"few offensive words"? "didn't know what she was doing"? "no position to judge"?
You literally live in a bubble, aren't you?
The girl deserves to be thrown out over and over again to understands the stupidity that comes out of her mouth and runs through her "allegedly" brain.
These statements are just terrible, you can't imagine how shocked and sad I am reading these ignorant suggestions.
I'm feeling really ashamed.

I'm torn about her ejection, on one side she would have been an amazing housemate, so it could be seen as a big loss and I don't really agree with people being ejected because of things that happened outside of the house, but on the other side, I think it was the right thing to do because C5 can't be seen to be condoning what she said and her views - which I'll acknowledge apparently came at a time where she wasn't her best, mentally - but since she's been better, she hasn't taken back or recanted her words so it's easy to assume she still feels that way, she would have been amazing car crash TV, but I see why they did it and I accept that.

This is the way i see it but been accused of making her out to be satan because i refused to condone her behaviour

Yeah I'm torn too.

I don't know really, I can see both sides of the argument. But for me one of the faults lies with the producers for not doing their research (it's literally a page on her Wiki) and then not casting her as a result of it. Instead, they've showed yet again how amateur they are at producing the show.

Oh yeah definitely, the casting people completely missed the ball on this one, they obviously would have had to do some research on Tila because let's face it, she's hardly a big name to people who aren't interested in that type of TV, so they would have seen all about her history, but I don't think they expected the backlash they received over her, which in itself, is stupid

Entertainment wise, it was a good casting choice, but morally? not so much.

[Liam-]

Oh, just read the statement, she now has taken back her words, but it's a tad bit late now isn't it

[Josy]

The girl claimed she was 'Adolf Hitler Reborn' I don't give two ****s whether she was off her head or out her nut or whatever at the time it's not an excuse for the offensive tripe she was posting all over the internet, she is or was anti-semitic and blaming that on a mental illness is bull. Now if she's been asked about her beliefs and still stood by them then she deserved the boot of course she's going to deny that now she's been removed though hence the apology that she or her management posted, even her most recent posts on social media are questionable imho bringing up 9/11 and joking about her child looking like terrorists, it said in the updates yesterday that housemates where questioning her about her beliefs and the person posting couldn't look away so we may see it all play out tonight.

The producers are in the main responsible for checking out housemates background etc and they have failed here miserably.

Shes had a lot of controversy surrounding her and some automatically seem to think that it makes for a fantastic housemate, but where does it stop?

[Liam-]

Yeah tonight it might come out that she stood by her comments when Scoop asked her about them, we don't know... I hope not

If that happens then yes I will absolutely agree with her ejection, no question.

[Tom4784]

As I said in the other topic, it was fairly obvious that she was in a bad place at the time and judging from the videos of self harm and such that came out it's obvious that she wasn't in her right mind. What she said was dumb but she's apologised for it now and she removed it shortly after posting it which showed that she was remorseful for what she said. To use it as a stick to beat her with is pointless and malevolent.

BB pulled a dick move (and potentially dangerous to her mental state) by putting her in when they knew they would eject her. That being said, if she stuck to her beliefs when she was in the house then boot the bitch.

They did not know they would eject her

Bull****.

They knew putting her in would cause controversy and they were banking on it for promotion. They stuck her in knowing full well about her past and her mental issues and they used her for the press attention before booting her out again.

Tila should never have gone in, the production staff the decided to cast her for some controversy should be sacked for their actions.

It has been said a conversation about it was brought up in the house why is everyone side stepping that and blaming the producers? They didnt force her views on her

She shouldn't have been a HM in the first place, the producers knew what they were doing when they included her as a HM. You think they don't research the HMs before letting them into the house? They knew her past and they were banking on a controversy to boost ratings. It's just a more extreme version of what the X Factor does every year, cooking up it's own controversy to fuel ratings.

I am certain they knew about her past, how wouldn't they know. However, we don't know the circumstances around her acceptance. Perhaps her management assured the producers it was a temporary blip, but events in the house proved otherwise. Who knows. My own opinion is that sponsors threatened to pull the plug on cash, so the bosses then took action. Endemol are responsible for the casting, not the channel bosses, and its unlikely that Viacom looked at every contestant in detail before the show started. There is controversy on the one hand and there is outrage and loss of income on the other. Its no contest when it comes to cash.

That's naive.

They put Tila in for controversy and to stir up interest in CBB. The producers are not dumb, they would have known exactly how people would react to her past and they were banking on it.

very well put

[Headie]

This really could've changed her life for the better, it's so sad that these pathetic producers have ruined her second chance.

[JoshBB]

They shouldn't have casted her if they were going to just evict her early on, so unfair.

It's either put her in and let her be, or don't cast in the first place.

[Stevep]

Out of interest, Jenna pulled Tila aside the other day and spoke of a old feud they once had where Tila said something about Jenna, anyone know what was said back then?

[Ashley.]

I don't want Tila back in the house just for the entertainment. To be honest, I don't think she was that entertaining, she was just a little ball of fun and her scenes made me smile last night. She looked like she was on the right path especially with all that she's been through like depression and stuff.

I'd hate it if someone brought up something I said two years ago and used it against me. Two years is a long time for people to change and she was just trying to move on.

The Political correctness brigade have killed free speech in this country. Killed free expression.

It doesn't matter how bad a personal opinion may be in a genuine free speech democracy people should be allowed to express without being victimised from those who dedicate themselves to being offended in order to shut down other peoples expressions.

SUCH PEOPLE ARE TRAITORS TO FREEDOM.

We also have a terrible habit of adding the word (phobia) to people with different views and beliefs. This too is an attack on freedom of expression.

Shutting down people who have different perspectives. Like said it does not matter how awful a belief or attitude may be in a free society all citizens should be allowed to express without being bullied by the political correctness traitors of freedom

It's the way Channel 5 said "Tila expressed opinions that are deemed unacceptable"

I know what she said was bad, but since when did "unacceptable opinions" exist? It made me so angry.

Some opinions are unacceptable though
