Was it because they'd never heard of Shilpa?

I think so and I'm surprised no ones bringing it up.

Jade was always very respectful to Jermaine and had clearly heard of him and respected him. There's one point where she, as good as, invites him to sing at her wedding. I appreciate she may have been joking, but it was respectful.

There was talk of Li'l Kim doing CBB and I don't see Jade talking to Li'l Kim in the same way she spoke to Shilpa.
I honestly dont. Jade is definitely a loose cannon and I may be playing with fire trying to predict how she would react in certain situations. But I dont see her talking to a bigger star than her in the way she talked to Shilpa. I truly don't see Jade telling someone like Halle Berry or Cameron Diaz that she's fake and a liar over some thing as petty as Oxo cubes.

Any thoughts?

Yes, that did play a part. I think.

Youre right Grit, Jade sees people on a fame level. If she had any respect for the Indian communities opinion she would have been kissing Shilpas a*** like no tomorrow.

The thing was, Jade makes her money in the UK and Europe, so she tried to play Shilpa as the asian, counting on her European fans to back her up. That was her own stupidity which mis-judged that one. So yes, IF the role of Shilpa had been filled by a CELEBRITY from the same 'celebrity industry' as Jade, she would have kissed a*** shamelessly.

Notice Jade still used Shilpa for attention, just not in a respectful way. Jade is all about the 'money making / status' game.

BIG part of it was because she didnt know who she was.

[Emilee]

She must have felt that because she didnt know her, she could say anything to her.

Wrong idea Jade you B*****!

True, but it's Jade were talking about. That's why I may be playing with fire trying to predict her reactions.

But even for Jade, she knew that a TV show built her career and by going back in there, what did she think she was going in there for? To cause conflict? Or to get to know the HMs and play the game?

[Emilee]

Good point, hmm...

Again. This is Jade we're talking about. I don't think Jade realised she was doing anything wrong until BB told her. I think Jade gets lost in the moment and sometimes has no control over herself. I not trying to defend her at all but she seems like she doesn't know what she's doing at times. I think the Shilpa Popadom comment is some proof of that; when she heard it back she was mortified. Again, I'm not trying defending her.


I appreciate that she should have behaved better but I honestly don't see Jade telling Julia Roberts that her **** don't smell of roses and whatever else she said in that conversation.
