Is it just me, or is this incredibly insensitive? Like, what signs has there been to suggest that none of this has been genuine? I think a lot of people are letting their opinion of him as a housemate cloud their judgement. I've seen many reaches over the years, but this one takes the biscuit!
Or maybe I'm just being naive, who knows? |

I'm pretty sure he has told his family? Or I could be wrong idk. Anyway, that's beside the point, as the live TV part really has nothing to do with it, because being in such an enclosed living environment 24/7, you are going to start feeling like that is the norm and forget you are constantly being watched.

I think the gameplan accusation is undeserved. Also, I agree, as many housemates have said over near all series, it does get overlooked that the cameras are there. |

But also if he didn't want to come out on national TV then he didn't need to keep making an issue of it in front of the other Housemates, it might sound insensitive to say but there have been quite a few closeted gay contestants on BBUK over the years and none of them used it like it was a storyline out of EastEnders.

I think its a gameplan. However, hes my fave, so clearly I don't think this because I'm letting dislike cloud my judgement
He has made such a fuss of making sure he went round each housemate seperately and made a big deal of the conversations, trying to make it coded (but ridiculous coded-ness) and that...along with the diary room thing early on where it was clear what he was on about but he was pretending he didn't want anyone to know, that I cannot see it as anything but a gameplan. Tbh I am surprised this plan has not happened sooner on the show. Still have no issue with gameplaying though. But yeah, I think this is 'fake'. Not fake as in he isn't gay, but fake as in planned out before he went in

Takes a lot of cynicism to find fault in someone having the courage to take the scariest step of their life, not surprised at all that people are trying to though.

I don't think it was a gameplan but it was a chore seeing it dragged out over 3 weeks

His Dad has just been on BOTS and said that he and other members of the family knew so that’s that on that.
I don't care about ANY of your negative vibes. If you don't know what coming out is actually like, you have no right to say how somebody else should do it. Honestly, people getting on their high horse and accusing him of gameplaying clearly have no clue what coming out can actually do to someone, no matter how supportive your family and friends are. It’s scary and life affirming and he should be really proud of himself. It’s so easy to accuse people of fakeness and gameplay on Big Brother. If he was game playing, he would have moaned less, been more positive and sulked a lot less that he has and he would also be a lot less paranoid. It is PAINFULLY obvious to anyone with a brain cell that his relationship with Lewis is because he gets a huge amount of comfort from him because he needs it. Someone with that level of paranoia and low self confidence does not possess the narcissistic qualities required to build a game plan to the level that he is being accused of.

However watching tonight I found it quite endearing and genuine. Lewis has been a great mate for him in there. I hope Cameron feels liberated now...and can enjoy the BB experience more. |

Well done, Rob. An excellent post. It is so, so sad to see so much cynicism about Cameron's decision to come out as he did. I think people forget how young he is, and how, at 18, he is still discovering his identity and trying to come to terms with it. This was no game plan. From what his dad said on BOTS, a lot of the people closest to him already know, and he just didn't get the chance to tell everyone he wanted to before entering the house. I think being around such a diverse range of people in the house probably made him feel that it's totally okay to just be who he is without feeling the need to hide it, and hence the environment was right for him to come out - it was a safe environment where I feel he knew he would be accepted for who he is. Cameron should be so, so proud of himself to have the courage to do what he did, and credit to the other housemates for making him feel secure enough to do so. I'm so glad that his dad was so proud of him on BOTS. |

Gameplan. My opinion. Don't have to be a lesbian to have an opinion either.
