I'm not sure how "Well, others say it too" is a decent defense (or who it somehow makes the person in question less outrageous). Others saying equally offensive things doesn't absolve one person of offence caused, it makes them all as bad as each other. If "loads of people" casually call for more innocent deaths, they're all as bad as Hopkins. If Gervais and Carr tell those jokes (and I'm unfamiliar with their routines so I'll take your word for it), they have an equally horrid sense of humour as Hopkins. All of that changes nothing in regards to how unpleasant Hopkins is.

Nice generalisation there. I'll speak for myself though thanks. I'm certainly no "professional complainer", I simply loathe unpleasant people, of which KH is a very public example.

I've also found the "faux outrage" thing to be highly overused on here nowadays (it must be rivalling "vile" at this point). It's like some people find it utterly impossible that people could be genuinely angered by something. Again, speaking for myself, my annoyance at some of her comments is absolutely genuine.

Hey, if she's "just being honest" (as some of her fans love to trot out endlessly), surely the same goes for those stating a negative opinion of her? Surely people are just as entitled to air their opinions? Though, with the current reaction towards Nadia, I've found it's one rule for KH and another for everybody else.

If nothing ever bothers you, fantastic, good for you, but it's a weak argument to suggest (based on nothing, naturally) that the annoyance demonstrated by others must be false, simply because it doesn't bother you.

Though, on the subject of being offended "on behalf of others", you seem to be getting defensive on behalf of Hopkins right now (to the point where you flat out insult those who dislike her). Funny, that.

If you were expecting Katie to be like her outside persona, making remarks about people (but for 24 hours a day in BB), then you should have been prepared to be disappointed. No one could keep that up all the time.

She seems much more grounded and "normal" than I thought she'd be.”

Must have missed that. Can you elucidate?

I was expecting SOME personality and not a damp squid.

Actually we saw a whole hour of just live feed and she did nothing worth discussing or repeating. I guess some people enjoy watching someone sit and scowl or smirk and nothing more. I personally don't find it entertaining.

Not sure what dig you are referring to. It's a bit baffling though that anyone enjoying Katie would have any issues with anyone making digs at anyone else. It's all she does, when she has enough time to think up something. So far she's only managed to do a bit of smirking and showing how jealous she is of Perez who IS what she would like to be. You know a world wide source of bitching and gossip, one that is known world wide and not just in her own backyard.

I'm sure loads of people in Germany cared not about the death camps or the treatment of Jews, disabled et al and laughed heartily at the JOKES printed at the time of Jews portrayed as rats ect. So that makes the holocaust all right then?

Don't forget making stupid faces, I noticed her seething jealousy of Perez also how she glared in the fairytale task at his being mentioned as the hated blogger.

Yep, we should all run our ideas past YOU before we post, seeing as you've been here for all of two *^**ng months, 'n all.

ENOUGH!! ENOUGH!! ENOUGH!!

Other than that outburst, what else has she done?

She's fake and fooling a lot of people.

Some absurd generalisations there which I doubt you could support in any convincing way.

And Gervais and Carr might be successful, but to suggest they are 'most loved' is remarkably unlikely.

How can you possibly comment on everyone who has taken issue with Katie Hopkins? They are not all the same, you have no idea who they are, and your argument is simply weak and silly.

It's funny. She went in so cockily, but then saw her thunder stolen from her by others, and was left stunned. She's used to polite people inviting her on their shows and then gasping as she robotically sends out her insults. But on this show she's surrounded by people even worse than she is, or people who are impervious to her insults. All that's left is that shiny beak of a hooter and those dazed-looking eyes. I bet she's also worrying about her career outside: no one will employ her as 'Nice Katie,' because Nice Katie would just be an untrained TV presenter/performer who is nice about things, and there's practically no market for that (unless Lorraine Kelly retires). So she needs to emerge still as Nasty Katie, and she's going to struggle to seem that nasty in there.

Katie is an absolute joke. She is a keyboard warrior too afraid to say what she thinks to peoples faces. No sense of humour. No off-the-cuff remarks, because she doesn't have her team of writers with her. She is just a boring stuck-up fart.

If Katie's dull that leaves no adjectives to describe Kavana.

She's a hack. Hacks do easy attention seeking stuff that really has no substance but pivots on your ability to say or write it loud enough. Hacks tend to shrink away from their crafted persona in real natural human interaction because there's nothing real to it. They just said it to get your attention good or bad.

To a tee. "She's used to polite people inviting her on their shows and then gasping as she robotically sends out her insults" brilliant!!

She seems to have a mouth on her in the diary room.
However, she's either biting her tongue, or (as most suspect) she's just a troll, who makes a living by spouting sh*te that she knows will offend and hurt sections of society.

Saying that, didn't like her at all when she was on The Apprentice. I doubt it's all an act.

If she carries on like this has she basically ruined her reputation?
She wasn't liked before, but at least she was relevant...

She will soon be her normal media savvy self.

She is biding her time until she shows it.

It would have been wasted with all the goings on with Jeremy and Ken.

She wouldn't have had any airtime.

Now they are gone she will start on people..

She winds up to the dreadful Nadia/Perez duo- a crucilly important role at the moment.

She is that worst kind of passive aggressive coward. She will say something as long as she has someone else to hide behind.

Hideous Hopkins is the dullest person in there.
Being horrible and a bully doesn't count as being entertaining in my book.
