Totally. And she was trying to defend herself in the comments and just digging herself deeper - like the article says, completely tone deaf.

Really idgaf if she sells fake tan but don't mix the bushfire donation in there as if your donations are only for publicity. My work has donated over $1m the last couple of weeks but we don't advertise it on Instagram mixcd in with promos for products because the point is to help the firies, not to help sell your stuff. She is worse than I thought. No one needs to make the bushfires into a 'positive situation.' It isn't at all. Ugh.

@Vjeff Yeah exactly - she was squabbling in the comments over whether it was fake tan or sunscreen (and what the SPF rating is?!) while completely missing the point that using the fires to sell anything is grossly inappropriate IMO.

She was also arguing she "has to eat" (so presumably sees shilling as her ~ work ~ now) but again, why bring the fires into it? Anyway, she'll have the DWTS viewers to deal with now, and from what I've seen, they're hardcore. laugh out loud

Timm and Ciarran were extremely fortunate and winners this season by not having to deal with after the show Angie. Im guessing the Botox froze more than her face. She sounds like a cold fish! Geez

Angie Kent is making her fourth reality TV appearance on Dancing With The Stars - and she's getting slammed for it

''Are there any reality TV shows Angie Kent won't do?''

She made us laugh on Gogglebox, kept it real on I'm A Celeb, found love on The Bachelorette and now, Angie Kent will be shimmying and shaking back onto our screens for the upcoming season of Dancing With The Stars.

For those of you keeping track, that's her fourth reality TV appearance and viewers are quite frankly fed up of seeing the 29-year-old on their screens, with many taking to social media to voice their frustrations.

Shortly after the official cast announcement dropped on Tuesday, Angie shared the news on her personal account, posting a photo of herself all dolled up with dance partner Julian Caillon on Instagram.

...

But social media was soon flooded with comments from fans remarking on how many reality TV projects Angie has taken part in, during such a short space of time.

"How many more reality tv shows r there for Angie to appear on, turning into Eddie everywhere McGuire," one person commented on Angie's Instagram post.

"What's next Big Brother, Married At First Sight, Farmer Wants A Wife?" asked another.

Twitter users also took to their devices with one person musing," Are there any reality tv shows Angie Kent won't do?"

Another asked, "How many Channel 10 reality shows can Angie Kent be on?"

...

Some contestants just won't go away.

Not only is her leg missing, but his arm/shoulder looks strange. What an awkward picture.

Going by the public SM reaction to Angie being on Dancing With The Stars the "Tall Poppy Syndrome" is alive and well in Australia. Personally I am looking forward to seeing Angie dancing and I will watch the show with interest.
Angie moved to Sydney to be with Carlin and IMO they seem happy together.

No not 'tall poppy syndrome' happening (altho I've seen ppl sprouting that on IG, and also claiming she's being bullied). I'm suspecting that's going to be the next onslaught of defense too

She's simply being called out and being held accountable for what is seen by many as lack as empathy and profiting in the face of catastrophe.

I've not had time to post on here but I've been reading and I want to say cheers and :yes:

to the posts that also see it as being poor behaviour on Angie's part. Also thank you for the rofl

Good to read your thoughts. I too am looking forward to seeing Angie on DWTS. IA Angie and Carlin look very happy - Carlin’s latest IG post

Tall Poppy Syndrome refers to a resentment of people who are exceptional and outstanding in their field. Angie isn't, IMO. Before Bette she did odd jobs such as nannying and is only "known" for being on reality TV, which IMO doesn't require any special skill.

By her own admission she isn't a good dancer, and IMO she doesn't have a good enough back story to compensate for that, and make the audience want her to keep her around. I would expect Angie (and the guy from MAFS) to be gone early in the competition.

Maybe then she might need to get a real job...

by Storybook Sun Jan 19, 2020 11:06 pm

The definition I read of Tall Poppy Syndrome is "...someone who has achieved notable wealth or prominence in public life"
IMO Angie is prominent in public life. She has become well known through her TV appearances. Now she has a marketable name companies use her and she has been signed up for DWTS. But the public have objections to her being on the show and vented this on SM.
I've watched DWTS before and there have been "stars" who have two left feet, but they improve. For me watching them improve is the best thing about the show.
If Angie wants to make the media of television her job I wish her success. Matty J has gone on to co-host a travel show and good for him having a job on TV.
As far as I know Carlin still has a job as a fitness trainer. Sam Wood has a successful career in the same field.
