Just keep feeding into the Katie Hopkins publicity machine, keep putting money into her hands and stop her from having to get a real job

I think people need to realise that it's part of her act. Her words are not meant to be taken literally. It is a form of humour, a form of entertainment. She's no different to a Frankie Boyle or any other controversial comedian. She just uses a different platform to perform her material.
I see were your coming from and your entitled to your opinion.......no offence

She has passed comment on people with ginger hair and yet two of her children have ginger hair. I think that just sums it up. It's all part of an act which is not meant to be taken literally.

I totally agree with you here. I just don't take her seriously because it is part of her act in my opinion. I certainly wouldn't get riled up by anything she says.

Was sending a stick figure to her anorexic stepdaughter part of her act too?

OK I'm going to call you out here Rufus. You cannot possibly believe that. She is a wannabe politician - she stood as an independent in 2007 but lost spectacularly. I'm betting this is a cunning run-up to a return. Although I doubt even Farage would touch her with a barge pole. If she wants to be a comedian she's going to have to up her game considerably. Being actually funny would be a start.

There's a reason why she is the highest earning housemate in the history of CBB, reportedly earning 500k. She is one of the most discussed media figures in the country. Everyone seems to have an opinion on Katie Hopkins. It has made her a very wealthy lady. I suspect she will probably win Big Brother and her career will continue to go from strength to strength.

Is she really? Do you have a link to that conclusive information? I haven't read that anywhere at all. In fact, I'm sure someone said she'd been begging to go on there for so long they just gave in eventually. Career? That's a very grand word for what she does. There's a woman a few streets down from me that also has a 'career', mostly working nights. I have more respect for her than for Hopkins.

There's various reports if you do a basic search.

This article suggests she was offered a record fee, even more than the £400k Kellie Maloney earned. I thought I heard or read somewhere that the figure was £500k.

oh well good for her. I still have more respect for my local whore - she at least doesn't have any pretensions of doing anything other than providing a service. KH is another type of whore, a media whore who is utterly self-serving and, in my opinion, deserves nothing except contempt.

Or maybe she is just a nasty piece of work, even to her kids.

I'm actually surprised she is popular with the mob outside. She has frequently attacked the working class, the unemployed, fat people etc and yet the crowd have her as some sort of people's champion. I don't have the slightest problem with her or her outspoken opinions, but it's curious that the baying mob outside would love her.

George Orwell's Big Brother came full circle. The fat hate the gingers, the southerners hate the northerners, the gingers hate the unemployed blah blah blah. Find the lowest common denominator and work it. Oh and of course she stands for the whole anti-pc thing and, as we know, everybody is fed up with that and wants to go back to the good old days when we could call a P*ki a P*ki. I mean, where's the offence in that? I don't know, freedom of speech is gone etc etc etc

One theory is that the mob's hatred for Perez is a factor in Katie being popular with them, but as Patsy pointed out, the two of them are actually very similar.

Can't believe people are falling for this crap, she's going to be laughing so hard when all the people she slates, vote to make her their winner...You couldn't make it up!

Cue This Morning interview where she tells them that the Great British public are as stupid & predictable as she thought....

That same interview where she goes on about not liking children with geographical names, yet her own daughter is called India

Careful now - we are the mob too. We're watching, judging, hating, liking.... Let's not pretend otherwise! Yes, a lot of posters on here have brought up the similarities between Perez and Hopkins and really, when you think about it, it's clear how alike they are. Fantastic stuff!! We are urged to tear to the last shreds two very similar people. Orwell couldn't have made it up. I'm kind of depressed now

I can never remember a BB where there were two such huge characters who were at war with each other and totally dominating the house. If there was any justice, they would be the top 2

Her words are not meant to be taken literally. It's part of her act. Both her children are ginger. And you would never hear her insult the British public as one the way Perez did. She passes comments on various social groups but not the actual British public as one.
That is the weakest defence of a position I think I have ever seen in my life lol

Exactly! She will have been advised by managers/agents that controversy sells. And it does. I only watched this CBB because she was in it. I wanted to see for myself if she was really that awful. I'm glad to say, she's proved herself to be an okay person.

My thoughts exactly. All she needs is Uncle Rupert to sign off on it and she'll be in Parliament in no time.

Personally I think she's more ambitious than that and will be co-opted by the Tories to attract UKIP supporters. But she'd have to tone down her statements and tow the party line. She's ambitious so she'll do that especially if her unthought out, childish points of view morph into social and political policy.

People truly don't get what they're contributing to. You are used everyday in ways that you would assume irrelevant. They're not. They break down your sense of right and wrong to what's popular and unpopular. A Daily Mail red arrow/green arrow society. She'll get in on the back of that and the weakest in society will be the strongest targets.

People may think we're joking but think about: a highly ambitious successful politically minded 'journalist', popular with 'the common folk' (serfs) and backed by Rupert Murdoch. She's already at the pinnacle of her shtick. A lazy person would keep it going until she retires.

Katie Hopkins is not a lazy person.

I have never, ever seen a face so filled with hate like I did from Kate Hopkins tonight. She can give it out but she most certainly can't take it back. Mind you, BB and Perez got her a blinder in the DiaryRoom when she believed Perez had gone. She has zero perceptive skills and zero intuition. That chicken is up there with Rula Lenska's and that whatshisname politician and the pussycat. It will go down in the annals of Cringeworthy clips in CBB history. My God! How ugly did KH look tonight.
Too right. The knowledge that all her future utterances are going to be met with 'cluck, cluck' must be eating away at her insides like battery acid.

I do hope she has pre-booked and paid for her children's future therapy.

That comment of hers, and the fact that a sizeable amount of viewers won't see the hypocrisy in it, makes me want to bang my head against the wall.
