Celebrity Big Brother 2007

[Sweaty Betty]

Blast from the past!!

Bit harsh on that Jo. If only she smiled a bit more, I used to think that she was the fit one!

*embarrassed*

I have only ever seen her on the couch smoking a fag.....

 

[Yossarian]

It seems like a lot of the fuss being made is manufactured to attract interest in the show – and it looks like it’s been a successful strategy!

I reckon the new housemates are going to be Simone Clarke, Al Sharpton, and Shabazz…

*embarrassed*

I nearly said nooooooo!! that was the one with the dreads that was fit, but then realised that was someone in Steps (probably, not sure, i think) They were all a bit interchangeable really

But seriously, she does seem quite depressed and on edge. Not sure it was the right thing for her to do at the moment. I think she only went in for the money as her dog breeding business is 35k in the hole aparently...

 

[Orangesanlemons]

Well, death threats concerning the coven have been recieved by Endemol and passed on to Hertfordshire police, according to Sky news. Only a matter of time really...

 

[Lisarocket]

Bloody Ell. The live feed is on for us mere terrestrial viewers and guess what?

Jade is slagging off Shilpa again Big Time.

I'm disappointed with Cleo...

Got any odds on that Oranges

 

[Strumpet]

Im watching.......and i am VERY disappointed with Cleo too. I thought she was a strong woman....ffs....

I wasnt fooled

 

[Lisarocket]

Were there any noms today? I can't wait to vote one of these witches out

Jades getting paranoid. After earlier on specualting the Shilpa is a mole she is now saying that 'she (Shilpa) could be someone off the Old Kent Road for all i know'

 

[rocketman]

Does Jade EVER stop with the self-regarding BS?

 

[Strumpet]

Blah haylz I still adore Cleo though but I wish she would fukn SAY something! Disappointed with the Face on that score too......

Havent noms been postponed?


For some reason I think most of the other celebs have put Jade on a lil pedestal...and she is lording it over them big time, it's masssaging her ego superbly. I'm clueless as to why, maybe because she has done it all before? Fuk knows....

 

[rocketman]

Well, check today's front pages on this matter, particularly like The Times - 'Sponsor threatens to pull out of Big Brother of racism row."
Sponsor is Carphone Warehouse
Here's Carphone Warehouse's CEO's blogblog. He hasn't discussed it there yet.

Thanks to Digital Spy for The Times link!

 

[DJ Triviality]

Main story on GMTV - Shilpa being victim of racism. Andrew Castle asks her agent "Is there racism?" she replies "boarderline".

People of Southall are outraged and MP is wanting to get the TV company.

 

[DJ Triviality]

Why do they have to bring the mood down at 7:15 in the morning?

They could have done a 10 minuter on Danielle's breasts in yesterday's 'its a knockout' challenge.

 

[LDR]

Even if the racism issue is correct or not, there is definitely bullying going on and it doesn't look like the producers are doing anything to address it. In fact, I suspect it raises ratings for them.

It's disgusting.

 

[Chairman Meow]

Humour me.....As a child I used to hear jokes, comments and ideas that I internalised and believed to be true...Some of those ideas were racist, as a child I didn't realise that, hell I'm sure I even repeated some of them. I was not a racist child.

OK, I'll humour you - I believe you weren't a racist child. However we aren't talking about children here, we are talking about adults who are big enough to know better than spout this unthinking crap [re Shilpa living inn a shack / Indian people not knowing proper hygiene and cooking etc]. So, again my question is - what is the difference between someone saying racist things and being racist?

 

[sheothebudworths]

I'm disappointed with Cleo...

Yep - despite her pained expression each time they start up, she's not only maintaining a pathetic silence, but whenever she does say something, it's quite often to Shilpa and almost suggesting that Shilpa's at fault by buying into the game or whatever!

I imagine it's just that she finds Shilpa more approachable and therefore easier to tackle from that direction than going for the root cause(s).

I suspect Endemol are hoping record numbers will vote because of this.

 

[chazegee]

Bring back Donny

She IS the one with dreds!!!!

What a load of bollox - so Shilpa has engineered it all? Not from where I'm sitting! I can't believe that article is blaming the bullied person for being bullied, then saying she manipulated it all!

Although if this interpretation is correct, then Shetty is the best game player Big Brother has ever seen.

 

[Skim]

I tuned into the live feed last night and Jade was squeezing her blackheads

Then Dirk and Jermaine were having a conversation which kept cutting to birdsong. All I caught was Dirk saying "I could escape over that wall if I wanted to"... then it cut to birdsong again

 

[sheothebudworths]

She IS the one with dreds!!!!

No she's not....that was indeed the one from Steps (Faye?).

[sheothebudworths]

Can't recall if it was last night or the night before, but she was doing that, looking in the miror right by the diary room.....when Shilpa was inside.

 

[Schmetterling]

What struck me was Cleo really didn't say ANYthing. She just started sentences that veered off in many directions, was often halted by other people's comments, re-started her sentences that trailed off again and somehow ceased without any statement or conclusion.
Had listened to Down the Line on R4 earlier on; she reminded me of one of the callers on there.

 

[Treacle Toes]

She was stuttering, constantly looking up to her left (as if thinking on her feet) removing her eye contact, and covering her face by scratching her nose. Classic signs of bullshit.

That's what made me think she was lying.
And yes...you could be right about her actually having 'a' dream. I just don't believe it was the way she told it.

 

[Rollem]

it doesn't look like the producers are doing anything to address it. In fact, I suspect it raises ratings for them.

bing bang bong

and aren't we all watching it that little bit more, and aren't we all talking about it that little bit more.

if truly disgusted would you not just stop watching?
