Oh No. They probably think that the UK is the scum of the earth.

[Jords]

oh no

[Raph]

No, this could be so detrimental to the show! :shocked:

This is why I can't stand Deana the victim - she started with that racism accusation. If anything, Adam was the victim of racism, not Deana. Deana was not liked by Conor and a few others and Conor took it too far, but nothing we heard from him was racist.

Conor has no reason to hate her therefore it could still well be on the cards but hes surpressing the racist remarks.

I dont think so but in Deana's shoes it was always gonna be a possibility when receiving such hate for no apparent reason.

[sarakss]

Funny thing is the racist accusation Deana made was towards Chris not Conor. Conor does not like Deana and I think it's due to being nominated by her on day 1. It's an ego thing he's held from the start. Racist, no. Don't accuse people of something like that just because they don't like you.

No one has to like anyone.

Deana is pathetic at making friends and I doubt she'll keep in touch with anyone from the series. She has no sense of loyalty and it's all about her.

The article says more about Deana being bullied and Adam being racially abused... Deana didn't say she felt it was racism so I don't know what you mean.

That's my problem with the article. The article tries to make it another Shilpa racism incident, but if you read it the only possible target of racism in this article is Adam.

Deana did tell Lydia that she felt the reason Chris - back in the early weeks - did not like her was due to racism. She threw that out there week 1 or 2. Remember Chris was the second person to leave.

[Jake.]

I just hope that this negative press has a positive outcome in the ratings...even just a slight rise!

[Yayita]

Sarakss you need to pay attention before making up things that arent true.

[Marc]

Oh dear, next BB won't be sending in any Asian people

[Jords]

No Indians Allowed

[Petershaw1984]

Oh ****

[sampvt]

I said the race card would come in soon. What a load of ****e, get this woman out before she looses and takes ch5 to court. That is her types way. She will end up ruining the series for sure if she dosent win it. Now we know why ch5 is protecting her.

Oh for God sake, she HAS NEVER accused ANYONE of racism!

[Livia]

Oh for the love of God... Deana hasn't played the race card. And frankly, people continuing to claim that she has makes them look a little racist themselves.

So some Indian papers have made a mountain out of a molehill. Luckily that doesn't happen with the British press, does it.

Eloquently put, as usual Livia! :thumbs:

In the early days before she became the focal underdog, she threw a comment out there to one of the HM,s that CHRIS DIDNT TALK TO HER AND SHE THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE SHE WAS BLACK. That is roughly what went down but it has snowballed. Chris said nothing and she knew what she was doing.

She's playing the racist card as well. This just gets worse. I want to like Deana, but she makes it so hard! Everything about her is so cold and calculating! :bored:

Actually what she said was: "Chris hasn’t spoken to me at all and he’s spoken to everybody else. I’ve not done anything for him to not like me. I’m beginning to wonder if it’s because... you know? You know what I mean?"

Which the Daily Star then decided to try and make out was a racist accusation when she could have been referring to literally anything http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/view/257011/Big-Bro-new-race-row/

I don't even like Deana but tbf it's not her who's making a "race row" out of this

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

This is all we need.

[sampvt]

In life you dont always have to utter words. Gesticulation and eye movements say more. It is 100% certain what she meant and there was no need for it UNLESS SHE WAS TRYING TO CURRY FAVOUR BY HER ACTIONS. Yes she meant it, no she didnt say it fully but it was understood. In future BB,s they will noty let Lesbians, gays, transwhatevers, blacks, chinese, irish, bullies, gob****es and idiots in.

All future contestants will be drawn from the boy scouts and the young conservatives.

[In the Drunk Tank]

How was it understood though, we weren't even given any context. Deana and Chris actually got on ok iirc, she said she wanted him to stay

[Livia]

What makes me laugh is that, every year, when someone doesn't like a housemate they try to make out that they're some Machiavellian mastermind with the game plan of an evil genius... today Big Brother, tomorrow THE WORLD! And heaven forbid that it should be someone black… or Asian… or gay… then obviously that housemate will be accused of using whatever card suits the agenda of the forum member posting at the time.

[Mesene]

Exactly she even clearly said Conor hates her because she nominated him in the first week.

She never said he was racist
