Louise... I am totally confused.

[vesavius]

Why does she get so much screen time? It is just because she is 'fit'?

I honestly do not understand how such a vapid dishwater grey personality grabs so much attention when there is such a good house this year. I honestly don't get what people find entertaining in her mewing. I mean, I get showing T&A shots of her, but is there really a need to have her speaking?

Explain?

[Kerry]

Cos she's a housemate

[Pie]

ye its because shes fit and I could watch her all day.

[Jords]

wtf

[vesavius]

Cos she's a housemate

erm... ok. Thanks for the input. Anyone else?

[Jords]

On a side note, her baby noises :laugh2:

[vesavius]

ye its because shes fit and I could watch her all day.

'because she is fit'...

Yeah, I get that, but I was asking if there was any other reasons?

Is it really that superficial?

[Kerry]

erm... ok. Thanks for the input. Anyone else?

Well the others get time too.

[vesavius]

Well the others get time too.

But the point being made is that Louise seems to recieve a disproportionate amount of screen time in relation to her actually being interesting (once you get past her looks).

I just don't get her apparent popularity... I mean, if folks just want pretty faces to wank to the internet is full of as good or better... It's not the reason I support a HM at all. She is just extremely vapid and dull to me and her mewing drives me nuts lol.

[Patrick]

She hardly gets any screen time, get a hold of yourself man!
Christ Almighty.

Yeah I know and fair enough. For me I just find her down to earth and not some bitch who just wants the romance and deals. HOWEVER I'm also not naive. She's in there afterall

Erm, for me, I'm a little biased. Same accent and not in yer face Northern girl. But admittedly, yet, theres not been a huge amount to show

[snookered]

Like some of the others - not played her hand yet.

[Josy]

I dont think she gets more air time than the other housemates?

I just noticed the bit in bold, what a ridiculous thing to say, do you think she's only in there so men can leer at her on tv? she has every right to be shown as much as all the other housemates.

[vesavius]

Of COURSE she is only in there to be leered at!

I find it suprising that you didnt get that.

But yes, ofc she has the right to be shown as much as other when she does something intersting. The point I am making is that she does not do anything interesting and yet still recieves popular support and screen time.

[Callum]

She gets hardly shown actually, I'd say.

She looks the absolute image of this girl who I used to be friends with

[crocs]

I suppose the point is to show that such a fit girl can be so grounded and "normal" which is something that people don't assume her to be. I'm not sure if she's been shown that much but in contrast to Faye, she's been shown a lot.

[Chuck]

She does get more airtime than Faye and Maisy but maybe it's just because she's more outspoken. :p

[crocs]

Maisy was given quite a lot of airtime in the beginning. I've actually thought BB tries to give a bit of airtime to eveyrbody and maybe we've just not gotten to Faye and the rest. Well, Faye got a bit of airtime yesterday and it was a bit awkward.

[Grimnir]

I don't find Louise's camera time any less awkard personally... the girl is painful to watch as soon as she opens her mouth.

Also, anyone who constantly claims 'I am normal, down to Earth, and the same as you, honest!' obviously dosent think they are. In fact, the more they say it the less it's true.

The fact that she is top girl odds wise is astounding to me. Can no one tell me why they like her beyond 'shes fit'?

You do have a very good point vesavius. Short of the eye candy factor, and the link to a possible romance with someone/anyone.

I am also becoming a tiny bit fed up with the "I'm down to earth me, I like chips me, men don't speak to me because of how I look". She knew what she was coming into and the type of hms that would be there, so not sure what the crack is.

So yes, I think you have a very good point to make.

I do not base my HM choices on looks,either way. I consider that an idiotic basis for an opinion,especially in the BB house where I am more interested in entertaining personalities.

I actually think Faye is way more attractive then Louise, and probably the sexist girl in there, but thats just my taste and built on my perception of her as a person as well as the way she looks.


I do not dislike Louise because of her looks, I never once said that was an issue for me. I dislike Louise because of her vapid insepid mewing personality.

no you dislike her because she is beautiful and you are jealous

[vesavius]

no you dislike her because she is beautiful and you are jealous

haha is that true?

You know me that well do you?

So, no explanation of why you like HER past her looks, just an attack on me...

Love this forum :joker:

[Livia]

I don't agree that Louise get's a preferential amount of screen time. Rebeckah, yes. Louise, not so much. Louise is by far my favourite female in there.

[vesavius]

Rebeckah earns her screen time, what has Louise done for hers?

WHY is she your favourite female in there?

[Lee.]

She's my favourite female too.. is actually like to see more of her on the HL shows!

[Livia]

I guess if you consider any attention, even negative attention, valid... then you're right, Rebeckah earns her screen time.

Louise is my favourite because she seems the most down to earth and the least flakey.

[MeMyselfAndI]

Shes my favourite Female too.

[Pyramid*]

She's my favourite female too.. is actually like to see more of her on the HL shows!

She's my fav female too - but only becuase she appears to be down to earth - though her banging on about it all the time is niggling. She is gorgeous - and it's interesting to see how all the others (female and male) react to her beauty. Maisy appears to be doing much of the 'copycat' thing with the hats - which brings us right back to what the vesuvius was saying (I think). it's more to do with how she looks, than what she has on a personality front.


But she doesn't really do much else, there is little about other than the physical. She doesn't 'seem' bitchy, doesn't appear to get involved with many of the others in any fun way, nothing amusing comes out of her mouth, no good humour, fast wit etc. I do understand why the OP has asked the question.

Well, in terms of BB, yep I consider everything that Rebeckah has done in there as valid.

Your really buying her whole 'I'm normal, I'm the same as you plebs because I like chips' act?

Like I say, the fact that she keeps repeating it says clearly that she feels the need to reinforce it due to how she feels others see her (as in NOT 'normal'), which in truth tells us how she really sees herself.

Contrived humbleness is not attractive to me and, even by what you say, she brings nothing else personality wise into the mix.

It's not compulsory you agree with me. But if you're going to suggest I'm "buying in" to something because I'm a bit brainless, use a spellchecker.

Pyramid, I have a feeling Iam going to like your posts. Not because you understand what I am asking here, but because you seem to be able to be objective, reasoned, and can talk in more then one sentence.

Wish more folks posted like you tbh.

Someone agrees with you and they're objective and reasoned and can form a proper sentence. Not that I'm suggesting Pyramid can't do those things... it's just interesting to see say that...

[vesavius]

Livia... calm down...

1. I didnt say you were 'brainless' in the least, I have no idea why you are taking what I posted as a personal insult.

2. Trying to troll me about my spelling is really lame.

[vesavius]

again with your trolling :/


No, Pyramid demonstrates that he/ she can see things from both perspectives rather then just troll others with personal attacks. I just appreciate that, even if we don't agree on liking Louise (as we do not).

[crocs]

She is gorgeous - and it's interesting to see how all the others (female and male) react to her beauty.

I think this altogether is a very intrigueing thing. Louise has always had to deal with her beauty and other people's reactions to it, and maybe her saying she's down to earth and all that is due to the fact that she always has to say it out loud because other people cannot see past her beauty. And it's very interesting to see how the rest react to that beauty. Are they in awe, are they taken aback, do they try to connect with her or are they jealous? I have to say in all fairness that she hasn't said anything that spectacular or interesting in the house but I think she has a place in the house.

That's the part of it BB that does facsinate and intrigue me and one of the main reasons I do actually watch the show. I happen to like Louise, but am getting a bit fed up with her ramming home her message.

I watched and listened to her speak to Faye the morning after, to see that the very person who appears to fancy Aaron, then slates him as being weird - is she saying so little therefore, because she may trip herself up (which is what I think she did re: the weird comment).

Time will tell. Sometimes things are never quite as good as they appear to be - and from where I sit: Louise ticks many many boxes: which begs the question: why can't she get a man on the outside (if that's true)?

Maisy: her copycat act is a huge compliment - she obviously like Louise's style. Imitation as they say...

Liv/Vesuv:-I like both of you here - each of you have your own points of view: surely there's enough room for everyone to put them forward, come on, it's Sunday - day of peace and all that. :)

Thanks for the nice words Vesuvius, I confess to the one liners myself - you just haven't seen them yet !! You are free to change your mind !! :)

I was actually very surprised to hear her say that. And disappointed. I'm hoping that she was just trying to fit in the group and saying what she thought people wanted to hear even though that doesn't make her look good either.

Interesting question. The only thing that I can think of is that she doesn't give anything away from herself. For example, we don't know what kind of men she's into, what are her hobbies, what she likes. She is kind of like a girl who's just present and says nothing. Kind of a trophy wife but to a totally different kind of men that usually want that sort of wife. I remembered she said something about musicians. I think she's too bland for them though. But really, I wonder what she expects from a man.

I haven't paid any attention to that but heard Louise mentioning it. I have to keep my eye on it but I was surprised, because I thought Maisy has her own style.

I was too. I wasn't sure if it was said to 'suss' out Faye's reaction - or if she meant it. She intially started that particular subject by looking at Faye, but then continued by looking towards her left and away from Faye..... which makes me think, it was less to do with gauging Faye's reaction, and more to do with her 'slipping up'. Who knows.

.

I do wonder if that is why. It may be that she is not asked out because she is incredibly boring, with nothing to give. I'm beginning to think that might be closer to the truth. The musician comment (I'm sure) was about her liking men who play the guitar, and I agree with your thoughts.

One thing that puzzles me. She has an amazing figure, serious looks brilliant. I know of not one woman who is able to have that figure and does not have to work to maintain in via diet, healthy eating, exercise etc. Yet this is the 'I'm a chips kinda girl'. Never hear mention anything about gym sessions, nothing.

she surely cannot be so devoid of any personality or have so very little to say that she passed the selection stages. BB could of course realise her popularity outside and keep all these little nuggets for when the effervescent manic wannabees run out of steam.


I haven't paid any attention to that but heard Louise mentioning it. I have to keep my eye on it but I was surprised, because I thought Maisy has her own style.

I thought so too, again, goes back to no live feed so we don't see much. I'd have thought, given Louise's age: that she would be well aware that it is a huge compliment, if Maisy has been copying. But again: that takes us straight back to the OP's point of it only being about Louise as in 'as far as the eye' sees.

Quite an enigma she is. Either that or she really is as boring as she is coming over.

[Black Dagger]

She comes across as rather dull when she is on air... I thought she'd be amazing after seeing her VT but I'm bored with her.
