Put simply.......No

Just find him to be too arrogant

What show are you watching??....James j has seen what an inconsistent attention seeking live wire Austin is. He sees him as weak (which he is)...he isn't popular with the other housemates...cue James Jordan breaking the man down and hitting him where it hurts....taunting him.
When Austin started taunting him in the bedroom about dancing shoes and 'Billy Elliot' you could see JJ getting really wound up.
Once Austin goes James Jordan will find another weak character to pick on...one that other housemates may not like much because James likes to be seen as a hero to the other housemates.
He did it to Gary Busey...none of the other housemates liked him much but unknown to James the public did and his bullying and condescending attitude towards Gary backfired and gave Gary the win. He is doing the same here..targeting the annoying housemate only this time the public love it because the public don't like him either.
Wait until he targets a nicer person....and see the tide turn.
James is a vile and nasty piece of work.

Yup I had him as one of my early favourites and I really disliked James J

James Jordan winning odds have shortened a lot after last night. e'sin 4th place now, while Austin has dropped down a lot :shocked:

Imagine how popular Austin was and how unpopular James was a week ago. Its mad how they've completely switched.

Yeah crazy, i was one who did a flip on them

Austin can still turn things around. But he's so hot headed he will be fighting again at some point :laugh:

I get the impression that he doesnt want to turn it around. I think he went in to be this controversial character for the sake of being relevant. You'll always get a handful of people who root for the villain and I think he knows this.

if he had.........sure austin would be..............gone!

james j was soo...funny telling austin what for..........

Mark L

But it's not working. His winning odds are crashing down. :laugh:

I think its going to be one of those cases where unless James goes crying in the diary room about it, its ignored. And hes not going to do that...

No i find the guy.. way too boring, i think hes trying to suck up to speidi

:worship::clap1:exactly Rusti,I doubt people would like him so much if he was targeting their fave.

What an excellent post. Well said. :clap1:

Exactly Kaz...different story then :nono:

Aaaaww...thank you Nancy :wavey:

It's intriguing to see how people don't see the same nasty James that was there before...it's only because Austin is such a pathetic disliked mess that people are unable to see it.

No hes a self-obsessed attention seeking arsehole. Telling Austin a few home truths is the only good thing hes ever done.. but then thats just one twat insulting another twat so it doesn't really count

:clap1: :clap1:

Interesting. You think that James rise in popularity for now means people do not think he is nasty?

Its more a case of him having time to shine due to being a smaller knob than the bigger knob he is taking on. Thats all.

Unless he genuinely has changed of course, but I am doubtful.

I'm liking him on the show for now. :hee:

Yes :worry: I'm hoping he does something to make me hate him again soon though because I'm not happy about liking him!

I was on his side with the Austin thing but I wouldn't say I liked him yet

That's exactly what I am saying Vicky. James j hasn't changed at all..it's just people enjoy him being nasty to the other prize prat and bringing him down. However JJ comments and put downs are nasty spiteful and below the belt...Austin does it for effect..James does it in a more sinister way because he is truly vile.

Austin needs to go so James J's awfulness isn't overshadowed and we can go back to hating him again! :fist:

(I'm warming to him and he's surprisingly pleasant? I loathed this time last week, mind you)

the past is the past imo but saying that if i re-watched CBB16 I would some how dislike Austin.
