Gemma represents a large cross section of our dumb down society today and she has a massive following from towie. People who vote for her are supporting mirror images of themselves and even though they may not be as big, their values seem to be parallel to hers, hence her popularity. It was the same last year with Katie Price. Speidi nearly won it, Rylan did and this years antipost fav was tiff because of the way some people thought she was going to be. Gemma is only favoured because she champions some peoples lifestyles and provides an excuse for a lot of overweight viewers that want her to win and be popular s as to make some sence of their own shape and lifestyle.

The fact that she is funny or quick witted is lost on some people, its more to do with people championing their own failed and abhorrent life styles. Obviously she has thin fans as well but they are generally the ones that like the controversial characters.
