you do know that jade had to skip a lot of school in order to care for her disabled, drug addict mother? so all this stuff about her being "common" "from the slums" "ill mannered" "disgraceful" "stupid" "thick" "ill educated" "needing elocution" etc thats been chucked at her inside the house by someone who is part of the wealthy class (even has a bunch of "servants") is fucking unbelievable imo. nobody cares about that though because jade isnt pretending to cry about it. jade has put up with a couple of weeks worth of class based abuse in there, in her position id have chucked something at shilpas head within a couple of days.
i cannot get over the amount of hypocritical bullshit being slung about the press, accusing jade of being a bully, by people who are from much wealthier and more educated backgrounds than hers, all calling her a fat, gross, ugly, stupid, racist, slag, bitch, pig, dog, all over the tv, papers, radios.. and she doesnt even have the ability to respond. unbelievable.
...until yesterday, there had been no evidence of racism from jade whatsoever. note that the accusations have been flying all week. sky news have been covering it pretty much 24/7 but, amazingly, they had no actual clips of anything even remotely resembling racism, to show. so the best the press has come up with was:
jack (jades bf) allegedly calling shilpa a "paki" - this was a misunderstanding brought on because C4 bleeped him. but what he actually called her, was a "cunt". funny that once that came out the allegation sort of just disappeared with an 'oh well, we all make mistakes, he might have been thinking it though'. noone cares about the sexism of calling her a cunt, i noticed.
danielle told her to go home. shown on its own, as it mostly was, it looked bad. in context - shilpa has on countless occasions done the "oh im so unhappy here, i want to go home" drama bit - check this shit out - she even has a pair of fairy wings she wears when she's depressed, with the double puropose of cheering her up, and notifying everyone that shilpa needs love. seriously.
