To think Jasmine on CBB is a mentalist?

[Teamumizumi]

and she should eat something.

i started watching yesterday, so who is telling the truth the blonde or brunette?

I don't watch CBB, but what, exactly, is 'a mentalist'?

What's a mentalist?

Someone who's mental!

I don't watch big brother any more but now might be a good time to link to our Talk Guidelines

thanks

And you can fuck off kindly

Not Olympia sorry

That was for op.

I got excited then thinking that CBB had an actual mentalist on there, I would have watched it for that!

Olympia are you really mumsnet HQ or are you masquerading?

Do you mean you believe she's suffering from a mental illness? And this is entertainment?!

Does that mean Derren Brown is a mentalist?

Yes cheesie That's the proper definition

The op was trying to insinuate that this person has mental health problems but was using it as an insult which is, in fact, horrible. but she used the wrong word completely.

I'm a mentalist and i take great exception to what OP has said.

so Jasmine is lying then?

Tea: Derren Brown he's a brilliant example of a real modern day mentalist :) Some people say that John Edward is one too, but I do think if anybody could genuinely talk to the dead, it'd be him.

what is Jasmine famous for and why do they keep going on about her son?

I am not offended by mentalist, I have severe anxiety and OCD and my close friend has Bi-Polar disorder, when we phone each other we always ask 'is the mentalist of the residence home?'

Anyway, to the op, actually I think she makes for uncomfortable viewing and if those in control had any scruples they would take her out, she is obviously very fragile and should not be paraded as entertainment. Sadly there are no scruples involved and I expect she will continue to fall apart over the next few days.

Do the contestants/celebs not have to be screened and deemed fit by a psychologist before going in though?

I can't decide if she is just an actress or has real problems.

I also can't decide if her or the blonde is lying as I missed some of it. Anyone know?

Gobbler it's fine as a personal joke but would you like some random using it about you in a derogatory way?
