasmin but it does look to me like she’s trying to be the next Lucinda

Heart rate challenge tonight! 🫣🤮

Oh no cringe ahoy

Priya really gets on my nerves, she’s acting desperate and spoilt. Does she forget she threw herself on lorenzo when he was with Jasmine. She’s very full of herself I don’t like her

I completely agree!
Why can’t we hear them talking about their lives, work, families, favourite music, places
they’ve been to etc
Cut out anything personal to anyone else
and let us get to know them.

Because it is all scripted . According to a previous islander they have ear pieces telling them to get up and start chatting to so and so hence why every 5 mins someone gets up for “do ya wanna go for a chat fire pit ?”🥱 same old same old. The format is tired and needs re-hashing or just bin it ! this series in particular has no genuine couplings in (even Lola and Fitz are dull as and are playing to win IMO)

Jas Yas whichever, needs to shut up and let someone else speak.

Kavan kept interrupting her.

Yeah ive said this for years. Boring myself lol

The producers only like everything staged and forced. They hate showing stuff that wasnt set up by them.
They are scared to show the true people.
Complete opposite of old school big brother.

She was bloody rude to him imo

Simba has a short fuse.

Lorenzo doesnt want a relationship with Jasmine. Both are being told to have this banter stuff.

Priya looks good.

I have no idea how any girl could be attracted to Aiden.

Lorenzo is getting funnier as time goes on.

Princess Jasmin is really up her self . She really thinks she is better than kav doesn’t she . Hope he gets rid.

Why space them out for this??

Priyas crazy behaviour must come from past experiences.

Lorenzo is not straight.
