The Spice girls: We're annoying, so what?
People probably think we’re being b----es, but we’re just being honest and many people can’t handle that.

Popularity has never been their strong point.

They’ve been called everything from “Spice Girls” to spoilt brats, but MKR’s Jessie Khan and Biswa Kamila are used to not winning friends. “I said to Mum the other day, ‘My friends are coming over to watch TV,’ and she said, ‘What friends?’” Biswa, 23, reveals.

“We don’t have many friends,” Jessie, 25, agrees. “People probably think we’re being b----es, but we’re just being honest and many people can’t handle that… I probably am high maintenance.” The girls know their mile-a-minute chatter can put people off. “People might envy the fact we have the courage to say what we want…We are loud, we are opinionated and we are in your face.”

With a boyfriend of seven years and a wedding on the cards, Jessie is struggling to choose her bridal party. “I was thinking about who to have as my bridesmaids and I am having trouble choosing someone else besides Biswa,” she says. “I’m choosing one of my friends who is a boy!”Don’t expect them to change.

“One person has to be the bad guy – and if it’s us, let it be,” Jessie says. “We are fussy and know what we want. If it makes us princesses, then I guess we are princesses. Princesses know what they want and they get it.”

I'd be totally embarrassed and downright ashamed if they were my children.. They aren't honest, they're rude, loudmouthed yobs who are so overinflated with ego that it's spilling over and poisoning the competition..
Considering the humiliation they endured on their night to cook you would think being humble would have been their greatest dish. They have learnt nothing except to show the rest of australia what ugly, arrogant, mean spirited people they are. The sooner they go the better!!!!!!
These 2 "girls" are just spoilt little brats, who have such a high opinion of themselves and think everybody else in the world are below them. They also CANNOT def. cook and I think will end up being eliminated.
The spice girls, NSW are a disgrace , they like to run everybody down , i wont be watching until they are gone. they are pathetic
after watching last nights show show i think the score they gave was very poor and i dont think the girls know what they are talking about and they shoul be kicked off the show after that performance maybe they should take a good look at themselfs before they judge others and learn how to cook because they know nothing about cooking
After watching last night's episode I am left with no doubt that the spice girls were just a set up to improve ratings and attract viewers. What a coup for Channel Seven that these two would show their ineptitude so soon after Mundine showed his, following a similar mouthy lead up and decisive defeat. Seriously, the spice girls can't even cook rice. I feel for them and hope the money is worth the humiliation. But sadly for the Australian population, Channel Seven knows us all too well, how much we revile the 'tall poppy' and, they played us like a piano.
What delusions of grandeur these two are suffering from. They're comparing themselves to princesses and don't seem to care who they offend and think it's ok to say exactly what they feel irrespective of the other person's feeling. Unbelievable. Can't wait to celebrate their elimination.
If the producers thought that a 'contraversial' couple would improve the ratings, then they appear to have shot themselves in the foot. There is nothing wrong with a little rivalry to keep viewers interested but this time they have gone too far and only succeeded in turning people off. I have waited with anticipation for the new series of MKR but the so-called Spice Girls episode has not left me wanting more but rather less. I will watch the next two nights in the hope that they are voted off and the series can continue with keen and talented contestants battling it out on an even playing field. The brother and sister are annoying but may just live up to their own opinion of their culinary skills. So I will reserve my judgement.
leave them alone, they did their best and why would they wont to tast their own creations if i was that bad, not silly. great publicity for them and channel seven.
enough said! they can't cook only be RUDE and any wonder they have no freinds

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, NSw10 CommentsPost commentView comments Mahalia Barnes transformed: I'm half my size!Mahalia Barnes transformed: I'm half my size!I agree 100%. Well done Mahalia, you look wonderful and are an inspiration to your daughter & lots of other women. But how ridiculous to suggest she is a size 8-10, I weigh 68 Kilos and being10cm taller I'm pretty confident I'm slimmer through the torso - but no way can I fit into an 8, a 10 maybe if its not too fitted.Chaz, Adelaide5 CommentsPost commentView comments
