She is not a game player. I can see why Lauren was upset
 
She wasn't happy at being awarded as the biggest game player on celebrity BB.It looks like many haven't believed that she is a real woman or that she is nice.

She has been genuinely nervous early on I think as she knows some people will never accept her as a woman and therefore won't understand why she was nervous

and won't accept that she is nice and think she was faking that too probably because many see her as fake as a woman and therefore fake about everything else.

I believe she is nice and believe she was genuinely nervous & has gained in confidence because of Courtney and many in the public who have voted to save her.

It's like she says, she is who she is as I always thought and all her reactions have been genuine

and not a game

wish she'd climb back into her wannabe hole.

icecakes 12-09-2013 11:09 PM

she's just one big mess if you ask me, abz for the win.

Nedusa 12-09-2013 11:11 PM

It's about time someone called time on the freak show....

She is trying her very best to win,She is a game player,She's been milking as much positive air time as possible,Playing 'the dumb blonde',trying to get sympathy anytime she feels any slight negativity at all,she's played the fragile ill woman,she's put ideas in peoples heads to cause arguments and got extremely upset about being found out in the awards ceremony and some people fall for it smh.

And what's your point ?

Nothing you've said there explains why it's a bad thing or why she shouldn't win.

Please stop implying game playing is wrong. :bawling: :sleep:

Or just like this series you'll end up with a bunch of boring old farts like Vicky and Mario "just being themselves".

People love the tag "game player" when it comes to BB, so annoying LOL.

Marsh. 13-09-2013 02:24 AM

She is playing the game though. People put a negative spin that the phrase means you're a manipulator.

But it's not necessarily. She said she modifies her behaviour to be the best housemate she can be, avoid eviction and stay as long as possible and she would love to win. If someone nominates her for being messy, she cleans up etc.

That makes her a participant and "player" in the game. They all are by default.

don99 13-09-2013 02:31 AM

lauren is playing a game,whether its a good one or not will be down to peoples opinion,nothing wrong with being a player.tactics are another thing,you could say most or all have a game,just different kinds and levels

Is being a "manipulator" even wrong ?!!

I couldn't stand Sam (and thought he was uninspiring) yet by the end even I had to admire him for how I perceived he managed to fool huge sections of the public.

What's most frustrating is when BB edit the highlights and show what they want which influences the voting public.
But that's not really the HM's fault - you can only be mindful....

At the end of the day, HM's shouldn't get preferential treatment (not that Charlotte was right !) and no-one likes foul play, bullying etc.

But I really don't see what's wrong with HM's using their strategic skills to sway other HM's or the public onto their side or to their advantage.

If you can be yourself and still be entertaining then great.
But the entertaining housemate just being themselves who really doesn't give a toss about winning (and won't act accordingly or act up to the camera) is a very rare commodity indeed !

Even Charlotte and Mario cosied up to the group and dropped comments about other HM's.
Courtney wasn't particularly a game player but you wonder if even she did a few things on purpose to boost her chances in there.

Sorry but the whole thing is ridiculous.

People complain about Charlotte for not being a "good person".
But really, the issue for many is they want to be entertained more creatively than seeing HM's just using vile, bad or anti-social behaviour.

Surely there must be ONE person out there in the country with a fantastic (and swallowable) gameplan that can't fail ?
If there is, I really want to see them !
It's not like there's not plenty of room for creativity...

I think she's real and very nice.
But that doesn't mean I think she doesn't want to win or won't occasionally act. (though tbh I haven't noticed a great deal of it)

But for me, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that at all.
You can be a nice person and still act up in there - it happens all the time !

Gina herself admitted there was nothing wrong with playing a game.
She was a master at it !
Did it mean she wasn't a nice person ?
Of course not, the REAL Gina was lovely ! :)
But when you choose to act you're not being your true self anyway.

If you ask me, that's what people just couldn't get their heads round.
Some took it at face value like it was real life and she was a mean or nasty person. (understandable if you can't tell what's genuine and what's gameplaying)

If you ask me some people seriously need to drop these assumptions that
a) everyone in there should ALWAYS just be themselves 24/7.
b) if they don't and they're fooling or manipulating people in there, it's somehow bad when it might be very clever !

Yes the "real world" is a sh1t and almost everyone hates being conned or deceived.
But this is a gameshow we're talking about...

Never said it was bad,Just that i see through it.

I would recommend anyone who thinks of Lauren as a slightly dippy kindly woman, to watch the documentary 'Little Lady Fauntleroy'.

Why can't people see through her. It's really sad the way she has brainwashed people into supporting her. Really sad.

I've watched it, and she is completely dippy. She is puppeted by her parents.

don99 13-09-2013 10:27 AM

lauren has only got this far because of bias,without it she would have either gone or changed her game.
my opinion is that the makers don't bb put enough thought into cbb,its much shorter than bb so needs more effort to make it entertaining.

Brainwashed me? Don't be ridiculous. If we support anyone that you don't like we are all apparently brainwashed lmao

Lauren nervous? now that is funny :joker: Nooooo she's being her latest self to the full ! :laugh2::pat:

Fendertele 13-09-2013 12:14 PM

Even if Lauren has a game plan, so what, she's been entertaining and has given us so many comedy gold moments.

DanaC 13-09-2013 02:00 PM

I don't see her as a fake woman. I see her as a woman who is fake. Just like her fakey fraudster family.

Nowt wrong with that. She's a contestant in CBB.
