No, Rylan said Chloe wasn't the only HM who kept the 5K.

Can't stand her.

She really is a piece of work isn't she? She scoffs ice cream in front of them in a really smug way.

She stuffs her face with pizza in front of them, sneering at them as she eats.

She tells Jack's dad 'He can't come to the phone', when she KNOWS his sack held zero cash.

She is all pally with Jack when she thinks the public like him, but turns totally against him when she thinks the public don't like him.

She throws a tantrum and cries if anyone dares to nominate her - hence why nobody has dared to nominate her since.

And as for the others spending some of the prize money on stupid things like Joel with the Pizza, as Joel TRIED to point out, BB would give them opportunities to refill the prize money if it was spent on 'silly luxuries'.

But TAKING £5000 cash to be spent OUTSIDE of the house is an entirely different animal. That money will not be topped up.

So we can't compare Joel's £2,500 pizza with Chloe's Cash grab.

Ridiculous. It was obviously going to the prize fund but she took it for herself instead.

Yup. The straws being clutched to justify Chloe being a complete hypocrite...

I don't have a problem with any of them taking anything tbh. Good on Chloe for taking the 5k. However my problem is with her nonestop whingeing about others doing it...having a ****fit for the sake of 100 quid last night FGS..then doing the exact same thing herself.It matters not if its taking away from the prize fund or keeping an offer for yourself and refusing to add to it really, its the same thing and I'm not sure why its being made out to be completely different.

Poor 'Danny' (we all know she does not really mean Danny when she goes off on one )

The prize fund has already had money taken away. They are all trying to build it back up. Joel did his by accident and Jack withdrew his.

Joel and Jack were TAKING money from the fund, not for themselves

Of course it was for themselves. Regardless of what it was being spent on.

but for stupid items they wanted to eat/use in the house. It was a complete waste of money.

Irrelevant. And no one is blaming Chloe for taking 5k. What they dislike is her making points such as that being Danny's money and other housemates screwing him over. If she really believes that then she has done the same to the tune for 5 thousands pounds.

And why was she talking during the task ? She was bitching about the boys being faster then her and how she couldn't get her stealers on the cash button in time to save herself from nomination...yet when Nick did the exact same thing the next day she accused him of putting a price on friendship....and do i even need to mention the way she treated Jack for even thinking about doing the same thing.....SHE IS HANDS DOWN THE BIGGEST HYPOCRITE IN THERE....

It wasn't Chloe's money at all, it was the prize. As Chloe said it's selfish to take money from the prize fund.

[Niamh.]

agree ^ It wasn't her money, it was a test like everything else, it's money that was only given to her because of the add to/subtract from cashbombs involving the Prizefund

The choice was keep it yourself or put it back in the prtize fund.

Yep just like Joel used £2.5k for a pizza, Chloe used £5k to keep for herself, same difference, both was money that would otherwise have been given to the winner

The question was: take the money yourself OR PUT IT BACK IN THE PRIZE FUND. It was some of the hundred k she lost the in the first place for jabbering on in the task after being told they must not talk.

I think Harry may have as well. I started another thread about it.

I'm a woman, I think she's a selfish hypocrite and want her to go Friday, what's your point?

It's far more sexist to claim someone will be evicted because they are a woman than to judge people on their actions regardless of gender, race or colour.

The £5000 was originally part of the total prize for the winner of £150,000 but was removed at the beginning of the twist as punishment for people talking. She had the opportunity to add it back to the fund, or take it for herself. It would only really be "her money to give" if the housemates had successfully raised the prize back up to the original £150,000, and the £5000 was an additional extra that could raise the fund to higher than this. I totally don't blame her, most people - including me - would've done the same, but t definitely does make her look a bit silly after the fuss she's made all week about any money being taken away from what the winner deserves.

Yes good point she bleated on and on about Danny and Cristian outside trying their best and that Jack and Sam were selfish for spending 100.00 on getting their suitcases, Sam had already added 10k to the fund so, so yes she is a hypocrite.

Sam who'd just spent 6 and a half hours doing the task with Danny and Cristian while Chloe didn't spend 6 minutes doing it

Tbf to Chloe she did attempt to say it was only Jack she was pissed off at.

You know, Jack who she allowed to spend 4 hours or so standing, encouraged to miss a call from his father..etc...while knowing he was adding nothing...

[Pink Pegasus]

I think it just depends on the way you view it.

The people who were offered money I don't see it as being really their money.

They are being offered money for a chance to give them the option of rebuilding the prize fund for the eventual winner.

It's not like the prize fund is still intact and this is just an extra 5000 they are offering to certain people with the option to keep it or add to prize fund.

No matter what way it was worded by BB, Chloe was given the option to basically return 5000 to the prize fund that she contributed (amongst others) to dropping in the first place or else to pocket it for herself and she chose to pocket it.

This does lessen the overall prize fund so in a slightly more indirect way perhaps than Jack/Joel, is still 'taking away' from a figure that could very easily have been higher for the winner if she just said a simple no.
I know it's not 'taking away' from the current prize fund figure on the plasma screen but imo the money on offer to each of them is just part of the original prizefund anyways that they are meant to be trying to rebuild. I don't see it as just some extra treat or prize that is being offered, it's part of the money that they helped to lose and supposedly want to regain again for the sake of the winner.

She goes on and on about how everybody should want the winner to have as big a prize fund as is possible but doesn't apply that reasoning to her own actions. That is why she is a hypocrite.

Wonderfully put as usual

[abhorson]

As others have said. Joel, Jack, and Nick never actually took any cash home. They were doing it for the game. And all knew that the cash would go back up. They all did it for a reason. Chloe took cold hard cash.

Chloe after four days of slating others, took cash home. If any one fails to see the hypocrisy, then well...

[FacelessME]

Given the chance, I and anyone else would had taken the money. She's a hypocrite for getting mad at Jack about how selfish he was for depleting the prize fund and now she basically did the same thing. Chloe fans probably won't see the hypocrisy.

They all do! Most have admitted it, and only a few funny types won't.

That's actually not a world away from taking from the prize fund. The money being offered comprises of the money deducted from the prize fund in the first place. Anyone who chooses to take the money for themselves rather than putting it back into the prize fund ("back into" being the important part) is essentially taking from the prize fund IMO.

Of course, I don't have an issue with her choice, I'd have done the same. But then, I wouldn't have spent the past week being all high-and-mighty about it either.
