Ofcom investigating Celebrity Big Brother.

Friday, 16 January 2009

'Celebrity Big Brother' is being investigated by broadcast watchdog Ofcom following complaints from viewers about housemate Coolio.

The US Rapper has proved a controversial character since entering the house, and has been accused of using violent behaviour and language - including the word n****r - as well as reducing housemates to tears and bragging about carrying guns.

A spokesperson for Ofcom said: "I can confirm we have had complaints about Wednesday's (14.10.09) show over issues concerning Coolio. We will be investigating."

'Celebrity Big Brother' bosses are said to be doing all they can to prevent another race row, following the backlash from the show in 2007 which saw Jade Goody, Danielle Lloyd and Jo O'Meara shamed for their bullying of Indian Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty. The show was pulled from schedules the following year as a result.

Viewers have accused producers of double standards and favouritism toward Coolio because of his star status, citing housemate Alexandra DeGale's removal from the non-celebrity house in 2008 for aggressive behaviour as an example.

Big Brother fan sophieyk2, writing on website forum thisisbigbrother.com, said: "They got rid of Alexandra for the way she spoke to people. She was intimidating and so is Coolio. BB should not be condoning his behaviour. Double standards I think."

The show's first evictee, glamour model Lucy Pinder also accused producers of editing Coolio's worst behaviour out of the TV show.

She said: "I think the public should know what he is really like. A lot is not being shown. I cannot understand why he hasn't been called in and given a proper warning."

A spokesperson for 'Celebrity Big Brother' says the housemates are monitored at all times and insists none of the contestants have directly complained about Coolio's behaviour.

Their is a world of difference of difference between Alexandra and Coolio. Anybody who takes anything he says seriously needs to get out more. Seriously.

That was an accident. They laughed and she was generally surprised.

Britain is the biggest crybaby country on the planet.

Why does government have to intervene in every single argument? God!

And racial what? What did Coolio do?

I never disliked Coolio at the beginning. In fact I thought he would be amusing and annoying, therefore great BB watching. He is however a bully, a sexist pig and calls Tina fat. He was all over Mutya and she was far from enjoying the attention. What a sleaze. That is all bullying. I am not a great fan of Tina either, but she has lost a lot of weight with a bit of help and she is still losing it. It is nasty to call someone fat and he means it nastily.
I do not think everything in the show should be scrutinized, but he should be reprimanded.

Who cares if she's lost weight? Under most circumstances, making someone's weight the butt of jokes in the house, would be off limits.

Tina happens to raid the fridge.

What has that got to do with anything? Take a look at your own pre-installed set of morals if you are comparing Coolio to a snuff movie.

Are you joking?

He had Michelle breaking down every five seconds and wouldn't let up. He has said some of the worst things in the house possible to people.

Coolio IS a bully. He makes for good tv though.

You're declaring that if anyone doesn't agree with your take on this series and what is going on, they'd be the same ones defending snuff films.

God.
