I think Tom is being promoted as the new chosen one.

Yes!..i've noticed that his many faults are never highlighted and that we are being conditioned to think that this scheming coniving little back-stabber is some kind of innocent little adorable hedonist!

But it's not going to work in my house!!...he's ...and he probably has wormed his way to a free ride to the finals!!

I am only going to make one post in this thread, and that's only because I understand what people are saying and how what happened came across so I get why folks are reacting to it like they are.

I am just going to say I know it isn't true, Alex just made it up to put something shocking on her form to get attention from the producers (as all HMs do), and that doing that was a misjudgement on her part. That is all she is guilty of in this instance though. A bit of childish stupidity when she and her mates were filling forms in.

The act described though simply did not happen. It was made up.



I get that fans of other HMs will seize on this little story and use to to bludgeon Alex with, and I get that it's not in those people's best interest to acknowledge what I am saying, and I get the kind of answers this post will see, but I say it anyway.

The posters here can go for the throat, or they can be interested in the truth. Seeing as Jem has been treated in the recent past i suspect the former, but at least it's been said.

Now, I know we play BB and forum politics here, and I know we all have little chips at each other, but I hope people understand the difference in the tone of this post compared to the game of BB I usually play here on this forum in the spirit of the game show.

And how do you know that exactly? Or are you just claiming that because it doesn't fit with what we've seen of Alex in the house?

I think what is shocking is that BB reveals that info at this point in the game.......Trying to meddle with the outcome it seems.

When you consider what that dirty slob hound Jay say's and does and people like him and Aaron con man of the century manipulating a youngster for air time it beggars belief some are getting their knickers in a twist over a laps of judgment by Alex from something in the past. None of which needed to be revealed by BB..........

Exactly

The tried the same trick on BB3 when they used to have at the weekend the talking heads (I actually liked the insights they provided normally)

In BB5 when Michelle Bass was leading over the chosen one, Nadia, a whispering campaign began and then they all went up. I was her Cyber Devil's Advocate at the time and it was highly suspicious, as is the timing on this

I totally agree, there is a question on the application from 'what is the worst thing you've ever done'...I know someone who totally expanded her answer to this question to try and get further, as I don't think is unusual...
Let's forget the fact that Faye will sleep with someone for money, Jay bangs on about giving the money to his mum and not earning much, while buying a £55,000 car for himself....and just concentrate on Alex..people can make of it what they will, it doesn't change my opinion of her one bit...
It's also very interesting that BB chose to disclose this, which to me was in a different vein completely to the other H.M's disclosures...dispelling all myths that Alex is a favourite.....the reverse in fact......pfft

See this would be all that more believable if she didnt try to justify her actions when it came to light. Which kinda said it was true.

If it was a lie to make herself sound more outrageous on the application form, why would she continue the lie(and expand on it) when she was inside the house, knowing full well that she would look bad for it?

Well she was stuck between a rock and a hard place...she goes with it..or admits she lied on her applic form..damned either way....
I don't condone it...but I forgive her for it....we've all done s**t we're ashamed of....one thing doesn't make her a bad person

LOL not really. Everyone lies/exaggerates on those forms, pretty sure thats common knowledge

Anyway, of course everyone has done stuff they are ashamed of, this is one thing, big deal...which is why I dont quite get why her fans are up in arms about it being shown. And also why I'm sure no-one will go off her because of it anyway. Outside life, is outside life. When on BB you are judged(by most) on how you behave inside the house

I don't know or care if it's true or not, the fact remains that she tried to justify it by saying the woman was rude to her. I have nothing against Alex, but it does make me wonder if she is really as nice as she appears?

Aaron to win.

She's already tried to defend herself by saying that the woman was rude to her so that kinda blows your theory out of the water , somewhat.

Your loyalty to Alex is admirable , can you explain how such an apparent simpleton could hold down a fairly responsible air hostess job ???

Saying things like she wants to visit Charlie's Chocolate factory and saying to the Gorilla keeper "we don't have these up our way". !!!
Just a couple of examples , I'm sure there are more but I fast forward the bits she's involved with as she is a total irrelevance , in my view.

Come on get a grip

I think she's got a shock coming when she leaves the house as I believe she is playing a masterful game , assuming the 'idiot' role ala "Jade" .. even Mrk who tried the same ploy couldn't keep it for more than a week or so .

When they announced what Alex did,why did Alex in her own words say,I did it because she(the blind women) was mean to me?,that is confirmation by her own mouth.

At some stage Alex has revealed this information to BB, which to me shows she isn't a bad person as most of us would find it extremely difficult to disclose something we are very ashamed of...and most of us have done something we are ashamed of at some point. She has 'owned up' to BB and in doing so knew it could be used...well done to Alex.
There are many bad people out there who occassionally do something good...that doesn't make them good people...There are also good people who occassionally do something bad...that doesn't make them bad.
Alex is a good girl who has done something silly..lets not make it out to be anything bigger....
Well done for owning up Alex...everyone makes mistakes

well maybe she didn't think BB would stoop so low....I have it from a very reliable source that it is indeed a complete fabrication...silly nonsense made up because BB wanted so badly to have 'something bad' on each H.M...interesting that they only use Alex's....as they would have all provided some juicy titbit's........I know Alex didn't do it.....that's good enough for me..
