I seriously doubt that Eileen is the most ambitious in there. Jade, I believe, would appear on NUTS or any such publications ,given half the chance, as she has no publicity or recognition in her own country prior to Big Brother.

What's she doing in BB -- not even CBB?


That's just your belief, though.

Jade could already be a glamour model if that's what she wanted to do.

And Nuts doesn't even exist any more.

Jade is a pageant contestant, possibly going from Miss Tractor fancier to Miss Dublin wannabe in the space of a month, but never any further. She was in a contest with Ashleigh (from last year) in one of those trite competitions; Irelands qualifier for Miss Universe or something. She is not a model, at all really, just a serial competitor in beauty competitions.

Ah, the truth is revealed. As usual with shows like this its all about who you know. The show wanted to recreate Ashleigh, so they went fishing and cast one of her friends. Now it all makes sense.

I'm talking about creating divide and to a degree isolating yourself. She's hardly tried to integrate and just play nice with the hms, she's made it evident that she doesn't like most of them. She's creating her own downfall imo.

I like her, dunno. She makes me laugh and i find her endearing as long as you don't take her super serious.

That was before she was being singled out and targeted which makes me like her even more.

You said you believed Jade "would appear on NUTS or any such publications ,given half the chance," so I pointed out that if she wanted to do glamour modelling, she she'd already be doing it. Your reply is just a different form of your earlier claim that she has "no publicity or recognition in her own country prior to Big Brother." She would't need those things to start glamour modelling.

The way the HMs are treating Jade is their responsibility, since it's their behaviour. Jade gets along fine with the ones who aren't trying to get rid of her.

I tend to Base my like or dislike of housemates on a very simplistic question. Could I live or work with them? I can safely say it'd be a resounding no on both counts where she's concerned. My liberty would be at stake within a very short period.

People like her because they aren't sheep who follow the so called popular hms. As for flicking hair Nick does that constantly. Jack is very manipulative too. The seat where Adjoa had been sitting before eviction barely cooled down before he was flapping his gums about Jade. Planting the seed of doubt to everyone about Jade being this and that. I could go on and on mention other hms who are far from perfect in there.

None of them are perfect so I don't see why Jade is being villified.

The bit in bold is very interesting for me. I think there's a certain amount of truth in it but because there's a certain amount of truth in it, it posts Irish posters in a difficult position. I basically am refraining from posting in threads about jade because I know this criticism will be levelled and my opinion not taken seriously. Only happens with Irish hms for some reason. Those defending or attacking Adjoa or Kieran are never judged on their ethnicity; those defending or attacking Joel are never quizzed on their associations with Wales. It seems to be a particular DS syndrome.

I think, Kromm, you need to ask yourself how much the bit in bold stifles discussion. So I'm going to comment on the posts below and then I'm going to shut up until Jade is evicted on Friday - as she inevitably will be to massive boos from the moronic crowd.


Completely, absolutely but predictably out of proportion. Her and Nick's nom talk was without any nastiness towards the others. Just a voicing of opinion.


I also think this is true - but she won't be given any credit for her refreshing honesty. Though she's repeatedly spoken herself about how objectionable her own personality is 'diva bitch' etc.; all people want to talk about is the fact that she thinks she's beautiful.


I find that quite confusing too. She's confident in herself. That's apparently not allowed. Having said that, I still think Jade's self-confidence is very fragile and she has fleetingly mentioned being bullied at school by the 'pretty, cool' girls. That little comment was quite telling.


And I'll finish with this 'tractor fancier' unveiled xenophobia which takes me nicely back to Kromm's initial point.

That's me out.

Very good and honest response Patsy. I think you're spot on in your points about Kieran, Joel etc. I kind of feel the same way about Kieran. Like Jade, i think he has a quirky and fun side to him, but people prefer to bring up more negative views about him, so I tend not to get involved. None of the hms are perfect but we have a right to support them if we wish without nationalities, ethnicity, sexual orientation etc being the focus.
