Cape Town-born model and reality TV star Camille “Millie” Terblanche – who infamously called herself the “prettiest girl in Guyana” – has gone viral for another social media faux pas. And this time, it took place at Cannes, the home of the French International Film Festival.
Last year, the Love Island SAcontestant courted controversy on her TikTok account called “Guyana Living.” In 2021, Millie made headlines after making a “rape joke” on the dating show.
MILLIE TERBLANCHE’S CANNES APPEARANCE GOES VIRAL
Last weekend, Millie Terblanche turned heads on the Cannes red carpet, her first time at the film festival.
In a video that has gone viral on social media, the reality TV star was asked how she landed an invite to the exclusive event.
She nonchalantly said, “I don’t do anything. Luckily, I’m from a rich family, so I get to be a stay-at-home daughter and just spend daddy’s money!”
She continued: “I’m just here for the vibe, to walk the red carpet and get some pics”.
When asked what her advice is for being successful and wealthy, Millie brazenly said: “Basically, just have rich parents”.
Millie Terblanche’s cringe comments didn’t go unnoticed, particularly amongst South Africans.
@michaelgavran: “World class doos”
@jettbradshaw_: “She makes me sick”
@andreolivierdre: “She’s admitting she lives off daddy’s money and isn’t good at anything”.
@branden_husselman: “This girl is a good example of you can have all the money in the world and still be hated by so many people because you’re a terrible person”.
Last year, Millie Terblanche had South Africans hanging their heads in shame over her comments on her travel blog, Living in Guyana. In it, the Cape Town beauty documented her travels to the South American country.
In a video that blew up on Tiktok, she said: “My favourite thing about Guyana is that I’m the prettiest girl here. I’m not even tooting my horn when I say that. It is a literal fact”.
The blonde went on to claim that the country has “oil money” and encouraged others to make use of its natural resources. She also casually mentioned that the country was the location of the Jonestown massacre – a horror suicide pact conducted by cult leader Jim Jones – that took place in 1978.
However, whether intentionally or jokingly, Millie Terblanche’s comments about her appearance in comparison to other Guyanese women enraged social media users.
Many accused her of being conceited and arrogant and displaying little knowledge about the country she had temporarily called home.
