who's a one armed lesbian?

Jade Goody's mother.

This news just in: Carphone Warehouse have pulled out of sponsoring Celebrity Big Brother because of the outcry over some of the participants' behaviour, and The Perfume Shop has said it will no longer stock Jade Goody's perfume range.

Mind you, I remember something similar happening when Kate Moss' cocaine use was splashed across the newspapers, and she's still doing okay for herself.

as shameful as their behaviour is it is good that this sort of thing is being brought to the fore.
did anyone see widdecome vs the hoodies thing the other day? i kicked myself for missing it, even though being that it was on itv it was probably shite.

true.

so will she be boo'd when she leaves the house, or will they have no crowed incase there is a sniper in there?

yeah, but cocaine is different to racism

Whichever way it goes,i can't see her going to scrub school floors anytime soon.The problem with the press that mostly pushes these (in)famous creatures is that it is just as bad as the people it puts down when there is an outcry for some stupid and misguided remark.

Ive watched only one or 2 episodes of this series, were those comments about "Indians are thin..." and "Go back to the slums" actually broadcast?

The whole thing down to the individuals involved, im sure Channel 4 will not have known that they had a tendency to say things like this when they signed them up.

Its very interesting that they so blatantly just came out and said something and (so far as i know) didnt think "Hey that sounded quite bad, thats not what i really think, maybe i should apologise". Doubtless when they leave and see the furore there will be swift and sweeping apologies from all.

I'm sure that they arent racists, trust me i know what proper racists are like. Maybe a good thing people can take from this is that you shouldn't misrepresent your views by saying things you don't mean, even if you dont like someone and youre in a heated arguement.

and Kate Moss is different to Jade Goody, in the way Evian Spring Water is to Battery Acid.

Oh!It was Kate Moth's birthday 2 days ago and according to the free London Paper she went to 5 different drinking dens in 1 night!Party girl!

i actually like Kate Moss, absolute dickhead of a boyfriend though.

that is true.
i haven't watched any of the big brother shows, but i've read about this racism controversy in the paper.
i reckon this is just what the organizers are wanting. the idea of the show (i could be wrong) seems to be to try and create an accurate yet entertaining microcosm of britain and british culture. and so far, they seem to be doing pretty well.
personally, i don't like the whole scandal this has caused. watching a man on channel four news telling us how this will provoke a gigantic surge of racism amongst teenagers, could he be anymore condesending and patronising?
just because some no-hope cretinous hack torments an indian on t.v, the whole of youth culture will follow in her footsteps, apparently.

The worst thing they ever did was a few years ago when theyd had the really boring one that Kate Lawler won the previous year, so they got a load of arguementative and obnoxious self aggrandisers (even by reality TV standards) in, and engineered that fight - When the 2 girls were out for a couple of days and could hear everything being said, and were then reintroduced in a flurry of alcohol to pick fights with the people they didnt like. It was scary the way the TV producers manipulated the situation.

^ The worst thing about that particular affair was that another contestant, Nadia, actually hit someone but got off absolutely free, presumably because she ticked to many PC boxes.

This is still fun to talk about the Big Brother racism scandal, isn't it, Max?

Yeah, it sure is, Conan, it sure is.

The thing is that in this instance, it wasn't in the heat of an argument; it has been deliberate and persistent. That's a major factor in the controversy.

yeah, just because it isn't violently confrontational and the contestants are too stupid to realise the implications of what they are saying doesn't mean it isn't racist

its bollocks. there is and has been no rascism in big brother. just 3 skanger girls who feel intimitated by someone who has shedloads of poise, elegance and dignity... shilpa aint no angel, i see her as a bit 2 faced but the 3 amigos are really thick, dumb and childish....

rude yes, racist no!

its stupid, but i still watch it always!!!!

i mean if 2the indian" comment is racist. whats gonna happen to apu nahasapeelapetalaan???? "chutney butt" "curryface" "thank you come again" etc etc etc

yeah!!

go Pauly

and danielle is teddy sheringhams missus. i mean, imagine waking up beside that every day, teddy i mean!!!!!

oh teddy teddy... teddy teddy teddy teddy spursshirton, oh.......
havent sung that in a while!

Just as a side note, I was thinking of another reason why the people behind Big Brother were wrong not to take the three bullies to task over their behaviour: the three could have been shown very clearly what they where doing and given the chance to make amends. It's possible that they don't realise quite how tasteless and repulsive they have been, and they may have realised that they should change their ways. By denying them that chance, the BB team have ensured that they will leave the house to a great deal of scorn and hatred.

Oh, bullies of a racist persuasion deserve all the scorn that's coming to them. Especially these thick bitches.

Possibly, possibly. I abhor all bullying, but they should be given just one chance to repent their sins first.

I'm sure they've been given enough changes outside of the house preceding this series of the show.

apparently one of the girls being accused of the comments thought that saddam hussein was a boxer. this girl was then voted for being one of the most influential people in the world by "heat" magazine.
the world is mad. MAD!

Quite possibly. But a bit of public humble pie would do them no harm, and might show the less intelligent members of the public, who are no doubt ordering their bottles of Jade's perfume as we post, that they need to waken up to their own stupidity. If the three creatures fail to repent, then we know for sure that we're within our rights to deal with them in the appropriate way.

Jade. Being foul-mouthed, overbearing, loud and rude has made her a multi-millionaire, such is the culture of chav idiocy that stains our land.

You're quoting 'Heat' magazine. Haha.

The world has indeed gone mad, but I think Britain is worse than everywhere else in terms of celebrity culture. Who the fuck are these people, anyway? The only person I recognize in the line-up is Faceman from The A-Team, and that says a lot about the whole show anyway.

Seb: Way to get post number 69! I am thrusting the air comedically as we type.

Jade Goody's head should be paraded around Trafalgar Square like an inner sin that a nation is suffering for her.Her legs should be fed to the many starving pigeons that ask no more than a lonely tourist's company.Her teeth should be donated to a museum of useless mankind that keeps a record of the wrong that humanity feels like showing to itself in order to feel alive.

Like I always say,

better people have been shot dead.

That reminds me of an excellent quote, supposedly said by a mate of William SHakespeare's after a good night on the piss: The constable is an arrogant rogue. I have been at the cutting of a thousand better men's throats than his. And I hope to live to be at the cutting of a hundred thousand better men's throats than his within this city..

Way off topic, but Danny...

Whats with the Applebee's swag?

I am promoting various restaurants for no particular reason. I used to promote Denny's.

The long awning outside one of the restaurants in the village blew off today.

We can only hope this is the fate of all Applebee's restaurants.

Thats right Danny, now I remember. Whats next?

a cult of idiocy surrounds the country at the moment, filled with lots of stupid, culturally aneamic people of which some of whom are famous. they've all got their heads so far up their own arses they don't bother looking at what's going on around them.
it annoys me greatly. fuck.

Subway.

Perhaps you could be the patron of a series of small independent restaurants for a while? I imagine they'd appreciate the extra advertising.
