I took my sister’s child away from herI took my sister’s child away from herwow....!!!!!????, oh26 CommentsPost commentView comments Another MKR hot hook-up!Another MKR hot hook-up!Vinny Jones from Sydney - I personally think the Spice Girls were not nasty and vicious as Sophia and Ashlee. I really do think the Spice Girls were very inmature and silly young ladies, but they were not nasty and vicious like those 2 Cabramatta girls. Fancy them saying after they did not win at the Sydney markets that they would have done a better job of making the Vietnamese Pork Rolls, that the brother and sister team won in that challenge. Sophia and Ashlee must have seen green that day, with smoke coming out of their ears. SUFFER. Obviously you both think you can do better, but the public that came for lunch at the market didn't think so. You live and learn.anniepoo, Melbourne10 CommentsPost commentView comments Who wore it better Kim or Robin Williams?Who wore it better Kim K or Robin Williams?Kim's dress is disgusting, WAY too much floral print. If the dress was sleeveless with a lower neckline and a bottom hem that finished above the knee, it may have looked a little better. It looks like she threw grandma's curtains over her and walked out the door!!Chantelle, Sydney10 CommentsPost commentView comments Michelle Bridges stole my husbandMichelle Bridges stole my husbandWho cares whether Michelle is 43 or 50 years old. This is a very immature thing to do. Of course he is only thinking with his old fella instead of his brain as he sure doesn't give a damn about his kids. Michelle does not have any so she don't care. Both should go off quietly together as they are both pathetic.Pip, NSw9 CommentsPost commentView comments Seal explodes!Seal explodes!Seal, I have been following you for some time in particular the music arena.
