The social ramifications if Tiffany wins...
If Tiffany wins, she will be the first female black winner in 63 seasons of the show in the UK, Canada, USA and Australia combined. Surely it's about bloody time.
Also for some interesting statistics, of the 63 seasons: POC Winners - 4/63 --> Shilpa (CBB5), Jun (BB4USA), Brian (BB8UK) and Trevor (BBAU4) Black female winners - 0/63 Asian male winners - 0/63 GO TIFFANY! (Not that this is the only reason she should win by any means but it's a statistic worth considering). |
I suppose part of the problem as well is that (going by the British BB anyway) you might only have one black HM per season (male or female)

And to add to that if we compare male and female statistics again, it also shows how social constructs about gender and what we expect of men and women influence the winner outcome as well. I'm starting to want to come up with some statistics and calculations, estimating the probability for a POC or female to win Big Brother, or any other reality TV show for that matter!

I think it would be the end of BB
why Because it will mean someone has won by simply being 100% fake and pandering to what the producers think YOU want drama, sex, stereotypes I think it would be a disaster for the fight against racism it would be a terrible terrible disaster for BB |
It's not going to happen but I've got everything crossed :fc:
Those stats in the OP shock me frankly :0 At least if Tiff wins it will be on merit also |

most of the poc contestants in the british civilian BB's have been awful and mostly loud mouthed bitches.
I'm not surprised they don't win. I think the blame must lay with the people who select these utter twats because when we get a good one like brian they go on to do really well. What about Gina and makosi..they were both loved by loads of people and went on to do well in the competition. Maybe when it comes to the british version the stats do lie a bit. |

Not the Gina and Makosi argument :rolleyes: Makosi was absolutely loathed when she came out (as was Gina to some extent)

Awful woman. The trouble is that BB has been on for so long now that everybody plays the BB game well. It would be horrible to see somebody like Scotty win as he has zero personality. Tiffany has been more entertaining & would be a good winner but not based on her race but the fact that she has been better than most in there while being treated badly by others. How many fat people have won BB ?. Are we prejudice against them too ?. As there has been some pretty vile comments about Gemma. |

Interesting thread though. |
Tiff is growing on me. I think she is just having a bit of fun to relieve the boredom of that dreadful place, and as none of the current crop are particularly blessed in the intelligence stakes, her options for entertainment are pretty sparse.
I would like to see her in a top 3 place, winning really is pretty meaningless and irrelevant |
I literally don't care who out of this lot wins, worst set of CBB HMs ever
|
The only time a black woman has won a BB anywhere ever is in BB Africa, and even then there are only a few female winners. Says it all really.
Let's hope Tiffany can be the second black girl to ever make the top 2 after Legend Danielle Reyes :love: |
