How old is the gc cast

But in the end I said yes. Things have changed somewhat for the cast between season one and two. Down here we can make as much noise as we want, we can have people come through the door and it's not a problem. Indeed, one thing the cast of The GC seem to have been consistently is successful. They may like to party and spend a lot of time on their images, but they're an ambitious bunch who work hard for their lifestyle. It's very exciting for him. Meanwhile, Noema has moved on from the scaffolding business and has taken on a new challenge as co-owner of a male topless waitering company KiwiRize.

I keep myself fit anyway, so I may as well jump in and have a go on the business side. I always enjoy a challenge and it's something different from doing your normal nine-to-five.

This new business focus, and a need to keep his figure in top condition, has seen Noema spending less time partying this season, too. Can't be partying and going hard all your life, you gotta wind it down eventually.

I'm not getting any younger," the year-old laughs. The ladies work hard, too - Arkle is an in-demand model and when she's not doing photo shoots she works as a book-keeper. Harawira is still working hard on her career as a singer her debut single Vibrations made it to No1 on iTunes when it was released in James is an executive assistant and DJ Tuini works full-time as a Queensland club DJ, while also balancing being a single mum. One thing they all have to contend with, though, is keeping in touch with their Maori side while "living the dream" across the Ditch.

In fact, one of the requirements for the show to receive more funding from Te Mangai Paho Maori Broadcast Funding Agency was to show more Maori culture, and in particular to use more te reo.

Was that difficult for the cast? But there was really nothing particularly shocking about the first episode at all. A group of young Maori living and working on the Gold Coast known as "Mozzies" — Maori Aussies have a housewarming party. They spend hours primping and preening for the big night and then go to a nightclub where the boys are told they have to cover their tattoos so they improvise using pantyhose from the local convenience store and the girls deal with relationship drama in between spins on the dance floor.

They drink, converse in curious but amusing slang such as "aunties" single girls and are predominantly preoccupied with pursuing "the talent" the opposite sex. It's not profound, and there is a lot of gratuitous cleavage and well-oiled biceps, but the only crime these kids seem to have committed is being young and taking advantage of it.

Thousands of young Kiwis are on their OEs right now and probably getting up to far worse. The GC crew have ambitions. They might not be what society deems as top-tier ambitions — model, rapper and property investor among them — but they're giving it a go.

The show's executive producer, Bailey Mackey, says he was inspired by the "really confident young Maori" he encountered while on holiday in the Gold Coast. Yet social media sites lit up with condemnation after The GC aired on Wednesday. People were embarrassed.
