Big Brother Contestant Evicted For Racist Comment

[Steve R]

So much for "reality" then:

[ATS]

C4's actions only one series too late then

[Dace]

what utter drivel keith - I don't know where you get your "facts" from but having worked in and around bristol and the south west for a long time I can assure they are nothing of the sort on the whole - can't speak for everyone in the south west though, unlike you

[kinetic]

a set up? a chance for c4 to finally show some control? wonder what the viewing figures were up until this point?

[ATS]

Probably more than a grain of tructh in your cynicism Kinetic

Its great that a sociological experiment like Big Brother exposes people for what they are.

I cant determine without seeing the footage whether it was like the Paris Hilton incident where she was just singing to a rap songs lyrics of "mah bitchuz and mah nigguz" (Oh I can use that word by the way cos I'm half black LOL)

Anyway I imagine they are all on knee jerk reaction to the Shilpa incident so I'm not surprised they ditched her quick fast anyway.

I'm surprised they didnt have a racist word alarm go off. That wouldve been funny. Metal shutters coming down and the red lights going on with emergency yellow lights flashing and klaxons screaming.

I think its important that we distinguish between a flippant remark containing a racist word and racism on this subject - from what I can gather terry, you're spot on, she was using in the same context that a lot of the american rappers do
I think its appauling that Big Brother are using this teenage/early 20s girl as a scapegoat to excuse their earlier behaviour in the previous series

I've not watched any of it. I just know it's all female this year.

After the celeb BB earlier in the year, I can't believe someone would be so dumb...........unless it was taken as lyrics from a song, or out of context.

Maybe BB should have waited to see if anyone of black skin in the house complained? Did they? How media & tv works, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a setup, or they're just using her to make an example.

She was still pretty dumb though....
