Celebrity Big Brother 2007

Re: chickengate - were we the only ones shoting at the telly for them to stick a fork in it to see if the juices were clear? I couldn't believe so many so-called adults were so crap in the kitchen. If I'd been Shilpa I'd have thrown the chicken at Danielle's head [and been promptly evicted].

 

[wishface]

CBB this year isn't funny or entertaining it's just tedious and unpleasant. I feel quite sorry for Shilpa, whom I have never heard of before and who may or may not be a nice person. She is clearly being victimised and the show's editing leaves a lot to be desired in that area. The people behind BB really need shooting.

 

[tommers]

I think Big Brother's Big Brain was my favourite. A lady who "puts the gist into psychologist" (more like apologist) was basically being asked to say that Shilpa has brought all this on herself. (I imagine in order to combat accusations of bullying, racism et al.)

Despite saying that Shilpa actually scored the lowest in the Macchiavellian test this person also said that people "come at her in packs" because she "can be a bit patronising".

she also said that Shilpa walking around with bleach on her face and swearing was evidence of "inconsistent bahaviour" and absolutely nothing to do with trying to fit in with a group of fucking idiots, or attempting to show that you have a sense of humour.

interesting stuff. I'll be sure to tell the next 13 year old that complains of bullying that they have brought it on themselves and they just need to be a bit less patronising.

Another thing being discussed on digi spy is 'John Noel Management'......How many of the Brit celebs are on the books.

Jade Goody
Davina McCall
Dermot O'Leary
Russell Brand
100% for sure

and probably

Jack
Jackiey
Jade's PA
Jade's kids
Danielle???

 

[STFC]

Jade's Eskimo questions were quality. Pure comedy gold.

Still don't like her though.

 

[lenny101]

I reckon Daniella, Jade and Jo will be well shocked to be accused of racism when they get out. I don't know if they are being racist or not but they arw being nasty bullies.

Yeah because Shipla isn't allowed to have contradictions in her personality and behaviour like the rest of us.....see my above post on 'John Noel Management' might explain the angle they are taking.

it was quite a blatant attempt to swing people round I thought. Quite shocking really.

Still, it's got me interested again, which I guess is their aim.

I cam away from last night thinking that they were. Nothing really blatant has been said yet (if you don't count the Jack "paki" incident) but there have been enough snidey little remarks that are right on the edge. (e.g. Jo saying that people in india are thin cos they are sick from undercooked chicken, danielle saying she would put thrush in "shilpa's curry", jackiey's referral to her as "the indian" etc etc.)

Yeah, equally guilty here.

I can't say that these people are racists but they are definately using Shipla's ethnicity as a rod to beat her with...therefore being racist in their behaviour in that house.

Nice to see Dave Gorman have the guts to mention the racism on BBLB on Sunday, Dermot got a bit flustered and very quickly dismissed any possibility of racism going on in the house as if it was totally unthinkable.

Theres definitely a party line very much being adhered to by anyone involved with the BB production during all of this racist bullying,

 

[Louloubelle]

I didn't watch this, I've only watched half an hour pr so of it since it's been on, but this morning I was told there was a new scabgate brewing over Danielle saying that they should put vaginal thrush in Shilpa's curry.

Am I being would up or did she really say that?

*hopes someone is winding me up*

Bullying went on last year as well and there was no comeback for the perpetrators....

Last nights gems include...
Indians are skinny because they don't cook their food properly........
They are unhygenic because they eat with their hands........
Whilst playing a word game, danielle said we should put them in Shilpa's curry, refering to thrush, gential scabs and other nastiness...

oh, that is just disgusting
surely C4 can't just allow this to go unchallenged

I just heard on the news that an anti-bullying charity has dropped jade as she's meant to support anit-bullying work but they say that she's clearly a bully herself

I wonder if Jermaine might give the bullies a good talking to? From the little I've seen he seems like a very quiet and dignified man, but I would imagine that, when pushed to his limit, he could be quite forceful in making his opinions known

That Danielle is a real joy isn't she. What an ignorant bitch.

but.... but.... Shilpa brings it on herself doesn't she?

him or dirk would seem to be the last hope. H and Cleo have already adhered themselves firmly to the fence.

 

[bouncer_the_dog]

Jade may be inarticulate, but she certainly aint thick.

She's thick. She's the stupidest person I have ever seen on TV!

 

[Hellsbells]

well i haven't really been watching it properly but when I turned it on last night, it was Shilpa who was taking the piss out of Jade and the way she talks.

 

[Skim]

Couldn't be arsed watching it last night – I get wound up every time Jade opens her big mouth.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

She's thick. She's the stupidest person I have ever seen on TV!

*thinks* You know I think you're right. Those lot are being cunts, that said I don't think Shilpa deserves it but she's blatantly playing into their hands (whether to make them look worse or because she's too thick herself remains to be seen)...can't stand the lot of them. Even Jermaine is starting to look like a bit of a moralistic twat in my eyes...

 

[Guineveretoo]

I am not sure it is racism, but it is quite clear from what I have seen that Jo, Danielle and Jade have taken an active dislike to Shilpa and are behaving like pack animals.

They are foul and obnoxious towards her. Danielle is particularly nasty and vicious.

I wonder if it is a "class" or education issue, since Shilpa is clearly better educated and better spoken than that trio of idiots.

I did think Shilpa came across as being a bit patronising when she laughed at Jade's pronunciation of "whale", but I can understand why she couldn't understand it, whereas, I cannot understand why that gang of harpies are behaving how they are.

Yeah not 100% convinced it's straight out racism. There's blatantly some class thing going on and probably a little "this is our country" shit too...

Except that is not what they said

but thanks for putting that spin on it to stir up some moral outrage and paint people as racists

Well I heard a couple of them laughing about the first one.

 

[clandestino]

There's definitely some racism in there. It's the core of their bullying - you can see them all resassuring each other that their behaviour's OK with yet another snide dig. Classic bullying behaviour.

My biggest fear is that the majority of people watching the show - perhaps the people who buy Jade's autobiography - agree with the bullies. And that Shilpa will be boo-ed when she leaves the house and the bullies cheered. That, essentially, Britain is a racist county.

The whole thing makes me feel sick.

What did they say then? That's what I heard.
I don't enjoy painting people as racists at all so roll your eyes back the other way and tell us what you' think they said.

Actually you are quite funny....I'm not saying Shilpa is untouchable but you can stick your fingers in your ears, shut your eyes and shout lalalalalalalala bullying doesn't exist lalalalalalala there haven't been nasty comments that border on the racist lalalalalaalalala Shilpa isn't being victimised lalalalalalala......

isn't it? I missed the second one, but certainly heard the first and third.
