WATCH: MAFS’ Amanda initially QUIT the show to reunite with her exWATCH: 

And after Jessika Power confirmed that one bride this year is definitely looking to win notoriety, it’s safe to assume she was referring to Amanda Micallef. A resurfaced StarNow profile proves the show’s first lesbian bride is an actress, performer, model and presenter who has “raw talent” and the ability to pull off 19 different accents— Japanese, Mexican, German, African, Russian, Middle Eastern, Spanish, Latin American and Italian to name a few.

“I can do any type of American accent, be that southern belle, Afro-American from Philly or a playa from the Bronx, even a straight-up Yankee from Wall Street,” said the reality TV bride who has successfully gained thousands of followers since her short stint on MAFS.

“I believe I can act! When I speak I do with conviction and clarity. I would love to be Australia’s bad a** on film. I’m going to be honest, I have no formal acting training.
“I was never taught to method act but I have been able to transform into characters my whole life naturally. The kids on the street call this raw talent. I was an extra in The Knowing, but I just had to stand there in the subway scene, and I played main parts of dramas and plays in high school.

Confident she has what it takes to make it big time in the showbiz world, Amanda said she’s truly dedicated to her craft and even practices alone in front of her mirror.

“I have entertained my family for years, with my improvised comedic ability, and have been able to upstage anyone with sheer wit and talent. I rehearse all the time, when I am alone. I guess it depends on what you’re after, but I know what I can bring both physically and professionally!

“Acting is something I love to do, and call me crazy for not having pursued it at school, but sometimes we do those things best at which we love the most.”

Since she was exposed as an actress, her ex-wife Tash Herz has been taking jabs at Amanda for signing onto the series for all the wrong reason.

Commenting on her new girlfriend, Madison Hewitt’s latest Instagram photo, Tash took a not so subtle swipe at her ex, sarcastically writing: “Everything about this photo screams why you don’t feel the need to have a Starnow profile.”

After reigniting their feud, Amanda hit back at Tash on social media, leaving a scathing remark underneath a photo of the star and her new girlfriend

What a pack of fake plastic try hard moles! No f**ks given,” Amanda commented. “She’s a disgusting person on many levels … every dog has their day.”

Madison— whose Instagram handle is Pretzel— quickly hit back, sarcastically writing: “I’d be bitter too if I was rejected on national television. Here comes the real Amanda. Sending my love.” 

Amanda then replied: “I’m far from bitter… I don’t date vague boring fake brunettes. Good luck salty. I mean Pretzel. Clearly you’re fit to bend like one too.”

While she eventually deleted her harsh comments, she told News.com.au that she stands by what she wrote and would do the same again.

“The reason why I had a crack last night is because Tash is doing all these spoiler stories,” she told the outlet. “There’s absolutely no regard or respect to us whilst we’ve been filming on the actual experiment, so I had a crack.

“She’s going around calling me aggressive; well I showed her a little bit of aggression last night to remind her that she’s an idiot and I’ve got no respect to her.”
