Aphrodite - Your 15 Minutes Are Up So Piss Off
It’s not often I begin to actually hate a Big Brother housemate. Sure, Jessica Hardy drove me mental, but even at her very, very worst I didn’t really hate her. But congratulations, Aphrodite - the combination of your irritating, tantrum throwing behaviour in the house with your displays of utter cuntishness since leaving the house has awarded you the coveted prize of (drumroll please…)
And what exactly has Aphro done to push me over the edge? Well, let’s be honest - there wasn’t all that much room between me and the edge in the first place. In any case, Aphrodite turned rather abusive after being evicted from the house (as we are slowly learning) and began ranting and raving about Terri. Now, I don’t remember them detesting each other all that much in the house! At least, not enough to warrant the flood of abuse Aphrodite let loose on Triple M in Adelaide. Right click save as, babes! Allow me to write you a transcript.
The radio station (pleasant and charming people that they are) played this during their interview with Terri to get a good reaction from her. To her credit, Terri didn’t bite at all, merely saying Aphrodite must be slightly troubled to feel the need to say such things, and pointing out that it’s a good indication of Aphrodite’s maturity. God damn it, I can’t believe I’m going to say this but… Terri, you are a classy woman.
Whether or not Terri has an annoying laugh is not the question. Terri was never mean to anyone in the house, not one person. She may have had disagreements, she may have created an imaginary backstabbing by Paul in her mind, and she may have been cheeky enough to pick arch enemy Krystal for the have-nots during a task, but she was never mean.
There is no excuse in the world for Aphrodite releasing such vitriol towards a housemate. Making fun of a person’s appearance (other than John W. Howard) constitutes a low blow in my books, and I’ve always made an effort to never poke fun at someone’s looks or weight or anything else they can’t really help (though hair is a free-for-all as far as I’m concerned). As for Terri’s laugh - well, yes, admittedly Terri tends to giggle inexplicably after every sentence. But hey - at least she’s laughing, rather than being a sour, miserable wench choosing to cry or scream to get attention from people because she’s insecure and pathetic.
Aphrodite, you might have expected to become a “star” after going into the Big Brother house, but instead you just revealed yourself to be a nasty, unpleasant, whining, two-faced cow. Your post eviction behaviour towards an ex-housemate was immature and quite frankly sad. Grow up, fuck off, and get yourself a half-decent surname while you’re at it. Who names themselves after a bloody handbag?

I loved aph on the first night ,i thought to myself this girl could be the winner! Then what came next was just shocking and i prayedshe would be evicted, When she blamed her moods on P.M.T on Rove i had a bit of sympathy for her, now i agree with Crystal she is just fucking nasty,

I agree wholeheartedly. My opinion of Terri has gone up several notches after how diplomatically she handled not only the unwarranted verbal abuse from Aphrodite but the setup from MMM. And she has maintained a surprising degree of aplomb, self-deprecating humour and dignity during interviews despite her salacious characterisation.
I would go so far as to say Afro probably has a narcissistic personality disorder with borderline and dependent traits.
Wonder what will happen with the group reunions at the end ?

Couldn’t agree more, Aphrodite is a nasty piece of work. What’s the point of slandering people on radio for plucking hair!? She just has to domineer everything and everyone. The thing I don’t get is why Merlin liked her, he seemed like a sensitive guy who should be able to judge people better than that. Let’s hope we never ever have to hear her grating voice again.

Mmm, I totally agree. I can’t believe I ever liked Aph, (and at the start hated Terri!) She’s just so fucking nasty, and obviously has problems.
Good on Tezza though, she IS classy for reacting like that.
And rather than commenting in the post below as well, I will just say I agree with you about Monica and Voileta too. And I am loving Bree’s reaction to both of them. Haha! I really don’t like Bree these days, so I find it hysterical both of the intruders are getting to her.
