Cookie Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Come on I know everyone says they don't watch it and all that, but you can't really miss whats going on at the moment, annoying as fook (someone please shoot her) Jade has been accused of being racist to I'm a snotty nosed indian princess Shilpa. So come on what do you all think! I have my views but wish to start the topic in an un-biased way
Smudger105e Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 I don't think calling someone Indian is racist. That is like saying that calling me English is racist. The other bits I've heard are in my opionion, just ignorance by the others. I don't like racism. I don't understand why people are racist. What I have heard so far does not seem racist to me. And I have found in my life the biggest racists are often the black members of society with a huge chip on their shoulders (yes I know it's a sweeping statement, but I don't say ALL).
Slik 50 Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 I have honestly not seen one program of this series just what I hear on the radio. And to be honest they only show you what they want you to see via clever editing. I thing though the whole thing (Program. Celebraties and the racist issue) it nothing but utter Boll*cks
escort21 Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Its all bollox, medias over-dramatisation of a non-existant problem, wouldn't be supprised if it was done on purpose for ratings
Daveyboy20 Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 I actually enjoy big brother in the summer when its the proper one me and my mates generally think its shite to start with but then get into it and watch it and watch the Big brothers big mouth things too and enjoy them, however i havent watched any of this celebrity one. From what ive seen and heard the comments arent racist and it seems kind of racist to think they are. I heard one girl call shilpa a dog which is the least racist insult ive heard! There was a comment about eating with your fingers but thats just a culure clash in my book - the people on it are not very well educated and just ignorant. Thats my opinion. And as for the ever increasing millions of complaints they have to be bandwagon jumpers!
DeuceCoupe Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 i think its women being women meaning just being bitches not racist
Burns Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 couldn't give a crap about that program personally, bunch of z listers (apart from the face) who are trying to get attention. of course it's all for ratings, that's what tv's all about they could edit that program to make it look like all the contestants believe in little green men or whatever, what a load of tosh. rant over
antz Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 dont really care. dont watch tv so ive only heard what other people have been saying. they should of stopped making it as soon as someone came up with it idea of it! crap programme but i DO NOT AGREE WITH RACISM!
Mrp Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 I didnt see all of Wales screeming racism last year when they were impersonating Glyns accent and generaly ripping it out of him? Some people like to play the card. Im not racist i have had several black cars
MK5 Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 just a load of hype to boost the ratings of a crap program, and to get some Z listers some attention
orionmojo Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 i havent watched any of it, but i'e heard the clips on the radio. load of rubish. the racism card is played again, and again everyone jobsworths jump otheir high horses and say its wrong. whats wrong is what pete burns did to jodie marsh and that baywatch girl (i dot kow her name) last year. that was plain and simple wrong, unprovoked and uneccessary. i reckon its girls being bitchy, and now tey dot like each other they're gratig on each ohers nerves. simple as.
Admin Vista Posted January 18, 2007 Admin Report Posted January 18, 2007 Haven't watched it , don't watch it, never will watch it and therefore have no comment to make on what may or may not have been said. But having seen Blimp Goody on other TV programs it wouldn't surprise me, she's certainly stupid enough to say something ill advised. And if she did and Ch4 screened it when they could have edited it out then shame on them! Aren't relations strained enough without this kind of gutter trailer trash TV inflaming them even more? They would have known it would cause trouble and let it go in order to boost their own ratings.

orionmojo Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 i get people at my work taking the piss out the way i talk,but it dont bother me, why's that? do you have a thick country accent?

ZetecVan 2.0 Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 i think its women being women meaning just being bitches not racist I discussed this last night with an indian friend of mine, and she said it's not racist. Bullying, yes. Racist no. The papers are saying they're taking the piss out of her accent by imitating her. Ok, so lets say for a second that she's a geordie actress and they don't get on with her, and they imitate her accent, is that racism? No. People bring race into the equation simply because one of the party is a different colour. They make it a race issue when it's not.
Mark2Mark Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Not Racist but deffo bullying which is just as bad! I think the best thing that can happen is to lock the house concrete over the whole area and carry on with our lives safe in the knowledge that theses "Celebrities!?" or OXYGEN THIEVES to give them their proper title can not offend our eyes or ears anymore CELEBRITY Big Brother? C4 should be done under the trade descriptions act!
Tom Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 did you see on the news about the people in india burning likeness's (sp) of the BB bosses
S2 Dee Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Like most people here I have only read the quotes in the papers and seen clips on the news. From what I have seen and read, it is just jealousy and ignorance particularly on behalf of that Jade doris; from what I can fathom she is a celebrity on the back of being ignorant. Not sure who the other people are. The media have blown this out of proportion, no wonder the world is up in arms. Why it needs Tony Blair and other members of the Government to get involved is beyond me, surely they have better things to do like finding another way of fleecing motorists. Fook me the news is on and I just heard that Jade has a perfume out and has made millions, Christ what is the world coming too; the sooner this rubbish goes away the better. As for calling her a dog, they should go take a look in a mirror.
Jelly Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Its not racist to refer to someone as "white trash". Apparently.
mk2_escort_chick Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Apparently The Caphone Warehouse has pulled its sponsorship from BB, which to me says a lot. I do watch Big Bro (not every night due to work). I feel that the attack on Shilpa wasn't a racist one. Its just girls being bitchy. Jade has her lil gang, consisting of herself(claims to fame: bb, jades salon and jade's pa-all relaity poop! oh and her relationships, fake fitness video and her boobs), danielle(what is she, what does she do?) and jo (some 90's/00's reject!). I dont particularly like Shilpa, but I feel the way she's being treated is rediculous!
Jelly Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 That Danielle's Miss Liverpool, I think..
Mark2Mark Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 That Danielle's Miss Liverpool, I think.. I'm gutted for you that she is representing your city
