Cucumber? I don't mind
cucumber, but it has to be amongst something
else. Like, you won't catch me dipping cucumber
into hummus. Oh, okay, that would be feral for you you that would be a bit too far in my opinion okay so it's
on the new year's vibe yeah you want to so i was looking and then i was like all you have to do i
was chatting to my mom being like oh i just want to do so much and she was like just do one little
thing lovely and then that affects big change yes it does so i'm gonna i'm gonna roll it right back

Come on, what are we doing?
Okay, are you ready?
I'm ready.
Let's debrief. Thank you. just spat on them we are talking all things
hot girl summer so weather but what what about what about what i've been running today
the weather the weather's been getting hotter i've've seen the Aperol's being poured. Katie's got burn.
I've been burned.
I've had my first PIMS.
So as soon as I get burned and you have your first PIMS,
summertime.
We've been in the hot tub.
We're in summertime.
So it's time for Hot Girl Summer.
It's time.
That's all this is.
So let's start by defining the term Hot Girl Summer.
Because I feel like everyone's like, oh yeah, no guys guys this is what it is okay okay tell me it describes a carefree and confident attitude embraced by women
encouraging them to have fun be self-assured and prioritize their own happiness during the
summer season love it which i love would you say you've had a hot girl summer okay so i reflect on this yeah i feel now you can laugh
at this but i feel i've every summer's a hot girl summer i felt i'm like look i'm not calling
myself hot girl but i'm saying every summer it comes out oh well yeah there's a girl about yeah
with the definition of a carefree confident attitude embraced by women
yeah love womanhood i'm a yes lover for the girls encouraging encouraging them to have fun
self-assured and prioritize their own happiness i'm telling you i love a hot girl summer i feel
like i have the last years i think hot girl summer the whole like theory of it yes is related to being single yes so i think it's quite interesting to me people are i think i've got a hot girl summer the whole like theory of it yes is related to being single yes so i think it's
quite interesting to me people are i think i've got a hot girl summer and i'm gonna really shit
yeah yeah i also feel and i reflect that when i was single i had a lot of hot girl summers i'm
gonna shout out here to chess my very close friend yeah we had so many hot girl summers in Portugal getting up to the most awful stuff together
having the best time getting properly sunburned yeah always coming back with awful sunburned
stories of who did you get with oh yeah all that kind of stuff but giant hickeys that's a little
inside joke there but all that kind of stuff and I always always think, oh, that was living young, well and free. Yeah.
We just had so much fun.
We went for quite a few years
and we just had the best time.
The whole experience
was based around tanning,
chatting shit,
having drinks,
gossiping,
and clubbing.
And I remember then just feeling so,
and it's that kind of freedom of,
you know, you get to do your own thing
while you're on holiday.
It was just so much fun.
So I always think about
that was definitely a hot girl summer era
when I was single.
But now I'm in a relationship,
I'm thinking,
so I've got a trip planned for my birthday this year.
Obviously you're coming.
And it's the eighth of it
and it's four girls and four boys. And I feel like, I'm'm not being funny that's kind of hot girl summer i'm like there's nothing
more exciting to me than being with my girls like having a lovely cold drink maybe g and t
pims just be sat outside you know near the beach we're going to devon you know it was just gonna
be so good and i'm so excited to you know be hot girl just going to be so good. And I'm so excited to, you know, be hot girls somewhere together,
getting the best photo,
getting the girl photo,
getting the sexy photo.
You know,
that's a part of hot girls.
I mean,
you have to prioritize getting the booty or the boobie photo,
depending on what your assets are.
Get the blue cheekies out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Cause most people will get your bum out.
If you've got a fantastic bum,
but if you've got boobs,
you show them off the day.
Show it all off.
So I feel that's my experience.
I feel like I always feel so hot girl summer,
having so much fun when I'm with my girl group.
Yes.
And I'm doing that this year for my birthday,
so I'm like, bring it on, bitches.
Bring it on.
How about you?
Do you think you've had a hot girl summer?
Hot girl summer.
Flushed. Flushed woman summer. burnt girl summer burnt flushed
flushed
woman summer
I've never been
on like
I went on a
girls trip
yeah
once
and we
were very tame
like we didn't go out
clubbing
it was like very like
wholesome
girl trip
okay
didn't go out
didn't get with any guys
like just
sussing the girlies
and I
I wouldn't actually say
like we've been
we've done trips as
a group that have been feral yeah but that's not been in the summertime oh okay because i would say
barcelona i'd be like hot girl summer that was fun love that really fun i would say i have the
attitude of hot girl summer do i have the conviction no so your mindset's like i'd love a
hot girl summer then you're like i like, want to slag it up.
Someone says hello, I'm like, stay back.
But do you know who will help slag it up for you?
Oh, yeah.
She'll help.
She'll be great.
She'll be great.
She'll be on it.
It'll be brilliant.
She'll be like, come on!
Peer pressure.
It works, guys.
It works.
Don't let the side down.
No, you can't.
No, no, no.
That would be foolish.
But picture in the best years of your life.
Exactly.
You're in your 20s.
You've got to embrace it.
You've got to embrace it.
And I'm saying,
we all have to skinny dip when we're in Devon.
We all have to.
Come on, this is hot girl summer, guys.
It's hot girl summer.
Hot girl summer.
It's time.
We need to get our tits out
and just enjoy the sun.
Yeah.
I'm so excited.
Hundy pee.
Hundy pees.
So we asked a debrief
on how to have the best hot girl summer yeah so a few of girls wrote in yeah
i shouldn't say girls i'm not sure if you know whoever you are some people wrote in and someone
said um embrace your body girls i hate all this summer body ready bullshit everybody is beautiful
and if you treat it kindly with the right food and exercise then it doesn't matter what number I hate all this summer body ready bullshit. Everybody is beautiful.
And if you treat it kindly with the right food and exercise,
then it doesn't matter what number it says on your trousers.
All girls are ready to show off what their mama gave them.
How great is that?
I love that.
Do you know what?
When she said that hot girl summer,
I thought, yes,
because I always feel summer body ready is so like demoralizing to what you already have.
100%. I'm like, why are you already slagging off what you've got?
Yeah.
You know, rather than like work with what you've got and show what you've got and, you know, enjoy what you've got.
So I love how she was just like, embrace your bodies.
Hot girl summer.
Let's love our bodies, girls.
I love that.
I really like that.
I think if you feel more confident about your body, then you're going to have a better summer.
Exactly.
Yes.
100%.
So one that made me laugh was wear SPF.
Yeah.
And I'll tell you that for free.
Yes.
Wear SPF, guys.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not only to stay youthful forever,
face and neck and hands. Where is the age first peach, face and neck and hands.
Where is the age first, Peach?
Face, neck and hands.
Hands.
I say this all the time to the boys.
You've got to put SPF.
I'm like, I will know your age if you've got a wrinkly gullet.
I'm like...
I'll take one look at that gullet.
I'll know your age.
I'm like, you've got to love yourself.
Let me tell you a quick story, all right,
to keep in context of how good SPF is. mother yes grew up in australia so she was you know in that hot
summer heat and well all year round it was always hot now she recently went to get her skin checked
because they're getting i'm boring you again i'm sorry i'm I already do it. She went to go get her skin checked,
as you do, you know,
getting your moles checked,
all of that.
They said,
your skin's fantastic.
What have you been doing?
She says,
SPF all my life.
She says,
they've got nothing.
She says,
you've smashed it.
And she wins.
She wins.
I'm telling you,
ladies,
gentlemen,
SPF.
SPF.
And you'll feel like that bitch as well.
You will feel like Hot Girl Summer vibes because you're like, oh, me? Oh, who me? Just got my SPF. SPF. And you'll feel like that bitch as well. You will feel like hot girl summer vibes because you're like, oh, me?
Oh, who, me?
Just got my SPF on.
Also, have you seen the SPF contour?
I hate to divert.
Oh, when people put a certain bit and it will tan.
Have you ever done this?
Well, no.
It'll be wrecked.
It will go the opposite way in my favour.
Okay.
Yeah, people do like SPF tan.
So they'll do like in certain areas
so they get a slight contour like on their nose.
Clever.
God, people are so clever.
Clever.
Okay, someone else said,
prep your wardrobe.
I always find I've hidden my summer clothes away
and when it comes to it,
I buy loads of stuff that I probs didn't need.
Have a deep dive through your wardrobe of summer outfits and plan accordingly my clothes away and when it comes to it i buy loads of stuff that i probably didn't need have
a deep dive through your wardrobe of summer outfits and plan accordingly so that you look
hot to trot without much effort because you have an idea of different outfits you can wear
p.s i make notes which outfits i really like and write them down oh my god yes this is a bit
amazing yeah this is let me tell you let me tell. In my notes, I have photos of myself in certain outfits.
Oh my God, yeah.
And next to them, I have what top, what trousers, what shoes, what jacket,
what accessories would go with this.
Now when I'm thinking, what do I wear today?
Boom.

Slightly embarrassing.

I was like,
oh,
if there is ever a time
to spend time with your
girls it's now organize something to meet up with your closest girlfriends doesn't have to be abroad

Believe you are the hot girl that you are.
Yeah.
Don't start comparing yourself to others.
No.
Again,
the whole body thing.
Don't.
Yeah,

Who cares what she's wearing?
Who cares what her body fits in
and what your body doesn't fit in?
Yeah.
Doesn't matter.
You're a different person.
Yes.
Oh my God.
I actually saw a TikTok video recently
of like this woman at a gym.
Yeah. And she kind of played like like everyone but she watched a woman doing weights and then like in her head was like oh my god like
she's doing the weights the weights it was so scary i wish i could never do that and then the
woman doing the weights was looking at her being like oh my god i wish i could wear shorts the gym
had your um shorts are so cute and it's, everyone has their hang-ups. Their thing.
Yeah.
Everyone has their own thing.
Yeah, I see what you mean.
Yeah, I just thought it was really interesting.
Yeah, so don't lose...
Don't compare yourself.
No, don't compare yourself.
Have that mindset of, I've got this and I'm going to get it.
Exactly.
So, we asked people from the debrief to write in any fun experiences they've had during Hot Girl Summer.
And here is what they wrote.
Yes.
Oh, some people are hilarious.
OMG, girls.
Hilarious story.
I love this question.
The year of 2018.
Oh.
Cast your mind back.
Oh.
I had just graduated uni from Cambridge.
Cast your mind back.
Oh.
I had just graduated uni from Cambridge.
And after working my arse off and having a lack of social life and friends,
I was determined to have the greatest hot girl summer of my frigging life. Fair.
Fair.
My frigging life.
No friends.
Love her.
I ended up going absolutely wild.
One night, I booked to go to an Airbnb in Portugal with my friend.
What happens in Portugal?
Yeah.
Where are we? Portugal and friend.
I was renting a room in a couple's house.
Oh, I've done that before.
One night I got back to the Airbnb after a heavy night out,
brought two guys back with me.
Oh my God.
And went upstairs.
Oh!
We started fooling around and getting steamy
when all of a sudden we hear this huge snore
and realise we are in the landlord's bed having a threesome.
No!
Needless to say, he kicked us out
and I got a bad review on Airbnb.
Oh!
Can you imagine?
Oh, my God!
Can you imagine? Oh, God. Can you imagine?
Oh my God, I think I'd cry.
They must have been absolutely trollied
to have not noticed him and just started.
And he's snoring.
Oh my God, and the shock.
Can you imagine him waking up?
He wakes up and sees three semi-naked people.
He'd either be like, it's my lucky day,
or he'd be like, I'm going to do an alpege.
Oh, boring. Yes, yes yes it's an empathy thing it's an empathy it's an empathy thing hi girls have to admit i'm a hot girl summer failure first week into the butte weather i
bagged myself an apparel and a boyfriend however it was a firm cheerleader for my friends wanting to slag it up.
Love it.
Yes.
See, that's me.
Cough yourself up.
That's me.
Cough yourself to the man
and what are you going to do?
Cheerlead.
Cheerlead.
I'm the biggest cheerleader for my friends.
If you want to slag it up,
I'll be your fan.
Yeah.
If you want to slag it up,
go get a tan.
Yes.
Slag it up. There's nothing more fun. There's nothing more fun. No, truly. Than knowing. Go get a tan. Yes. Slug it up.
There's nothing more fun.
There's nothing more fun.
No, truly.
Than knowing you'll get a cuddle,
but try to get your friends a cuddle as well.
Yes.
High risk kind of reward.
Exactly.
Thank you.
So I love that.
One girl said,
last year in hot girl summer,
I lost my virginity.
I was 19.
I was determined to have a good time. Yeah. And let the shackles of the pressure of lost my virginity. I was 19 and was determined to have a good time
and let the shackles of the pressure of losing my virginity be gone.
Tell them.
Love how she's writing.
Yeah.
I was on holiday with my girls at one of my friend's family houses in Cornwall.
I met this guy at one of the festivals that I was going to there.
He invited us all back to his house
as we had a group of friends that could come as well.
Oh, brilliant.
For a little party.
Oh, less stressful then.
Now, let me tell you.
His parents had a 10-bedroom mansion
on the beachfront with a yacht.
Fuck off, Jackpot!
Later that night, I lost my virginity on a yacht
while drinking Moet in Cornwall.
I would say a job well done.
You win.
You win.
Can you imagine being like, gotta let this flower go.
Gotta let the flower go.
And all of a sudden, the flower doesn't just land in the puddle.
You land in fucking Buckingham Palace.
Buckingham Palace.
You win.
That's such a great virginity story.
And he's like,
do you want to come for a party?
You go back to the 10 bedroom mansion house.
And she's like,
how about a yacht?
Then she's like,
yeah, get on the yacht.
Boom.
Comfy bed.
Memory friend mattress.
Shagged.
Then the moe pops.
Pops.
Pop cherry.
Pop cherry.
Pop moe.
Yes.
Fantastic.
Is it slightly different for your virginity, Peach? Oh, yes. Fantastic. Is it slightly different
from your virginity, Peach?
Well, yes.
Is it?
I thought you were on a yacht.
Top of the Empire State Building.
You know it.
I was in Buckingham Palace.
Only class for beach.
Mine was a super yacht.
Oh, you know it.
Yeah, it was.
It was bigger.
It's that.
Oh, no, mine was even bigger.
No, no, no, mine was bigger.
Oh, a yacht. Oh, a boat. Oh, is that it? Mine was a mega yacht. I was on a super where. Yeah, it was. It was bigger. It's that. Oh, no, mine was even bigger. No, no, no, mine was bigger. Oh, a yacht.
Oh, a boat.
Oh, is that it?
Mine was a mega yacht.
I was on a super yacht.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's got to happen.
Captain Lee was there.
Fantastic.
I love it.
Okay, so now I am a retired hot summer girly.
I can now say that I cannot go back to a certain club in London
as I kissed two best friends,
which caused a huge fight on the dance floor
and I got escorted out.
Chaos! Chaos! Chaos!
You know when you get banned from a club?
This is what I always think.
Like getting banned.
The only club you're banned from is that one in Liverpool.
I don't think I've been banned.
You were banned, my love.
They were like, she can't ever come back.
Huh?
Yeah. Yeah. No. And you were banned my love they were like she can't ever come back yeah yeah no and you were just like no they don't know what they're saying i was like hey kid let's debrief tomorrow
so right now right now you're in trouble yeah oh that's a shame so you've only been bad for one i
don't even know i don't remember that but you don't remember but. But you don't remember, so it doesn't count. But this is what I thought. When people are like, you're banned, I'm like, how do you know?
Do they mark it?
Yeah.
Do you still have my ID that you scanned?
And you say I'm banned?
And you're like, red cross.
Or are you just like, off visuals?
Because I'm like, you won't remember this.
Because maybe it's more for like regulars of that.
Like, for example, like the club near us, if they banned me,
they'd probably remember like if I went up.
Yeah.
They'd be like, you're banned.
So they might not remember you in Liverpool.
No.
Fingers crossed.
Because you're like...
Fingers crossed, yeah.
Imagine though,
she won't be humiliating if you did.
And we went.
And you gave them your ID and they're like,
Red Cross.
You can't remember.
I'll be like...
Do you remember last time?
I'll be like, oh no.
25th of Feb last year? I think not. Oh, Jesus. Oh, Red Cross. You're like, you can't be lying. Do you remember last time? I'd be like, oh, no. 25th of Feb last year.
I think not.
Oh, Jesus.
Oh, so funny.
Jesus.
So one girl said,
hot girl summer I think I took slightly too far.
Ended up having a fuck it mindset
and telling myself to never say no to anything.
So I ended up getting both nipples pierced.
Oh.
Having sex with one of my parents' friends.
Getting a tattoo on my lower back that says cheeky.
Oh.
And dyeing my hair blue.
Out of all this, the hair was the biggest mistake.
Girls, I was a natural brunette.
Love it.
Oh my God.
And she would have had to bleach it to go blue.
Yeah.
Fuck.
Fuck.
Let's not skip over this.
Parents' best friend.
Yeah, let's not skip over the best friends.
Let's not skip over.
She did a Richard.
She did a Monica with a Richard.
She did.
She experienced the elder man. Now, let me tell you.
Let me tell you.
Can you imagine your dad?
Oh, my God.
You shagging it up with one of your dad's friends.
Imagine your dad's face.
What would they say?
Oh, my God.
I think he'd be mortified. What would you do? What would you say? Literally, what, I think you'd be mortified.
What would you do?
What would you say?
I literally, what do you say to that?
I couldn't, I couldn't.
No, no, simply not.
I'd have to hide.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
Imagine your dad being, Ian?
Well, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that Oliver? Yeah. Ian? Yeah. Are you sure? Ian. Ian. You're seeing Ian? Yes. Oh my god. Ian and I are in love
actually. We're seeing each other.
Oh. That's scary.
Absolutely not.
Let's go
on to debrief
dilemmas and this is all things
Hot Girl Summer. Love it.
So, hi girliesies first time emailer
please keep me anonymous of course so basically me and a group of girlfriends want to go on a
girl's holiday to ibiza all wanting to have a fun and feral time oh my god i am so with you i want
to do a girl's trip to ibiza oh my god i'm wifed up but i don't care i want to go people like you
can't go in a relationship. Watch me.
You can. I'm going. I'm getting all
dressed up. I'm getting a nice spray tan
before I go. You, me, the girls,
we've got to go to Ibiza. We've got to go.
We have to. It'll be so much fun.
Because we're not going to go in our 40s.
I mean, we could. We could.
We could. But this
is the time. This is the time to go. It's the
prime time. Yeah, let's discuss it.
So all of us are single and ready to live our best life
at all the beach clubs and we're super excited.
However, as the trip has been approaching,
I can't help but feel super anxious about the upcoming trip
and I'm really worried after all the hype
that I won't actually get with anyone.
I know it sounds super silly,
but we've kind of planned this trip to get with people
and now I'm feeling a really strange pressure to do it
and I'm worried about ruining the trip
or being seen as boring.
Please help.
I hope this doesn't sound too silly.
Thanks, girls.
Aww.
Oh, my heart warms for you, my little duckling.
I don't know how old she is, but she sounds young.
Yeah.
And she sounds like out of exams party season.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, I had a trip booked to go to Zante
and then COVID hit, so I couldn't go.
And that was, as she said, a trip to purely get with people.
Yeah, yeah.
So I'm sure she's like, oh, so she sounds young.
Oh, bless.
Darling, these are your friends. Yeah. Okay okay they won't judge you they're not gonna
judge you and at the end of the day if you want to get involved as well yeah if you want to have fun
and you know live young wild and free yeah yeah then you will to say to yourself in your mindset
i'm gonna have fun i'm gonna meet new people I'm going to see where the night takes me.
Yeah.
You know,
don't feel pressure
that you're boring.
Yes.
Yeah, no.
Because these are your friends.
There's a reason you're on the trip
and they want to spend time with you.
You're still going to have
such a good time
and when guys approach you,
which they will,
it can be even funnier
when they're trying hard
and if you don't want to get with them,
don't get with them.
And then they'll be like,
oh my God,
did you see that guy
that was trying so hard
to get with you? That was hilarious. Exactly then they'll be like oh my god did you see that guy that was trying so hard to get with you that was hilarious exactly like there's
entertainment everywhere on these trips don't only do what you want to do exactly don't do it because
you feel pressured thinking oh no well everyone else has got with someone and i haven't and it's
the second night who cares exactly what time yeah you know you don't lower your standards just to
please other people yes and that's not
going to help your self-confidence and your self-worth so go on the trip with the mindset
of i'm gonna have a great time yes i'm gonna spend time with my friends we're gonna have so
much fun together if i get with someone great if i don't great i'm still going to have fun and as
you said you're going partying you're going to have loads of fun and i'd be for clubs yeah so
most likely in these ib for clubs yeah so most
likely in these ib for clubs are single people who want to yeah with people anyway yeah so we
know for a fact that people are going to approach you yeah whether you want them or not that's
completely you exactly i mean that you're boring no you know you hold the power you hold the power
you you've got this girl you have got this yeah oh that's such like a i
feel it's so relatable yeah i know a bit oh i don't want people to think i'm being frigid or
yes yeah frigid yeah it's always used to school when it was like don't be frigid don't be frigid
oh oh it's awful isn't it don't be frigid. Don't be frigid. It's such a horrible word.
Horrible word.
That feels like such a...
Oh, I know.
Love that.
You've got this.
You've got this.
Take it.
And enjoy yourself.
Enjoy it.
Yeah.
You've got this.
We're proud of you.
Lovely.
Love you, girl.
Ix of the week.
Yeah.
My Ix of the week is... Tell me. Oh, tell me oh wait you have ping pong me oh my god of course you ready lovely my ick of the week is when people don't wear sun cream
i actually know it does it it kind of icks me out because i'm like, do you think you're above the sun? Oh! Do you think you're above the solar system?
That big old thing in the sky?
Yeah.
No.
Yeah.
You're not.
You're not, my friend.
You're not.
Okay?
How about, so you say when people don't rest, sun cream gives you a nick.
How about if people are wearing that Factor 15?
Yeah, they're wearing sun cream. They rest, sun cream gives you an ick. How about if people are wearing that Factor 15? Yeah, they're wearing sun cream.
They're wearing sun cream.
Yeah.
No, I'd be foolish to assume everyone would be on Factor 50 with me.
Like you.
However, I wish they did a bigger Factor.
Well, maybe you put Factor 50 on twice and you're on Factor 100.
Is that how I'd like it if it worked like that?
I don't know if it does work like that.
You can always try.
That would be good for me.
You could always try, couldn't you?
I'd be one of those kids on holiday with the fucking stripes it was always it was always the
case did you get burned when you were a child yeah oh mega oh all the time actually probably
less because my parents are very diligent in applying spf on me i'm less diligent yeah because
i'm i have the toxic trait where i think i'll turn burn every time but
i'm like this time could be different this could be the time i brought i will be bronze if you put
spf sun cream on though will you still get a glow or will you still be red no i just go freckly
or red yeah you were very freckly when he came back from portugal freckles freckles freckles
all right i've got one.
Yeah.
Okay.
Something that aches me out is when people judge what you're drinking.
Like, because it's summer.
That's not a summer drink.
And it's like, oh, sorry.
You've done me there.
Do you know what?
Let me chuck that out.
I'll get a new drink.
I remember this happened to me last year, actually.
And it was in a night out environment.
Yeah.
And as we know on a night out, you always get baby Guinness
because you need a shot.
Yeah.
And the best shot around is baby Guinness.
Now, we're all around.
We're about to go for a baby Guinness shot.
And someone goes, oh, God, that's not a summer drink.
Oh, let me just get my fucking refund then.
Oh, you're right there.
Yeah, sorry, I'm an idiot.
I'm an absolute idiot.
I'm not.
What constitutes a summer drink?
You know what I mean?
Even more irritating is I kind of get them.
Like, some things aren't a summer drink.
But I can have an upper roll at winter.
Oh, no, you're not doing that.
Can't do a Pimms in winter.
No, you're not doing that.
And also, you're not sat in a beer garden having a Guinness.
Surely not.
No, surely not.
So I kind of get what they mean, but I'm like, don't say it.
We're all thinking it, but don't say it.
Okay.
Don't say it.
What am I going to have a shot of?
Yeah.
Except a baby Guinness.
Thank you, Paige.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Goodness.
It does piss me off. Yeah, good.
Let me live my life in a happy way. Exactly.
Exactly.
Questions?
Questions? Questions.
Questions. This week
you are silly and I'm
serious. I'm taking it
serious this week, Katie. Head on.
We're not pissing around, okay? Because sometimes you have a tendency to.
Yeah, I veer off track.
I do.
You're very excited.
I know.
So do you think, okay,
a hot girl summer is more enjoyable being single
or in a relationship?
Remember the fundamentals of hot girl summer.
Remember what you said earlier which was
carefree confident attitude encouraging to have fun be self-assured and prioritize happiness
remember that what do you think my gut instinct tells me that it would be that you're single yeah because you've got more options and it's not just
a night out it's like a night out and i could get a shag i could get with someone this could
who knows where the night may go yeah i mean you people yeah however and that's carefree and that's
confident and that's all embodied yeah however with the right partner you can feel empowered, confident
carefree
and still go home
with a guaranteed shack
and summer romance
summer romance
there's nothing better than a summer romance
sunsets
there's nothing better
it genuinely makes my
a bit
a bit yeah yeah There's nothing better. It genuinely makes my... A bit... You know when you're like...
A bit giddy.
Yeah, yeah.
You have to do it again.
You know when you're just a bit like,
oh, genuinely, I'm like...
I'm like a summer romance.
I'm like, oh, I'm shy.
A bit giddy.
A bit giddy.
Do you ever see in Friends
where Joey goes to Rachel or something like,
how you doing?
And Rachel's like, it doesn't work.
And then she does it to Phoebe.
No, Phoebe goes, that doesn't work.
And then he does it to Phoebe.
It's how you do it.
And Phoebe goes, yes.
And she loves that.
I'm like, that's a summer romance for me.
That's how giddy I feel.
Very smitten kitten.
Yeah.
Yes.
Do you know what I can't wait to see?
Is you doing a hot girl summer with a boyfriend?
Actually, I'll be excited to see you with a boyfriend in general.
For sure.
Need to get to that point.
Need to get to that point.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Working on it.
Yeah, we're working on it.
So your final answer is single.
Single.
Single pringle.
Okay.
Yes.
Tell me yours.
My silly question is, would you rather it rain every day of summer
or snow every day of winter?
Now, winter is December, January, February, isn't it?
Yeah.
I'm taking the snow.
I'm taking the snow.
Are you?
I'm taking the snow.
Are you?
I couldn't deal with that. No. What I love about summer is, and I'm sorry, snow. I'm taking the snow. Are you? I'm taking the snow. Are you? I couldn't deal with it.
No.
What I love about summer is, and I'm sorry, summer in London, elite.
Yeah.
Absolutely elite.
It's great.
Bear gardens.
Everyone's got their stylish outfits on.
Sunny's are out.
Yeah.
Everyone's sat outside.
You can start chatting to people you don't know.
You've got a lovely drink in your hand.
You go for long walks.
You go to different parts.
I'm taking the... Yeah. I can't have rain every single day in the summer that's when i come alive katie is in the summer in the summertime yeah yeah i can imagine yeah and you know what i
love the snow do you i do love snow yes you just don't like the cold i don't like the cold i do
not but like dreary like wet cold winter like not nice snow you're like dreary, like wet, cold, winter, like not nice.
Snow, you're like...
Snow's magical.
And also, what am I, Peach?
A romantic.
What is snow?
What is snow?
Romantic.
So therefore, I'm like, I'll get shy again.
I'll get shy.
Because I'll be like, oh my God, it's back.
And I kind of love that because I'm just like, what could we do?
Snow angels. What else could we do? Snowmen. I'm just like what could we do? Snow angels.
What else could we do?
Snowmen.
I'm just like
snowball fight.
Yeah.
I'm like come on
bring it on.
I'll never forget
when it snowed that night
when we had our flat Christmas
and it was magical.
It was magical.
I loved it.
It was so good.
Oh beautiful.
What would you take?
I think I would take Snow in Winter.
Would you?
It's also more on brand.
You'd have it for your birthday.
Oh, no, you wouldn't.
Sorry.
Yeah.
I think...
Oh, okay.
You wouldn't.
No, no, no.
We could say so.
You would.
Have you ever seen the fake snow?
Yes.
Oh, my God.
I love it.
And again, I think it is romantic romantic would it get boring in like january
yeah yeah would it get yeah potentially yeah but fun fun winter outfits oh you know it there's
kind of nothing better though because this is what i feel when people so obviously you guys know that
i was born in australia you know Yep. Love it. Love all that stuff.
People say to me, like,
why did your parents ever move?
And I'm like, although I love Australia,
I'm glad they did
because they don't get it like we do.
I was like, we get it all.
We get the autumn.
We get the summer.
And you will never see someone so excited
for the summer as a Brit.
Oh, we love it.
Any excuse to get in a fucking beer garden with a...
Yeah.
Sun comes out, or for an Aperol, it seems. What's going to get in a fucking beer garden with that. Yeah. Sun comes out,
or for an Aperol, it seems.
What's going to be your hot girl summer drink?
Well,
it's funny you say this,
because I'm actually not going to be drinking this summer.
I know.
Will that affect the hot girl summer?
Never, because.
Never?
Never?
Never?
Do it again.
Never.
Because it'll either be like i think mocktails
everyone's forget everyone's sleeping on mocktails yeah yeah it's not quite an apparel if it were my
it'll be an apparel will it be the whole summer yeah i'm gonna put myself like on a one drink
limit i'm sorry but like i can't't. So you won't get blackout?
I won't be barred from any more clubs this summer, unfortunately.
That was the highlight of two years ago.
Yeah, it was sensational, actually.
Sensational, yeah.
But no, I think ideally...
Oh no, do you know what's the worst thing about that?
Is you're going to see me piss tipsy.
Oh, yeah.
Because when you're tipsy, it doesn't matter because we're tipsy together. Yeah, but... But you're going to be me piss tipsy like because when you're tipsy it doesn't matter
because we're tipsy together yeah but you're gonna be like tipsy woo tipsy too yeah yeah i'll
be tipsy on my own i know so i'm literally but if it were it's an apple i would have that in
jason's my veins you know i would drink that's that is your go to i love it so much. And also people who say they don't like it, grow up.
I hate them.
Grow up.
Bitter.
Mature your taste buds.
Mature them.
Mature.
I would like to like them,
but they're bitter.
I feel like that,
the same as that with martinis.
I can't do martinis.
Do you know what's the worst alcohol out there?
Do you know?
Gin.
Nope.
Vermouth. Vermouth. I you know what's the worst alcohol out there? Do you know? Gin. No. Vermouth.
Vermouth.
I didn't realise vermouth was alcohol.
It makes, even the word reminds me of how it tastes.
And it makes me like, like slightly.
Like a.
Yeah.
Oh, it's made me eyes water.
I hate vermouth to a fashion.
Really?
So that's not a hot girl drink.
What's your hot girl drink?

Do you know what I really like as well for being in Portugal?
Sangria.
Really?
I've never tried it.
Yeah, I really like sangria.
Is it like mulled wine, but like cold?
Yeah.
The one I had had a cinnamon stick in it. Oh, how odd.
And like loads of fruit. Is that a little bit weird for
the summer? I found it very refreshing.
Really? So it didn't remind you of Christmas?
No, because it was cold.
I see, I see. I'd be like, bleh.
If I had that at Christmas, I'd be like, what's this? The
summertime? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
