A lot of folk weren't aware of his ethnicity on social media and we're jealous of his supposed " fake tan".

Also noticed quite a few girls with an Indian/Southern Asian background have said they now fancy him after his revelation


Quote:
Pri ☺ ‏@PrincessPriyax
#BBChristian is quarter Indian?! Im gonna find him and marry him �� #BBUK

soniya ‏@sXOniya
The fact that Cristian is a 1/4 Indian just makes me weak �� #BBUK

Siran Govender ‏@Siranny_G
#BBChristian is 1/4 Indian? Explains a lot.�� #BBUK ��

So they didn't fancy him before when they assumed he was white or something else?!

Anyway he probably sees his revelation is a masterstroke, maybe he thinks he can steal Brit-Asian votes from Sam.

He's a very strong minded person and I love that about him. Doing very well on the latest challenge as well. He's very competitive.

He amazed me,I think he did that task perfectly,something he was clearly comfortable with.

Chloe on the otter hand, I was almost yelling at the daft girl to drink some milk,it took her ages to get round to that.

I felt the money given was really pathetic for the task however.
BB has never said anyone could take something off the prize fund to a figure of £5 or under £100.
Had I done that and only added £5 to the fund, I wouldn't have done another task,I'd have taken the food,goods, privileges rather than risk a paltry figure like that again.
Really though, well done to Cristian on that one,I don't think I have seen any housemate do a chilli task that easily before..

Didn't even blink???

He asked for more milk FFS.

He handled it better than the others but to be fair he's been sniffing his underwear the last few weeks which probably acclimatised him to it.

He gave out my favourite reaction to that task as he couldn't handle it yet he was bragging about being quarter Indian not long before.

I don't understand that. Does being Indian automatically make you immune to spice? Is it in the genes?

I wonder how he would be perceived if he had an 'Asian name' . Most people on social media before the reveal seem to see him as white with a fake tan or middle eastern.

An ex-neighbour back in the day was in a similar ethnic break down as him and looked white. SO when some people found out he was 1/4 Indian people treated him a bit differently.

When Zayn (Pakistani background dad) was first emerging in 1D in US and Australia quite a few girls thought he was Mexican, when they discovered his correct ethnic identity, some girls were like 'eeewwwwwwwww, but he was so hot', they don't equate being attractive with Asians. Sad.

Yesterday he was cock sure about the chilli...and although he did well it wasn't as easy as he thought but he laughed at himself as he begged for more milk.
Christian is really just a decent, polite competitive guy and has been a good team player in the house. He gets talked over a lot although he has opinions. His personae is a bit of a cover up for lack of self confidence...and this is the journey he is on. I think he has grown in confidence, he doesn't have a nasty biychy bone in his body and if he was my son I would be really proud of him.
I think he is a great guy...and deserves to win.

I don't treat him differently and I don't see why anybody would. I hated Siavash and I liked Pav, ethnicity would never change my perceptions on anyone, it's all down to personality.

Kind of agree with most of this, remember in the first task in week1 when doing the cycling and he asked BB to turn intensity up. He's good looking but is almost hampered by this as folk expect him to have swag* so he puts it on when in fact he's shy insecure and lacks confidence. Cristian is the kid of guy parents don't mind their daughters dating. He's innocuous.

He did very well, but it was harder than he thought. But at least he was not screaming like the others. Sounded like they were being skinned alive

He's a lovely lad. Quite shy and insecure, probably because he was bullied a lot growing up. But it has made him stronger.

He was trying hard not to break his gangsta hard man shell. Thankfully Jack and Chloe are able to let their emotions out
