S4: Why is no one talking about Angie?
Yes, yes Najuma's a goddess and Thabi's adorable...
but why is no one talking about Angie?
Sure, she's got a bit of a dead-pan delivery—being a paramedic has probably given her nerves of steel—but, so far, Angie has been supportive of MC in subtle ways.
IMO, she's instant Villa BFF material. From the moment they meet, Angie low-key supports MC when Lexi is being pushy. Throughout the introductory chat, Angie indirectly gives Lexi little prompts to back off and contradicts her whens he's being disingenuous.
Angie seems clued in to the current dynamics and different personalities in the house (e.g. she knows Lexi can't keep a secret), and tries to get along with everyone while staying detached from aspects she feels are undesirable.
Angie's got a lot of good qualities. She's...
- Hospitable. Angie is first one to invite MC over to the kitchen for drinks after the Heart-rate Challenge.
- Laid back. There's no hint of her being threatened by Bombshell MC's arrival and it looks like there's a genuine curiosity in getting to know MC.
- Supportive. Angie encourages James to get to know MC without crowding him... and tries not to make him feel self-conscious about it.
- Playful and personable. At the Naughty Yoga session, Angie affectionately teases Hazeem and pokes lighthearted fun at his antics without malice. She'll also open up a bit if MC asks the right questions.
Thus far, Anjana seems like a really great person. Hopefully, she continues to remain an ally during the season.
So, can Angie get some love, Islanders?
