jasmine looks great in those photo's. She's not smiling and i don't think i've ever seen her without that cheshire cat grin. Who ever styled her did a bang up job because she looks hot hot hot. Her hair looks better than ever and i actually think from these shots she'd be a brilliant model...
 
I don't think you need to apologise at all. I've been a bit surprised too, but in a positive light, a lot of people held their tongues (to be nice or out of respect for Drew). Now they've been proved right and they're gloating, but in my case I gloated because I was sure I was right and that Drully was a fact, so it feels a bit like karma. That said, as you know, I don't think the relationship ending is necessarily a bad thing. I sort of hope that Tully in particular reflects on these last drama filled months and asks herself how she can move forward in a way that enhances her strengths and ensures that her insecurities are minimised. As for Drew, I just want him to go back to uni :)

I will defend Tully by saying she very motivated to achieve her goals and to further her career (however people interpret that), so I think Drew's ambiguity about completing his degree probably drove her mad. Time is probably more important to her because she doesn't know how long she has left with her mum, and she fears that she with suffer the same fate.
 
I was confused at first, but [MENTION=34018]littlebear[/MENTION] set me straight that Scotty is actually quoting lyrics from 50cent. So no malice after all.
Drew has this weird streak with his posts some times - particularly the references to fire, but hey yeah very sexy all the same. :rolleyes:

i wondered what 50cent had to do with it, i thought he posted a video but i was only seeing a photo

i like Drew's posts, i worry about them, but i like them, always an unexpected view :D

I 100% agree with this. My biggest fear is that Tully comes away from all of this not really having learnt anything and with her 'no one loves me as much as I love them' viewpoint reinforced. I hope that this can at least lead to positive growth for her.

The guy who styled her is pretty damn tootin'. I've never met Tre but a few of my friends have booked him for various things and each time I've almost fallen over with how amazing they looked. He wasn't expensive either which is always a massive plus.

That was the scariest thing she said by far. It was painful to watch. Someone said recently that they sometimes turned the show off when Tully was in full flight. I confess to doing the same, and this was in spite of the fact that I didn't have an issue about her having a relationship with Drew. She's a very fragile person in some ways, yet paradoxically she she's also tough as well. I suspect we'll see more of her, but sadly much less of Drew.

I LOVE teppanyaki. The Japanese do even better BBQ's than we think we do :)
 
i've always said it. What we watched on tv was not easy and i find it hard to understand why so many people loved her based on what we saw. I have much respect for the way she handled herself afterwards and have said that also, but we don't see everything that happens between them now so i'm sure it hasn't changed much. I don't think anyone has been high five-ing or gloating, just commenting on what was said in the article because as you agree, it doesn't make sense. I was never hoping it would last or hoping it wouldn't, but i'm not surprised it didn't given how volatile they were in the house.
What I said wasn't directed at you, but in my opinion there's been gloating but as I said, I've gloated over other things so it's swings and roundabouts.
 
I know it is partly her 'job'... But - while I find her interesting and even a little intriguing... Tully seems in the main very self serving to me. Not every second of the day (don't shoot me) but... Really - do we really care THAT much about every little thing she wears or eats? I kind of admire her ability to milk a situation to her benefit. BUT it seems a little shameless to me. and therefore I don't find her particularly endearing or inspiring. Yes I have seen she has done one or two appearances at 'charity type events'. But the self promotion and fashion promotion of every item she wears to the extent that she undertakes it turns me off. I would like her more if she didn't appear to be so utilitarian.

I admit I was ( and still am) a supporter of their relationship and desperately wanted it to work. But I agree with you wholeheartedly about the Instagram posts being a bit over the top. It gets to the stage where her posts are not interesting to look at because there are so many of them. I am now a bit over the endless dog selfies, fashion shots and girls with tongues out and licking each other shots. I still support Tully, but not her Instagram account. And I know I said I would leave it alone but here goes ... the fashion shots instagrammed of her magazine interview I found disrespectful. It seemed like - yes we have broken up, it is sad, etc , ... By the way check out this great outfit I am wearing. I realise that the two of them know personally where they sit and are happy ( at least I hope so) with this - I hope they can work it out one way or the other.

Once Tully agreed to that interview she had no control. The shots chosen, and what was printed were out of her hands. Blame the editor. Some may blame Tully for doing the interview, but it was a smart move IMO.
 
I'm not sure why, but I'm kind of surprised that so many of you guys see Tully in quite such an awful light. I mean, I definitely agree about the "risked so much" nonsense, but wow, what a harsh view of their relationship and her character in having manipulated it. She's obviously a deeply flawed individual, but yeah, I just don't see most of that assessment at all. Which I'm sure comes as no surprise. Anyway. Sorry. Wish you all had just let it out sooner.

[MENTION=34018]littlebear[/MENTION]... I posted a comment a few weeks back regarding the relationship being doomed from the get go. I am sincerely sorry if you are shocked at the responses. My gut feeling all along has been that Relationships are hard enough WITHOUT all the public scrutiny these 2 have either copped or attracted. Tully could have issued a statement on her blog 4 weeks ago (as she did with her apology to Tahlia) regarding her split with Drew... She chose to drag it out on SM, attracting the negativity and then making a song and dance of the haters with her sarcastic YouTube clips.

I really don't know anymore whether Tully 'fell for' Drew as a ploy to stay in the house longer, thinking Tahlia wouldn't care if she showed affection for him....or if she actually fell for him as a person. I've been asking this same question in my posts for a while now... How is Drew coping with Tully's continued involvement with her Ex and her hanging with the girl thing crew. I absolutely agree that she didn't 'risk' anything. On the contrary, she actually risked Drew's chances of winning the game! Ouch.
 
i liked watching Tully and Drew on the show, i like their characters, good or crazy, and that won't change. they need characters like this again on BB14

No, [MENTION=34034]LoveBB[/MENTION], Drew risked his chances. He's a man not a boy and it was his call, just as it was Tully's regarding Tahlia. And whatever I thought of their relationship in the house, I don't believe for a second it was calculated.
Sorry, I hate when we blame other people for the decisions that are made. And I hate that we portray some housemates as victims (Jade, Drew, even Tim) and others as manipulative perpetrators. It denies the 'victims' individuality and ownership of their behaviour. I like Drew too much to think of him as a pathetic sap.

I suppose I was referring more to her posts of the fashion shots on Instagram the day after the article was released, not so much the shots taken of her that were released in the article itself. I don't have an issue with her doing the article and I also sense that it may not necessarily have been intended by her to be an article focusing on their breakup, rather one about her experience in general - including the story about her mother. However once the topic of Drew was raised, it was always going to be the story headline.
 
[MENTION=34001]camerashy[/MENTION], I clearly fail at reading hashtags, I thought you said you can't lick your user pic ... you can, you know

Jazz looks awesome, but I don't think I'd consider her 'curvy' or that she should be in any way insecure about her body. I wonder what the shots will be used for or if it's to build a portfolio. Her hair is amazing.


Regards Drew, I think he and his friends tend to make pop culture references (games, films, music) and quote things a lot. The quotes aren't necessarily a reflection of his own feelings or where he is emotionally (almost directly opposed to how Tully seems to use quotes). I think Drew would have a great group of mates, and they will be helping him through if he's worried/upset about things.

Tully on the other hand ... not having seen her in action in the house (the shows I did watch were from her eviction onward), I can't comment on that aspect of things. What I do find disappointing (can I be disappointed in someone I don't know?) is how closely her and Drew's relationship status was kept, not for the fact they wanted some privacy or felt they didn't owe their fans anything, both of which would have been completely understandable, but that everything was kept completely quiet because of a stupid magazine deal. To me it just feels like a complete sell-out, but maybe that's all it ever was (if I choose to believe the cynics).

To me that is intensely calculating and whilst I hope Drew was across it and the agreement to do the article was mutual, I would also feel uneasy that the embargo on SM was (enforced by Tully?) simply because of a forthcoming magazine article. The 'Ask Tully' comment makes more sense now really. Sure, they don't owe us anything and indeed, the relationship would need time away from the public eye to become at all normalised, but ... I don't know, what a mess.

I can't help but feel that if the split was mutual, the timing of Drew's visit to Sydney (maybe trying to throw a last minute lifeline to the relationship) is awkward. I feel sad for them really, I don't know if Tully really did risk everything (I think she did to an extent), but I think it's also important to remember that relationships need to be worked on, and that includes conflict resolution. It's one thing to fight, but another to understand why you personally have a desire for conflict, drama and heightened sense of emotions. I hope Tully stays single for some time, I really think she needs to make some peace with herself and her situation (of course, I say that like I know her, but from the outside, I do relate to some of what she is doing and hope she finds some calm in amongst it all).


If they were both on board with the magazine article, I hope they had a really good grungy hotel hook up despite it.

They contributed a lot to making the show interesting. The producers must have been over the moon when their romance surfaced - they couldn't have scripted a better story line. Love it or hate it, their relationship boosted ratings.

I hope the characters are interesting again this year as well - don't think we'll top their relationship though.
