****WHAT *THEY* SAY ABOUT HER****
Marco Sabba:"My angel - my Lipgloss Bitch forever!" Michelle Bass:"Nadia is fabulous in every way possible, and that's the word to describe Nadia - fabulous!" Shell Jubin:" She taught me about mascara and high heels!" Daniel Bryan:"It's wonderful, absolutely wonderful that's she's become the nation's sweetheart. I think it'll make her stronger and more confident, and help her believe in herself more, which is all good. But I think she’s still got her feet on the ground. Underneath it all, she’s still that girl from Madeira." Stuart Wilson:"I think Nadia is great. The only word to describe her is wild. For the middle part of the time in the House I assumed she was a woman. It's just Nadia you know, it's not really anything." Jason Cowan:"I've said that of all the finalists I would have preferred it if Nadia won, even if I never won. She always wore her heart on her sleeve and she never hid her emotions." Davina McCall: "I love her! I think she is pretty tough and she says how she feels and she wears her heart on her sleeve which, as a viewer I always find quite appealing. I love her emotional side." Jenny Peterson {Nadia's friend}: "When I met Nadia I thought she looked different because she had a bit of a five o' clock shadow and her voice was deeper, but as we got to know eachother I began to think of her as a gorgeous, stylish woman." Sarah Harding:"I want Nadia to win - I love her. She's a real girl, doing the housework in hot pants and heels, and she has a wicked laugh." Cat Deely:"I want Nadia to win because she's fun and so natural." Jamie & Jools Oliver:"We want Nadia to win - she's beautiful." Brian Dowling:"I want Nadia to win. I had a T-shirt made up specially - it says "Nadia to win" Caller on BBLB:"She's amazing, she's like a Portuguese Mae West!" Jane Johnson {editor of Closer magazine}: "We've taken her to our hearts because she isn't afraid to show her insecurities. Despite her thick mascara and lipgloss, she's refreshingly real. AND she wears heels to do the housework - that makes her our kind of woman!"
****THE MARCO POEM****
Embraces you've given me
''Darling'' you've said to me
Entertainment you've provided me
Sex you didn't.
Freddy Kruger you are
Gollum you aspire to be
Eternal blood you have
But certainly not inside me.
I'm not bothered though!
****FROM NADiA 2 HER FANZ:****
"Thank you everyone for watching me and laughing and crying with me - I appreciate everything.
We need more happiness in this world so thank you everyone!"
