View Full Version : Jo thinks BB should be axed.....

Jo O'Meara has admitted that she thinks Big Brother should never return for another series.

Speaking in an interview with Sky News, the former S Club 7 singer criticised the show's "cruel" nature and claimed once again that footage of her time in the house had been edited unfairly.

"I just think the whole thing has been so unfair and so cruel and that I've not been portrayed as the person I really am," she explained. "I can't even go out. I've been locked in a room for a week. I feel if this is what a TV show does to people then it shouldn't be a TV show."

O'Meara confessed that it was a huge shock to be accused of bullying Shilpa Shetty - as she has nothing but respect for her "graceful" nature and "got on fine" with the Bollywood actress.

"I don't know why people keep saying I never liked Shilpa, I just didn't bond with her as much as I did with other people, but we got on fine," Jo continued. "She's one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen and she's graceful and a true lady, but none of that ever seemed to get across in the right way or it was made to look like I was being horrible to her the whole time."

Commenting on her current state of mind, she said: "I have got to pick the pieces up or I will end up going mad - more mad than I am. I don't think you can get much lower. They say you have to hit rock bottom before you can build yourself up. I just hope I'm at the bottom now."

So when she wanted to keep having goes at Dirk - so that he would "crack, mother*******er crack", and that would only need "a little push to tip him over" the unfair edit was that they actually showed it ?

Yeah - Right - Whatever

Blame everyone and take no responsibility

yeah, she's right - their editing made this such a problem. Channel 4 and endamol could have cut all the bad bits but instead they wanted to make it better viewing. so in a way it's ruined the lives of Jade , Danielle and Jo. But i would still like to see BB running...and hope that the girls get over this

Oh come on......... why should they edit it to show her in a GOOD light. She said it so take responsibility for your actions and stop blaming other people for your mistakes

So they should have edited out the bullying
Edited out the arguments
Edited out the somewhat racist comments

Why ?

Because it makes some people feel all cosy and warm by pretending it didn't happen, as opposed to facing the harsh truth that the three of them were vindictive manipulating bullies and showed our country for what it is rapidly becoming, an ignorant lout filled hole

Exactly, why should millions of BB fans have to suffer just because she claims her life has been ruined by BB (which might i add is aload of tosh, she wasn't in a fit state to start with way before BB).

It just shows how selfish she is by only thinking of herself.

I`m still trying to figure out the purpose of this interview.The only new and significant part was calling for BB to be cancelled.
I`m told she wasn`t paid and I know she wasn`t there to clear the air ,so what was it all for,I don`t get it??.Was it a ploy by Sky to start the` finnish BB` campaign or what??

The "I was edited unfairly" argument doesn't really wash that well with me: if you don't say any comments that could be perceived as racist, then you cannot be portrayed as a racist!

Sky got in contact with her and wanted to hear her side , but Jo didn't accept the money and offered to do it for free

Exactly.
And besides, does she really think BB's going to be axed. People know, or should know anyway, full well what they're going into before they go in. So she's only wasting her breath!

I am sure she didnt want it to be axed when she was getting a hefty sum to appear on the show and just because she's come out of it looking bad she lays the blame on the way the shows edited but they cannot edit you to say things you have not said so get over it.

I never said it should be cancelled, Im saying SHE has a right to believe this. Doesn't mean that her opinion is the right one.

She claims BB manipulated her footage of her racist bullying. Yet in the very same interview (available on sky news site) she claims to have not even seen the footage in question.

:puzzled:

FFS even ian, her best mate, said she bullied Shilpa.

Jo is complusive liar who is trying shift the blame away because karma has hit home.

It seems there is much more footage of them behaving badly, so I guess they didn't use it all.

Should they have done what they did with Jodie Marsh and cut it every time she talked about Jordan, which was only cut as Jordan could have sued their ass off. This changed the aspect of the show showing that Jodie was being bullied when she had already been told that her words about Jordan were offensive, but continued anyway.

Um...but why should they cut out the bad bits? Aren't we supposed to be seeing the housemates 'warts and all'? Wouldn't it be unfair if everything nasty that someone said was not shown?

So...Jo wants it to be axed? That sounds like someone stamping their feet and throwing a tantrum - just because it didn't go her way, she wants it gone.

The problem is finding the right mix of people. I'll be surprised if there's another CBB. Who'd go on it? There's probably only Jade, Jo and Danielle who are desperate enough to go on.

i'd hate to see it cancelled but i think this rascism thing was taken a bit too far. The UK becoming all high and mighty about rascism puuuleeeeasse! i'm sure everyone makes unintentional "rascist" comments from time to time. Bullying however was rife in that house not racially motivated though but i dont think ruining jo jades and danielles lives as much as we have will make up for it.

I think Jo has a point.

As is evident just reading the vacuous bile on this board, the program has attracted a following of dullards, gullible morons and ignorant, arrogrant self-righteous pontificators who feed off the lies printed in tabloid newspapers and feel nmot a shred of remorse at casting aspersions on others. These people, I imagine, have probably done far worse things in their lives than any of those girls did on what is, and people seem to forget, a game show manipulated in such a wretched way to get viewers.

I find myself isolated on this board, frankly (yes there are a few decent people here I like but they're in a tiny minority). Coming here I feel like I'm sinking in a swamp of stupidity with just my fingers poking from the top. I keep promising to go away and I will eventually, I promise.

I feel like emigrating to a country where there is normality as its clear to me, as it is to John Cleese who made the comment recently, that this country is a mad house. We're run and told what to think by newspapers and the government. It's like a hidden fascism without the stormtroopers.

Before pontificating on swamps of stupidity, it may be wise in future to get someone to proof read your tome for spelling errors, grammar, punctuation and plain ol'l ignorant typo's.

Not all of it is vacuous bile, and not everybody believes everything they read in the tabloids, and not everyone is making assumptions and slating the girls. A lof of it is informative and good to discuss. Noone asked you to post here, so if feel you are "sinking in a swamp of stupidity", you know what to do.

I think there are many informative and interesting discussions on this forum.

I find you comments somewhat elitist. It seems you're questioning the intelligence of people who merely disagree with you and have a strong point of view.

Some of the posts on this forum are over the top and death threats to the HM's are appalling but how seriously are we to take them - hasn't the actress who plays Tracy Barlow in Corrie received death threats?

It's time to concentrate on the positives of CBB. Shilpa is a great ambassador for her country and is conducting herself with the class and elegance we all thought she would. But let's not forget the negatives and here is a great forum for us to discuss them.

I have to say, I have not agreed with everyone here, I have had debates with several people over the race row, but...

Although our opinions differ their opinions are always credible and I always respect other people's opinion.

I think you'll find there is only a minority of people on here who wish nasty things on those involved in the race row, apart from what they may feel is just.

Yes there have been nasty things said about the girls, un necassary things even, but these girls including Jo also said nasty, un necassary things, and that is undeniable.

" the program has attracted a following of dullards, gullible morons and ignorant, arrogrant self-righteous pontificators who feed off the lies printed in tabloid newspapers "

I my self am not a fan of the media, and I think you'll find alot of people on these boards are not either.
What has been posted in the media has not ALL been lies - the girls have said these things. And if that is how you want to look at it, then you yourself must admit that when the newspapers say "Jo/Jade has breakdown" "Jade goes to rehab" ...these too must be lies??

Ofcourse everyone has made mistakes, but at the end of the day people saw something on TV which they did not agree with and decided to do something about it rather then sit back and let it happen, and you cannot persecute these people for doing so.

Go one then, emigrate... but you'll find the same thing anywhere you go mate. This world has been far from perfect probably since the beginning of time.

I don't know anybody who has lived their life impeccably. Do you? I certainly haven't. I hold my hands up and admit I have made a lot of mistakes in my life and have been horrid to people who were good to me and done things I shouldn't have. But I've learnt and have tried to better myself.

Jade, Jo and Danielle are not bad people, theyt just have a lot of growing up to do. People should just back off and leave them alone now.

Your comment does not suggest that only some of it is, otherwise you should have stated "As it is evident reading the posts on here, some of which are vacuous bile, .......". By saying "just reading the vacuous bile on this board" implies, to me, in my opinion, that all of it is.

I never said I knew anybody that has not made mistakes.

But that does not mean we should not stick up for someone who is being treated appallingly!

Jade admitted her actions were wrong, Danielle admitted her actions were wrong, do you think they would have done this and acknowledged this if everybody had sat back and smiled, and said "hey, it's only a gameshow"

It is not the people on here that are not leaving them alone, I doubt Jade/Jo read these posts, it is the media that is not leaving them alone, so take your problem to them instead of venting your anger towards people on these boards.

Admittedly, but your comments are only as clear as they are perceived by other people, not yourself, so it always best to be concise. And FYI, I was one of the people who was saying we should lay off the girls from week 1, and got accused by others of being sucked into "the sympathy campaign". Not that I give a **** about that.

I don't know anybody who has lived their life impeccably. Do you? I certainly haven't. I hold my hands up and admit I have made a lot of mistakes in my life and have been horrid to people who were good to me and done things I shouldn't have. But I've learnt and have tried to better myself.

Jade, Jo and Danielle are not bad people, theyt just have a lot of growing up to do. People should just back off and leave them alone now.

I never said I knew anybody that has not made mistakes.

But that does not mean we should not stick up for someone who is being treated appallingly!

Jade admitted her actions were wrong, Danielle admitted her actions were wrong, do you think they would have done this and acknowledged this if everybody had sat back and smiled, and said "hey, it's only a gameshow"

It is not the people on here that are not leaving them alone, I doubt Jade/Jo read these posts, it is the media that is not leaving them alone, so take your problem to them instead of venting your anger towards people on these boards. [/quote]

Yes I agree we should highlight errors of improper conduct and behaviour which come to light on a television show, but that doesn't mean we should demonize these people guilty of it as hate figures.

And I am not directing any anger at anyone on this board, I questioning people's intelligence when all they have to do is talk about tabloid stories and take everything written as fact. My anger is towards the newspapers believe me. I've had a problem with the tabloids since the death of Princess Diana, but what can I do alone against Rupert Murdoch's newspaper empire and the Mirror group? If I told them what I have said about them on these boards they would laugh in my face

This is much more of an intelligent reply than the other two.

I don't see myself as an elitist, but I am a belligerent so-and-so and a bit of a Billy no mates at Tibb. I doubt anyone reads anything I post here anyway!

Thank you for acknowledging the points that I made in my post. I'm honoured, I'm sure.

Why are you so bothered about being Billy no mates if you' call yourself belligerent.

What has been posted in the media has not ALL been lies - the girls have said these things. And if that is how you want to look at it, then you yourself must admit that when the newspapers say "Jo/Jade has breakdown" "Jade goes to rehab" ...these too must be lies??

A very good point. There must have been lies on both sides of the story. I have little sympathy for the girls as I know they're trying their damndest to spin this their own way.

I agree with this too, but I fear they value their celebrity status much more than their dignity. I notice that only the Star has a CBB headline and it's a Shilpa related headline. Maybe, people are already starting to leave them alone and concentrate on the positive.

Your comment does not suggest that only some of it is, otherwise you should have stated "As it is evident reading the posts on here, some of which are vacuous bile, .......". By saying "just reading the vacuous bile on this board" implies, to me, in my opinion, that all of it is.

Not really as in the same post I said there a few decent posters here but they're in a small minority.

Well that's up to them to decide isn't it. I am happy to clarify any ambiguity.

In addition to my suggestion on proof reading your posts, I would also suggest lessons in comprehension.

I'm intrigued by the different routes Jo, Jade and Danielle have gone down since coming out of the house. Jade appeared on every talk show going (especially those hosted by people who share her manager) to say how sorry she was, how disgusted with herself she was, and of course she's got two children, so we can't hate her. Then she checked herself - very publicly - into the Priory, only to decide that actually she can't be bothered with all that, and leaves a few days later.

Jo tried every spoilt brat's method of stamping her feet and saying, "It's not my fault, it wasn't me, it's your fault, you've made me look bad." When that doesn't work she turned on the waterworks.

Danielle decided instead to say how desperately sorry she was and then inform everyone that "it's much worse for me, my Teddy's dumped me, hang on a minute while I get my kit off."

Not one of them actually comes off as caring about the way their behaviour affected anyone else - they just seem to be bothered about what effect it's hand on them.

Now, don't get me wrong - I don't like or trust the media. I don't agree with witch-hunts, and I think the idiots making death threats are stupid and pathetic (but as GRiT pointed out, most celebrities receive death threats, although obviously that doesn't make them alright.)

Jo, Jade and Danielle are probably not bad people. To me, a bad person is someone like Ian Huntley or Adolf Hitler. But I don't think those girls are nice people either, and their behaviour in the house was bad. We've all done bad or stupid things, we've all said things that we know we shouldn't have said. But that doesn't make it okay.
