  • Channel [V] Get Gorgeous 5 the final episode of this season at 7:30pm on Friday, 25 July 2008

    Submitted by ITV Production on Jul 24

    MUMBAI: After over a week of bad-mouthing and back-biting each other on television, the ‘gorgeous‘ girls seem to have turned over a new leaf. Viewers of the bitchiest, sexiest and nastiest reality show on television may be in for one helluva surprise. The girls, after much bitterness and rancour towards each other, are apparently apologetic and even nice to one another ? an unheard of occurrence on the show.

    In what would mark a truly revolutionary moment in Get Gorgeous 5 history, the three finalists, Gwen, Iris and Salome will appear minus their armour, making a bid to be genuinely gracious to each other. Gwen, who had gone to the extent of calling Salome a man in a previous episode, is believed to have broken down in teary-eyed remorse.

    So what brings about this change of heart? Genuine regret, considering it is the last episode of the season and therefore the right time to bury the proverbial hatchet? Or is it infact the legacy of the show, where the girls learn the subtle, and not-so-subtle, tricks of the trade - the new rules of engagement? Exactly how ‘real‘ is this reality?

    To find out the answers to these questions and to see who walks away with the coveted title of Get Gorgeous 2008 , tune in to Channel [V] Get Gorgeous 5 for the final episode of this season at 7:30pm, Friday, 25 July 2008.
