How has life been since you left the House?
“Insane. I’ve had loads of appearances. I have had a couple of days back at work but I haven’t been able to go full-time because I’ve been flying all over the country. Things haven’t gone back to normal just yet.” 

How has Dubbo reacted to your return?
“Good! Heaps good! My mates at work are like ‘eh, she’s back!’ There’s new kids who have started in the time I’ve been away and they look at you funny. They do like double takes to make sure it’s you. They’re the funniest. It’s weird. I didn’t save the world and now everyone knows who I am!  I mean, I was a nobody two months ago!

Has your new-found fame surprised you?
“Of course it has! They ask me for photos and signatures. I don’t know how the stars do it!”

What is the most common reaction?
“I think everyone gets the same line, ‘how was it?’ I get asked heaps about my NYC trip … I get asked lots about Rory too. I don’t why. They don’t ask about Nathan, it’s all about Rory. It’s weird! Loads of questions about Rory!”

And what about Nathan …
“I’ve hung out with him. I saw him in Adelaide at an appearance and stayed around for a couple of days so he could show me the sights.”

So is there any romance?
“No! No! No romance at all! Nothin’ to tell you there!”

You seemed pretty angry when you left the House. Do you still feel as though the Housemates dogged you?
“That was the heat of the moment! Only two people Nominated me and it was only randomly that I fell in. It was hard to hear sitting on the Lounge and then being told that you’re up with the other three. The boys were saying, ‘Don’t worry, look who’s up with you,’ but I was just like ‘Don’t say it. I don’t know why I’m up, I don’t know that one of you has a problem.’ I didn’t have a week to prepare and so you keep thinking ‘you’re safe, you’re safe.’ It’s always better to prepare yourself for the worst so I don’t know, you don’t get more distraught.”

What event do you wish you could have been in the House for?
“My birthday!”

The Housemates cooked you a cake in honour of your Birthday.
“I know! I heard! Someone told me! That was awesome!”

And do you realise you share the same date as Pamela Anderson’s Birthday?
“Nathan texted me that! I’m not sure if we would’ve gotten along. It would’ve been interesting considering I’m an Abs worker and she’s a vegetarian … I would’ve said nothing to her. 95% of Australians eat meat.”

Which Housemate or Housemates are your favourite?
“All of my favourite ones have been Evicted! All my mates were Evicted which is kinda good because it doesn’t mean I have to wait for so long to catch up with them.”

Which Eviction were you shocked by most?
“Nobbi! Nobbi’s a gun!”

Who do you think will win?
“Terri. Depends. I hope Terri wins. This is going to sound nasty. I don’t think any of the other’s personalities deserve the 250 grand … She’s come in her at age, she’ll be Evicted, we’ve got a lifetime to go on and earn money. I hope she wins.”

And your next stop is New York, are you excited?
“Of course! We’re stoked!”

Are you looking forward to catching up with Carson?
“Yeah! He’s a gem!”
