How in earth is this racist?
If this really was the case, how come we never heard about it when she was in The Luminites when they were on BGT?
Because it's The Sun. That's why.
They've probably hacked into her iPhone too.
Run the racist part past me, please? Or is any criticism of a person of colour racist?
They've been doing hatchet jobs on Chloe Jasmine for the past month? Is that a racist attack, too?
Racist against faux posh people.
Maybe because there were similar stories on Tamara last year, Emily something a few years ago plus bullying allegations against Misha B, so I guess there's a pattern there. Then again Cher Lloyd also attracted those kinds of headlines, so ....
I'm still new to DS but have lurked for a while and notice that the OP seems to always favour the black acts. That would make HER racist in some people's eyes ...
It is from The Sun as every year they try and dig dirt on one of the coloured or black contestants. Why people read it is beyond me.
Part of me is questioning the legitimacy of this story though because why didn't it come out when she was on BGT.
They also dig dirt on plenty of white contestants.
Let's see, we've had Katie Waissel with the previous record contract and hooker grandma, Kitty with the sex orgies with married men, Chloe with the drug taking, Lucie lying about where she comes from... all Sun exclusives.
The Sun rake muck. That's what they do, regardless of your colour.
This is the Daily Star basically reporting on the Sun on Sunday's story but you know still take it with a huge pinch of salt becase its The Star reporting on a story in the Sun
"The 20-year-old has led viewers to believe she was bullied at school and has said on the ITV show that she lacks confidence as she suffers with nerves.
However, her former schoolmate Stephanie Shaw claims she was a “horrible and spiteful” girl who threatened her and tormented her for FOUR years at Cheshunt’s Turnford School in Hertfordshire.
She told The Sun on Sunday: “She was the worst bully at our school. Steph made my life a living hell for four years.
“She’d say I was fat and threaten me. I went home crying again and again.”
She added: “I was terrified. She was known for starting fights.”
Stephanie Shaw also blasted the singer for telling ties about how she was teased at school for wanting to become a star.
“It’s a disgusting lie. People need to know the truth,” she said.

Tormented Stephanie’s claims were backed up by classmate Sam Gritton, who branded singer Steph an “intimidating b****”, telling of how she would throw stones at her and scream insults at her like “goth” and “lesbian”
“She even taunted that I had sex with my brother,” Sam said.
However, a source told the newspaper the X Factor hopeful is “completely devastated by these claims as she was so often the victim of bullying at school."
They added: “She’s putting all this behind her and focusing on singing, which is what she loves.”
Fans of The X Factor saw Stephanie – who previously appeared on Britain’s Got Talent as part of Luminites – blasted by the show’s judges last night after an underwhelming performance of Bread’s Everything I Own.
She’s currently the bookies’ favourite to be booted off the show first in tonight’s double elimination.
Daily Star Online has contacted an X Factor spokesperson for comment."
Because the story is a load of old tosh to be blunt.
Is it right to drag up someones past when they were not much more than a child so use that to judge them as an adult? People move on and change and harking back to their past life isn't really the way society should move forward
Just to clarify, I meant the poster that called racism, not the OP - doh!
They want her out and this article may just do it.
That's an unfair statement to make...Im not saying it was the case with Stephanie or Tamera but how do you know its a jealous school girl who "never got far". Fame doesn't equal getting far...they could be training to be a Doctor/Nurse or Police Officer or Fire Fighter all much worthier jobs than appearing on The X Factor (Among many other jobs).
We don't know whether these girls were bullied or not, just as much as its unfair to state we know Stephanie/Tamera are bullies its just as unfair to state that the supposed victims are lying
nom nom nom
I've said it before, I think the producers genuinely don't care anymore about secrecy concerning their manipulation the show. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if this story originated from The X Factor's PR team. Otherwise it's just usual The Sun rubbish that plays right into the hands of TPTB.
