Is the UK Big Brother Show Racist?

[GarudA]

I'm hoping that because Jade has shown herself to be an incredibly horrible and stupid human being on television. That this new found fame she has been having will just disappear and the public will finally turn their backs to her. Like they should have originally.

But damm she is UUGGLEEYY!!!

Everyone knew that from the first time she was in BB and she still became a millionaire out of it.

ROFL, nice one including that part


I think its safe to say the hysteria is getting ridiculous.

Always quote your sources, even when they don't want you want you to reproduce their words. I'm doing my bit to fight plagiarism.t:

Anyway, even if this show isn't racist, it is pure evil and must be destroyed.

im with you there racism or not, this Celeb BB has been the biggest load of Toast on TV in a loooong time. Celebrities indeed...

 

[FreeRadical]

Shilpa has actually said to one of the other housemates, Cleo I think, that she felt she has been racially discriminated.

Your move Channel 4.......

 

[Jamie Gold]

Yes I agree FreeRadical, BB bosses said because Shilpa hadn't complained of racism they didn't do anything, but now she has realised that it IS racism Channel 4 HAVE to act. If it was football they wouldn't get away with it.

I think Shilpa is one tough lady to withstand all that. They call her stuck up, yet she cooks for them and cleans and doesn't resort to playground tactics. She's elegant, modest, and civilised. You go girl.

Hell, she even speaks better English than me!

And by the way for those who don't think it is racism, I think Danielle saying Shilpa should "f*** off home" is the nail in the coffin. I'm actually so annoyed with how those girls are acting, I'm amazed at how silly they are going on national TV and saying such things!!! And they totally haven't clicked onto the idea of racism, yet Jermaine noticed ages ago.

Plus, Jade didn't like it when Shilpa said "Your claim to fame is this! Good for you!"

I'm from Canada, so I'm not a expert on UK celeb culture, but this looks the UK equalent of "Dancing with the Stars" or "Celeb Boxing". let us have a moment of slience for Dirk Benedict, he should have done what Dwight Schultz did, stay in the US and do voice acting.

Reality television is to blame for all of the worlds problems, if you got rid of it AIDS, Creationism, Britney Spears and Tom Cruise would all magically disappear.

Ahem brother, ahem.

 

[Kaleb]

They busy talking about it now on sky news

 

[Fried Gold]

I don't really have the time to watch this crap. I'm too busy vomiting profusely as a direct reaction to Jade Goody's celebrity status.

 

[November Rain]

In all honesty, who really cares what a few people are doing within a house, it's just a microcosm of society as it is at the moment, they could have easily gotten a middle eastern/islamic person in and it would have been ten times worse!!!

These things happen all the time in everyday life, people using whatever they can in order to cause spite towards another person. Why is everyone causing a fuss when it occurs on the big screen. Futher more, why is channel four airing this if not only for the sole purpose of getting viewers, they aren't being responsible with the footage they are releasing but i doubt they can be held responsible for corrupting society and showing this sort of behaviour is acceptable.

but what can one expect when you place ignorant *****y people in an environment to live with others? This thing happens in boarding schools aroudn the country, especially in female ones.

that's what little girls do...

 

[Kaleb]

I blame the media for hyping this up and putting everyone into a frenzy,if anything they themselves are promoting racism,including the newspapers in india that reported this.

 

[November Rain]

it's obviously a money spinner, just like anything to do with 'terror' was a few years ago and also anything to do with Lady Diana...

the root of all this is simply the ability to make money.

after seeing the news coverage i didn't think it was racism just childishness but after watching the show itself its pretty clear its racism. The amount of complaints show this country in a good light- its just jade and her idiots that brimg themselves down

 

[Spoarz™]

I absolutely hate reality TV.

Oh, why are you exporting this evil to our shores?

^the good old british empire- a culture of sharing

 

[chamber-music]

I don't think its racist just ignorance. I mean its not like those girls have got anything to boast about. You have a washed up teenie bopper popstar, A woman who is famous for being stupid and worst of all a footballers gold digging girlfriend who has no talent at all.

Atleast Shilpa has career. The rest are a bunch of losers.

Canada is a member of the Common Wealth, we don't deserve this kind of abuse. Don't we get credit for Vimy ridge or something. We don't export our bad Canadian TV to the UK (and trust me there is a lot of bad Canadian TV). Export more good stuff, like Hugh Laurie.

 

[Two-Face]

Big Brother show was crap when it first started. I wish that C4 would take it off air.

 

[Kaleb]

The only one I recognize on that show is jade ,I have no clue who the others are.

 

[Outsiderzedge]

This thread is so bizarre. Its like a normal thread that you'd see americans make but then you realize its about some small insignificant country that no one but the people living there really care about. British people are too cute.

You never watched the A-team? Or heard of the A-Team?
