The Source: Broody Cocaine Cassie eyeing different type of bump

A five-year stay in a Colombian jail cell inspired drug trafficker Cocaine Cassie to launch a new business venture — but now she’s revealed expansion plans are in the works.

Putting the squeeze on Victoria’s movers, shakers and headline makers.

The makeover of Cocaine Cassie from drug-running mule to wannabe fitness icon continues with the release of her “hour glass body challenge”, a concept inspired by an unplanned five-year stay in Colombia.

Cassie Sainsbury was busted with 5.8kg of cocaine in 2017, spent three years in jail, and apparently observed the figures of the local ladies.

She has since returned to Australia, with wife Tatiana, to express baby plans amid new and exciting money-making ventures.

Like all instantly recognisable self-respecting convicted female drug mules who could use a few bucks, Sainsbury will appear in an upcoming SAS Australia series.

And for only $39.95, according to a press release from her agent Max Markson, you can tackle her 8-week Hourglass Body Challenge.

“While in Colombia I would look at all the women there and they would have beautiful bodies with the whole curvy figure and I thought, I want that, so I started a process of elimination about how to build certain muscles to give that illusion of having that Latin body shape,” she said.

Personal training sessions are available for $65 — alas, only in Adelaide.

Airline grounds mushroom rumours

Mushrooms grow in the dark, as do mushroom myths.

Deliciously distasteful gags have sprung since the three dreadful deaths in Leongatha after a beef Wellington lunch in late July.

Depending on who you believe, mushroom sales have either increased a lot, or decreased a lot, since the Gippsland tragedy.

Endeavour points must be offered to the Australian Mushroom Growers Association, which will go ahead with its festival of “fun and fungi” at Queen Victoria Market in October.

And points, too, for candour. As th AMGA’s Kura Antonello has said: “Let’s be honest, an everyday person is going to see mushroom burgers now and say ‘oh my gosh’.”

The latest rumour, amid the mushroom clouds of confusion, concerns an airline, which was said to have banished mushrooms from its in-flight menus.

Not so, says the airline, which didn’t much want to be associated with mushroom questions.
