2) I want real people, not a civilian BB with Z list celebs in and people recruited via their agents and I certainly don't want CBB filled with people, the majority of whom have a reality TV background. Although I'm not a supporter of anyone in the house, I value fairness. (Actually I don't care who wins, I like none of them!)
3) As for Emma Willis...this is the same one who whipped up the crowd nightly on BBOTS when Pete Burns, Jamie East and herself gave Aaron such a hard time?
Emma Willis who has found other work now thanks to this parody of BB?
Emma Willis wants real people? Ha!
Emma Willis a die hard BB fan?
Well she shouldn't have gone with CH5 then should she? The writing was on the wall from the start but after climbing her way up the very greasy pole, she now decries everything that she has said and done.
4) By the way, what happened to the hard hitting interviews for Hughie and Ryan? They had sex on TV.
I'd also like to point out that at no point in my post did I throw any toys out of a pram. I gave my opinion on an earlier post about the interview. Not about 4 people in the house. Just Emma Willis.”
1) My criticism was of your post explaining that after the shambles that BB has become, why should Emma NOT BE BIASED? Professionalism has flown out the window since day 1 on this series.
2) I wholeheartedly agree with you.
3) Just reeling off Emma's history you clearly have held a great dislike of her style from your tone; cynicism, sarcasm, and looking down on what she has achieved. And that is ok. We can't all like everybody all of the time. Had she jumped ship the moment she 'made it', I might too look down on her. The fact she's stuck this out when better jobs have come her way, says
something about her liking this gig. I didn't watch BBOTS too much in the early days when she presented it. However, I thought we were talking about her interview with Chloe in particular? I know you are using these situations to thread Emma's 'interviewing inadequacies' as proof of her mediocrity as an interviewer. But, it doesn't prove anything to me. Yes, sometimes she's too soft or too hard going in her technique with certain housemates. But, for the most part, most viewers don't have a polarising problem with her. In fact, her style is greatly liked, hence she gets a fair bit of work coming her way. I would imagine not watching the series and then interviewing the housemates, impartiality would be so much easier for anybody? Watching it is more likely for her to have favourites. And she does ok in being fairly neutral, imo. She's only human. But, I think when it comes to interviewing Bear, she's probably going to be not that relaxed, a bit cold, and as practical as she can. People will call her out on that too. A combination of Nelson Mandela and Mother Theresa would lack the patience of dealing with this monumental prick, come interview time.
4) Couldn't tell you about this. I don't watch the civilian BB
because of the whoring and argumentative antics of limelight huggers that we now have being paraded on our screen in the current CBB.
We'll just have to agree to disagree. And Chloe did raise her voice. Yes, she was all about defending herself from such an 'onslaught'. But, by god, she'd sit there on her arse and watch Bear be mean to people in the house and laugh about it with him later. Awful girl. And she's deluded if she thinks they are going to be a couple later. I wouldn't be surprised if Bear makes waves between him and Lewis next and makes moves on Marnie, seeing as they and Chloe all hammered their nails to the mast of immorality. The only consistent thing about that man he brings out the worst in everybody around him because he can't do anything else. He even manages it with his screen over and mates. I didn't mind Chloe in the beginning - But, by god, her colours were revealed. Lacks smarts, awareness, and any sense of who she is supposed to be. Very lost, if I were to give any sympathy, and very likely to be chewed up and spat out by men like bear.
