...they’re all negative housemates though in that they’ve all been chosen for their negative storms which go beyond controversial housemates as some have been in the past...so it can’t be said that the public no longer likes negativity if this series is getting similar size viewers and voters as in the past etc...it really depends on an individual viewer and voter etc as to which type of negativity they find more acceptable or less unacceptable in nature of the storms they all have..?...some of those storms for me are quite difficult to get beyond to see any other parts in their character because of the grim nature...and there seems a lot of reluctance in talking about them so that makes it harder to get on board with any...Natalie was trying to rattle those storms to the surface in the early days and for me that was a positive..?...sadly that wasn’t to be, most of them voted for her because they wanted to hide in their corners and create ‘their own stories’....she was for me a real positive in the house with the theme this year and the characters who have been out in there...

Lesley

Nicole
Bea
Becky
Caroline

To name a few, these are "white villains"

Also lets not forget the types of Gina, Tiffany, Deana, Deborah were very popular with the public despite having lots of arguments.

It has nothing to do with colour.

Good point

Also in Helen's year: remember PAULINE?

Her entrance was one of the most crowd-positive of all time.
The public LOVED her on 1st impressions.

So much so - she was voted as the 1st Power HM.

It was hers to lose, but boy, how she lost it.
