According to PinkNews.co.uk Channel 5 has confirmed that, despite calling for “*****” to be shot on Twitter, a Big Brother contestant will not be removed from the house.


Danielle, who stated last week that she does not believe in same-sex marriage within the catholic church, made the statement on Twitter last.....

How stupid removing a Housemate from what they did a year ago, Well done to C5 for not doing it, it's about time they stepped up to the complaints and declined them

I doubt a homophobe would've shared a tent with Christopher last night either.

I'm laughing at people thinking she was going to Shot a gay person

She was being sarcastic like "urge just seen someone buying them ugly jeans, I want to shot him #angry"

Good, it would have been a ridiculous decision. Don't need BB to turn into a boring show of Inoffensive people.

I agree about the gay marriage thing (holding that opinion alone doesn't make someone a homophobe), but the tweets are dodgy. I mean, "step out the closet you freak", for example.

She didn't say that. She said something along the lines of "Men who use words like lush should be shot". Of course, that's no less mean spirited. I've been defending her in the house but these tweets have definitely put me off her a little.

Maybe she's lying in the house and does hate gay people, but for now I'll put the tweets down to awful wording until we get more clarification.

It's so annoying it's a reality show with different personality's some people are going to dislike different things, imo there should be no warnings for things like "die in a hole you hoe" not like that has happened, but people should learn before they complain to Ofcom that it's a reality show

I find those tweets very offensive, to be honest. Calling gay men ***** is wrong.

And Helen should be removed for prostitution? Is that not an actual crime?

Her parents brought her up a strict catholic in Glasgow, she would have been brought up with a very negative disposition towards homosexuality. God only knows what she has said with her friends but I can guess.

Well, I think a lot of it is aimed as feminine men rather than specifically gay men. But then, with the "step out the closet" thing, clearly Danielle gets the impression that these type of men are secretly gay, so I suppose if that's the case she must feel like she's aiming the word at gay men.

It's really confusing. I like Danielle in the house so these tweets frustrate me even more than they would do ordinarily.

I mean, she could have intended no offence towards gay people in general, just aiming it at the effeminate men, but they're still not great tweets either way.

Totally agree-people -are- different from each other; it's why I rage so much about the intolerance at the women in the house versus the excuses used to justify when the men do/say/think. I think the lesson here though is that, yes, this is Your (meant in general terms) planet, but it's also everyone else's and if you expect your place in it to be respected then you should respect everyone else's place too.
