Amy? Grr. She is whimpery and lazy and annoyingly pretty.

I don't think she's pretty at all; she looks like those women in Hollywood in their fifties that have had loads of surgery and look all cat-like.

Charlesroi · 28/11/2013 14:35

According to last night's IACGMOOH Now! people are only being nasty to her because they're jealous. (of her being a lazy, entitled whinger, presumably) Hmm

CiderBomb · 28/11/2013 14:42

Layaloo, jealous much? She's stunningly beautiful. Her hair is gorgeous.

laylalalaloo · 28/11/2013 14:45

Because I don't think someone is pretty then you've taken it upon yourself to label me jealous, CiderBomb? Ok then, whatever.

Everyone has different views of whether they think someone is pretty or not

CiderBomb · 28/11/2013 14:48

Fair enough you don't think she's pretty. But to say that she looks like a woman in her fifties who's had too much surgery, aside from being completely untrue, is also pretty mean and spiteful.

laylalalaloo · 28/11/2013 14:49

untrue in your opinion. In my opinion she does look like that. I don't think she's pretty at all.

GideonKipper · 28/11/2013 14:49

Amy is a bit of a PITA but it's Lucy who's getting my goat at the mo.

laylalalaloo · 28/11/2013 14:50

Lucy is awful. Totally full of herself and thinks she's gorgeous when she's nothing of the sort. I like Rebecca and Leila best out of all the women

AmberSweet · 28/11/2013 14:52

I agree with you Layla about Lucy! She has been seriously nasty about Amy and I'm definitely not an Amy fan (I don't dislike the girl I'm not indifferent tbh). I always though Lucy seemed like she was probably quite a nice/fun person but tbh she just comes across as spiteful!

CiderBomb · 28/11/2013 14:54

Well sorry it is mean and called for.

And for the record I hate it when people try and use the "I'm entitled to my opinion" card to try and justify their nastiness.

laylalalaloo · 28/11/2013 14:56

And I hate it CiderBomb when people use the 'you're jealous' card if someone thinks someone isn't pretty!

Lilacroses · 28/11/2013 14:59

I think she's lovely. I don't think she comes across as vain or anything like that. I'm not a fan of beauty pageants at ALL but I think she's a really nice, down to earth young person. Maybe she is a little inconsiderate but I was probably a bit similar at 21 years old.

Lilacroses · 28/11/2013 15:00

Lucy does come across as spiteful I agree. Especially that weird thing last night when she was grilling on her about who Amy might possibly receive emails from as though this was a ridiculous concept!

smokeandglitter · 28/11/2013 15:04

I feel sorry for Amy. It isn't nice to be nasty about someone because of their appearance whether it is driven from laughing about someone being fat or jealousy from someone being conventionally pretty. She may be lazy, but if people stopped snapping/making jibes at her and simply dealt with it in an adult manner and said "Amy, thank you for doing this the other day, I'm doing this chore tonight so could you help." I'm sure she would have been willing. However, all this nastiness and making snide remarks have started to make her defensive - unsurprisingly - and I expect that although that chat would go down better than the slightly patronising suggestions being made now it is a bit late for it to be received well.

Lucy should grow up and swallow her jealousy and if she does have a problem with Amy not doing much around the camp then say so in a mature way rather than bitching about it to the camera and away from the situation. She goes on about not wanting to cause a scene, but if she truly doesn't want to then she would avoid bad feeling building up and sort it out.

smokeandglitter · 28/11/2013 15:07

Oh sorry to not answer OP Smile I think yab a bit u to be annoyed because she's pretty but if she doesn't float your boat, that's ok, we can't like everyone in life well, on TV...

5Foot5 · 28/11/2013 17:05

YABU because she is only fufilling the role that she was chosen for.

Before each series of Celeb you can make a list of "roles":

  • Retired older sportsperson
  • Older woman who is a bit of a character
  • Ex boy band member
  • Several current or ex-soap persons
  • Cuddly older man who may or may not be gay
And included in this list is always good-looking, possibly slightly airhead model, or similar.

Amy was obviously cast for this last role and, considering some of the people from previous years who have held this part, she is slightly more down to earth than I would have expected.

Yanbu. She is annoying and conceited. I was very sad to see an Olympic swimmer crying due to body issues while a useless model gloated about her good looks and beauty pageants. I was incredulous tbh, the Olympic swimmer ought to be really proud of her body, it shows what a fucked up world we live in.
