I think that would be an interesting conversation to listen to. Does she regret how she started out? Would she do it again?

But the dumber and dumber crew in there no chance of hearing anything interesting in conversations.

Sam is proud of her past. Who said that she regrets it?

Why would she regret it . She had a great body, probably still has, and it made her famous and I would hope a good standard of living .

It was art darling, so no regrets.

She said early n in the house (day 2 or 3) that she didn't regret her page 3 days - she had worked all over the world on the back of them. But I get whet she means. Still photographs, professionally shot for a national newspaper (not a top shelf of under the counter magazine) when it was deemed by a large percentage of the population to be perfectly acceptable, almost a national institution, is not quite the same as what Chloe, and Marnie have been doing in the house in front of other HMs, the BB crew and the viewing public. I don't think it was neccessarily just about the pole dancing that night, it was an accumulation of everything the Sleaze Squad have been up to over the last fortnight. There has to be a tipping point, and that was it.

Of course, people also had the choice not to purchase The Sun when it still featured Page 3 girls if they objected. The HMs can't really choose not to hear and see what is going on in the house.

I think that the way she talks about her music and describe it as art is her way of distancing herself from the fact that she posed topless at such a young age. I assumed she was now wishing she had gotten into music another way.

She was talking about her Page 3 career, not her singing.

I think it has to be looked at in context of the era.

Page 3 was seen as an acceptable part of life in the 70's and 80's and almost lauded as a British institution.

In general, the girls like Jo Guest, Lucy Pinder, Melinda Messenger, Linda Lusardi and Sam Fox were never viewed as anything other than pretty girls with lovely smiles who just happened to pose topless. I think one term used was "breezy not sleazy!"

Agreed. Almost exactly what I posted Upthread. I like the "breezy not sleezy" quote. Not that I neccessarily agree with page 3 in retrospect but we are in a different world now.

Getting breasts out happens every BB series.

I don't agree, page 3 was looked down upon, men might have ogled but no one wanted it to be their wife or daughter. Sam was expelled from school the day after she had her first photo published and her sister took a lot of stick over it all.

Apologies I was talking about both, she wants to reminisce about her success as a singer but push aside the way she got there stating the page 3 was art.

I can understand why she would want to, doesn't need to in my opnion though.

I realise that, I remember Penny letting her bath towel slip & ther was a huge debate outside on whether she should keep her teaching job. But it's not been about exposing her, or Marnie's breasts really. It's the whole sorry debacle of the Sleeze Squad.
