Josie - Am I the only one who thinks she is fake?

[frankie]

When i first started watching I loved Josie. As time has gone on I think she is playing a game. It was quite obvious that John James didn't feel the same way but absolutely loves her as a person and she has persisted in wearing him down. Every time he tried to tell her that he didn't feel the same way, she said "stop talking" or took her mike off to talk to him. I truly think when they took their mikes off she talked about how much they could make if they were perceived as a couple and to go along with it. He's gone from wanting to leave because he doesn't want to upset her as he doesn't feel the same to suddenly cuddling and kissing her constantly. Does anyone else see this? Corin to win in my opinion - she's the only genuine one in there.

[Mr XcX]

No. I think she is the FAKEest HM8 of all time. PLAYING all fans like a Stradivarius

[frankie]

Glad I'm not the only one! Was beginning to think my 11 years of watching and picking the winner had gone to pot!

[WOMBAI]

Hardly - At least 50%, probably a lot more - must think that by now!

[Zippy]

Fake looks but REAL personality. Genuinely warm, friendly and helpful.

[setanta]

She's not really fake to me because I can see her for exactly what she is.

[StGeorge]

Yeah..bet Sunshine & Caiomhe adore her.. :rolleyes:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

There all fake, but she is fake!

she just lied to jo...on live feed

^^I take this back!

LOL. For some reason I thought this thread was about Corin! :blush2:

But anyway, I don't think Josie is fake either. I think she's been dragged down another path by this whole JJ nonsense. It's distracted her unexpectedly and taken over her mind somewhat. Sure, she's made a fool of herself with jealousy. Who hasn't? Be grateful you weren't on TV.

But I still remember her before she got sucked in and also see what fun she still is away from him sometimes. So I blame him for her downfall in popularity. For leading her on and promising her something I dont think he has any intentions of delivering.

What did she say?

no josie is one of the most genuine ones of the year imo.

and john james is more controlling about her than she is with him.

[brian3]

She has the personality she has when talking to JJ. The one she has when talking to Andrew. Then the one with everyone eles

[frankie]

So when he was crying and wanted to leave and she said "stop talking John" that was genuine affection was it? Don't think so! She knows exactly what she's doing. Every time he's tried to tell her how he feels she just spreads the guilt and her feelings even thicker until he doesn't know what to do. After all, the guy is a wimpering Mummy's boy so he's used to being controlled by stronger women - don't be fooled by her. If she was slim and gorgeous you would be knocking her for sucking her thumb constantly but because she's not perfect (as she keeps saying constantly) that's ok!!!

[Mystic Mock]

the teenage girls cant admit john james fancies josie a little bit.

[Zippy]

LOL. She gets slaughtered for doing that and for numerous other silly things too. She hardly gets it easy round here!

people cant come up with reasons for hating josie apart from that shes fat.

which i dont think she is.

[frankie]

I don't think she's fat but she harps on about it constantly as another way to get votes from the millions of women who are over weight. I am 47 so not a teenage JJ lover. I think he's an idiot! My view is purely about the game Josie is playing and the fool she's making of herself by throwing herself at him.

[yellowzebra8]

No-one can say that any of them are fake (unless you know them in real life). I'm assuming that you don't know Josie in real life, so saying she's fake (different in the house as she is outside) is very silly. Playing a game isn't a bad thing either. It's how you win. They've all gone in wanting to win and thats really good. It's IMPOSSIBLE to go in without a gameplan, as even deciding NOT to have a gameplan IS a gameplan.

So yeah, 'fake' and 'gameplan' are the two accusations that really annoy me, they always come across as desperate attempts to hate someone.

Agreed - she is throwing herself at him, like some lovesick schoolgirl! It is embarrassing to watch - and an absolute let down from a hm who originally appeared to have more to offer!

you are so, so 100% right :)

[WOMBAI]

Are you on a different thread to the rest of us! It isn't about her weight - it is about her silly, childish behaviour! She is not a schoolgirl - but she is sure acting like one!

She should have more pride in herself and not throw herself at the first good looking guy to come along on a tv show! She is making a show of herself!

but then the same should be said about him when he was gonna quit in week 2 because she fell out with him.

[yellowzebra8]

I'm not 'on a different thread to the rest of you' thanks very much WOMBAI, i saw that post by jedward fever and completely agreed with it, so i decided to say that i thought it was right! I think that peoples reasons for liking her = " silly, childish behaviour! She is not a schoolgirl - but she is sure acting like one! " are very weak and very untrue!!!! so this is the perfect thread to say that on!!!

[WOMBAI]

I think they are both idiots - with their eye on the 100k!

[Shiner]

I don't "hate" anyone but I can come up with a few choice adjectives for Josie other than fat for you.
How about selfish, manipulative, liar, self-pitying, furtive, paranoid, jealous, mean hearted, a cheat (in the sense of the game). And the strange thing is she has admitted to most of these things in the house herself and yet her fans won't see it. :conf:
I could list some positive ones too but in the context of this reply and the fact that it may inspire more pro Josie deliusions, I don't want to.

[yellowzebra8]

How is that a bad thing? Surely you'd play to win?
Its a flipping GAMESHOW and people act is if wanting to win it is a bad thing!!!

If they are honest about it yes - but they are not - gives the wrong impression - so they pretend they are above that!

Is turning your mics off playing the game?

[WOMBAI]

Is faking a romance playing the game - in my book it is cheating - and I don't like cheats! They are both a pair of sneaky, underhand cheats!

[yellowzebra8]

It's nothing to do with the game! She needed to say something to John without the nation knowing, it was obviously important and people should respect that she did it, proving that its not a fauxmance at all, if it was all for the cameras she would have left the microphones ON.

What brilliant guesswork - or maybe a bit of telepathy!

You don't know what they were talking about, could of been nominations or anything! They have rules for good reason - not to be broken by individual hms who think they are above the rules because of their silly faux romance - I don't think so! They should both have been put up for eviction!

[TheEchelonxRawr!KP]

YES She is one the most genuine people in there! Most of the people who don't like her are either jelous teenage girls that are in disbelief that Jphn James actually fancies Josie.. or shallow guys who slate her just coz she is a little bigger..

She is a nice, funny person! leave her alone!

You have it completly mixed up.. if anything Corin is the fake one!! Looks and personality!

How original - we are all jealous! :sleep: Yes dear!

She is an immature, thumb-sucker who clings to the first good looking guy that comes along! Desperado!

Yeh coz ur comment.... OH SO ORIGINAL! :sleep::sleep:

Josie is just a girl who fell for a guy.. give her a break! .. and who cares if she sucks her thumb? GET OVER IT! :/

[Mr XcX]

Why should we, she is obviously in it to win it.

[jools]

Are those who think Josie is a master manipulater etc,the same as thoe who have called her thick?.

[Shiner]

Nope.

[JosieIsFake]

I think Josie is the fakest housemate ever.. what shes done is watched them psychologists who say :

" people take roles in the house.. the BABY role never gets voted for.. "

Thats why she sucks her thumb, Then theres the whole John James thing :

" oh a guy like him will never like a girl like me "

Not only is she the FAKEST housemate ever.. She is also the SADDEST.

She didnt like it whe Sam said she will be the one on the magazine covers because she is that dumb she thinks no-one can see her plans, well Im glad other people can too and not just me.
Oh and turning the mics off... could it be discussing nominations ?... punish them by putting them up for vote, in fact.. just evict them.

Please Get Her Out.

I loved her at the start aswell i think everyone did but your so right so is defo playing a game! At first i thought she really liked him but then the way she went on when he was gonna leave through the exit she said " John get back in here stop making a show of me" she wasnt worried if he was upset at all and even followed him to the diary room laughing which i thought was a bit weird and then when she over reacted to Sam and poor John was trying to explain what he actually ment she just kept telling him off and he just went along with it sometimes it also is a bit like mother and son its very very strange set up like! the sooner she goes the better i bet John would be alot better in the house without her!

[toothpick]

i hated her from the beginning and said she was fake but no one listened..

[WOMBAI]

Actually - you don't have to be Einstein - to know how to manipulate people!

[yousoboo!]

Josie isn't fake. She is actually like that. Walts and all.

[Shiner]

Actually - you don't have to be Einstein - to know how to manipulate people!

And sometimes you don't even have to know how to do it, it just comes naturally through a lifetime of learned behaviour.

[Kat555blue]

Biggest fake in the house, would love her to go, she is insincere and manipulative. Has played a good game but.........really bored with her being centre stage. Shame on you BB for giving her and JJ so much air time has made it boring this year. The JJ and Josie show. Josie has made sure she is centre of all drama since being in there.

[Kat555blue]

Please get him out!!! Spoilt little rich boy who can't fly economy class! No backbone and needs his Mummy, called Josie Mum last night which confirmed what we already knew.

After he is out please get Josie out!!
