Warning: This post contains spoilers for Love Is Blind season 4.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
More than just a reality TV villain? During Micah Lussier<\/strong> <\/a>and Irina Solomonova<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s\u00a0Love Is Blind\u00a0<\/i><\/a>tenures, eagle-eyed viewers noticed the women acting like mean girls<\/a> to the other pod contestants.<\/p>\n \u201cI mean, you know what? So be it,\u201d Micah exclusively told\u00a0Us Weekly\u00a0<\/i>ahead of the season 4 premiere<\/a> in March 2023. \u201cWhat [Irina] did for me was make me laugh<\/a> and reminded me who I am\u00a0[and] that I like to laugh. I like to joke. Like, this is a really serious situation, but I don\u2019t have to be miserable. Like, I can enjoy myself a little bit and she gave me that, and for that, I don\u2019t regret it.\u201d<\/p>\n The marketing manager and Irina were both cast as participants on Netflix\u2019s fourth season<\/a> of the hit dating show. In the midst of searching for The One<\/a>, viewers noticed the two pals seemingly making fun of the other women. In one scene, Irina is seen\u00a0laughing from behind the kitchen island while\u00a0Amber Wilder<\/strong> breaks down in tears over her love triangle with Paul Peden<\/strong> and his eventual fianc\u00e9e, Micah.<\/p>\n Micah was also spotted laughing at others\u2019 expense during the pod experiment<\/a>. When Jackelina Bonds<\/strong> teared up over potentially hurting Josh Demas<\/strong>\u2019 feelings with a group of women, the former realtor interrupted the group. \u201cDo you have a headache or is it men<\/a>?\u201d Micah asked the sobbing dental assistant.\u00a0When Jackelina was too upset to answer, Micah shared a look with Irina and stifled a giggle.<\/p>\n Irina\u2019s own \u201cmean girl\u201d behavior spurned a bitter rivalry with Bliss Poureetezadi<\/strong> over Zack Goytowski<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s affections. Things intensified when Irina seemed jealous that the senior program manager was\u00a0baking cupcakes for Zack\u2019s birthday<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 and she forgot what day it was. Both the Solo founder and Bliss went on to complain to the attorney about one another.<\/p>\n \u201cHey. Look, I know I talk s\u2014t about some girls, but I don\u2019t have any ill intent,\u201d Irina told Zack in the pods, who looked confused on the other side of the wall. \u201cIf I\u2019m in the kitchen with [Bliss] and I\u2019m like, \u2018Ooh, how\u2019s that tasting?\u2019 Like, that\u2019s just me. I mean those things [and] I\u2019m not trying to be, like, snaky or mischievous.\u00a0It\u2019s just different for her. I feel weird that she feels so weird.\u201d<\/p>\n Zack ultimately dumped Bliss in favor of his connection<\/a> with the Russia native. While he proposed sight unseen, they ultimately went their separate ways<\/a> not long after meeting in person.<\/p>\n \u201c[Meeting him] was a lot more challenging than I thought it was gonna be. Like, it was really hard to connect the connection\u00a0we made in the pods\u00a0versus being together,\u201d Irina exclusively told\u00a0Us\u00a0<\/i>in March 2023<\/a>. \u201cI will say that when I saw him it wasn\u2019t anything about his looks or anything, but I just had this gut feeling that something just didn\u2019t feel right, and I didn\u2019t feel safe or comfortable. \u2026 It was just something that grew, and I feel I\u00a0was kinda trying to force or pressure myself<\/a>\u00a0to feel these feelings for him.\u201d<\/p>\n Sign up for Us Weekly’s free, daily newsletter<\/a> and never miss breaking news or exclusive stories about your favorite celebrities, TV shows and more!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Scroll below to read Irina and Micah\u2019s candid quotes about becoming reality TV villains<\/a>:<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
