I wonder if anyone in the House asked Cristian about his scar. I get the feeling he doesn't like talking about it.

Young Gandhi forgives you Luke

I love how you've spelt his name wrong on both occasions.
Cristain

Sorry, that made me chuckle. :joker:

I remember now, you were the one who left his fan club a few weeks back?

[Jason.]

I don't think he should tell anyone

A) They never seem to give him the time of day, so why should he open up to them.

B) The cynics out there would give him dogs abuse for using it a "sob story".

I think he's better off keeping it quiet, TBH.

I agree. He's coping well anyway. And he doesn't want to be pitied. I applaude him for not using it to get votes. :clap1:

He's not being anything.

Definitely one of the dullest hm's this year.

[bots]

Cristian is up there for the most boring house mate of all time. Ok, so he doesn't get involved in arguments, fine, no issue with that, but he doesn't do anything. He doesn't cook an egg, swim in the pool, throw random objects about, juggle, rap, dance, fart, smile or anything.

He just sits half comatose on the settee ... waste of a house mate space

[Vanessa]

Now the nasties are gone we are seeing more of him and i'm glad. He my be reserved, but he's a great guy and i would much rather watch him than Marc, to be honest.

[alex_front2]

Bitontheslide, he does not have to anything as he knows he will get votes for being a young innocuous decent looking guy ala BB14 Sam, so why bother?

[Vanessa]

He doesn't have the sympathy vote Sam got though. He hasn't told anyone about his past or that he's deaf in one ear.

Ive liked him from the start.

He is eye candy for the girls. Don't deny us a bit of male beauty to look at it it happens so seldom in BB.

[Vanessa]

:laugh: Lookswise he reminds me a bit of BB9 Dale. But Cristian is way better looking.

[Natalie.]

I didn't like him much at first but I do now

[Trasadkel1]

I love Cristian. He stands head and shoulders above a large majority of housemates in there in terms of brains, kindness and being supportive towards his fellow housemates. I think he has got involved in the house when he has had to to defend himself in arguments. He has also not complained when nominated like the others or when he has also been isolated by a lot of the housemates. He just gets on with things but he has also always stood up for himself when he feels he needs to. He has a very positive outlook to life possibly to do with his past.

There have been a lot of clips of Cristian having fun but unfortunately he doesn't fit the remit of talking vulgar getting drunk and playing up his character just to gain airtime like the others. He has also not changed his character when he was given the advice from showbizz like Danny and Chloe did. What you see is what you get from Cristian. He made a comment that was quite telling to Jade the night he was saved from eviction by Jack, when she advised him that he was quiet. His response was that he didn't want to feel that he had to sell himself. I think he has stood true to that. As far as we are aware he also hasn't used the fact that he had a benign brain tumour and is deaf in one ear to his advantage.

I think we could see a lot more of Cristian with Marc in the house as he is really the only one in there that looks like he is taking the time and effort to get to know him a bit more.

I agree and that's why he's my favourite. Marc seems to like Cristian a lot, but i hope he doesn't cross boundaries with him.

No I am not a fan at all but do admire the fact that he has made an effort with Cristian even though it is tormenting him.

I think that's his way to tell someone they like them. :laugh: I noticed he always sits next to him and he's the only one he has actually paid a compliment to. (Apart from Eileen).

[Mike]

I like him more than I did and I think he will probably go further than most people thought during the first week when he was mainly disliked.

Yes he does seem to keep going on about how good looking he is, almost as much as Sarah did :hehe:

It's hilarious, because Cristian has always no idea when someone fancies him. :laugh:

Cristian hasn't spoke for about 4 days so far.why is he still in the house?

A tad incorrect I think:shrug:

[Moosething]

If he looked like Jack, would u still obsess over him

[tanussa]

I've loved cristian from start & hes never done anything to let me down. a good lookin guy is always goin to struggle cos straight away hes branded, if he looks in the mirror then apparantely hes always doing it, if he exercises hes vain etc. hes proved hes a lovely young man, doesnt get offended easily, isnt at all vain I love his temperament. hes my no.1!

i love the way he comforts Eileen all the time, a true gent and right up there in my top 4 with Danby, jack and harry..4 kind hearted salt of the earth types...

[Withano]

I haven't seen anything from him to like? Every time he opens his mouth, he comes off douchy and egotistical to me.. But he doesn't open his mouth often which works in his favour.

I like Christian...however I was a bit confused tonight that, considering his intelligence, he didn't know what insecurities meant?..

[Trasadkel1]

I think, in reality, Cristian is , for someone so good looking, actually very insecure and quite shy and reserved as a person. I think it probably stems from a lot of torment he had about his hearing difficulties. I actually think that Marc is aware of this and has tended to spend more time with him. I think Cristian was probably asking more about the context of it with regard to him rather than what it meant.

[LukeB]

Yeah, after today I love Cristian even more! gone back into my top 5

[Vanessa]

Michael Phelps would die. :joker:

[Withano]

I don't know how the recent episode would make you like him more. Him venting in the diary room about dinner portions had me fuming.

Oh wait don't worry, just worked out the thread was bumped.

He's still a **** because of tonight.

[Black Dagger]

He is king

[Rorkimaru]

He doesn't look like Jack and of course that gets him a different fan base. Realities of life. Good looking people get treated better and get away with more. Jack is a slob for wearing shorts whereas Cristian is showing off his calves. It's not fair but it's unchangeable so there's not much point in losing sleep over it.

It was hardly venting and how could it be taken seriously with his line "Michael Phelps would die".

[Withano]

And the sobbing and the frowny faces throughout the rest of the episode? Or did you only see him being jokey, hilarious and hard-done by?

[Trasadkel1]

Sobbing?

[Withano]

Sobbing?

If it wasn't venting in the diary room, it was sobbing.

I kind of don't like talking to the fans who see no bad in their favourites, it's a waste of my time. I assume you're one of those people if you thought that Cristian wasn't even a tiny bit of a dick tonight.

I will see bad in my favourites but with Cristian he could not be described as a bad person in my opinion.

I think Cristian is very misunderstood. I think a lot of people had already built a negative opinion of Cristian purely on the way he looks. He was expected to live up to this image of being the big I am macho man full of confidence, pulling girls left right and centre and a clone of Marq when, in reality, he couldn't be less like him. To me it is obvious that Cristian is actually a very shy reserved person who suffers from a lack of self confidence and is easily intimidated probably as a result of bullying when he was younger. He means well but finds difficulty in articulating himself so gets himself tied in knots trying to explain his actions. If that can be described as a fault then there it is.

He should have probably just told Danny where to go as it was really none of his business if there was plenty of food and the other housemates were happy with the situation. It was blatantly obvious he was trying to cause an argument to trip him up and make him look bad. As it happened I dont think it did Danny any favours.

Well said...and Joel instigating a conversation with him pressing him into declaring things about his private life when it was obvious Christian didn't want to go there. I would have told Joel to **** off..but Christian doesn't like to offend because it isn't in his nature.
Christian is just a decent guy...

Exactly. He surprises me every day, he has handled the situation in there so well as he genuinely seems to want to enjoy himself. It's obvious he doesn't enjoy the conflict side of things.

[Lostie!]

I actually like Cristian nowadays, he was one of my strong least favourites earlier in the series.

I mean, I'm not backing him to win or anything right now, but he seems decent and I like him. :)

[Liam-]

I mean, he's not repulsive, so that's a good thing I suppose.

The guy was advised to take a smaller portion in the interest of fairness. He kicked up a fuss and explained his right to take more food. He isn't entitled to more food because he works out and its weird that he'd assume that he is.

I personally can not stand well-fed people who complain about hunger, it comes off selfish and inconsiderate.

I didn't "make up my mind" before I got to know him, my favourites and least favourites change almost every episode, I don't really know how people keep the same favourite throughout the series, people do things. Doesn't make sense to me. And most of Cristians fans exist because of the way he looks anyway, so that's a really poor argument.

Also I'm not buying into the insecure/misunderstood crap. He's on Big Brother with cameras on him everyday. People completely understand him and how secure with himself and his appearance he is.

I watched the same episode as you and he came off as a dickhead, he can easily redeem himself but if you felt as if he didn't come off as a dick tonight, you probably watched the show with rose-tinted glasses.

Think we will have to agree to disagree on this one then.

[Withano]

Think we will have to agree to disagree on this one then.

Because you like people complaining about a lack of food? Or did you see something else I didn't in the 60 minutes? Thats all he done today.

[the_answers]

Withano guess you haven't seen the FULL conversation.
http://bigbrother.channel5.com/day-30-cristian-defends-his-portion-sizes

Cristian took more of the pasta salad cos there was shed loads left for everyone else.

If you're saying he shouldn't take more cos he's bigger.
Or when there's loads freely available for everyone else then I disagree.

Seems what the pasta sald really came down to was those objecting to larger portions cos some wanted to "save it for later".

They're the selfish ones !

To ask what there is to like (fair question), all depends on what you want to see.

I agree with Trasadkel1's posts.
Question for me is....
Should he need to "sell himself" in order to win ?
I don't mean sticking up for himself, cos everyone should.
I mean show generally more of his talents.

I like gameplayers like Marc, Jade etc.
But think Cristian being true to himself also goes a long way.

It's not that he takes more, it was his reaction to being told to take less. He acted as if he was wasting away, as if he was being treated unfairly.. As if for a split second the sun wasn't shining out of his asshole.

Any well fed man who complains about food is a dickhead, if you disagree with this then I can see why Cristian appeals to you.

[the_answers]

I took it more about being called greedy than feeling hungry.

I doubt he would be complaining if he was well fed.

[Withano]

Well he is well fed, and by the sound of it, more so than everybody else in the house.

A guy who fits under that description and complains about food is a dickhead.

I don't understand why you're causing a fuss.

[Rorkimaru]

I think Cristian is very misunderstood. I think a lot of people had already built a negative opinion of Cristian purely on the way he looks.

It's so cliché to say the guy who this gif applies to is misunderstood

https://popcornographyblog.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/tumblr_lxjwy7kkl81qaliojo1_500.gif


But with Cristian I do think it's true. You can never take back a first impression and when you see someone who looks like him and is quiet (ergo not talking to you) you assume that they're stuck up and arrogant. That's a difficult thing to shake.

[duclos]

Cristian is being such a whiny baby. You have too much food so cut back and stop whining. You're not going to turn into a stick. You'll be fine.

[tanussa]

I've loved cristian from the start. he gets as involved in fun things, conversation etc. as most of HMs with the exception of the limelight stealers. he has never done anything to embarrass himself or that wud make his fans cringe. he's a lovely natured young man & the fact that he is gorgeous is a bonus.

[tanussa]

I think cristian is thinking ahead & the HMs calling him greedy will give them an easy excuse to nominate him next time, makes him vulnerable.jacks the one thats moaning on & on abt. food.

[reece(:]

He's so boring :/

I didn't expect him to be a macho man or a tart. I just expected more of a personality :shrug: and it wasn't just Danny that has a problem with Christian's greed.

[Cherie]

No it was Danny's wife Joel as well, so what if he takes bigger portions, they were also saying he ate the left overs on plates, so they must all be taking big portions if there are left over, I like Cristian has some original traits as a housemate

[alex_front2]

I wonder if anyone in the House asked Cristian about his scar. I get the feeling he doesn't like talking about it.
I don't think they have - it would be HL show fodder. Marc probably knows as he seems to know a bit about Cristian prior to entering BB, but won't go there as he can see with a shy character like Cristian it's a tricky subject to broach.

[MrWong]

He takes bigger portions without considering who else is still left to serve.

Eating leftovers isn't a big deal as a few hm's said that they didn't mind him doing it.

[just thinkin]

personality of a soggy cardboard box. the end!

[LukeB]

Wouldn't mind if he won tbh.
