They rarely have any relevence to what kind of housemate they are going to be!
They are presenting a version of themselves. Just take it with a pinch of salt. I think next year I might just start watching from episode 3. Go in blind.

That's true. People usually turn out to be the opposite if their VTS

POW! BLAM!

Tom seemed to more or less disregard Raph's VT when talking to Joe. Sure, he reported it, but sounded to me like he was going to judge by his in-house behaviour.

If that was his approach then I would be fine with it but why whisper about him to other housemates? It just reminds me of Pauline BB15, she couldn't get past those VTs.

But it's all we have before we see them so it's inevitable that it will be our first point of judgement.
As the series go on, people do forget about the VTs

another vice

Yeah this, I think the main fault is that we have an eviction so early on before at least one housemate really usually gets a chance to prove themselves

It is how they want to be perceived though... why can't I judge them on how they want to be perceived?

This is a good point, if you're happy to say something to get in there you should be happy to be judged on the basis of it. I completely agree that VTs are frequently unreliable representations of housemates, but it's still a representation they chose to put out there.

Yeah I know. People purposely go OTT on their VTs else they would never get in. Year after year we get people so shocked that housemates are different to their VTs
Its just a shame that they HAVE to go over the top, or in some cases create a whole new persona just to get into the house. As 'normal' isn't really what the producers are looking for...

They don't have much relevance on how a housemate will turn out to be, but when it's Day 1 it's pretty much all you have to go off them so it's perfectly acceptable to judge them based on that.

It gives us an indication of what type of housemate they're trying to be, and it's our first perception of them so of course that's gonna affect people's opinions of them

Too glam to give a damn

I remember the harrowing treatment Rachel Rice recieved from Rex when he hounded her for 'being nothing like her VT'...just because she was a tad hyper
