The reach in this thread is hilarious rather then blame the voting public blame the 'black' girls a as 95% of them have been vile horrible and pretty much unlikable

Makosi was disliked back in 2005 because if her behaviour in the house but now is looked back on as one of the best and loved housemates of all time she made that series race has fook all to do with it x

M X 22-05-2015 11:13 PM

Yes. But I don't think it's a concious thing. The world is racist without even realizing it.

Amy Jade 22-05-2015 11:14 PM

Shilpa won.

LukeB 22-05-2015 11:15 PM

Oh yes Shilpa and Jermaine were final 2

Denver 22-05-2015 11:16 PM

Nadia women as well as Luke A both were not British plus most series has had a different ethnic housemate in the final

ruiphillips 22-05-2015 11:26 PM

Not at all. If it was explain how Makosi and Gina made it to the final instead of other white housemates? Stop reaching for the race card just because a insufferable housemates gets evicted.

Benjamin 22-05-2015 11:28 PM

I agree somewhat about there being a discrimination to black females in BB but the casting of most of the black females tends to stick to the stereotype which also doesn't help.

In this case I think Adjoa just got unlucky by BB making Nick nominate first face to face so a few jumped on the bandwagon to save themselves being put up and out. Adjoa was against two other housemates that haven't done too much wrong so she was a sure fire evictee because of the sex talk. Tbh I also don't think she was cut out for this season of BB, it's been somewhat tame and she was already falling apart.

But people STILL think she won on pity. No, she won because she was the best housemate of the series

There is definitely underlying tones of potential racism as even HMs like Jo, Nicky, Ife and now Adjoa who did nothing wrong and weren't "sassy argumentors" have been aggressively booed.

Benjamin 22-05-2015 11:31 PM

Also the odds of a black female being evicted are increased when BB cast 1/2 black females out of 16 - 20 housemates. Gina has survived to the final as did Makosi, the rest tbh were not that great as housemates.

Going back to Mel in BB1 she was hated because she flirted with men in the house that had girlfriends, not because of her skin colour.

Some on that list were unlucky,Some like Toya i liked but the general public did'nt get her attitude and some were absolute bitches.Pauline is not a good example and Gina did exceptionally well for how much her attitude stank.Some were probably evicted for no good reason but then so have many white girls.If there is an 'ism' involved i'd say it's sexism and mainly by other females.

How do we even know for sure anymore that it isn't the producers deciding who stays and goes, they took the live feed away so it would suit them what they show us so iv never really trusted the channel 5 versions of the show x

Jason. 22-05-2015 11:35 PM

I personally think there is underlying racism with the public.

I think a perfect example of this is the crowd reaction Pav received last year.

An Asian housemate, who was quiet harmless and dull at worst getting booed and chanted every single week. It speaks volumes that he got a worse reception than Steven Goode.

He did nothing wrong to warrant a heavy negative reception every single week he was up. Even on the final.

Because it's against the law

Debatable.

Mel got a hard time back then. She flirted with all the males, yet Claire (a white female) hooked up with Thomas, who had a girlfriend outside the house. And she didn't get as much of a hard time as Mel (a black woman) did for flirting with a couple of single guys.

Black women have always gotten a hard time on BBUK.

That happened after the series finished, if I remember correctly.

No. People these days are so determined to say that X is so Xist!!! when half of the time, it's the people who are preaching that X is Xish that are the ones who are Xist.

You're the one making it about skin colour, not the public.

Oh really? Explain Pauline's well received launch night reaction last year. After, the general public saw what a vile person she was and booed her. Not because she was black. Because she exhibited nasty behaviour.

So true! If it was race then she would have been booed going in x

My bad. She flirted with Craig during her time in the house.
Yet, she wasn't as hated as Melanie was.

Claire was kicked out instantly though after 1 week by the public (and it was Craig I'm sure). Mel did it over the whole season so the hate built up.

Lampfan 22-05-2015 11:49 PM

Since most of the voters are female, I guess you have to ask yourselves :D

Seriously though, who gives a flying ****?.... If we get a good series winner, who cares?

Denise Welch was a mess and she won, so where's the woman hate?

Explain why Pauline was adored on launch night.
Yet, the bookies didn't even bother placing her favourite to win, and instead placed Winston (a white man) as a favourite instead?
