Noosa councillor ‘sleazy’ Jess Glasgow cops $4,000 fine after being booted off The Bachelorette
A former Noosa councillor who was booted off the TV dating show The Bachelorette in 2019 over sleazy comments has been fined $4,000 by the state regulator.
Key points:
- Jess Glasgow lost his seat on the council in last year’s election
- He resisted calls to step down after his Bachelorette appearance attracted scores of complaints
