I still think the only reason most people dislike Katie H is all down to her justified comments about fat people.
I think by making those comments it has hit home hard to a lot of fat people and a lot of people who have loved ones who are fat. And even to people who have a hobby of defending anyone who is apparently offended.
As a result of that, I think pretty much everything she says or has said is then blown out of all proportion by those people simply because the fat comments have had such an effect.

Nadia is a prime example. A larger woman who has had weight issues for years, I think the only reason she has an almost pathological dislike of Katie H is all down to that one issue.

That's my opinion tho, I'm sure many will disagree and obviously some flat out just won't admit to this being the main reason for the dislike of Katie H.

I don't agree with everything she says. I'm working class and I'm not down with her snobbery, but I'm also aware enough that I don't have to dislike someone simply because they say a few things I disagree with.

The fat comments were spot on in my opinion.
The issue of obesity is probably THE main concern in the country today, and the simple fact is that to lose weight is very simple (unless you are a rare case with some kind of medical condition).
Eating a bit healthier and exercising a bit more. It seems simple but people really do need it hammered into them and I think Katie H has done a fantastic job of getting the issue debated.

Katie H's issue with the whole thing was that she's sick of very overweight people moaning about being overweight and saying how hard it is to lose weight.
But you just need to motivation to make a bit of effort to do it. If you don't, it is quite simply your own fault.

I'd like to lose a couple of stone myself, but for me it's not a priority in life and I certainly don't go around moaning about wanting to lose weight.

a very narrow and shallow interpretation on why people dislike Hopkins. For starters she is a class snob who doesn't believe in social mobility. Believes the rich and privileged are intellectually superior. Believes they should avoid paying taxes while the safety net in society for the most vulnerable should we whipped away. This of course is driven by her inability to feel empathy, a natural human emotion. Her attention seeking targeting of fat people is such a small part of what is objectionable about her.

Well that clearly isn't true when she's clearly shown emotion in the house and got upset and angry over the treatment of others.
But then you'll just say she's putting it on or something so it's impossible to have a rational discussion about this.

What about Katie H as a HM on BB ?
Or is it impossible for some to rid their concrete opinion of her prior to going into the house?
She can't win in that case.

It's big boned.

Nothing to do with inactivity, shitty food and ignorance in a massive percentive of overweight people.

They are just big boned.

I'm big boned, I wasn't until I started eating shitty, fatty food.

You believe she really gave a toss about Alexander? Nothing to do with the fact it was an opportunity to target Perez who challenged her early on about her marriage wrecking.
Hopkins has said herself she doesn't do empathy.

Either Hopkins has been badly bullied as a child or been neglected, her attitude to life and others stinks to high heaven.. she hasnt a decent bone in her body and only softens when she gets a compliment and even then I dont trust her..

I'm not fat, neither am I ginger, unemployed, Scottish etc., etc., etc.,


Still don't like her.


p.s. I sound rather boring

That's the kind of thing others accuse Katie H of doing- making unfounded accusations !
She's pretending all the the time,it's what she does,----- but in the House ,she's been a great HM to watch love her or loathe her ! I don't know who can deny that !

I think she did care about Alexander to a certain extent, or certainly the way he was treated.

Of course she 'does' empathy. She says she doesn't because it's part of her pantomime villain portrayal.
After CBB she has to change tact because many people have now seen a different side to her.

The OP question was about comments she has made outside the house.


But if you want a comment on her inside the house she has been controlling, manipualtive, and bullying

Yeah, I didn't particularly like Katie H outside the house, but nothing she says bothers me personally - and sometimes she is spot on and funny -but as a HM I think she's been great,and if anything altered views of her for the better ! It's win win for her when she leaves the House !

I suspect she was disliked long before she got on the "fat" bandwagon. Don't know, don't care - she doesn't interest me as a social commentator.

Katie Hopkins as a HM has been terrible. She's behaved awfully. Let's not pretend peoples distain towards her is down to her controversial comments whether that be weight, race, baby names of a deathly illness Ebola! I'll be honest and say I didn't have a big opinion of Katie before she entered the house because of what I seen and heard from her. However I was willing to give her a chance and more than anything I wanted to be proven wrong. I was hoping that we'd see her with he guard down and thathe show would expose that she's not this monster and that underneath there was a good person. However my opinion of her has only changed for the worse and that's not anything to do with any preconceived notion I had of her but solely based on how she's behaved in that house. She's been vile.

Katie is a repugnant individual who is manipulating the house and the public. Her humour is caustic.

Im sure the lovely woman will find a niche for you when she comes out of the house....

I think Perez has brought out the worst in every HM in there
As was his intention.

The only thing that annoys me about her is they can be as accepting and as nice as they like to her and she will still be rude and insulting to them!. (Like she did with Alicia and Katie P).

She doesn't really give people a chance, once she's pigeon holed them there's no second chance with her. She's so caught up in her own opinions and judgements it becomes irrelevant to her weather they are a decent person or not.

The only thing that you said in that post that made any sense at all was the BIB.

You cannot speak for everyone, in fact you cannot speak for anyone else because all that you are capable of doing is giving your opinion.

This is the second post that I have seen in recent days where a Hopkins supporter has accused the rest of us of being fat or having fat relatives or some such silly reason.

I actually think that her fat comments are the least harmful of her venomous diatribe, fat people know they are fat and I am pretty sure they realise its bad for their health etc its all her other judgements that annoy me and the fact that she is hypocritical with it. I dislike anyone who places their judgement upon others particularly those who have the arrogance to think their opinion matters above everyone elses and I dislike hypocrites.

Oh and just one other thing - just because you say it, doesn't make it so

I'm not fat and I think she's superficial, one-dimensional, manipulative, scheming, stirring, domineering, arrogant and not terribly bright in most respects. On the Apprentice, she charmed all her housemates, while holding forth about her real and very different opinions behind their backs in candid secret interviews. That had a certain entertainment value, and that is something I thought she'd bring to the house. The program makers obviously thought the same, hence her first task. She sadly disappointed us all. She obviously wants to win, so she has been holding her tongue and playing the Jolly Good Sport and Best of British card for all it's worth in an attempt to win over the British public.

She spent the first couple of weeks trying to give the impression that under the flinty facade there beats a soft heart. I don't believe it for a minute. She is a callous, self-interested go-getter and I wonder if the reason for her shortcomings is linked to the fact that she is missing a portion of her brain.

If her hateful and venomous bile were only directed towards the obese then you might have had a valid point there Matt_Maher, however, KH's hostility is aimed at anybody and everybody whom she personally dislikes.

The saddest thing about KH in my opinion is that the one person she obviously detests more than any of the fat, ginger, Scottish/foreign, disabled, unemployed, illiterate or infirm people she berates, is herself and no amount of bear bating of others is going to help that.

sounds like your describing Nadia . Katie H could have kissed her feet everyday offered her all her money , and made her queen of England and it still wouldn't have been good enough for Nadia - she was determined to hate Katie at all costs thinking it would be what the pubic would want , a good queen , to Katie's evil one - sadly Nadia you very much misjudged

Katie H doesn't bother me outside of the house. I don't get offended by her remarks. I'm Scottish and overweight so should probably be foaming at the mouth by now. I'm not. She can say what she likes. Its only offensive if you want to take offence. I don't really have the time to pay attention to what she writes or to give her the reaction she wants.

As a bb housemate, however, she is one of the better ones this series. Yes, the childish goading of Perez does her no favours but at least she's putting herself out there to be liked or loathed. I'm more offended that the production team are falling over themselves to fix things for Perez. I hate the way he speaks to bb and appears to get away with it and don't think that someone as attention seeking as him should have the biggest task. I would be fuming if he were to win. If kh wins, that's OK. I'd rather it was Katie Hopkins than patsy or katie price, both of whom are just sitting there moaning while they wait for their cheque.

Ah now I understand.

I was wondering why my best friend won't talk to me any more. I thought it was something to do with the fact that I slept with her husband who left her so I told the authorities she now had a spare bedroom, so they kicked her out. I also thought it might have been something about me laughing at her disabled child when he keeps falling over, but now...thanks to you and your impeccable logic......I now realise that she doesn't like me any more because I once told her her bum looked big in her new jeans.

Phew...well that's cleared that up then

Except everyone bar cami-lee, has not acted out like she. I've also found her treatment of Nadia and Alicia really uncalled for. Hopkins has let the power go to her head and expose herself. No one, not Perez is, responsible for her blatent goading and attacking without provocation.
