Simple question to discuss to night.

Who has more talent Nikki or Chanelle?

Chantelle x

Well said she can play a violin for starters reasonably well even when she doesn't want to and can't be bothered practicing.

I think the voter thought it was Chantelle not chanelle.

Just to notify you Nikki is a trained ballet dancer, a dam good reporter and has comedy value.

Chanelle's very talented well... she can play the voilin and she has a good singing voice!I like Nikki i think shes very entertaining but i wouldent say shes talented...

Chanelle

Nikki has amazing humour even when tantrums aside. Her humour is very funny, but Chanelle can play the violin, shes a fantastic singer, and is talented at impersonating Posh.

IMO, they both are good at their own things, Chanelle is good at playing violin, Nikki good at ballet dancing and I liked her reports. If I had to choose who has a good sense of humour than I would pick Nikki anyday.

You'd pick Nikki to receive the Nobel Peace Prize

sorry thought it was chantelle now its chanelle! =]

I think that Chanelle's talents mostly lie with her looks and her charm and sophistication. Her future will be modelling, I would have thought. She has everything going for her in that particular area and in that very lucrative and resourceful business she will blossom with flying colours. I haven't personally being watching her recent offers for work - but I can only assume that offers have been coming her way from many mediums. Her manager will have to decide which will suit Chanelle the best and judging from the look of her - any modelling work will be easy money and help her grow into something quite magnificent.

I see that she is going to be part of a Spice Girl related tv show. I guess that will be another quality that Chanelle possesses. The quality of being a presenter and to be one of those - you need to be quite outgoing and Chanelle is certainly that.

I don't know about Nikki actually perhaps she has something going for her, but it will be nothing compared to Chanelle - who has it going on.

Chanelle can play the violin well, she seems to hate doing it for some reason but it's great to be able to play an instrument well. I don't think Nikki has ever demonstrated any sort of talent.

I think a lot of Chanelle's talents do lie with her looks, like you say, but that isn't a bad thing these days if you want to truly become one of the celebrities that magazines love and live the life style. She can, I think, live that life and pull it off. At some stage she will have to dump the Victoria Beckham look alike image but once she has done that the sky really is the limit for the girl if she is managed correctly. Like her or not.

The press already love her and love to talk about her. Out of all this years housemates she must have accumulated the most column inches since leaving the house. What she did in the house has already been largely forgot and she is becoming a celebrity in her own right.

What is more important is she does have other skills, she is outgoing, she does have a air of confidence about her and she knows where she wants to go. She has ambition.

May be she does but I think it might be very age specific and doesn't stretch across a wide age range. It is in fact one of Nikki's limitations. Nobody with a three year old at home will want to watch a adult acting like a three year old on TV. It's not funny.

Thankfully she seems to be dropping that act on TV, but she does carry on acting like that in real life if the magazines are to be believed.

She needs to grow up and then may be we will really see if she does have talent.

Wouldn't you advice same to Chanelles throwing childish strops and tantrum as you seemed to be bias towards Nikki, maybe you dont care about her after all as you claim.

Sorry, I don't understand.

I think you do understand.

I agree

I will try and work it out.

I don't think that Nikki is a celebrity, I don't think she should be a celebrity and I don't think at this stage of her life it would be good for her. I'm sure if I met her and got passed the act and really knew her I would find that she is deep down a lovely girl that is very troubled by the past. If I got to know her that well I would be counseling her to get help and sort out the past so she could move forward into the future. If she got that help, maybe if it was right for her, she could do all the things she is doing now. She would be strong enough to take everything the press said and walk away with her head held high. At the moment every negative comment about her will be eating away at her and doing her harm. She recently been worrying about her weight if press reports are to be believed. That is what she need to get sorted. Once that is done maybe we will see what talent she has.

Right, now for Chanelle and my take on her. I'm not a great fan. I didn't want her to win, but she has something that is special. Something that makes the press love her and not make fun of her. Yes she has her problems like Nikki. Yes she needs to stop the tantrums, but mainly these are in private and are not so public. She might need help with them, but she is not so self centered that she won't listen and find that help if she feels she needs it. She does have a great number of things going for her as have been mentioned in the thread already. Yes she needs to find herself and become Chenelle and drop the spice girl rubbish but she can do it.

This thread was about talent, but looking at in terms of celebrity Chanelle wins hands down too.

Thanks for working it out. I think press look at Nikki as a figure of fun, thats why they take the fun because she's funny herself, and as for Channelle being special, in what terms, We haven't yet come accross who the real chanelle is.

I think everyone looks at Nikki as a figure of fun and that is where the problem is. She plays that game. We all laugh at her rather than with her. She plays the fool and has become the fool.

It's sad that someone wants to aspire to being laughed at. That is not talent it just being taken for a ride.

Weather laugh at her or with, media finds her fun, and she could also have a good sense of humour if she doesn't throw her tantrum, as for Chanelle, I agree she has some talents, but she needs to stop imitating others and be herself.

If chanelle can play the voilins, Nikki can ballet dance and be funny, thats where Chanelles lacks at, she isn't remotely funny, but that doesn't take away that she has good singing voice and good at playing voilins. they have their own individual quality.

None but I voted for Nikki as she got her own personnality, she's not a "fake posh-wannabe-space-did you see me ?"

I have to agree that Chanelle has to stop imitating others and be herself. She has to know she is good enough as she is and that she can develop her own style and live her own life. Hopefully she will grow out of it but if she doesn't it could be her downfall.

I didn't vote, I just thought I'd tell you - Nikki plays, or played, the piano.
