Justifying your free, luxury treats as helping the impoverished people of Bali, like Tully did, is distasteful to me. It's gross even outside the political situation. To claim your luxury vacation is a great help to the poor is disgusting.

This is the absolute worst. Even an idiot would already know tourism is important to Bali but because there is no limit to visitors it has come at a price:
  • lacking sewage infrastructure (say goodbye to clean creeks/rivers, seaweed and coral etc...)
  • lacking rubbish infrastructure (sooooooooooooooooo much plastic)
  • over-development (some of which includes land reclamation - no, not a good thing) therefore encouraging more and more visitors
  • excessive wastage of clean water which is limited anyway
  • etc...
All this dickhead is really doing is helping the greedy investors/developers in exploiting the environment, the land, the people, and the culture. This world's foremost expert on being a hypocritical sh!tbag, Tully, needs to take her so-called "hard-earned freebies" and stick 'em fair up her .....

Good for her I guess. I don't think she promotes dangerous diets does she? I agree that people really don't need that much money.

She still hasn't beaten Ryan though.

That is true. But who can beat Ryan? Who can beat the richest person in the world? His wealth is so vast that smaller nations borrow money off him, and the fate of the world's various stockmarkets hangs on whether he enjoyed his breakfast in the morning. He is so rich that he could buy Tasmania and convert it into a giant water park with laser gun shows.

Actually, that's reminded me of the Paleo café that David opened in South Melbourne. I wonder how it's going and if anyone's been to it.

Life after reality TV for Tully Smyth, Gina Liano, Janet Roach, Laurina Fleure, Anthony Capon and Lee Chan

It's the Melbourne red carpet screening for one of the year's most anticipated movies – Fifty Shades of Grey. As celebrity photographer Anthony Licuria snaps the invitees, some of the most recognisable include reality TV's Tully Smyth (Big Brother), Brynne Gordon (ex-wife of Geoffrey Edelsten and star of My Bedazzled Life), Gamble Breaux and Pettifleur Berenger (new additions on The Real Housewives of Melbourne, season two), Laurina Fleure and Chantal Hryniewski (most recent series of The Bachelor).

All of them are ready for their close-ups, as their dresses come in the asset-baring options of short (Fleure), see-through (Hryniewski), cropped (Smyth), plunging and animal printed (Brynne) and tight (Berenger, Breaux). Can anyone blame them? Andy Warhol's 15 minutes of fame only applied to the garden-variety brand of humankind. If you're a star of reality TV, you can stretch that time limit out considerably.

So what happens to regular Melbourne folk once they hit reality TV – and when that show is over? Some of them fade into the annals of discount DVDs, while others become fully-fledged celebrities, at least technically. (I'm going by the fact that some of the contestants on I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here include those who are "famous" wholly from reality TV.) And others have to pick up the debris that reality TV has left behind. Take one controversial Melbourne participant, who was cast in an unfavourable light on her show, only to have a shoe thrown at her from a passer-by in a car and her business premises egged, or so the rumours went. Reality TV can change reality – and not always for the better.

Tully Smyth, a former Big Brother contestant who was vilified by the public after she cheated on her then-girlfriend when inside the house, is a fixture on Melbourne's social scene. Although she is quick to say that she loved her time shooting the series and doesn't fault the show for the fallout she experienced, dealing with the aftermath was brutal. She would read tweets by haters – the worst of which suggested she kill herself.

"It was awful, the hardest year of my life," she says. "There were some really dark days there. I had a huge amount of regret and remorse for [how I behaved], and I was left with my own devices to deal with it. We were always told there was a psychologist available to us, but my concern was that a) we were not inclined to ask for help, and b) I didn't feel comfortable talking about my issues from the show with someone who was linked to the show.

"To [production company] Southern Star's credit, they were more than happy to pay for a psychologist of my own choosing. I actually think there should be mandatory check-ins with all contestants of reality TV for one month, for six months after the show. You go from being a nobody to being a somebody. You're made to feel like you're going to be a superstar, and then you struggle to realise you're a nobody again [once the show is over and forgotten]."

Wrong again, Michael.

Also, excellent tweets by the vocally talented Lina. I have really enjoyed her social media posts.
