Some posters probably feel intimidated if they want to support one of the less popular campmates and feel that their opinions are shouted down by the majority populists.

It is like anyone that wanted to support Jim Davidson on CBB that time, if you said one positive word, you were a sexist or a misogynist.

I like Kendra but certainly wouldn't dare to put my head above the parapet here.
That is such nonsense about Jim Davidson. He was always top of the polls on here. There is nothing more irritating than someone from the majority group trying to pretend to be an oppressed minority.

Sorry, I really didn't mean to irritate you.

Enjoy the show. May the best man win.

Not surprised at all. The jungle was just for publicity.

tbh am guessing ITV already agreed to Gemma just spending a few days in the Jungle , as am guessing TOWIE contracts were agreed well before the Jungle show , So the viewers have been played by ITV well and truly
Maybe TOWIE viewing figures were down so ITV created some drama to get people to watch
I wouldn't be at all surprised.
TOWIE isn't produced by ITV though. It's an independent production company. ITV just broadcast it.

No-one said it was. I don't understand your point.

Does she still get paid the full amount for I'm A Celeb even though she dropped out so soon?

she got paid a % and she told the viewers via This Morning show that she will donate her fee (said to be 40k ) to a children's charity.

I'll tell you what would totally surprise me - if she ACTUALLY donates her fee "to a charity for impoverished children"

Why not name the charity?? I'll tell you why.....because they would be looking out for it and notice if it didn't arrive.
I've contacted CAN management asking for the name of the charity. 'Starving children' is a little bit too vague don't you think? I'm sure it will be easy for them to pass on the name, after all, it's what you would do if you were genuine.

Sadly I think the show is going to be full of them now. ITV have set a very dangerous precedent now by not slating her publicly instead of letting her still belch lie after lie while giving her the limelight and more publicity on this morning.
Why did they not pull her on the interview about the filming and the presenting of the award evening.
I don't think you are going to get anyone of interest anymore,just self centred,egotistic desperadoes like Her. It's Craig Charles I feel sorry for. Having to put up with that vile person for so long and was contributing brilliantly to the show,but having to be forced to leave due to the very sad death of his brother. .
