She angered her fellow Block contestants at the show’s premiere on Sunday night when she praised her lavish lifestyle.
And now Bondi fashionista Elle Ferguson has come under fire from radio host Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson after calling herself a ‘global influencer’.
On Monday morning’s Kyle & Jackie O Show, Kyle said he’s never heard of the glamorous blonde.

‘Who the hell is she?!’ Kyle, 51, asked.
The pair also slammed Elle for her enthusiasm to become a representative for Kim Kardashian’s shapewear brand, SKIMS.
“So you’re allowed to represent one brand – one company – wow,” Kyle said sarcastically. “It’s really ‘doing it’.
Jackie O noted that Elle, 38, receives “so many” amazing freebies and PR packages from brands due to her Instagram following of 680,000.
“Every day she opens a brand new Louis Vuitton bag, a brand new Gucci bag or a brand new pair of shoes,” she said, adding that it can get “a little too much.”
“But people are going to get jealous of that,” Kyle added. “They will eventually turn against her. Nobody likes that.

The first episode of the 18th season of The Block aired Sunday night, and despite Joel and Elle’s dramatic outing, which is set to air Tuesday night, Jackie O said she doesn’t think the pair bring any drama.
‘They seem to be rather cold. They were fine,” she continued.
“There was nothing ‘diva’ about their behavior.”

“Maybe they got there and thought, ‘Damn, this isn’t for us. We got out of here. “” Kyle added.
But Elle and Joel immediately rubbed their co-stars the wrong way Sunday night at The Block premiere after their intro packages.
The couple immediately irritated the other contestants with their glamorous lifestyle, including social worker Sarah Jane and her partner Tom.

Sarah Jane questioned the couple’s motives for joining a reality show, given that the classy couple don’t seem to need the prize money or the extra fame.
“She’s already famous with 600,000 followers on Instagram,” fumes Sarah-Jane.
“They have a shit of money. Why are you here?’ she added.
Sarah Jane continued: “Some I respect, obviously. Some make a huge career out of it. Look at your Russian Kim Kardashian and Rozalia. People like that. Beak Judd. Of course on them.

“But people who just go on shows to be social media [stars]. I don’t have time for this shit. Like picking up a real co-worker.

She happily gave producers a tour of her clothing archive during the couple’s introductory scene as she boasted that she worked “really hard” for her possessions.
She, who previously bragged to fans about having three closets, chose to show off her “fun” wardrobe, filled with accessories from the likes of Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada, Chanel, Fendi and Miu Miu.

“You know, I worked really, really hard for every pair of shoes. And I could buy a house, but I bought shoes and bags, so…yeah! she was bragging.
“I think people are definitely going to put us in a box from our first picture,” Joel said.
“But I don’t think it will take us long to break that down and make some real connections.”
The couple’s time on the show was over before it really started, having thrown in the towel for ‘family reasons’ after just 48 hours on the building site in country Victoria.
This is the first time that a team has left the Nine renovation fair.
As TV Week reported, host Cam told the other contestants that Elle and Joel left because the show wasn’t “on brand” for them as Sydney influencers. He also said they had complained that “the toilet paper was too rough”.
The fashion influencer and her 37-year-old retired AFL player boyfriend disputed that, insisting they quit due to a legitimate family emergency.
The Block airs Sundays at 7:00 p.m. and Monday-Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. on Nine
