James on The Apprentice

[Pete.]

I find that the James we are seeing in the house and the James that was present during the Apprentice were two separate people. James came across as very misogynistic as he would only pick arguments with women who he felt were weaker than him like Roisin. He would also argue in a very ugly way:

duaoSxgcn4k

Reflecting onto CBB, the only person he's fought ferociously with was Farrah when (although Farrah was mostly in the wrong) there was one time in the lounge when I thought James was going to push Farrah.

Anyway me thinks James' personality in the house is mostly false and he's trying to hard to meant his 'hard' image.

[Daniel.]

What a legend

[Amy Jade]

great post pete :clap1:

I remember him always having digs at Roisin.

[Daniel.]

I see nothing wrong with that row, seems equal to me.

But let's pretend he was horrible to her because she's a black female and therefore must be a KWEEN

[Vanessa]

James was the best thing about The Apprentice. Absolute legend! :worship:

[Jordan.]

Completely different scenarios really. They have to be more outspoken and competative in the apprentice to stay in the competition. BB is way more relaxed.

[Pete.]

I see nothing wrong with that row, seems equal to me.

But let's pretend he was horrible to her because she's a black female and therefore must be a KWEEN
I never said he was horrible to Bianca he just fought with her really aggressively and compare that with how he fought with Farrah :shrug:

The only person he was horrible to was Roisin and I mean uncomfortably horrible

[Liam-]

I didn't watch the apprentice so I'm judging him from what I've seen in the house and he's just a narsassistic dullard.

[Jason.]

I don't get what his appearence on Apprentice has to do with his time in the house. If I was to judge housemates based on appearences on other shows. Then Alicia Douvall wouldn't be my CBB15 favourite as she was a dick when she was on Love Island. You seem to be letting your hate on him on another show affect what you think of him in the CBB house. Like fair enough if you dislike him in the house, but I've seen you mention his Apprentice appearence on more than one occasion, so I think you only dislike him mainly due to the fact he probably yelled at one of your Apprentice faves or something...I don't know, I don't watch the Apprentice.

[Daniel.]

I would say it was the other way round regarding him pretending he's not himself in the house, he obviously amped up himself up in the apprentice and the James in the house is more reflective of his true house as he's filmed 24/7, you can't be anything but yourself.

[LukeB]

Bianca wasn't weak and James still argued with her :laugh:

but The Apprentice was only on 1 hour a week and we only seen them do tasks and stuff nothing behind the scenes much!! The Apprentice looks really stressful.

He has been great on CBB and we should judge him on how he is on the show, Same with Farrah we should judge her based on CBB not because of her being on teen mum.

[Daniel.]

I never said he was horrible to Bianca he just fought with her really aggressively and compare that with how he fought with Farrah :shrug:

The only person he was horrible to was Roisin and I mean uncomfortably horrible

Because Farrah was being an out of order ott **** as per usual, what was he meant to say?

People are judging Farrah by calling her a slut but she's always been fully dressed in the house, and she's clearly not sleeping around soooo why don't you clock them for judging her from outside the house?

[jet]

James really entertained me on the Apprentice. :hehe: That show is a different animal - it's dog eat dog and they are all as hungry as each other. In the quieter moments of the show when they weren't on a task James was much the same as he is now on CBB.

If I'm being honest James has done very little on the show for me to judge him on but I don't think he's 'nice' on the account of how he's appeared before the show and the fact he's a convicted criminal. People go on less to hate other housemates in the past (Zoe springs to mind)

[Jordan.]

Not a convicted criminal

[Jason.]

I've never seen anyone judge Farrah because she's a slut. If I do, I will also clock them. The only hate I've seen Farrah get is because she is nasty.

Also, slut is a bit different. I mean we're comparing slut shaming (which is wrong, I agree) to criticising what someone did on another reality show. Like that's not really judging her based on her outside. Unless people think being a porn star makes someone a slut, which is just the person's ignorance if anything.

[Daniel.]

Not a convicted criminal

King to beat me

:clap2: true say. But Cami-Li has quite a big following on here and she glassed her ex-boyfriend in the face, which is hardly ever brought up on here or in general.

[Jase.]

Queen Bianca Miller will not be restricted by James.

[Pete.]

:clap2: true say. But Cami-Li has quite a big following on here and she glassed her ex-boyfriend in the face, which is hardly ever brought up on here or in general.

:think: I think she was overshadowed by the more awful people on that series

[Jason.]

:think: I think she was overshadowed by the more awful people on that series

I thought she was one of the more awful people of that series, tbh. She's just forgotten because...well she isn't Perez Hilton or Katie Hopkins who were shoved down our throats and are pretty much the face of that series.

[Amy Jade]

I've never seen anyone judge Farrah because she's a slut. If I do, I will also clock them. The only hate I've seen Farrah get is because she is nasty.
I can't take this seriously.

[Jason.]

I can't take this seriously.

:umm2:

I've seen nobody calling her a slut on here. Mind you, I don't read every Farrah thread like you probably do. The only comments I've seen relating to her career is when people say she's trashy or not classy or something along the lines of that. Which isn't the same as being slut shamed. So I don't get your snide comments and I'm not here for them either.

[the truth]

they were nearly all ignorant narcissists on that apprentice series and these 2 certainly were

[Daniel.]

[Macie Lightfoot]

I don't think James has done anything so far for people to act like he's nice and chilled out and this and that. He's just there :shrug: He was a huge wanker on the Apprentice and I think it's entirely relevant because his appearance on the show is why he was cast for CBB in the first place.

[Margarine.]

James' attitude on The Apprentice isn't really applicable to his behaviour in the house though, is it?! They're two different formats.

Yes, he could be selfish: but that's the business market. He had to be selfish and cover his own back to succeed.

The whole premise of The Apprentice often sees people think tactically in the boardroom - you identify people as being weak in order to remain in the competition. The other nineteen candidates did the same thing week in, week out. James wasn't alone in his attitude. :joker:

I agree he hasn't.

I mean apparently he's chilled out and relaxed :umm2: nothing at all to do with people liking how he looks.

[Daniel.]

Can you stop going on about he we only like him for looks it's boring

I like the way Justin Bieber looks, it doesn't mean that I'm not willing to admit he's a tool. :joker::joker:

I have seen you mention James' looks more than any of his so-called 'fans'.

[Daniel.]

Also I'm a straight male so me liking his looks doesn't make sense

[Vanessa]

He's a nice guy, good looking and interesting. I think that's why people like him.

[Amy Jade]

No. I'll say what I want.

[LukeB]

but it's ignorant tho :joker:

[Daniel.]

Excuse me you cant tell a straight male like me that I like someone for their looks

[Amy Jade]

I'm not willing to change how I think to make other forum members like me. Not my thing, I'll carry on saying what I think and you can call me ignorant all you want :)

[Macie Lightfoot]

I mean there's a thread about whether James is the hottest housemate EVER lmfao so it's not like his looks aren't a factor :joker:

I could make a thread asking whether Austin is the hottest housemate EVER, it's irrelevant to whether people like him or not.

[Daniel.]

I used to think Dale was the hottest housemate ever, but I still detested him. Theory out the window!

[Amy Jade]

Us caring

Well clearly you do :laugh2:

[LukeB]

I hate Justin Bieber but i find him hot, i might make a thread asking if he's hot :)

[Lostie!]

lHe was a huge wanker on the Apprentice and I think it's entirely relevant because his appearance on the show is why he was cast for CBB in the first place.

I have to agree. If the sole reason why someone is even on the show is irrelevant, then their status as a housemate is rendered pretty much invalid, isn't it?

The nature of the competition doesn't in any way excuse James being pretty dickish throughout the process, and it's certainly not the case that he merely behaved in the exact same way as every other contestant (or that the format of the show necessitated it).

He was overbearing and aggressive as Project Manager, and not simply in an 'effective PM' way, but in a "This guy is a knobhead" way. Plenty of contestants have gotten through the process without acting in the exact same way.

I also remember him admitting to cocking up in regards to certain aspects of his behaviour on You're Fired, so criticism of him on TA clearly isn't entirely unwarranted (but at the same time, I really respected him admitting to his faults and he was extremely more likeable on YF).

[Jordan.]

I agree he hasn't.

I mean apparently he's chilled out and relaxed :umm2: nothing at all to do with people liking how he looks.

People have given you valid reasons for why they like him outside of looks. If you want to bury your head in the sand and ignore it that only makes you look dumb.

[Daniel.]

No Amy I don't care if you think I change my opinion to make people like me, don't know why you got personal with me, last time I checked we were friends?

[Amy Jade]

No Amy I don't care if you think I change my opinion to make people like me, don't know why you got personal with me, last time I checked we were friends?
I'm not getting personal, I just said I'm not willing to change my opinion just to be liked. That's about me nobody else.

If anyones being personal its Jordan calling me dumb but I value him doing it in person rarther than through 3rd party like last time :)

[Jordan.]

I think you need to calm down. Who said they didn't like you because of your opinion on a tv show?

[Jordan.]

Excuse me you cant tell a straight male like me that I like someone for their looks

I screamed

[goldensunlight]

His Apprentice antics were the most entertaining of anything that happened in that series. :worship:

Bye at the old "because she's a black girl" bull **** being brought up but people then snapping when its suggested James is only like because of his looks :laugh:

[armand.kay]

Back on topic... James was a bellend on the Apprentice but he was also alright and funny sometimes so clearly he's not his apprentice self anymore as he isn't at all funny so I wont use his apprentice gig against him.

[Pete.]

Also I'm a straight male so me liking his looks doesn't make sense

[EspeonBB]

He was AWFUL on the Apprentice. He was just really obnoxious and he stole lots of screentime too :yuk: Plus he was a massive sexist and he only picked arguments with the women, like Roisin and Bianca (when Roisin destroyed him in that boardroom and got him fired <3)

In other words, he delivered. :hehe:
He's certainly learned how to deal better with yappy women. :laugh:

[goldensunlight]

uh Sarah, Steven, Daniel, Bianca, etc.
I don't even remember Sarah. Steven was entertaining for one episode and James made Bianca relevant.

[Macie Lightfoot]

I don't even remember Sarah.

Not 2011 having a good series of the Apprentice...cause you know 2011 was a crap year for most reality TV shows.

I've done my research about the show (cause I'm sad like that) and it sounds really good. I'm actually looking forwards to it. The only clips I've seen from last years series is a clip with Steven Ugoaluh (sp) and I found him funny.

Also welp at someone called Mark Wright being in it and actually winning the thing.
