Rusty Lee would be good, she comes across as quite strong, but funny with it. She would also be a good cook, Ive still got one of her recipe books.

Tbf wasn't she the one that was suppose to be friends with Ben and then nominated him and worked in cahoots with Mario to get him evicted?

Everybody has a dark side to themselves though and you don't know if BB would just show the negative sides to her personality just to bring her down like they did with Charley Uchea in BB8 who was a lot nicer on Live Feed and was deeply misunderstood imo.

I feel it's less about the public being racist and more to do with the production wanting to vilify black contestants full stop, but the public are more naturally against women full stop so that's why the black women get it worse.

Whereas Tiff's conduct was described as part of her nature, as you know black women are angry. ALL THE TIME.

Best post of the thread. The contrarians can now continue to tie their knots and themselves in denial of your logic.

These people that think racism is getting dressed up in sheets and shouting the N word must live this unconsciously as a defence mechanism.

No other winner has been as horrendous as Helen. Infact usually its the quiet 'nice' ones that win in the end

This is on normal BB. Celeb BB comes down to how many fans you have pre-show usually it seems

Helen would have been out the door without a final pass and a good final week edit gave her the edge, that's how fickle the voters are

Plus the woman who gave Helen the final pass was, drumroll please, black. Smh. Black women done so much for bb, yet underappreciated.

Pauline is like the worst Black woman in bb history

If I were going on BB I would just be a much more cerebral "Nasty Nick" type villain or BB12 Aaron anti-hero rather than be likeable. The public would never vote for me if I were nice, funny due to 'suffering from 'black female-itis', no chance of winning the prize etc so might as well cause some dramatic scenes.

The hilarious thing is if the producers filled the house with 15 of the funniest, most charismatic, affable, wittiest, dramatic, endearing, sneakiest, entertaining cleverest black women and just 1 man such as ueber dullards: BB4 Gos, Scott, BB7 George , Michael BB 8 Jonathan Seany, David. BB9 Stuart, Mohammed Mohammad, Michael etc a black woman would still not win. Actually they should do this and I'd be right. In fact when the dull guy wins ala Cameron folk will say 'cause he's a good guy' etc

Pray do tell? Up till now you've liked which one as the winner?

[Briancbbfan]

Sinitta LOL

To be honest Sinitta and Jamelia are both definites in the future and they'll both be perceived very poorly...

I think they should get a black Real Housewife. Nene Leakes probably wouldn't do it but for a big fee?

OK, i know it may not be a popular view, but I agree with the OP.

And FYI, I never thought Tiffany should win because she was black, I thought she should win because IMO she was one of the best HMs ever. If she couldn't win, I agree that I don't think any black woman would... well, certainly not an American black woman!

you get people like Rachel and Rachael in BB11 where the latter was booted first and booed to high heavens because she dared to not bow down to the bellend that is John James... who for the first 8 weeks of the series, was loved based on just his looks despite him being a nasty HM.

And then the other Rachel who was a very kind woman who was booed on exit.

But that's not to say it's just black women treated badly, the likes of Stephanie in BB9 was white and was unfairly booted out and had a mixed reaction despite her being a nice girl.

Do we forget that Mel was the first person to get a less than positive reaction in BB1... she was black.

Then the first if the horrific boos in BB3 went to Adele, which is fair because she was nasty.

Vanessa BB6 was a "meh" HM, but she got a dreadful reception.

The only thing we can say is that only Alison, Gina and Tiffany have been cheered on exit and were black. I understand there have been less black HMs than white ones, but how 3 out of at least what, 50? have been cheered...

Maybe we will have a black woman win in the future, but there will be a one in a billion chance that an American black woman would when you look at the fact there has only been 1 black winner... who was a guy, and 1 American winner (Gary).

I don't really mind to be honest. I just think it's great for her that her that she will be remembered the most in the future.

In 10 years time I really doubt we will be here thinking about Scotty, Darren, Daniella, Kristina and Christopher.
