Kyle and Jackie O slam Elle Ferguson after she calls herself a global influencer

She irked her fellow Block contestants on Sunday night’s premiere of the show when she raved about her lavish lifestyle.

And now Bondi fashionista Elle Ferguson has been slammed by radio host Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson after giving herself the title of ‘global influencer’.

During Monday morning’s Kyle & Jackie O Show, Kyle said he had never heard of the glamorous blonde.

‘Who the hell is she?!’ Kyle, 51, asked.

The pair also ribbed Elle for raving about becoming a representative for Kim Kardashian’s shapewear brand SKIMS.

‘So you’re allowed to be a representative of a brand – company – wow,’ Kyle said sarcastically. ‘That’s really “making it.”‘

Jackie O noted that Elle, 38, gets sent ‘so many’ amazing gifts and PR packages from brands due to her 680,000 follower count on Instagram.

‘Every single day she’s opening a brand new Louis Vuitton bag, a brand new Gucci bag, or a brand new pair of shoes,’ she said, adding that it can become ‘a bit much’.

‘But people will get jealous of that,’ Kyle butted in. ‘They’ll end up turning on her. No one likes that.’

The first episode of The Block’s 18th season premiered on Sunday night, and despite Joel and Elle’s dramatic exit, which is set to air on Tuesday night, Jackie O said she didn’t think the pair brought any drama.

‘They seem to be pretty chill. They were alright,’ she continued.

‘There was nothing “diva” about their behaviour.’

‘Maybe they got there and thought, “S**t, this isn’t for us. We’re out of here.”‘ Kyle added.

But Elle and Joel immediately rubbed their co-stars the wrong way on Sunday night during The Block premiere after their intro packages.

The pair immediately irked other contestants with their glamorous lifestyle, including social worker Sarah Jane and her partner Tom.

Sarah Jane questioned the couple’s motives for joining a reality show, given that the ritzy pair don’t appear to need the prize money nor the extra fame.

‘She’s already famous with 600,000 followers on Instagram,’ Sarah-Jane seethed.

‘They’ve got a sh*tload of money. Why are you here?’ she added.

Sarah Jane continued: ‘Some I respect, obviously. Some make a huge career from it. Look at your Kim Kardashian and Rozalia Russian. People like that. Beck Judd. Good on them.

‘But people who just go on shows to be social media [stars]. I don’t have time for that sh*t. Like go and get a real job mate.’

She also sparked envy among The Block viewers on Sunday night as she opened the doors of her overflowing designer wardrobe.

She gleefully gave producers a tour of her clothing archives during the couple’s introductory scene as she boasted about working ‘really hard’ for her possessions.

Elle, who previously boasted to her fans about having three closets, chose to show off her ‘fun’ wardrobe, which was stuffed with accessories by the likes of Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada, Chanel, Fendi and Miu Miu.

‘You know, I’ve worked really, really hard for every pair of shoes. And I could buy a house, but I bought shoes and bags, so… yeah!’ she boasted.

‘I think people will definitely put us into a box from our first image,’ Joel said.

‘But I don’t think it will take long for us to break that down and make genuine connections.’

The couple’s time on the show was over before it really began, after they threw in the towel for ‘family reasons’ after just 48 hours on the building site in country Victoria.

It is the first time a team has ever quit the Nine renovation show.

As reported by TV Week, host Cam told the other contestants Elle and Joel left because the show wasn’t ‘on brand’ for them as Sydney influencers. He also said they had complained ‘the toilet paper was too scratchy’.

The fashion influencer and her 37-year-old retired AFL player boyfriend, have disputed this, insisting they quit because of a legitimate family emergency.

The Block airs Sunday at 7.00pm and Monday to Wednesday at 7.30pm on Nine
