What are you actually talking about? "THIS TREATMENT"

What treatment are you talking about? No-ones given her 10 lashings with a whip!!! No-ones taken all her family hostage and demand she apologise!!!

APPARENTLY Jos had 'death threats'......so does that mean the entire country is responsible for these death threats??

NO. WE DONT CONDONE DEATH THREATS.

The small contingent of idiots who send death threats are not even part of the debate. They are imbeciles. Stop treating it like its normal behaviour that is part of the debate, practically the WHOLE COUNTRY would dismiss death threats as unacceptable.

Speak for yourself. I havnt bullied anyone nor sent any death threats nor claimed to hate anyone.

If you are being broken by this campaign for sympathy and forgiveness, then that is your own concern.

Personally, my stance on all the bullies is just to insist their removal from popular culture media outlets. I dont want them invading my conscious at unexpected moments, they have comprehensively forfeited all their rights to being worshipped or 'celebrated'.
I am speaking for myself. I am voicing my opinion, just as you are entitled to voice yours.

I only saw the last bit of the interview but in those few minutes i truely felt sorry for her. I was a big fan of her in s club 7 and seeing her treated like this is a horrible thing to watch because i was a big fan of hers

It was quite uncorfatable to watch because she was so so upset and must be under so much pressure. She doesn't deserve to be treated the way she is being treated.

I feel really sorry for her. You could tell in her interview that she was sorry so everyone should just leave her alone and give her time to get her life back on track.

Im gonna say to Jo what i think of all 3 of the sphinter squad.

Maybe they would like to, but feel some obligation to be interviewed and answer the questions the public want to hear answers on. It's better than running away and burying your head in the sand. And I admire a person for doing that. Jo has to get through this, but doesn't seem that strong a person. Imagine not being able to go out, or walk down the road, for fear of abuse or persecution. I know what she did was not right, but it wasn't as bad as this.

I agree with both of you, but I get the feeling they're going to haunt us for some time to come.

Apparently, Jade gave the money she had earned from BB to charity, including the fee she was paid to do it. Jo refuses to, as she is desperate and scared, and basically stands to lose everything - the money, the house, her career etc. She stands to lose the most.

Poor old Jo she's up Sh*t street. It's quite ironic. She's got to keep the money to keep the house but if she keeps the money she'll get even more criticism. Between a rock and a hard place. No wonder she's cracking up.

Emilee 30-01-2007 03:17 PM

It wasn't right when she said "I am not sorry for what i did" and "I would do it all the same again". She didnt deserve all of this though, Shilpa has forgave them so, so should everyone else.

Let's not forget she said that as soon as she came out of the house on Friday. Now she has seen and heard everything, and had time to reflect, she maybe sees things differently. Like looking in from the outside. Sometimes, when you see things through other peoples eyes, rather than your own, you think about things differently.

DESERVE ALL OF WHAT?

What exactly have people got in their heads that Jo is going through?

NO ONE HAS DONE ANYTHING TO HER!!!!!!!!

WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE IMAGINING???!!!!!

The thing that is getting to Jo is guilt. Why is that the countries fault?

Sam 30-01-2007 03:27 PM

At then end of the day when someones life is ruined , thats where it should stop.. I feel sorry for her and i actually feel angry with Big Brother.

True.

Guilt and her career slipping through her fingers.

andybigbro 30-01-2007 03:28 PM

Yes i do feel sorry for her

Sam 30-01-2007 03:33 PM

You people dont care because it doesnt affect you. Imagine youve been on a reality show and you made a silly little mistake and now everyone hates you and your receiving death threats. Why cant everyone just forget it. Forgive her already.

We might have proved that were not a racist country by voting Shilpa to win, but now were proving were a country who are bullies, who wont forgive. I find this disgusting.

GiRTh 30-01-2007 03:34 PM

Come on people. Pull yourselves together.

Nobody forced her to go on the show. Nobody forced her to act like a misanthropic racist bitch. Nobody forced her to act like this was totally normal behaviour when she came out. And Nobody told her continually refuse to apologise.

These are her choices and she must stand by them.

So instead of Jo taking resposibility for her behaviour, youre blaming Big Brother for filming her behaviour with cameras.

Im gobsmacked.

Chrizzle 30-01-2007 03:36 PM

Yes. Jo isn't the type to cry, she wasnt faking it.

Thats been taken out of context. I feel angry that Big Brother has ruined her life and two other young girls. They are responsible for their actions but the media hasnt helped andd made things worse.

Exactly, and whats even worse, some of these people defending them are now trying to turn it round on US, saying WE are the BULLIES and we are the ones who HATE people!!!!

Some people just dont understand anything. I feel like tearing my hair out with this s***.

The sympathy campaign is working. Its disgusting.

I am sure that Jo is going through a lot mentally. I am sure she is feeling guilty, and quite rightly so, as she should never have said/done those things. I just think that there are better deserving stories of more importance that could make the headlines of the likes of The Sun everyday apart from this issue. I am sure we have all done things in life that we regret, I know I have. Don't get me wrong, I am not condoning her actions, but maybe I am just a little more forgiving than some people. Nobody said it was the country's fault, I just think maybe people should have a little understanding towards peoples ignorances.

GlitterEyes 30-01-2007 03:42 PM

I think the treatment of Jo was alot different to Danielle and Jade. I still believe Jo was the least bullying out of the 3. I think Jo was quite a depressed character already before entering the house and now she is living in fear which is wrong. Jo did not deserve the death threats and certainly is NOT a racist person.

To be it seems that people forget Danielles role in all this and she gets away with it because of her looks and her age. Jade and Jo are older and have taken the rath alot more.

JO is a racist, a thug, bully, hater, conniving character and all things evil. How can she be forgiven I think NOT. She knew she was in the public eye from day one and too see her ugly side played out on TV what the point of forgiving when she doesn't even admits to ones own mistakes? If one don't have the guts to own up to guilt, that the bliss of pure evil playing the joker.

Not admitting to guilt is support of racism, bullying... We must be the fools in the box if she thinks she right.

Of course, thats what they do. Theyre not bullying her, theyre just reporting the most pointless garbage story out there which invloves the most controversy. Its always the same during Big Brother season, not to mention the rest of the year, and its LUDICROUS to think that the sleazy tabloids would do it any other way.

They all knew what the British media was like before they went in, and they will all have sufficient advisors and help.

THIS IS A SYMPATHY CAMPAIGN!!!!!

How the hell can you wish that on anyone? Seriously I'm not arsed what you think of my opinion of what your stupid mind has come up with, but just to stick my nails in the blackboard because I'm sick of this whole saga, maybe I hope you breakdown and fall down a set of stairs to an "untimely" death.

go on.

I seriously reckon you re-consider that post!

Of course they over sensationalize things, anything to sell papers. And it's just a discussion, between people venting their opinions and beliefs, and not a campaign at all.

Dear Oracle, Thanks for opening my eyes. Obviously you think I am just talking s hit, and have no valid points to share in this conversation. This has nothing to do with the press "having me wrapped around their little finger", I just don't like to see another human being so distressed. You are obviously much harder than me in situations like this.

How do you know she hasn't said sorry? She could of said that to Shilpa...because its her who matters in this not the public. You can see that Jo is on the verge of a breakdown and THAT is not good to see..the show is over...Shilpa has said she forgives them so people need to calm down and back off.

secrets 30-01-2007 04:17 PM

NO, they knew what they were getting into and its no good them saying things were taken out of context, because the name calling is all recorded.

The c-list ex royals are now getting in on the action!

"THE Duchess of York has weighed into the Celebrity Big Brother row by declaring her backing for Jo O’Meara.

A spokeswoman for the Duchess rang GMTV this morning after seeing Jo weeping as she was interviewed by Fiona Phillips.

Fiona told viewers: “Sarah, the Duchess of York is watching this morning. She is very upset by the Jo interview.

“She says she knows what it’s like to be vilified and misrepresented and has a lot of sympathy for Jo.” "
