Default Where Are They?

OK, so I noticed that no one else has mentioned it [I think?]..so i'll ask here.
Firstly, I want you to know that I can't stand it when people are unreasonably 'crying racism' when it is just for attention!...
But on the other hand,...i'd like to know if you guys think that there just wasn't any black, asian, or other none white z list celebrities available for the next three weeks??

Seems a bit funny to me that, because for weeks now leading up to the launch...i've seen rumours of at least three black people going into the house?
And to cut a long story short...I think that "None" is not what i'd call a fair representation of "Celebrities"!

Where are they?

That's a good question to ask when you've got Ron Atkinson in your signature.

Of course I'm kidding.

I think it's just because white celebrities are around 18% better on average, than non-white celebrities.

It comes down to simple maths.

Its tongue in cheek I think Lex.

With regard to celeb, this year I actually know or at least have heard of all but Courtney, Dustin, Charlotte so not to bad on the "celeb" front for me.

Oh ok Cherie...glad you are satisfied with the offering!...I was hoping forMick Jagger, Frank Bruno and Chubby Brown myself...but as Mick himself says.. 'you can't always get what you want'!

Cheers.

Bobbi Kristina Brown and Big Boi are both black and were both supposed to be entering, but they pulled out a week or so ago. They probably just didn't have a black backup, doubt there's anything dodgy behind it.

I was going to cite Abz. I wondered, from his accent, which part of the Caribbean he originated from so I Googled it. Turns out he originates from east of the Caribbean. About four thousand miles east. Enfield, to be exact. Idiot...

I hate it when that happens - we've all arranged nights out with our friends, but the token black friends unfortunately drop out, but not until it's too late to get replacement black people in. Pisses me off no end.
