Melbourne’s new A-list: The difficult celebrities booted off the list

These famous faces may once have been a PR list’s must-have names, but somehow they’ve found themselves a bit on the nose.

These celebrities used to make every PR’s guestlist...

Once a must on a PR’s red carpet list for major events, some celebs have found themselves on the nose in recent times.

Brooke Blurton.

BROOKE BLURTON

Known for being a little touchy at the best of times, the first openly bisexual Bachelorette star doesn’t have a chip on her shoulder about her time on the reality show, it’s a forest.

Wayne Carey SAS: Australia 2022

WAYNE CAREY

An ill-advised stint on Seven’s SAS Australia reality series last year saw Carey demoted from Friday night’s prime time footy coverage. Why Seven thought rehashing his past life was a good idea is anyone’s guess. The gloss had long worn off the former North Melbourne full forward with a list of misdemeanours too long and vile to regurgitate.

Anjali Rao.

ANJALI RAO

Making waves as the new Real Housewives of Melbourne star was really a contrived ripple, but Rao rubbed practically all of her castmates up the wrong way only to whinge, whine and moan about her treatment on the show. Too hard basket (case).

Vince Colosimo.

VINCE COLOSIMO

While it pains us to write such things, the actor continues to court trouble, namely in the court of law. Hopefully a fresh stint on Wog Boys 3 just might resurrect the career of the formerly much loved actor for what must be the millionth time.

Geoff Bainbridge.

GEOFF BAINBRIDGE

The Grill’d founder and Lark Distilling chief abruptly left for overseas after a video of him smoking an ice pipe at his Middle Park home went viral.

Everyone from Married At First Sight is off the list.

MAFS

Any Married At First Sight castmate former or current. Period. Ever. Do not watch this space.

Nadia Bartel.

NADIA BARTEL

We all know Bartel had a lot on her plate last year. The influencer is clearly making pains to keep her powder dry after being filmed hoovering up a white substance at a lockdown gathering last year.

LIZ CAMBAGE

A former sporting golden girl, the polarising basketball star found herself on the outs and off the list after a controversial alleged altercation with the Nigerian women’s team in Tokyo that saw her part ways with the Australian Opals.

HAYDEN BURBANK AND MARK BABBAGE

While financier Babbage has crept back into oblivion, Burbank would sure like to make a comeback. The Chapel St nightclub owner turned AFL border breacher threw a Great Gatsby themed 50th birthday, perhaps not quite reading the room.

GEORGIA LOVE

The love was all but lost when the former Bachelorette star took her Seven newsroom to task for their grammar with a group email. A racist post about a cat in a Chinese restaurant was the tipping point and Love found herself backbenched and losing lucrative contracts with the likes of Chadstone shopping centre.
