A load of bullcrap. Being American has nothing to do with it.

Seriously? 'Pulling the racist card out'?

Some people need to catch themselves on and eat a large bowl of LOL's.

A) She's childish.

B) She's a loud mouth who you'd only want to spend five minutes in a room with, let alone Big Brother.

Definitely. Even the tea and coffee thing showed the cultural differences of American vs. British culture. In America, making tea for somebody isn't even a gesture of anything.
It's like, if you're making tea, you'll ask if someone wants some too, or something, but as Gemma was explaining how it's seen as a really polite thing to do, Tiffany was rightfully confused because in America people usually make coffee/tea in the morning or get it on their way to work. There's no social protocol to it.
Also, I think it's unfair that half of them knew each other in some capacity prior to the show.

The problem here is the other Americans suffered no such 'problems' with protocol, even Jonathan whom by any stretch inhabits a weird celebrity world fitted in rather well.

Her issue was she came in proclaiming to them all what a big deal and massive diva she was then wondered why nobody wanted to be close to her, once she realised the show was about survival by fitting in it was to late she had burned her bridges hence why she is now GCs bitch cause she thought that would be her best chance at avoiding noms.

being american & being black has nothing to do with it. she didnt actually get that many noms for any form of bias to be considered. acting the way she did though during noms will ensure she is a target if there is a next time

Tbh i've gone off her.She does'nt seem to have a sense of humour.Always so serious.She could smile abit more and have a laugh and try and fit in.I think being American is maybe a small part of it,The humour and values are a little different.

She's been volatile, unpredictable and explosive from day one...she decided at the start she had nothing in common with anyone...her words not theirs...she f-cked up big time when Bowie died then just as people were starting to forget her uncontrollable temper she kicked off all over again in the puppets task....can't imagine that everyone in the house is racist, that would be highly unlikely....but I'm sure everyone in the house is uncomfortable with psycho behaviour ....as for American, it didn't hamper Jonathon, Angie or David....in fact Jonathon and David were liked by everyone ....

She's aggressive and confrontational, therefore the housemates want her out.That's not the reason they give when nominating her to her face because........she's aggressive and confrontational.

It's as simple as that.

None of the people who cry about racism seemed too concerned about ageism when Angie was monumentally ridiculed on here or concerned about a homophobia when Winston behaved like a prick ....so you'll have to excuse me if I don't give a sh-t about peoples unfounded claims of racism ......you can't only fight for human rights if it only affects you...makes your voice irrelevant

I think Tiff has always had a chip on her shoulder anyway, and now all the other Americans have gone, she feels like the odd one out. She didn't do herself any favours tonight, but I can kind of see where she is coming from if she was already feeling vulnerable when it was announced that the noms were starting. She isn't one to hold back and just take it, so off she went...

Right Now in USA she is a Producer of shows
so its a shock for her to be picked on.

Well Done Viacom.
Culture Divide is Real

I have been in America

Some people are just disliked cause they are total a holes, nothing to do with race or culture.

This is one of those cases

She's just an easy target for them, she is completely different to them in so many ways, it's just sad, also if it wasn't face to face I'm sure she wouldn't have gotten so many. :/

..yeah, it didn't bother them to the point that they've all left without being evicted.....THAT'S HOW MUCH THAT IT HASN'T BOTHERED THEM.....seriously though, I know that David and Angie are ill and sleep deprived etc...but stress weakens the body and makes it more susceptible/vulnerable, so that may have been a big factor there as well, to them feeling so unwell...

She's a black american woman from upstate New York. They just don't get her and it seems like very few in that house have even tried to.
