That'll be why he made the whole 'I ain't got nothing against gays, damn my cousins is gay, I love them, I didn't mean any disrespect to the community'. Because he got told, or became aware, that what he was saying could be interpreted as homophobic. ANYONE can play the 'hey, I ain't racist /homophobic /sexist/.... I got a black friend/ gay brother/ mother, sister. I can't possibly be! It's a really stupid argument and has rightly been mocked worldwide for a long time.
I think Alex got caught up in a shitstorm and didn't handle it well at all. Perez was a total dick for the way he handled it too - played it to the max and I can see why people concluded he 'got Alex booted out'. Funnily enough, though, Michelle The Voice was completely silent. Unless I missed something? Maybe she stepped up and sorted out this case of (mis)interpreted homophobia? If she did, she was damned quiet about it. Seriously, the more I think about it the more I want to question that woman about her so-called fight. If there was ONE instance in the House where she should have been forefront - where was she?? Nowhere. That's where. And yes, the little speech about gay cousins looked painfully staged to me, performed just before he did his vanishing act. Conveniently Michelle, recognised the world over as The One True Voice of All Of The Gays (and Hopkins) sat at his feet nodding and murmuring contemplative agreement, as if they're listening to a wise old warrior just back from a war who's seen things you wouldn't believe rather than an ageing R n B singer known for a few hit records and a cocaine problem. |

Well, as I'm away to my bed I find myself wondering why rhumbathingy has gone so eerily quiet.
Could it be that he/she actually watched the video I posted? Is such a thing possible? If so we truly are living in a wondrous utopia. |

In my first posts about Perez back on day 1 or 2, I said I thought he had a really kind face, and I still feel exactly the same. He's got this childlike openness and vulnerability that I find completely endearing.
That interview was really compelling and I'm slightly in awe of his resilience. To come through that experience AND the reaction he's had since getting outside, and still be smiling and self-deprecating is quite something. I'd have cracked up. |

I always maintained Perez was a kind person and that was because of how he was in the beginning. Most of the HMs actually ignored Ken at the start but Perez worried over him not having a bed and asked if he wanted to share with him. Most of the others turned a blind eye.
A silly observation, but I do smile every time I see the scene where he's calling Michelle out on her being the representative for 'the gays' (I hate that expression that she uses). 'LGBT' is not something that trips off the tongue very easily but I was amazed at how quickly Perez would say it, over and over again, lol. (sorry, that's quite a random point )

It's a travesty that beige Best, Spokewoman for the Minorities Visage and the virtually silent Katie Price are in the final when the true winner - the one who did his homework, knew what was expected of him for his fee and played the game brilliantly - is out. In a couple of years, we probably won't even remember who won but we will always remember Perez. I take people on face value - I don't care what Perez has been like in the past (and that's pretty well documented). He's sorted himself out, is looking in great shape (and I actually think he's really attractive) and has admitted he was a tosser in his past life - people can, and do, change. He's been open, honest and sussed them all out perfectly accurately throughout the whole series, and in interviews since leaving. I just don't get all the hate, and Luisa nobody Zissman was a classless disgrace on BOTS on Wednesday night. And one of the worst things of all has been people saying he's not fit to be a dad - based on what, a 45 minute edit of a reality show?! |

Scarlet O'Hara - your post that Nesta quoted is spot on. It's exactly what I've said about him for weeks. He has a child-like optimism that I think is an endearing quality. He has been fiercely loyal to his few friends in the house, in a way none of the other housemates have. I'm still struggling to understand why so many hate him. ![]() Quote:

You can watch it on ITV Player. That's how I caught up with it although skip to half way through because Perez is second half. It really was enlightening particularly about the Alex/Perez situation.
