I can’t be the only one who doesn’t believe Jay has real genuine interest in Chyna? She looks nothing like what I’d imagine his ‘type’ to be

To be honest I don't think he has a type. I saw his ex girlfriend's on tik tok and they both look completely different from eachother. Different races and hair colours. No only tanned and dark haired business, lol.
 
I agree with the comments about Jay- I really didn’t like him at first and whilst I do still think he’s vain and way to sure of himself I do think he has settled down a bit and realised they’re all a bit immature. I still stand by the fact him and Gemma could have a bit of a thing for each other though..if Luca was out of the picture it would be interesting to see if anything developed there. I think when Gemma looks back she will regret staying with Luca the whole time. She seems to enjoy chatting freely to the new boys without his beady eyes on her every move constantly questioning her feelings for him.
 
One and only said:
I’ve seen those comments on Twitter. Like was said earlier on here I don’t think ITV would dare after There’s something about Miriam- due to the backlash and IIRC Miriam ending up killing herself a few years after

Miriams partner actually thought she’d been murdered but I dont know the details. Maybe that was just grief speaking and not wanting to accept she’d very tragically killed herself.

she died in 2019, over a decade after the show aired. So I don’t think the two were related.

I’m so torn about this series.

On the one hand, all the guys are weasels. You know it’s bad when a massive player like Jay is being seen as the good one!

Davide’s comment about “upgrades” was very telling.

Luca is a game playing prick who is just trying to win. He sees Gemma as a ticket to 1million Instagram followers. He likes her, but he’s far more concerned with “holding her hostage” so she is too suffocated to actually get to know anyone new. She seems way more relaxed and has way more personality in Casa.

Jacques. I feel like I don’t even need to begin there with why he’s a prick.

Dami… ffs. If you like someone you don’t ‘snog’ other people just to confirm you actually like the person. Either you like them or you don’t. I hope they send in another Ovie bombshell for Indiyah. She deserves so much better. She’s easily been the most real and least problematic of all the contestants this year yet hasn’t had much screentime.

Andrew. He is literally getting with Coco as revenge against Tasha for making him look “like a mug” 🙄 saying “Tasha who?” And all this tit just makes him look like a nasty piece of work tbh.

….

On the other hand, it’s made excellent viewing!

I don’t think I like any of them.

Agree. I need to have a stern word with all of their mothers.
 
Not a fan of Luca but I'd never heard of Michael Owen before this show. Unless you're a middle aged football fan I don't get the big deal about him. People talking like he's on the level of an a-list actor or rock star and that Luca is all starry eyed. He's a has-been footballer and not even one of the greats that people still talk about.
I think Luca genuinely likes Gemma but it won't work in the outside. He's too insecure, controlling and jealous

You might not have heard of him but your description is inaccurate.

Michael Owen in his prime, for a brief time, was as big a star as Beckham. He scored one of the most famous England goals in a World Cup, against Argentina, in 1998 that EVERYONE in the country saw. It wasn't just football fans that knew him because the World Cup is the one event that is watched by the whole country.

Fame fades for all celebs over time, I can list loads of A-list actors/rock stars from the past that you wouldn't have heard of but to us older ones they are just as famous as modern ones are to you(that we haven't heard of 😀).
 
Tbf, Michael Owen is one of England’s best ever footballers. He played for Real Madrid and won the Ballon D’Or lol. He also keeps himself relevant these days by getting flamed on Twitter for his horrendous punditry and generally just being a fanny so if Luca’s into football then he’ll defo know who he is.

I’m not convinced that’s the reason he’s with Gemma though. I actually think he likes her and/or sees her as a prize because the boys clearly think she’s the best looking girl in the villa.

I’m sure his ex said he was very jealous and possessive so that’s obviously just how he behaves with women generally 🤮.
 
I feel like the comments all over social media about Michael Owen not being that famous, are the same as when every year people say the line up’s for I’m A Celeb and Strictly are really tit because they don’t know who the people are.

Just because you don’t know who they are doesn’t mean they aren’t famous.

I refuse to believe a die hard football fan in his 20’s wouldn’t have heard of Michael Owen.

I think Luca sees Gemma as a winning ticket because all the boys in the villa wanted her at the start so he knows she’s seen as very fit, she’s not been in the bottom, she’s young so most likely to appeal to fiat 500, and the bonus is her Dad is incredibly wealthy and famous.

He might well like her, but he’s way too full on.
 
Coco is the least attractive but because she shoved herself onto both Davide and Andrew she got some, she gives me such an ick. She has proper misplaced confidence imo always the loud ones, the other girls are far better but not trying to do the most like her they know it will come to them

He is still on TV a lot and worth £50million, he was huge in my middle aged day 😆
I agree that Luca likes Gemma and might chill out on the outside but can't see Luca in his wedding dress. Jay and Gemma is interesting, didn't she get his heart up the most? Plus she seems quite mature and Jay is coming across well after his ekin-assault.

Agreed

Fame is relevant to age.

I have no idea what Tom Holland looks like but Bruce Willis on the other hand.....

I have no idea what Sam Fender looks like but Liam Gallagher on the other hand..........

Out of those 4 names, only 2 are A-list in my eyes but then that's my age.

Just to give some context.

Tyson Fury in his prime has 2.1 million followers on Twitter, Danny Dyer in his prime has 1.2 million.....Michael Owen 10 years after retirement 3.7 million.

On a related subject to fame, what is Danica is doing?

Ronan Keatings' son is in the same villa(with a personality) yet she goes for the best looking lad with zero banter. I hope she enjoys getting to know him and i'll enjoy her being edited out of the show.
