Whether you love her or hate her, I think she's got a point.

Why did they let her pay £6,000 for the table then?
And out of interest, why can't you blame them?
I quite agree. Everyone knows the sort of people that these types of events attract - and she clearly does not fit in with that profile - regardless of how much she may aspire to.
Does she think because she rides a horse, she would be accepted by the toffs who go there?
I hope she get's her six grand back though.
They shouldn't have let her pay the £6,000 but if she truly wanted to go she could have sat with everyone else rather than in the VIP section.
And with her plans to call her horse 'The B****cks' to cause controversy http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/showbiz/a117252/price-gives-horse-controversial-name.html I don't blame that at all.
This is a perfectly valid topic of discussion for the GD Forum. :cool:
Nothing - that is a sub-forum of the showbiz forum I was directing the poster to.
I'd like to pick up on this line in the story:
She probably had a 'ghostwriter', but I've got no doubt that she knows her stuff when it comes to horses.
She's a 'ballsy' person who won't let anybody tell her what to do.
But, maybe she should leave the modelling industry and concentrate on a professional career with horses.
I'm sure she would gain a lot of credibility.
Well I see you've got your way and it's been moved.
But I thought it was valid discussion for the GD section, since we're not talking about "Jordan" per se. My original intention by posting this thread was to see what people's feelings were on such snobbery.
If that makes me a snob, then I'm proud to be one.
It shows even the 'posh' can be bullies
She paid £6000 for a table? Considering she told the press a while back she was a 'billionairess', (yeah, right) that small sum should be a drop in the ocean to her.
Her claims that she's met with Royalty or been asked to appear in the Horse of the Year show should be taken with a whole mine full of salt IMO.
Call me a snob, but I wouldn't ask her to a barbie in my back garden, let alone a classy event like Cartier polo if I had anything to do with it.
No, Pricey, you're just a chav sex symbol, hardly classy.
Reminds me of the time she was on the Paul O'Grady show and she told him her show was watched by 600 million in the USA. So thick as well as vulgar.
Why does everything in our society have to be dumbed down as that it's accessible to the lower chav denominator?
Except she has admitted she does not write her books at all.
I play polo ,and it is not over run with "snobs" ( that is stereotyping rubbish ), it is populated by people with some good manners and an level of erudition, mostly (though there are exceptions to that after a few too many) .
She is THE snob who wants to be seen in what she thinks is the "upper elite snob class", or have people missed this point.?
Personally, I think it's the organisers who had the valid point! Talk about bringing down the tone
