Can't grasp a simple game but 'runs' two businesses..
 
Welcome to the world of reality TV stars, use your name to make money and get everyone else to do the hard stuff!

Two businesses that are soon to go under. she isn't a good business woman, she too lazy to succeed and her businesses as you put them, are little more than franchises using her name that seem to be struggling according to the media reports.

Actually she runs to the local takeaway twice a day

She puts her name to two businesses.
I doubt she does the every day stuff others do.
She has "people" to do that for her.
She probably checks in once a week to see how it's doing & that's it.
She is not a business woman.
She must have to take her shoes off to count to 20 :laugh:

The weight jibes are just getting really boring and unnecessary now. Fair enough if you dislike her but surely you can find something else other than her weight to justify why you dislike her.

Don't shoot me down for this but doesn't Gemma make money from her weight with her plus-size shop :shrug:

Not wishing to speak ill of the dead, but Jade Goody also tried to run a business, made the mistake of trying to run it with family and friends and no idea what it takes to run a business at all, so that business went under pretty quickly. To run a business needs the business savvy, and hard work that goes along with the cash behind it or it's a fail before it even starts. The likes of the Gemma Collins of this world will hardly ever succeed in running a business.

So?

That doesn't give you the platform to just throw jibes at her weight just because she owns a plus-size shop.

Well you're bringing up the fact she makes money of her weight or whatever and she owns a plus-size shop to my original post where I saying was jibing her weight wasn't called for.

What does that have to do with anything? Does her owning a plus-size shop open her up to a barrage of ridicule over her weight? :shrug:

Oh get off your high horse, will you. PC about what?

Making uncalled for puns and comments like "she cant' run" and jibes like her running a business called "rent a tent". :rolleyes:

It's not personal at all, it's just tiresome and boring. You can't have a negative Gemma thread without a weight jibe being attached to it by post 3. It just makes you come across really unintelligent that you have to resort to insulting somebody's body appearance to justify your dislike for somebody. But then again, I'm talking to one of the few members who condoned Winston's homophobia, so there's really no point in carrying this conversation any further is there?

I think you are getting way too angry over this.
Calm down.
Gemma signed up to be on the show & is being well paid for it.
Some would say she is fair-game.
I personally have not made any insults about her weight. My point was that Gemma does not seem sensitive about it & even makes money out of it.

LukeB 17-01-2016 12:57 PM

I agree with Jason!

the constant weight jibes/fat shaming about Gemma is getting really boring now and old.. it's not really a nice thing to say. So what she's the way she is nothing wrong with that.
