Too Hot To Handle: Haley Cureton has ‘literally no idea where Australia is’

Too Hot To Handle’s Haley Cureton says she has ‘literally no idea where Australia is’ on the new Netflix show – despite ‘studying geography in Florida’

Netflix’s raunchy new show Too Hot To Handle is far from educational. 

Viewers have been left baffled by American student Haley Cureton, 20, and her lack of general knowledge after the season started streaming last week.

Despite being a ‘geography major’ at the University of Northern Florida, the blonde admitted she has ‘literally no idea’ where Australia is in the world.

Haley made the bizarre admission during the first episode of the season. 

‘I like the international vibe. Harry’s from Australia and I literally have no idea where that is,’ she said, talking about her Queensland born co-star, Harry Jowsey.  

‘Kelz [Dyke, from London] has a beautiful accent, but I can’t really understand him. Honestly, everyone’s accent that isn’t American sounds the same. It’s all blending together for me.’

Bizarre: Haley's Instagram previously said she's a 'geography major' at the University of Northern Florida, but this has now been removed since the show started streaming

Her remarks led to much hilarity from viewers across social media.

Many even pointed out that the student revealed she was a ‘geography major’ in her Instagram biography before the show aired, but has since removed this.     

‘So Haley is a geography major but had no idea where Australia is… sure! She was definitely trying to lean into that dumb blonde stereotype,’ laughed one person.

Another person questioned: ‘Did Haley on #TooHotToHandleNetflix say she has no idea where Australia is? Babes. Really?’
