Married At First Sight's Jason Engler has slammed his fame hungry co-stars for chasing the spotlight.
During an appearance on Bryce Ruthven and Melissa Rawson's podcast What Happens After, the tradie said that some of their fellow cast members had grown inflated egos since appearing on TV.
'I've seen a lot of, even close mates from this show, they will get out of the show and think they're like some kind of magic celebrity,' he said.

'Like, "ooh look at me, I was filmed for 12 weeks on some lame-a** TV show." Whoop-de-doo, please,' he continued.
'You're the same bloody person, not a bloody celebrity so that s**t really grinds my gears,' he added.
Several participants from this year's season of Married At First Sight have signed with talent agencies since filming wrapped.
Ouch! 'You're the same bloody person, not a bloody celebrity so that s**t really grinds my gears,' Jason said. Pictured: Beck Zemek and Booka Nile
