Does anyone else find the following a bit strange

A faction of the fandom who thrive off nastiness and negativity, who champion the very worst in society.

These people voted bear, Helen Wood and Charlotte Crosby their winner

But heres the weird part

They target the genuinely nice and positive housemates and call them words like , 'manipulative' or 'fake' or 'sh*t stirrer'

Its quite odd. Its majorly hypocritical

Championing the truly vindictive and simultaneously dragging the truly lovely housemates

They did it with Rachel Rice in BB9, potentially the nicest most genuine person to have ever gone in that house. They dragged her for weeks about being fake or fame hungry or manipulative and all the while they championed the likes of Rex, Dale, Bex etc

And what happened when she won, she was true to her word and went back to her old life. Meanwhile Bex and Dale and Luke and chums grasped for any chance at fame they could.

I guess what I'm saying is that a lot of the fans are bit backward. Majorly Hypocritical and quite vindictive in their attempts to smear someones name.

Its REALLY sad

I hope Shane/Courtney or Amanda wins

Two truly lovely people

Not an excuse

Terrible and vindictive conduct from a lot of people

You can't say someone who isn't nasty and manipulative is nasty and manipulative if you're supporting someone who is nasty and manipulative.

People see people in different ways.

An example. Some people love Trump. Others, literally hate him.

Some people are manipulative. Some see that. Some don't.

All in all it's opinion. That's why the human race are not robots.

[Lilac hills]

You can’t call people vindictive for not liking someone you like

Very few people on this website like bear and Helen anyway like ?

[Nicky91]

well i would never champion people like Helen Wood, she's for me the worst BB winner to date

[Withano]

Not to be that guy, but I think it happens the other way round too. Some Shane fans will completely disregard everythig negative he does, and refuse to acknowledge anything positive his competitors do. I think some people just support their favourites with complete loyalty and rose-tinted glasses (they're not worth having a convo with, take a mental note on who this applies to).

But he has literally not done anything negative

[Lilac hills]

And for what it’s worth, Shane j is just as fame hungry as everyone you’ve mentioned, he’s applied to multiple low end reality shows

And I’ve seen him try and manipulate and twist things and generally put himself on a moral pedal stool and look down on everyone. If you see that differently then ok, no need to make a thread whining about people having differing opinions

Challenge these opinions instead of doing the same thing Shane does, looking down on everyone in the most smug way possible assuming ur right

Idk, he can get quite bitchy. Writing Jess' initials on a coat when the lads were talking about how fake a person was in code. But Shane isnt the best example.

Point is, you will get fans of lovely people, and you will get fans of the awful people who will all defend and refuse to acknowledge their favourites' negative experiences in the house. It isnt exclusive to the fans of the obnoxious housemates.

Agreed

Shane J was my favourite when they went in. But I don't think Andrew has done him any favours really. He may still redeem himself now Andrew is gone though.
I also like Amanda and Shane L. However I won't have it that Ann is a nasty manipulative person if that is who you are referring to. It just isn't true.

I also don't like you calling BB fans nasty hypocrites. You should check yourself, it's not about the fans.

[y.winter]

I can't really understand the love for Bear and Helen, but well, to each his own - it depends on how people see BB and what they're looking for.
It started as "the best man win" and now the entertainment value becomes high priority and all means are good.

well some are hypocrites though

[jaxie]

I don't like Helen Wood. Bear was a strange one, hard to really like but I think that he deserved to win his series. He played all the other housemates.

[Robodog]

Aisleyne was nastier than Helen

Lewis was nastier than Bear

It's all down to how they get portrayed

People get whipped up into a pantomime hate frenzy by the media, too often they follow the herd rather than stand back and work it out for themselves

[poppsywoppsy]

I do not think Shane J is lovely.

Especially after his contrived entrance

Especially after trying to manipulate others say remarks to get them evicted

I think he is one unfulfilled lonely little man.

Its quite odd. Its majorly hypocritical

Championing the truly vindictive and simultaneously dragging the truly lovely housemates

They did it with Rachel Rice in BB9, potentially the nicest most genuine person to have ever gone in that house. They dragged her for weeks about being fake or fame hungry or manipulative and all the while they championed the likes of Rex, Dale, Bex etc

And what happened when she won, she was true to her word and went back to her old life. Meanwhile Bex and Dale and Luke and chums grasped for any chance at fame they could.

I guess what I'm saying is that a lot of the fans are bit backward. Majorly Hypocritical and quite vindictive in their attempts to smear someones name.

Its REALLY sad

I hope Shane/Courtney or Amanda wins

Yes, I'm hoping Shane wins. He's nicest person you'll ever meet. I also love Amanda.

Why are you not supporting Jess...lovely innocent girl, fun loving...doesn't swear...respects her elders...and butter really would not melt


I guess people like a bit of character...something about them...a bit of realism.
I detested Helen/Charlotte/Bear...but as sweet as the likes of Rachel/Jess are they are not entertaining AT ALL. They are pretty dull, Rachel particularly...Jess is sweet but there is too much overacting and shes like the class goody goody who brings an apple for the teacher. Nothing wrong with that but maybe we all like people who we would befriend on the outside..people we would have attached ourselves to if we were in there.
Each to there own I guess..
