Married At First Sight’s Martha Kalifatidis says she is not a plastic fantastic, fame hungry TV bride.
Sick of being hit on by bums who don’t appreciate her $400 perfume and spending Sunday’s “seedy and hungover” after spending Saturday nights on the town dreamboat hunting, the Kim Kardashian look-a-like said she was on the show for love.

“There is so much more to me than Botox and fillers and a boob job,” Kalifatidis said.
“I am unfazed by other people’s bulls--t”.
The 30-year-old, Melbourne-born make-up artist said she had no idea why she had been single for the past six years.
“I work all week to make money to spend it all on my outfits, my hair, my make-up, on my laser, on doing all these things to look good and then you get dressed up, douse yourself in your $400 fragrance and you go out and you just attract nothing, bums,” she said.
“I am controlling and loud, I like to get what I want and I am assertive. I need a man that can top that.
“I would go out on Sunday morning seedy and hung over and see these cute couples together feeling fresh because they had not been out on Saturday night looking for the man of their dreams and I thought: ‘this life is not for you anymore’, so I took the plunge and said yes to the show.”
She said she was flattered by the Kardashian comparison.
“They could say worse things than compare me to Kim Kardashian, one of the hottest women in the world,” she said.
“The Kardashians just became hot and made it on trend and I thank them for that because otherwise I would have still been trying to look like Mischa Barton in the OC days.”
Married At First Sight kicks off tomorrow night at 7.30pm on Channel 9.
