My Kitchen Rules star Jane compared to 'Tan Mom' after she leaves viewers 'alarmed' with epic makeup fail: 'Can we talk about the tan?'

My Kitchen Rules stars Jane and Shane divided the nation with their forthright opinions and wild behaviour on the current series.

Jane found herself under the spotlight for a very different reason on Monday night's episode when the polarising Blue Mountains couple crashed and burned during their Instant Restaurant.

While their unsightly 'mummified' pigeon dish will go down in history, viewers found  themselves equally fixated on Jane's foundation.

'Can we talk about the tan application?' quipped one MKR fan about the food stylist. 

'I really expected so much from a career that insists on detail, and was alarmed at the tanning gaps more so than the cooking,' they continued.

'Omg I thought the same thing, she cooked like her tan application,' snapped another viewer, alongside two face with tears of joy emojis.

'Yeh it wasn’t nice at all,' wrote one more. 

Elsewhere, another MKR enthusiast let a picture speak a thousand words by simply sharing an image of Patricia Krenticil, aka Tan Mom, who became a pop culture icon back in 2012.

There were fans, however, who were quick to leap to Jane's defense.

'Leave her alone for goodness sake,' wrote one supporter.

'People need to just stop,' agreed another. 

My Kitchen Rules viewers were stunned during Monday night's episode after the team served up a 'mummified' pigeon dish.

Jane, who developed a reputation for her fiery outspoken persona, confidently told producers that the fowl concoction would be a smash hit with co-stars.

'It looks beautiful and refined on the plate. I feel this is going to be a 10,' Jane said.

However, the cooking process didn't go as planned, and Jane admitted as she prepared the dish that she feared she had overcooked it.

'It tastes really dry! It is the complete opposite of what we wanted, it is super dry, the pigeon is mummified!' a horrified Jane admitted.

The pair were then forced to 'pivot' their plans by throwing the pigeon dish into a pressure cooker to see if it would tenderise the food. 

Unfortunately, it didn't help the dish at all and a horrified Jane was forced to admit their plans had failed.

'The pressure cooker didn't do anything! The stupid bird is getting worse and worse. This is an absolute nightmare!' she complained.

Things went from bad to worse when cast members brutally slammed the meal.

'This pigeon looks like it has been in the crematorium,' one person sniped. 

'Pigeon is dry, dry, dry! I did not expect this from them,' a second contestant added.
