Christina Applegate voices her concerns about hygiene and etiquette on the popular reality show.
Christina Applegate, known for her candid remarks, recently took to social media to express her thoughts on Peacock’s hit show, Love Island. While professing her love for the series, the Emmy-winning actress didn’t hold back in addressing what she perceives as hygiene and etiquette issues among contestants.
In a series of posts, Applegate called out what she described as “gross” hygiene practices, particularly focusing on the use of white deodorant visible under the armpits during the heat. “White deodorant on the armpits in the heat is gross,” she emphasized. “Now you all are very attractive people, please use clear deodorant!!! The white puss looking shit in the folds is not bueno. This is just me helping you be the best version of you. Haha.”
Applegate’s comments sparked a wave of reactions online, with fans and viewers chiming in on the importance of personal grooming in the public eye. Her humorous yet straightforward approach resonated with many, highlighting an often-overlooked aspect of reality television: personal hygiene.
Beyond hygiene, Applegate also raised concerns about certain noises and behaviors she finds distracting on the show. “Can you pls stop making weird sounds with your water bottles? Like holding straw in mouth and chewing it and not sipping,” she tweeted. “Or girls with long nails making clicky clackety sounds on ha.”
Love Island USA, currently airing its sixth season hosted by Ariana Madix, has garnered attention not only for its romantic entanglements but also for the candid critiques it receives from celebrities like Applegate. Madix herself recently spoke about relationship advice she would give to Islanders, emphasizing the importance of genuine connection and communication amidst the fast-paced environment of the show.
Applegate’s posts serve as a reminder that even in the world of reality television, where drama and romance take center stage, basic etiquette and personal grooming can make a significant impression. As fans continue to follow Love Island’s latest season, Applegate’s words may encourage contestants and producers alike to consider the finer details that contribute to a polished on-screen presence.
