If so, Why ?

I can't see any endearing qualities in her at all.
She's bossy, stroppy and manipulating.
Her hobby seems to be shitstirring.

Didn't Emma say "in no particular order?" That means she only has to have been more popular than one other nominee.

Among the type of people who attend BB evictions? Yes.

Pretty sure she said those 2 were the top 2...

I really hope her popularity only goes as far as the eviction crowd.

It;s all the cheering and fawining that is puzzling me.

She awful.

It's scary.

Yep she did

She said the two with the most votes and therefore safe in no particular order are......

Gemma and Steph .....which I reckon was the actual order anyway ,

Why Gemma's so popular though I don't know

yes she is

A lot of people know who she is, so she will have a fanbase already from towie, even if they dont like what she is doing on CBB. Also, forgive me for thinkinging this way, but perhaps because she is a larger lady rather than a stick thin model? Might make have more easy for some people to relate to i guess, or feel less threatened by....

If someone is liked just because they are overweight then that is just sad.

As annoying as they are out of the 5 they are the 'most current' the other 3 at this time are not on their own show
Steph used to be and Gemma is still in TOWIE. The others have the BB fanbase and no other fan Base.

Well it's been obvious for years now that the crowd is filled with performing monkeys. They do whatever they think is cute, not what they think. If they even do.

Sure it is. But is that any different than the people (whom I've seen on here) saying they like someone because like them they're Irish, from Essex, Scottish, Geordie, or whatever?
