I'm really disappointed in her TBH. I thought she was great the first few days - she seems to have a really nasty streak in her.

The whole 'I am the official spokesperson for the whole gay community and we do not want Perez because he is too camp' thing is so see through

Yes I have I really liked her the first few days. I have found her behaviour to Alicia to be quite mean-spirited. Also the comment about Perez letting the Gay Community down - it's almost like she wants to support the Gay Community but only on her terms. Perez does not behave like he does because he is gay, he behaves like that because he is Perez.

I feel pretty similar
I thought I was going to love her after my teenage son kept telling me how amazing she was but I feel disappointed that she's aligned herself so strongly with Katie Hopkins

Me. She is not the same person as week 1. I am hoping there is still time for her to turn it around again but I am doubtful while she remains part of Katie's mean girls gang.

I dont like the way she alone feels she represents the gay community.

Yes, I really liked her in the beginning. Aligning herself with the mean girls was a mistake but I thought she might be able to turn it around but it seems unlikely now.

I wonder whether she was just on her best behaviour in the early days.

She's been a good puppet master so far, setting her little attack dogs on Perez.

Finding her increasingly suspect, hypocritical, bullying and deluded...and I liked her before she went in.........................

I haven't gone off her, I don't see what all the negative posts are about. She's living in there, she's entitled to an opinion. Perhaps living with Perez 24 hours a day isn't easy, but even so she hasn't said that much.

Me she was my absolute fave a week ago.

Now I cannot stand her.

I'm completely disappointed in her. She seems to be giving something of a free pass to an undercurrent of homophobia in the house because Perez 'brings it on himself'. Well yes, he's probably unbearable but that's no excuse for homophobia. He isn't 'every gay man' and her suggesting he's put 'the cause' back 20 years just suggests that his behaviour is interwoven with his sexuality and *that* perpetuates stereotypes just as much as Perez does. It's like a guilty, tacit admission that his particular brand of prissy attention-seeking is somehow ingrained in the gay psyche.

Also, as a self-proclaimed 'protector' she should gravitate towards protecting Alicia, not berating her for not being strong enough for her liking.

Currently she's just facilitating Katie Hopkins obnoxious grandstanding and that on it's own is pretty lamentable. If she doesn't regain perspective and snap out of it soon I will have lost all respect I had for her.

Yes, very much so. She is so arrogant. Thinks she's the last word on everything, and that anyone who doesn't agree with her stance is just stupid, or not paying attention.

It's really irritating.

I feel exactly the same. I thought she was awesome at first but now I see that she's just a nasty hypocrite.

She put on a good face on the first couple of days and came over as fair, reasonable and pleasant - coupled with this there was a lot of positive vibes going around about her (I didn't know her TBH).

She's really plummeted now IMO - it's like her whole face has changed even - there is no softness - she looks and is now acting as hard as nails. Not nice at all.

And she's bossy and controlling. Even worse than Nadia. By telling Alicia that she shouldn't be friends with Parez. What's it got to do with her anyway who's Alicia's friends with in the house? It's not like she can join Michelle's group as Cami Lee hates her. At least Parez is nice to Alicia.

Just finished watching tonight's show. Yes, she continues to fall in my estimation. She was my strong favourite at first, then the cracks began to appear, and tonight she was one of the mean girls!

I'm quite disappointed in her choosing the monstrous Katie as a friend, but Michelle's still my favourite housemate. I'm fine with her whole gay championing - her heart's in the right place and I don't think she's been offensive at all.

Yes I am afraid so. I was seriously impressed with her for the first few days. Now not so much. Having said that I can't say I like any of them much now. In fact I am beginning to look a Jeremy with a fresh perspective and think maybe .. well perhaps not but .. well to be honest I have sort of given up trying to make any sense out of any of them or it. .

Yes, for the first few days I thought she was someone I could get behind and want to win with her speech about supporting the misfits. I thought she seemed like she would be fair in the house, but she's been anything but.

Yes I have. She was looking good to me for the first few days and I posted to say so.
But not now.
She isn't this rational person who I thought would try to see situations fairly and on their own merits as I thought she might be.

She was doing well. But when I saw her smirking when she heard the crowd cheers for herself I thought that this is only going to go one way.

Not at all.


I think people are exaggerating all of Michelle's bad points. She is friends with a lot of the housemates, not just Katie.


I still really like her.

I hate her whole self-appointed straight lgbt spokesperson shtick. As other posters have said, her implying that Perez behaviour is an embarrassment to gays is homophobic in itself. Plus when Alex over reacted to Perez's goading and ended up calling him a faggot, the way Michelle mildly told him off was only because she wanted to protect Alex's reputation, not point out that homophobia was wrong and irrelevant.

Initially I was on the fence about her, but now I have gone off her for all the reasons others listed above.
She had potential to be good but she couldn't keep the facade up and traits that I don't like keep coming to light.

Her credibility dropped after day 3 for me, I think.
