There is one non-white person, which means 91% of the house is white. This is in relation to the National statistics of ethnicity, which shows that about 90% of people in this country are white.

So it's a fair representation of the population.

Well race should not be the defining issue, there lots of things that make all the housemates different. You have British non British, you have relgious non relgious, left wing/right wing. Also there have been previous winners who are Gay, Straight, ******, White, Black, Asian, British, Foreign, Female, Male etc. I am not white either and the fact there is only one Black guy does not bother me in slightest. I personally think The Sis will win this.

Its great.

They make it too diverse usually.

WAYNEEBRUM 03-01-2010 10:52 PM

Who gives a fk what races are in there.

Marc 03-01-2010 10:56 PM

Who cares

Big_Kahuna 03-01-2010 10:56 PM

I think most reasonable people have agreed that it is not the job of Big Brother to ensure some sort of demographic representation where we must see something like:
-50% lean to conservative politics,
or,
- 90% are native british 'race' (i dont like that term but you get the idea)
and
50% women and 50 men,
or,
- one homosexual every other season,
or,
30% practicing Christians (to some extent),
and on and on.
Most reasonable people are not asking for or expecting this and especially not when it comes to Celebrity Big Brother.

Having said that.
Reasonable people DO think the game is better when it does try to stick to its sociological 'microcosm' premise.
The 'little picture' of our greater society. At least sorta, kinda almost like.

Last year (I mean regular BB) there were quite a large number of justifiable complaints about hugely disproportionate representations of society at large.
and,
In many past years too.

So it might be BB is actually keeping this in mind and staying away from (slightly exaggerated example) 9 homosexual immigrants and maybe 1 single token 'conservative type white person'.
So in that sense it is good.

But really... I think it is just coincidence and it just so happened to turn out this way by 'whoever was available at the time'.

Makes no difference what colour they are.

Marc 03-01-2010 11:00 PM

I think you wil find that Sisqo is only classified as half a person. Wow is that guy short or what?

andyman 03-01-2010 11:13 PM

Close the thread.

Many will be closed during CBB.

ThisIsMarie 03-01-2010 11:23 PM

To normal people it wouldnt.

Racist people (from whichever side) though, it would.

Sorry Gavin but in a house 10 people, one of which is black, you come up with 91% of the house is black??? Which one of the white housemates is 1% black or is Sisqo 101% black? "Confused"

Someone shouldn't be put in there based on the colour of their skin, anymore than someone should be given a job based on skin colour. Ridiculous PC nonsense.

We get this every year... It doesn't matter what Race they are.
