Transcript of what was said:

'I try not to hate anybody but [Arabs] are probably my most disliked and most distrustful person in the whole world,'

'My take on it is this: if you hate me or don't like me one time, it's OK because I don't like you ten times. And now you come back to get through that, so I was so hoping I didn't have to deal with Arabs in the Big Brother house.'

'I've never approved of them, I've never approved of them running our stores. We've got Arabs in Mississippi, I'm like 'What the *******?' We're out in the country here and you've got Arabs running this country store?'

'I was hoping there were no Arabs in the Celebrity Big Brother house'

'I try not to hate anybody but [Arabs] are probably my most disliked and most distrustful person in the whole world,' he said.

'My take on it is this: if you hate me or don't like me one time, it's OK because I don't like you ten times. And now you come back to get through that, so I was so hoping I didn't have to deal with Arabs in the Big Brother house.'

The singer, 61, also described his upbringing in Mississippi and his apparent dislike of the Arabs who live in the area, while claiming that 'black people are very trusting to people of colour'.

'But I've never approved of them, I've never approved of them running our stores. We've got Arabs in Mississippi, I'm like 'What the *******?' We're out in the country here and you've got Arabs running this country store,' he added.


what a hypocrite having a go at poor Ken. smh

No, he was talking about stores in Mississippi. It's probably like the whole LA riot thing where blacks targeted Koreans. Arabs are similar in many parts of America. They own stores and some blacks feel they watch blacks when blacks come in and aren't nice to black customers.
That's probably where he was coming from. I doubt he was talking about global politics.

Hi LT,

Alex didnt get Ken evicted, he was very discrete with him. TBH I do not see what the fuss was about, why Ken and Jeremy were evicted. I didnt see Ken as racist nor Jeremy as sexist. They are each part and parcel of today's culture the same as Alex is. On the other hand I see the young girls as domineering and pathetic, they are young and have a long way to go in life.

A lot white Americans probably think "I'm glad there are no blacks in this neighbourhood" when they move into a new house.

Black crime is a major burden on American society. Go to any youtube video about Trayvon Martin or Michael Brown and see how many people think justice was done.

I doubt it very much, if he is evicted this week then I am sure he will be glad, he is out of his depth in there really as there isnt enough fun. The usual ones are domineering the procedures, would love to see more of Alex but he is hardly mentioned. Last nights show was all about Perez and the one who is queen, his remarks to her and her overstated attitude, methinks she protested too much. For all that though, she didnt save Chloe from being nominated....no loyalty there.

Mind you I would rather say I hope that there arent any Perez' in there but of course he wouldnt have known that.

There is good and bad in all cultures and we do not know what each person has experienced in life. So far as we know nothing has been said in the house and this is what counts. He comes across as a caring person, a gentleman. I would think though that he can stand up for himself.

I think that if Alexander O Neal wants something to disapprove of he needs to look at his own race who make up 12% of the population of America yet around 50% of the perpetrators of murders, robberies, rapes. That's certainly something to disapprove of.

He has his views because many thousands of his countrymen were killed in horrific ways in recent years mainly by fanatics whom support a certain religion. And that is human nature. We all know it is mad bastards that do these crimes.

And i could say the same to you because Alexander is black. Don't you see the irony?

He has his views because many thousands of his countrymen were killed in horrific ways in recent years mainly by fanatics whom support a certain religion. And that is human nature. We all know it is mad bastards that do these crimes.

Are you a racist?No you can't say the same thing to me I never mentioned anything about his race. Not defending what a small minority have done, but that does not mean it's ok for him to BLAME every Arab.

Nope. Race was brought into CBB by the person who complained about Ken's use of language and then said something much worse about a race of people.


And you over the last few hours have said the word black on multiple occasions to make some weird point about the USA and the UK.

What exactly is your point?

Most arabs in America are actually Lebanese Christians and many are atheists and agnostic. He never said muslims. I doubt he dislikes Muhammad Ali. Read his full comment. He was clearly talking about a domestic issue of tension between arab store owners and blacks.

Fair enough. but that does not make Alexander racist. Scared maybe. I am sure he knows it is only nutters that are terrorists or those that believe that a religion should not be open to satire.

He was clearly talking about arab storeowners where he grew up and his experiences with them.

You see some people come to this forum and discuss things with passion because they believe in what they write about, some come here to argue for the sake of it and will drivel on and avoid the reality in order to try to win an argument. He forms part of the latter. And there are many of those, I wish TIBB could design a programme to auto ignore these fools.

So much has happened in past BBs I think last year it would have just been smacked wrists. New grounds now, I felt really sorry for him tbh. He slipped up in his drunken stupour. It could have all been handled differently.

BB have become hysterical this year. Total hypocrites - they whip everyone up into a frenzy with all the freaks they put in there aimed at causing friction constanly manipulating everyone into fights - then censor any free speech from the stressed, hyped-up hms.

They chuck out two hms for very little, despite all the hype, then sit back and allow some hms to insult and bully others at will. The show is a joke.

So a drunken tug at a dressing-gown, some unpopular and politically incorrect comments from an older man are unacceptable but bullying, name-calling and ganging-up on other hms is okay. Only in BBs twisted, hypocritical world.

A lot of the black on black violence is turf wars between gangs so in a way it's jealousy.
Most black people aren't involved in any crime but it's a major problem which black people are in denial about. They prefer to focus on the rare occasion when a cop kills an unarmed black boy.

Everything in life depends on the reason behind the deed. Ken wasnt being viscious to Alex, Alex just pointed out to him that in the company of some black people he wouldnt have gotten away with it. The other so called slight was once again generalising on a conversation.
.................................................. .............................
Generalising:-
Neither Ken nor Alex will suffer tbh as they are of the age where they have made their way in life. Whilst some of the public will criticise the other half will praise. This is life. Each one knows what is in their hearts. Each have their own fanbase. I do feel though that Ken may be annoyed, Alex will just carry on.

We all have our phobias, likes and dislikes, we all discuss our thoughts but naturally it doesnt go to press :cheer2:

I hope that Alex gets to the final as I would like to hear more of his singing and, I just like him......

The thing is though Alex didnt complain as such, he advised Ken that should he use the word to another black man he may be in trouble. Ken then went on to say about the children, once again Alex told him that that would also be taken the wrong way in this day and age. So far as we know Alex didnt go around talking about it, he was just being a friend to Ken.

I can remember episodes in the past when so much has been made of the same thing plus obesity, all sorts, just for camera attention. Chloe had her pennysworth with Jeremy, such a fuss was made. Nadia and Perez went to the diaryroom and threatened that they would walk out if Ken wasnt removed.....Imo Nadia made things a thousand times worse.

Freedom of speech shouldn't mean the right to say what you like without being criticised. Some people think their free speech is infringed if someone calls them a bigot. However it also works the other way. It's their right to call someone a "crazy leftie" as well.

Sounds like you would censor people's thoughts if you could. He is entitled to his opinion, whether you agree on not. Any Arab who has an issue with his comments is equally as entitled to say his/her piece on Alexander.

You cannot control people thoughts and feelings by such petty censorship.

I repeat would you say the same about someone who said they hated the French, Brits, Italians, Londoners, the list is endless - it is total PC nonense.
