Is Jade a Racist? [Big Brother]

[Spindryer]

From what I’ve seen i don’t think she is "imo". What she is though is loud and seems to have the knack of bypassing her brain with any words that come out of her mouth!

Anyone think she is a racist? Or even think she has done nothing wrong?

[carocat]

I was hoping that this forum wouldn't see a Big Brother thread. Damn you!

[Razor]

I wouldn't say she's racist but she is a foul mouthed plankton.

[carocat]

She is a genious business woman. Absolute genious. This is probably all planned.

[jodahunter]

I dont think she is a racist at all, i dont think the statement that has been the center of attention was racist. I think it's all been blown out of proportion and is bs.

[ScK ReVeNgE]

She is being racist, but not intentionally because I don't even think she knows what a racist is.

[jodahunter]

How is she being racist??

[Azure]

She is not a racist, she is overweight and ugly and has tried just about everything to lose it. She is accustomed to being treated like a princess since she got her dubious "Celebrity" status and cannot handle the fact that shampoo or whatever her name is actually has massive boobs a waist that looks like it is in a corset and long slender legs.

It doesn't help that she is an actual celebrity either. Jade just lashes out, I understand why she does it, but it doesn't change the fact shes a waste of space and thick as pig ****.

[carocat]

thick as pig ****.
I don't think she is tbh. She would have not made this much money and been that successful if she really was that dumb. No amount of advisers/PR could've gotten her that far.

She is very intelligent, just doesn't show it. My opinion anyway....

[BIG D 04]

In my view, just because you say something racist doesn't make you a racist.

People often say things when they are angry, frustrated or upset that you don't often mean. In saying that Channel 4 should of took the up hand and got rid of her although it may not be "a racist" some of what see said was and here bullying tactics should not be tolerated or supported.

Although it's a reality show so what do you expect, personally I don't watch the show and never will again (not a result of this) it's just be featured very heavily in the News of late.

[Cackhandedchimp]

She is a genious business woman. Absolute genious. This is probably all planned.

Nah, the people who marketed her to the masses, then skimmed a bit off the top are the geniuses. She's just a muppet.

[Raisedbyflames]

shes properly not a racist but shes a bully and thats just as bad

but she did say Eskimos witch is a racist term im suprised people arnt using this as fuel for the fire.

but been a bully is just as bad as been a racist in away its the same thing but focused on one person and not a whole race.

[Azure]

She is finished, she wont get anything good from this. There is no genius plan to come out of this one. Her perfume has been withdrawn from stores and she is going to be hated in the press.

She was the dumpy retard people felt sorry for and now she is the dumb bully, the press love nothing than to see someone reach and then fall, the press will do well out of this, she wont.

[MrKennedy360]

I do agree it has been blown out of proportion but that opinion is only based on what I've read in the newspapers as I've had no intentions of watching the show. I've seen some of the quotes and there is racist behaviour in that house and I think Jade Goody has effectively killed off her already dull career.

[gradinator]

I don't think she is tbh. She would have not made this much money and been that successful if she really was that dumb. No amount of advisers/PR could've gotten her that far.

She is very intelligent, just doesn't show it. My opinion anyway....

Jade is a lucky member of the general public, ie the general public wanted a hero of the working class to aspire too. She's an idiot whos made her money off the idiots who buy Heat, read the sun and buy her products because shes a lucky working class girl and they could be too maybe...

Personally I'd like to see her taken out of the house and shot infront of all her adorning fans.

The Indian gov has threatened to close down Channel 4's call centres! this means nothing compared to the viewer ratings they are getting.

What pisses me off the most was BB's ratings were at 3 million (ie the show may have been dying) now because of this racism row it's risen to 7 million.

Yes, I want to see BB fail and this reality tv to be the fad. I want decent scripted comedy back on my set and until then TV will decline and surfing the net with aspire...

[Hursti]

I don't think that she's racist, she just a big mouth that speaks her mind, although it might not be the right thing.

[Mazzy]

its all bollocks, it was some random comments that ch4 picked, out of what these "celebs" talk about in there day in the BB house, and put them together to make money out of what she has said, its a marketing ploy, and guess what .

IT WORKED !!

[Pie In The Sky]

I don't think she was being racist, at least not intentionally. I think the thing is that people in society today try to be sooo fair to everyone, that as soon as a white person insults a black person (or visa versa) people automaticly assume it's because of their skin colour. Jade obviously dislikes that other woman, and (not very tactfully) made it clear to her. People just assume that it is because she is of another race, which I think is in a way very unfair to Jade.
Having said that, Jade is an ignorant fat **** who doesn't deserve anyones time of day.

[Liam]

Didn't Jade call Shilpa, Shilpa Popadom or something? :eek: I think if she was racist, there are worse things that could have been said. I do really dislike Jade, she is probably the stupidest person that has ever been in BB. Also wasn't there riots in India where they were burning images of the big brother producers? :| Seems a bit extreme imo...

[Raisedbyflames]

i say hand jade over to the lynch mob we could all do with a laugth

[Spindryer]

I'm glad we are all on the same wavelength with this.

NO Jade isn’t a racist
YES Jade is an idiot
YES C4 Made this work in there favour

Poor Jade hey... Bollocks! She didn’t deserve the life style and money she had in the first place so I’m happy to see her lose it over night. I hope she makes a lot out of her next book deal, as it will be the last bit of money she makes for a loooooooooong while.

[Raisedbyflames]

yeah shes been exploited big style i doubt she has any cash from it

[VoyagerIsHere]

Yes - simple answer and the correct one.

She is a genious business woman. Absolute genious. This is probably all planned.

I think it's quite sick if it is. She isnt a genius - she has people who manage her. Surely the past week has proved this?

Im shocked how many of you view her as not being racist?! The comments she's made are completely out of order, harmful and dangerous.

[Spindryer]

No I don’t think it was planed in anyway BUT C4 knew Jade was out spoken and knew she was dumb so the blame should rest on their shoulders just as much as hers. I mean u put Jade in a house with Wacko Jacko's brother and your just asking for trouble let alone a Bollywood star that has a thick Indian accent to go with.

[jodahunter]

How is it racist voyager??

[VoyagerIsHere]

How is it racist voyager??

Definition
Racism is a form of discrimination based on race, especially the belief that one race is superior to another. Racism may be expressed individually and consciously, through explicit thoughts, feelings, or acts, or socially and unconsciously, through institutions that promote inequality between races.

Now have a think... Surely you cant be that ignorant to say that what Jade and the other two said isn't racist?!

[jodahunter]

Just go on voyager and point out to us the things they said that were discrimination based on race.

[VoyagerIsHere]

Just go on voyager and point out to us the things they said that were discrimination based on race.

Danielle Lloyd: "I think she should f**k off home."

Jade Goody : "Shilpa Poppadum"

I think the behaviour they have posed towards Shilpa is terrible.

[Razor]

Big Brother is reality TV and unfortunetly the reality of it is Danielle and Jade are racist so if they offend you watch BBC 2 or something :confused:

[Spindryer]

Danielle Lloyd: "I think she should f**k off home."

Jade Goody : "Shilpa Poppadum"

I think the behaviour they have posed towards Shilpa is terrible.


Okay first off "**** off home" so what? that has been said to me about 5,000 times and it actually can just mean: Go home - leave

Jade saying: "Shilpa Poppadum" is racist? - Wow...... It was a stupid thing to say not a racist thing. If I called you VoyagerIsHere Fish&chips would that be racist? Or what about if someone called me James go make a cup of T should i be offended?



As pie so rightly said:"I think the thing is that people in society today try to be sooo fair to everyone, that as soon as a white person insults a black person (or visa versa) people automaticly assume it's because of their skin colour"

[Azure]

It is just the hyperbole of white people being offended for coloured people. Hang on, isn't "coloured" meant to be racist these days as well?

I can't keep up with what is supposedly PC these days.

[Retro]

I have a black kid in my clan, who iv called a N***er loads of times. But im not racist. He loves it, he soaks up the attention like anything.
But im pretty close with him, and with plans to meet up soon. <gaysssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

And anyway its BB, who gives a ****.

[Mazzy]

what i laugh at, is that its totaly fine for some indian people to make a modle of jade and then burn it in the street, shoting about it and im sure saying things not too nice about jade, and i heard the word england in there too, (this was on the news).

wheres the PC in that?

[Pie In The Sky]

I have a black kid in my clan, who iv called a N***er loads of times. But im not racist.

Erm.... 'cause that's not hypocritical at all :rolleyes:

[Azure]

Not really, it is the intent behind the word that counts and although nigger is a racist word per say I hear all the asian people her ein preston call each other pakis all the time.

[Pie In The Sky]

Call each other.
Basicly my view on it all is that at the end of the day, the difference between black and white people is the amount of pigment you have in your skin. Judging people on that is pathetic and pointless, you might as well have a go at people with different coloured eyes to you.

[Retro]

Why the pancake is it hypocritical, its just a bleedin word, it can mean nothing or anything. You hear them all the time calling themselfs and friends it, you only have to listen to one of 50 cents tracks and you can see they are trying to promote it as a rank in society. When you walk down the road and see a group of black kids, you can see they think they are cool, and down with this gangster ****, calling each other the N word, there are encouraging people to call them it. People loved to be hated, people love to kick up a fuss about something, its how the world works.

[KninjA]

1. It was hardly a hateful comment.

2. Theres lots of worse stuff going on in the world, but still I'm subjected to this BS instead.

Its crazy.

[gradinator]

Well Jade thought it was racist and admits it's ruined her career

*smirks endlessly*

[Loserkid]

AAHHHHhhhh enough of the big brother! *gets C4 ready* rrarrgg!

i applied last year, got to the final round and got kickd out coz of the wheelchair! evil show!... anyway

i didnt see what happend, i heard she said * go back home*, maybe she ment the 1 outside of BB in uk? i dont know, i know how big brother hugely spin stuffs like mad first hand.

Personly i think jade is as smart as the dumbist animal thats been beaten over the head with meny ashtrays then had there brain taken apart for tests....but hay what i know? :D

*ps i think jade IS the dumbist animal ... contradictive and confuseing!*

[indiglojo]

I'm more disappointed that the bullying aspect of it hasn't had more emphasis, but then again BB/C4 has allowed this to happen a lot & its the main reason why I stopped watching it years ago.

[Black Magic Pug]

Jade = Retard , Im surprised she even knows how to breath by herself.
Calling Shilpa, Shilpa Popadom was a bit friggin stupid, and not having the common sense to see it could be constrewd as racism, and general stereotypicalling. just like DVD Piracy Ignorance is not a Excuse.
