Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Players for the ‘SQUID GAME’ needed chapstick in the dorm so badly that they ended up using lubricated condoms on their lips during filming..
The aforementioned toiletry bag included stuff like hand sanitizer and toothbrushes—pretty important hygienic materials. There were also communal items like towels participants could use, but chapstick wasn’t among them. After a few days of zero lip balm, folks got desperate and unwrapped new condoms to hydrate their lips. Plutnicki didn’t do this. Instead, he tried other toiletries as chapstick, but nothing he used worked well.
While knowing the premise of what they were signing up for, the players never expected the brutal conditions of what they allegedly had to endure. Multiple reports have come out from players claiming the filming for Red Light, Green Light was brutal, while others have revealed they had to follow strict rules – like no canoodling.
Some players even called out Netflix for forcing them to live in the same grimy tracksuits during their time on the series. There are also claims of Netflix asking them to “pretend” to be competing.
The slew of stories are becoming endless, but one has taken the cake. According to reports, players were so desperate for chapstick that they resorted to using condoms.
Apparently, the show banned tons of personal belongings, including lip balm. There was a small bag of toiletries contestants received after the first episode, but with folks stuck on location for 16 days, everyone was offered just a handful of amenities to get by. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, competitor Trey Plutnicki confirmed that some contestants resorted to smearing lubrication from condoms on their lips to alleviate dryness, which participants continued to struggle with even after applying the lubricant.
