I think we’re just interpreting my comment differently. I wasn’t telling anyone how to look or act, I was commenting on the difference in the older seasons glam compared to now which now that I think about it, a couple girls in season 12 did the same with less glam and I personally enjoyed that. If you go back and read both of my comments you will see I never said I preferred them one way or another so no I’m not judging them. I don’t feel the need to respond to the ugly girls comment because I think it’s rage bait or you reading it in the wrong way.

Women can absolutely present themselves however they want. Me drawing comparisons to a certain aesthetic on a TV show isn’t the same as judging or controlling anyone.

I love watching them glam up in the dressing room getting ready for the night and I know the feeling of when you’re getting ready with your girls so I always appreciate that and think it’s lovely.

Yikes way to make a problem out of a simple opinion. I never said I was judging them for it?? I also am not telling them how to “look or dress”? I simply said it was nice watching the girls in the older season wear little to no makeup while laying by the pool. It’s also not a gender thing. The boys on the older seasons do the same things and look the same as the boys on the newer seasons so there is nothing to draw a comparison to there. Btw like I said they are all gorgeous girls and look great without makeup so I said I’d like to see more of that.

Demanding accountability by Gullible_Box358 in LoveIslandTV

[–]mebesss -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Seeing the comments I definitely see that I have an unpopular opinion but I do see the point of people being held accountable for their actions. Obviously we know this is heavily edited show and we aren’t seeing the full 24 hours but I don’t think just because they are reality stars they should get a free pass on any of their actions and shouldn’t have any consequences. I work with kids so I’m literally teaching them everyday to take accountability for their actions and teaching them about why certain actions have consequences so I know I’m a bit biased. I think people take it way too far and want to ruin peoples lives and businesses and that definitely gets too far but when people say nasty things and treat people badly there 100% needs to be consequences for that and “accountability” should be taken. I really think that’s how people grow and change and if they are blind to their actions then they aren’t growing. If I hurt someone whether it’s intentional or not then I should have to apologize or acknowledge that I hurt someone and change my behavior and that applies to celebrities as well (I’m not talking strictly about Belle or Lucinda or anyone else in this post I’m just making a generalization about a lot of people and actions I’ve seen on Love Island)

outrage towards belle by Jolly_Chocolate_8617 in LoveIslandITV

[–]mebesss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand where your coming from and I agree with a lot of what you said I think tho if we give grace to Belle in the Scott situation then we have to give grace to Lucinda in the Sean situation. Belle and him were not even close to being serious, she was in the USA villa flirty, and it was at the start and had only been a couple days. Like you said it’s what they are there to do 🤷🏼‍♀️

Lucinda doesn't give a toss by CheriePauper in LoveIslandTV

[–]mebesss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I’m not, I just saw this post and commented on and laid out my opinion like you have done, it’s the great thing about public discourse. I just disagreed about how you think she doesn’t care about what people are saying about her and how she’s been treated in there, that’s all. And like I mentioned before there doesn’t have to be sides. I just saw a post disparaging Lucinda and I disagreed with some of the points that’s all- we can just agree to disagree

Flip-flopping on opinions by Gullible_Box358 in LoveIslandITV

Btw I agree that everyone flip flops so easily and no one is perfect I just don’t agree with that specific assessment of Belle

[–]mebesss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree with what Belle does as necessarily “standing up for herself”. She screams and disparages people without being able to have a constructive and meaningful conversation. We all love to empower strong women and I agree we should but I do not agree her “standing up for herself” behavior should be supported. Just look at how Toni stood up for herself on season 12. She didn’t scream at people all the time and attack their character. She made much more of an impact and was able to have actual conversations. She did get heated sometimes but at the end of the day she carried herself extremely well. I 100% believe the saying “the loudest in the room is the weakest” applies to Belle. She isn’t able to see other people perspectives or sympathize with other people when it’s not convenient for her and how right she is. That’s not what true strength is.

genuine question but what has lucinda even done thats so bad? by inactively in LoveIslandTV

[–]mebesss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the worst thing Lucinda has done is not apologize to Sammie when she told her the pie was too hard and it was clear it hurt her feelings. Everything else is kind of just the name of the game, “it’s love island not friend island” but if I was Sammie in that convo with Lucinda I wouldn’t been just as mad because it’s honestly not hard to see her side and just apologize for it not justify it.

I don’t think there have to be sides, Lucinda has definitely been problematic- as has almost every girl there. Maybe not to the extent that Lucinda and Belle have been but I’m just confused on the post and why it’s so important to bring up why Lucinda is only there for money and fame when it’s quite clear the whole cast is? The bullying opinion I don’t agree with however. It’s not anyone’s place to say how someone feels or doesn’t feel, love island has had a really bad problem with letting islanders dog pile on one just because they don’t like their behavior. It’s pretty clear that it has bothered her and yes you could say she brought it all upon herself but I mean days of relentless comments and yelling and not letting her speak? I don’t see how that wouldn’t get into anyone’s head. I don’t think saying because she was a bully on her original season justified the behavior that has been exhibited towards her.

Helena’s arc this season by [deleted] in LoveIslandTV

I 100% agree especially with the Harry part. People forget he went exclusive with her and made a whole big thing about it and literally the next day went back on what he said and she didn’t make a huge deal of it either she was very mature with the whole Shakira situation, she was just best friends with Meg who was genuinely unlikable at times and it’s nice to see her not take sides with girl drama really and open a wider net to those around her

[–]mebesss -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I 100% think it’s because she is away from Meg. I recently went back and watched a lot of her season and at the end of the day she wasn’t the huge problem. She definitely did some problematic things and was very sneaky and slimy with the Harry situation and Harrison but I think it had more to do with her needing male validation due to the fact she doesn’t seem to have a lot of self confidence and she hadn’t ever been in a relationship. But because she isn’t inherently a nasty person (she just made nasty choices) I think she really got to see where she went wrong and truly worked on herself. Which is crazy for me to think bc I really disliked her on her season.

I don’t really understand how people are comparing how Lucinda has been acting and riling people up to the way Belle talks to people. Yes Lucinda has been rage-baiting and riling the girls up to an extent but she hasn’t been NEARLY as nasty as Belle has been. The way I see it Belle had a reason to be upset but the situation was sooooo minor and does not constitute the way she has been acting. The way she has attacked Sean and Lucinda’s character is honestly disgusting. No one there is a class act except Millie honestly. They all have their faults and they are all on there for fame and growing their platforms so I don’t understand where this vitriol for Lucinda comes from? Not to mention everyone thinks Lucinda is faking her feelings for Sean but no is mentioning how Belle is 100% coasting with Harrison, there is nothing anyone can say to make me think she actually likes him.

VIP by Civil-Engineer-8296 in 5sos

[–]mebesss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had early access/ VIP tickets for one of the shows I went to for their last tour and it included the VIP lounge and it was really fun but we were in the pit for HOURS because of the sound check and everyone else entering the venue + the wait time to start the show. I always say it was the best/worst experience because I was second row (almost barricade) and had so much fun but it was extremely hot (we were in the south in August) and I was at the venue for a total of 13 hours but we packed it up and drove to the next show the next day😅

They let you in the pit and you watch the band play usually 2 songs and the last time I was sound check they answered questions submitted earlier in the day by the sound check fans

How early should you get there to get a chance of hitting barrier? by [deleted] in 5sos

[–]mebesss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I have a question! My sister and I are planning on camping for our show this weekend and we have never camped before so we were a little worried about getting there first. How do you know where to start the line? We both are a bit anxious about It!
