the mexican football team has a 17 yrs old player and one of the funniest outcomes of this is that he cannot appear in any ad for gambling or drinking so he only appears in candy and milk advertisements. his first world cup and he's not even legally allowed to drive. his nickname is "morita" (little berry). he's three apples tall.
they couldn't put him in the beer campaign so he was represented by a bunch of berries
my mums recently started watching the show “elle”, which is a prequel series to legally blonde about elle woods in high school, and overall id say its kind of just a very pointless prequel BUT. one positive thing i will say about the show is this: the premise of it (despite making very little sense with the story of legally blonde) is stupidly funny. the whole idea is that elle woods has had to move to seattle and is now at a high school thats all like, liberal and artsy and so she doesnt fit in. it really makes me giggle
Elle Woods, in the Legally Blonde Prequel Series: As a bubbly, blonde teen used to living a life of positive vibes and sunshine, it is genuinely cruel that my parents are forcing me to live in the dreary, rainy world of Seattle and go to school with all these like, grunge, unfriendly punks. Everyone wears PLAID.

Why We Could All Use a Little More 'Elle Woods'
We all know the stereotype of the 'misfit.' Chances are, you picture a quiet loner sitting in the corner of the classroom, dressed in dark clothes. What you probably don't picture is a blonde, hyper-social, pink-obsessed teen who lives for fashion and makeup. Yet, the new Prime Video series Elle (the prequel to Legally Blonde) proves that she can be the ultimate misfit.
Culture Shock in Seattle
In Elle, we follow a younger Elle Woods as she moves with her parents from sunny LA to rainy Seattle. Her junior year turns out completely different than she had hoped. While LA is all about glitz and glamour, the teenagers in Seattle are dead serious, down-to-earth, and politically conscious. Surrounded by raincoats and social debates, Elle sticks out like a sore thumb with her toxic optimism and designer outfits. She is immediately judged as a superficial, privileged girl who turns a blind eye to the 'real' problems in the world.
(Spoilers ahead, read at your own risk! <3)
More is More
When I watched the series, I instantly felt a connection. Just like Elle, I’ve been a massive fan of the more is more principle since I was a kid. The more color, the better. I used to mix the craziest fabrics and prints to create what was—in my eyes—the perfect outfit. And just like Elle, it made me stand out. I was a misfit, but a social one who loved chatting with everyone.
I was constantly told that I needed to live in 'reality.' I was expected to focus on the serious, grim things happening in the world: poverty, injustice, war. Of course, I know these horrors exist. But I also know I can't solve them all by myself. Awareness is important, but constantly dragging yourself down into a negative spiral doesn't make the world any better.
Who's the Crazy One Here?
If you look closely at the series, Elle is ironically the most 'normal' one. Sure, she is a bit naive, but she is social, she isn't afraid to show her true colors, and she genuinely tries to boost the school spirit. Her classmates, on the other hand? They are stuck in their own little cliques, wearing nothing but shades of gray, and talking about nothing but the world's misery. Is that supposed to be the standard for 'normal'?
Beyond the Backlash
Unfortunately, that heavy, overly serious attitude from her classmates is exactly what we see in the real world right now. Since its release, the series has faced quite a bit of backlash. Critics and viewers are complaining that the show is too 'bleak and superficial' and completely misses the mark for a teen drama. But honestly? I couldn't disagree more.
Of course, it’s not some heavy, deep psychological thriller, but it doesn't need to be. Elle is exactly what it's supposed to be: a delightful, lighthearted series that is perfect for winding down. Something doesn't have to be complicated to be good.
As far as I'm concerned, the conclusion is simple: the world is already heavy and serious enough. Let the critics talk, turn your brain off, and just give the show a chance. Throw on those bright colours, bring some positivity, and embrace your inner Elle Woods. Because of a little extra pink? We could all use it.
After all, as Elle Woods herself would say: "What, like it’s hard?" Embrace that positivity! What do you think? Could we use a little more colour, or are you Team Seattle? Let me know in the comments! Kisses!

ELLE - Teaser ( 2026 )
Im confiscating Just A Girl by No Doubt until you all learn to actually listen to the lyrics
LEXI MINETREE as ELLE WOODS
Prime Video: Obsession is in Session - ELLE ( 2026 )
on the one hand: Amazon putting out a Legally Blonde prequel show called Elle about Elle Woods in high school when her family temporarily moves to Seattle in the 90s FEELS like a shallow cash grab somehow since it's a) amazon, and b) legally blonde is so beloved.
On the other hand, it was Reese Witherspoon's idea (she got the idea watching Wednesday, apparently) and she's really excited about it and I know she absolutely adores that character and LB3 has been in development limbo for close to a decade at this point, so I am hopeful it's at least clearly made with LOVE even if it's not great.
And on the third hand I love that Reese was part of the casting process for Elle specifically and that they cast an unknown actress named Lexi Minetree, and VISUALLY at least the girl is a perfect fuckin fit because just look AT her:
elle woods.
elle, s01e01 — pilot.
elle, opening title (2026).
Miles sucks. He is a jock, cute, sweet, charitable, but he doesn't make big moves. He quietly cheats on his girlfriend. He quietly supports elle when she feels out of place, but doesn't do anything tangible. He doesn't stand up for her or anyone when something goes wrong. He asks dumb questions to feel justified in making bad choices. When Elle is calling home to leave, he just stands there like an idiot. He is only there when everything is good to soak in Elle's sparkle and actively makes everything worse all the time.
Dustin is different. He is loud and unapologetic. He lets Elle sit with him even when she is unpopular. He takes he out of her comfort zone. He stands up for injustice and is considerate of those around him. He helps Elle embrace new experiences and explore every outlandish idea. He is in every scene where Elle is outcast, supporting her, except the very last when he gets hurt. She learns so much from Dustin, but nothing from Miles.
Elle woods show needs to make Elle bisexual no joke
omigodyouguys has anyone seen the new legally blonde tv series? i binge watched all of it today and it’s AMAZING im obviously team dustin because in spite of my love for white boys this MANNNNN is SO hot, he reminds me of daveed diggs in a way, the things i would do to him.
the PERFECT enemies to lovers! however. elle had SUCH chemistry with everyone i needed a fanfic where theyre all in a polycule YESTERDAY
anyways thats it if anyone has watched it and want to chatttt…
Really loving "Elle"!!! 😀 I love the "Legally Blonde" movies so I figured I would love the show, and it's great. Great cast, it feels like a lot of teen shows and movies from the 90s, and so much great music. Just watched "The Breakfast Club" themed episode and that was so well done too, and that's another of my favorite movies. So happy it's already been renewed for a 2nd season and can't wait!!!
