Rachel Rice was booed and she was white and she won.

Making out Hira was booed because she wasn't white is clutching at straws. Virtually every housemate is booed going in and coming out since about BB7.

Incorrect. Another poster (is it you? :suspect:) made these claims a few weeks ago and I rewatched those clips from launch night and Sylvia had a couple of faint boos whilst walking into the house (as 99% of housemates do, black or white) and there was no noise at all when she mentioned Sierra Leone.

Try harder next time.

Goddess Rice getting booed was a travesty.

Bet Luke paid the crowd.

Yeah, i thought the Boos were ridiculous as well. True, he hasn't done much..but, he's not had much chance. We've seen barely any footage of Zoe..less than Pav..i'd suggest (and she's done nothing special), but gets rapturous applause & cheers!!!

I thought that last night,even felt a tad sorry for him,but after today he can piss right off

Spent a whole pound on saving him. Worth it to see SB evicted.

But no more now. Call me fickle.

I'll address these points accordingly,

A white person receiving a mixed reaction does not automatically rectify a ton of other colored people being booed, I don't know what you're trying to prove. White people can get booed too? Nobody was disputing that.

"Virtually every housemate is booed going in and coming out since about BB7" is such a gross exaggeration I'm not going to address it.

The boos for Sylvia weren't faint but okay.

oh ffs the racism card is being flashed around :bored:

Just because he got booed, quite agree.

All too easy. Nearly everyone gets boos. On all polls Pav did not fair well so boos were expected at the crowd pantomime.

Because he doesn't deserve cheers, so they boo instead.

am I the only one who finds this hilarious

You will probably get a few who over-react to agree with you.

Very good reasoning.

Yes, they were I watched her entrance on youtube. No booing whatsoever came from her Sierra Leone comment either. Complete bollocks.

It's not a gross exaggeration. Every housemate gets booed. I could count on one hand the people that don't.

White people getting booed does make a difference, as people seem to be using booing as an example of racism. Rachel Rice won, was booed. Brian Belo won the year before to cheers. Racism? Bollocks.

I wasn't saying that the boos came immediately after her mentioning she's from Sierra Leone, or that Hira's came directly after she mentioned Pakistan. They were both booed going into the house, that's what the focus was on. What's complete bollocks is your gross exaggeration of how many people get booed but keep insisting on that if you wish.

The problem is that you're thinking of the voting public's racism in all or nothing terms. A white winner receiving a mixed reception doesn't cancel out the countless people of color who have been booed. Similarly, a black male being cheered doesn't mean that the voting public is never racist ever.

He is just boring as ****. Dont stand out in any way. Just take a random drone A4 person and put him in the house and its another Pav.

I never said they're never racist ever. If you actually follow the flow of discussion I was responding to a comment which consisted of "Hira was booed on her eviction in BB10" as an example of racism? :conf: How is that an example of racism.

I'm not thinking of it in all or nothing terms, I'm saying it as it is, most housemates come out to boos. Watch any eviction video from BB5 onwards on youtube and 9 times out of 10 the housemate comes out to boos.

I never said a white winner cancelled out racism, I pointed out a white woman who won the series got boos. So if the actual woman voted winner of the whole series gets boos, then they'll boo anyone.

Lisa was booed going into the house? Why is Hira and Sylvia's boos going in an example of racism? You quoted Sierra Leone and Pakistan comments followed by boos so if you weren't implying they were booed for those things then what exactly is your point?
