“But this can also make her look distant and intimidating.
‘She seemed to see men as a sport and she would be the girl you would want in your corner when it came to a battle of the sexes.
“However, it is this side of Maura’s personality that can confuse and intimidate the men.
“Her dating history includes reality guys with a narcissistic streak and big egos, who are used to getting their way with girls.
“Maura’s celebrity style, however, is more about letting the men take the lead, and that enviable, uncompromising level of self-esteem can often seem to be her downfall with dates.
“Maura’s beauty style and her body language are also unique in the celebrity world.
‘Her appearance helps prevent her from being typecast.
“Now that she’s heading into the jungle, though, we’re about to see a new side of Maura, which should be less about glamor or even high-end red carpet chic and more about being tough, funny and resilient.”
Here, Judi reveals to YASMIN HARISHA the five ways Maura is the ultimate sex symbol and what she is current are plays.
Feminine power
Maura rarely sticks to one signature brand or seems to gain instant recognition.
She regularly changes her image in a way that conveys confidence and a desire not to be stereotyped, either by men or casting agents.
She will also bend her body language to make something of it new look seems congruent, and this ability to execute and wear the new style makes her look like a fashion model rather than a glamor model.
Her on-camera body language rituals elevate her professional status, but they can also intimidate any date who feels like meeting a stranger every time they have to start over from scratch when it comes to dating. grafting.
Relationship status
Maura’s body language shows she’s nobody’s plus one, despite Pete’s current profile on Strictly.
She could have just walked in behind him, but her cheeky, secretive-looking smile shows that she knows exactly how to put a fellow reality star date on stage and get maximum press attention.
Her avoidance of any street-based PDA with Pete gives her “sole proprietorship” status.
She presents herself as a star in her own right here, avoiding looking clingy or possessive and then turning into a celebrity pity party if the relationship doesn’t work out.
She makes her date nights look fun instead of fraught.
The ‘broken wing’ gesture
Maura often poses using the ‘broken wing’ technique, where one or both wrists are bent to suggest vulnerability and kindness.
It’s a rather old-fashioned gesture from a very modern girl and while other girls would understand the irony of the look, which is often accompanied by a coy facial expression, boys run the risk of thinking that Maura is a very sweet, cute pushover.
It is a gesture and pose that acts as a ‘stroke’ to a man’s ego. We know she’s joking, but the men are often in for a shock
Dominant physical strength
This is Maura showing a high level of abilities and physical strength.
Once she drops any flirtatious behavior in the jungle and starts investing in this look, she should start gaining respect from some of the more alpha males out there, like her ex Shane’s father, Barry McGuigan.
Leadership traits
Maura’s Instagram posts don’t just make her look like a Vogue model or flirty reality star; they also tend to send secret signals of a talent for leadership that could help her take control in the jungle.
She poses in all her glory, standing regally elegant with her chin raised to suggest power and a tendency to lead.
Her poses suggest that her natural personality is to be the Queen Bee in a group without using any power muscles.
This might help with some of the jungle challenges, but it might add to the atmosphere of intimidation as far as the guys are concerned, either in the jungle or just dating her. history.
What will she be like in the jungle?
By means of Judi James, body language expert
Back on the dating show, her confidence was evident.
But it came with an amused twinkle in her eye that suggested that, unlike most of the other participants, she didn’t take the boys or even herself too seriously.
Maura’s flirting was as precise and determined as a drone missile.
She came across as a unique blend of a woman who would take your man off you in a heartbeat, but who was also, and most importantly, a girly girl.
Her sense of humor should make her popular with viewers, but her outspokenness could mean she bumps into other contestants.
Viewers love a reality queen who can go into the jungle and prove they have courage, stoicism and physical strength or power.
Maura should check all these boxes and she seems smart enough to understand the winning formula.
Hopefully she’ll put all the talk of Pete Wicks etc behind her and focus on showing us what she’s capable of in terms of wit, heroics and endurance.
Fans will love to see her knock it out of the park when it comes to competing with all the men, and when she does, she could emerge with that jungle crown.
