Charley: Emily had to go

Charley: Emily had to go
BITCHY ex-housemate Charley Uchea has said it was right that fellow contestant Emily Parr was booted from the show for using a racially offensive word.
The incident – in which Emily called Charley the ‘n’ word - happened in June at the beginning of the current series of Big Brother.

Speaking at a panel session of the Media Guardian Edinburgh International Television Festival (MGEITF) called 'Mind Your Language', Charley said, "I think she shouldn't have used it - whether she was trying to 'get down with it', I don't know.”

“You shouldn't say it, whatever colour you are. So yeah, she should have been removed from the house."

Asked why she thought the term was offensive, Charley said she thought it brought back the 'olden days'.

“So many people were hurt by it, in 'slave days'," she said.

"I think the word's terrible. I didn't go on a bloody TV show to be called the 'n' word."

Am i right in remembering that Charley was the first person in the house to use the word N#gger, when she stated "I'm a n#gger"?
Now her selective memory and holier than thou attititude have kicked in to make it seem that she is little miss sunshine and innocence. She is playing the public for fools.

Again, a bullsshit thread quoting cahrley from the sun, and rediscussing something that have been discussed a million times before. Will you people get over it. Yes again, she is right, she didnt want emily to be kicked out, because emily was her friwend. But contrary to some of you people, she do understand it had to be done, for the integrity of the show. It doesnt change the fact that charley still likes emily as proved with her argument with brian. Get over it, and once a gain, the N word used by a black person, is not the same as used by a white person. If you dont understand, its because you're not black, and you dont see the difference. When a black person says it, its used as pride. When a white person says it, its used as an insult, thats just a fact. And if you dont think its right, just go around calling black people the n word. Its not illegal, so its your choice
