Too many people keep talking and treating her like a little special needs child and telling her how great she is. and it goes to her head and she thinks that she's really special and she in return acts more like a special needs person and starts talking like a big baby!

I agree.
She gets to live in her own fantasy World because people (like Big Brother and the press/media) let her (so she has never grown up and lived in the real hustle bustle World she's too protected), but she is too dense to realise they are actually using her as a special needs child to gain ratings and make money out of her. People laugh at her, not with her.. I mean who wants to be famous for that? it is kind of sad..
It is actually patronising.
Obviously she does have mental illness so you have to make REASONABLE allowances, but this is too far/extreme the other way where she is given too much leeway to behave like she is with no awareness (so starts to believe her own fantasy World where everyone bows to her demands) - that isn't the real World and in the long run won't do her any favours as Big Brother and the press will chew her up and throw her away when she's no longer useful (I.E an old lady) and then she has to fight for herself in the Real World
She grew up with severe psychological problems and spent most of her childhood in hospital. The spoilt, diva-ish, princess attitude she is famous for (and I love her for) is because people do treat her like she's special, and go out of their way to help her. Anyone on the show or BBOTS who knows her talks about her like she's an adorable, special, breakable little thing. Everyone jumps to her defence and wants to look after her.
No sh*t that's where her personality comes from. Luckily for me, I love it.
To me it is cruel and unhealthy, I don't find it entertaining to laugh at someone like that.
Yeah, Princess Nikki part 2.
thats extremely offensive.
calling her special needs is the same as calling her retarded.
i've never heard baby talk from her. Helen? is that you??
Yeah she is just a head case. Seriously needs help.
It's not offensive at all.
there is such a thing as 'special needs' and you're the one who is infact being offensive because you're saying that all those special needs children are retards.
and I know you're not for real anyway. never heard Nikki talk like a baby!
she lives her life being one big baby because that's how she's treated all the time.
Yeah imagine fans in the street!?
That is the problem, she has got treated like this for so long..
I agree, it made me feel quite ill.
Of the legends that went back in she was still my favourite by default but there wasn't much point in her returning.
Nikki would always win the spoilt brat competition.
spidey didnt call nikki special needs
Nor do I think it is right that she can say what she likes to anyone and not be held to account.
Her need for approval and love stems from her illness. She's anorexic and they do tend to be childlike in some ways. Kindly people respond to that, much as they would to a young child. You're right - she is little and she is breakable. Some of the posts on here are horrible. Nikki is what she is and cannot help herself. Many people are protective of her because she is vulnerable. We should just enjoy the comic moments she gives us and let the rest go.
Then you haven't been watching Big Brother.
Since when does special needs = retarded!?
Offensive to who?
Sorry but she acts like one, not like a 33 yr old woman.
What are people to think.
