From the early stages of "get me out", I thought that Kendra might be playing to the camera's. She didn't miss an opportunity to either do or say something that might lead the cameramen to focus on her. As against Vicky/Michael/Tinchy. Being selected to do the first trial, gave her the opportunity to "do a Helen Flanagan", and her repeated "oh my god" seemed over excessive.

Then to waste time when there was a need to start the trial, was frustrating in the least and I began to think two things (1), either she hasn't been told what to expect or (2), knows full well that by failing constantly, would give her air time.

When she did succeed, with 10 stars, I couldn't help thinking either it was fixed, or she was now aware we might be suspicious and had better try something else to give her air time.

Then came the time someone else did a trial and rather than sit and wait like everyone else, decided she'd swing the camera back to her and relate her American reality show thinking she could make it last, but some campers saw through it.

When did the likes of Tinchy, allo allo, or Michael hold the cameaon them for so long?. It's not because they're boring as I am sure they have much they could tell.

No, I firmly believe she is a crafty sod who should be expelled at the first opportunity and take her temper with her.

Without being cheeky she does not edit the show and the h/l's show when she was talking about her own reality show she was not responsible for that making the h/ls there is plenty of other things the Producers could have shown. IMO you your issue is with the show's producers and not Kendra. There is nothing wrong with not liking her but I am sick of the comments that she is playing to the cameras as it is the shows decision to put on the h/l's what they want to and not what Kendra wants. Again imo there are people in the camp are playing to the cameras i.e. Jimmy and Mr Burke.

It was an excellent opportunity for me to lose respect for those soppy girls who soaked up Kendra's melodrama. Would they have been asking the TOWIE girl "What's going to happen next in Towie?". Probably. Very disappointing.

Lol you're being so unreasonable in how you expect other human beings to behave.

For starters, I doubt she knows anything about Helen from last year. Second, in American reality shows to win you have to do well in the trials because that is what the public there like. In her mind that is most likely what she thinks she should do to win. Her thanking people for voting her to do the trials is proof in itself about how clueless she is when it comes to british reality TV.

Thirdly, what kind of delusion is this that there is some camp agreed rule to sit in silence while others are taking part in the trials? Maybe she did talk about her show for a bit of promo, but at the same time I suspect it's very boring in there and that many things will be spoken about. She shouldn't be shamed into silence on anything.

Every year people overestimate the intelligence and cunning of these celebrities. Very few people ever fully "play a game" in these TV shows beyond the general watching what you say and how you behave, which applies to us all at some point.

So no, the OP's post is completely unreasonable and illogical.

Do you really think that (BIB)

Do you honestly believe she's flown all this way without know anything about the show and how it works?

I certainly don't - her agent will have done some careful/extensive research and they will have planned a strategy - from a financial perspective it really doesn't matter whether she wins or loses but it really is all about maximum exposure. The tantrums the trials the titillating anecdotes - all planned very carefully before she went in.

You might find her anecdotes titillating, I find them rather vomit inducing and they cause me to think about shrivelled up worms.

The way she is at trials and in her personal revelations does seem planned at times and I agree it's almost a definite that a star known only for reality TV will have researched the show.

For my part, I think it's a pity as when she is acting according to some reality TV plan she's boring. She is boring on the trials and her sparing anecdote about her life, leaving us hanging because it hasn't been aired yet was boring. However, when she is just being natural I quite like her. She seems sweet and basically nice on occasion.

Maybe she should have just gone for natural and could have won some fans and supporters but I suppose after her career in reality TV that isn't even possible for her any more

Yes, I think that too. She'll have researched it thoroughly - or her agent will have - in order to get the maximum exposure (not to mention fee) from the show.

At times? I think she rarely makes a move that isn't planned. Still, since her whole life is one long reality show she probably doesn't know how else to be. I dislike her intensely but part of me feels sorry for her.

I thought it was a vote to save or is it wishful thinking.

If she receives the fewest votes, she is effectively voted out. That is obviously very difficult for a lot of people around here to understand.

There is no need to be confused it so last year. Most reasonable people would understand the difference between voting to save someone and voting to evict someone.

Just vote for all of the other 9 excepting Kendra if it is so hard to understand.
