Celeb Big Bro Thread 2 - Courtney's audition for the Bucks Fizz tribute act wasn't quite what they were looking for...

Yes, I know it is a shock to discover CBB celebrities famous for something other than being on other reality shows, but there are some in the house this year! It is a miracle!

Still no shopping lists, decent long-lasting tasks and lack of BB interference but we can't have everything can we?

PWBs - pull up a chair (from your favourite Oak furniture dealer), grab your snacks and get stuck in!

I just listened to the women's hour IW was on Lizzie. Very much played the anti trans card again. It seems if anyone disagreed with IW, rather than trying to explain her point of view, she just throws the victim/discrimination card.

LizzieSiddal · 07/01/2018 10:47

Fox yes, she definitely likes to play the victim. I do hope Jenni Murray is watched my B.B. I also wonder if the people at the BBC, who sent Jenni a warning letter are hearing about what IW is up to and are ashamed about what they did.

As others have said, the psychiatrists who said she was fit for surgery, need looking into. She’s very immature for a start, flouncing off like she does reminds me of my DDs when they were teenagers.

betgilroy · 07/01/2018 10:49

IW's boobs are not a thing to show off imo.
They don't look feminine at all.

From her reactions to basically everything She clearly doesn't have a clue how to 'be' a woman. It's as if she's playing dress up but taking it way too seriously.

LizzieSiddal · 07/01/2018 10:51

I do actually think IW was probably an immature, idiotic dick when she was a man.
No matter what operations she has or clothes she where, she’ll always be an immature, twit.

fourquenelles · 07/01/2018 11:12

What ho! Just delurking to say that I am watching BB for the first time in years due to Courtney Act as I am a dedicated Drag Race follower.
About a year ago she foolishly had unprotected sex with someone who later told her he was HIV +. She posted videos on You Tube about how she sought testing and treatment and to demystify the process in the US. (Thankfully she's clear). Her videos are clear and intelligent. She is a fierce HIV "Know your status" campaigner.
I can't help but adore her.

Ledkr · 07/01/2018 11:39

The thing is, Genuine wouldn't fancy IW even if she was not trans because she's not particularly attractive Hmm
I'm so glad this has opened my eyes to how the future is going to be for us.

BeyondWW · 07/01/2018 11:44

Yy ledkr. I doubt he'd fancy me either, but I'm not having a strop about it Grin

HellToupee · 07/01/2018 11:52

Have just watched last night’s tittle/arm fest on catch-up as I was out on the lash total dry January fail .

Really liking Malika at the moment - she hit the nail on the head in her assessment of IW and seems to be a bright cookie overall.

Dapper obviously hasn’t changed all that much as he was just vile in the diary room!

Shane L was so respectful to Courtney/Shane by asking how to address them. Best bit was Courtney’s response though - She’s not precious! take note IW

I did feel a bit sorry for AW at “skirt-gate” and do wonder if Courtney’s is the only dick she’s ever seen Blush

Can’t even talk about the IW/Ginuwine scenario. Cringe doesn’t cover it.

Loved Wayne showing off his new hip!! 😂

Do you all feel that strangely the women seem to have found more balls since the men entered the house? I find they are suddenly more inclined/happy to call a spade a spade? Weird.

I think this series has great potential!!

HellToupee · 07/01/2018 11:58

Actually, come to think about it, to me it seems that the women have had to walk on egg shells so far but the men don’t seem to have that issue. Maybe that’s what it is?

Chipstick10 · 07/01/2018 12:07

You can put lipstick on a pig, it’s still a pig

BeyondWW · 07/01/2018 12:23

I actually kind of hope dapper does (overall) come across as a normal bloke. It will demonstrate how it's not some seedy kind of man who laughs at rape, it's ingrained in some "normal men" too.

Trashboat · 07/01/2018 12:41

I actually kind of hope dapper does (overall) come across as a normal bloke.

Way too late for that. He has shown who he is before, and shown again, who he really is last night.

You would have thought that after having a daughter, he would have changed his thinking, but obviously not.

Talking about 'hanging out the back' of a woman and 'second knuckling' a woman, who is actually in the house.

I really hope they show it to the housemates. Absolutely vile.

PositivelyPERF · 07/01/2018 12:46

Beyond any chance Dapper had of redeeming himself went straight out of the window, with that revolting comment in the diary room. I was prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt, but that cemented my opinion of him. He a misogynistic piece of crap and I imagine his career will effectively be over when he leaves BB. Though my oldest boy, who unfortunately doesn't understand the Trans problem, said there are enough stupid people with the same revolting views, that will find him hilarious.

gingerbreadmam · 07/01/2018 12:56

Hope you PWBs don't mind if I hop on. Hi! I need somewhere to discuss all things IW and quite possibly dapper laughs now.

His comments about Jess last night were vile and I couldn't shake what he was saying knowing his dp is at home watching with their baby. Bork! It flashed back to Jess and I though she would be fuming if she heard people discussing her like that.

So far it's only those two that are on my not like radar. I'm particularly fond of Ann, Amanda and Jess and think I will come to love Shane and John too.

GoldenGumballs · 07/01/2018 13:00

Long time lurker occasional poster here. So excited that this thread is so busy! Love reading the comments here.
Anyone else think that Ann will explode if the boys continue to treat her like a fluffy granny. They need to give her a bit more respect and not coddle her. It’s a bit like living with Queen Elizabeth the 1st.

IhaveChillyToes · 07/01/2018 13:00

I really feel the world we are leaving to our children is one of confusion

If trans like IW insist they are a WOMAN when everyone in the house doesn't see IW as a REAL WOMAN however much it is shouted at them

Perhaps there should be 3 types like male, female and ??????????? With a name that everybody in society agrees to

The Twitter trans seem to think IW has ruined the opportunity given to them. Also, has put the trans story backwards

Thought very interesting that IW had never taken part in any LGBT activity previously - weird/strange and I expect the LGBT community aren't happy about that either

Didn't know about radio 4 but not surprised

Melika was spot on IMHO

Think Rachel is being so 2 faced and fake. She is just being slimy and squirmy like a politician - not surprisingly

Really glad BB told IW that it was Ann's bed I think it was probably in Ann's contract to have single bed. I know I would deffo put it in my contract, I would hate to share a bed especially if the person turned out to be really horrible on 2nd day then I was stuck with them

GinUWine handled it really well cos he could have complained to BB about being sexually assaulted (if that is correct term) by someone pulling them over to kiss them, if he wanted to especially just after meeting someone. Some people would be like that if a stranger pulled them over and tried to kiss them

Most of the men are absolutely lovely but the 2 prats hopefully won't get much airtime and will be out soon

Hopefully the lovely people will get the airtime SmileSmileSmileSmileSmileSmile

GoldenGumballs · 07/01/2018 13:01

Was prepared to give Daniel a chance but that diary room display finished him for me. Jonny was pathetic in love island a real follower and am afraid Daniel with bring him down too.

LizzieSiddal · 07/01/2018 13:03

Yes there seems to be a lot of lovely people in there, which is unusual.

Mind you, it’s very early days!

StilaOnTheWrongPlane · 07/01/2018 13:06

Just wanted to say hello to the lurkers (and hope you stay ) last years was so dismal the first thread lasted forever !
Sooooo much to catch up on Grin

QueenLaBeefah · 07/01/2018 13:09

I was prepared to give Dappa a second chance if he was truly remorseful and had learnt why rape isn't a subject to laugh and joke about. I even thought having a daughter would be a lightbulb moment for him. Sadly, he's still and unenlightened, misogynistic, immature nob end he always was.

Strangely, he is also the type of man that if someone spoke about his grown up daughter the same way he spoke about Jess he would square up to them. A total knuckle dragger.

betgilroy · 07/01/2018 13:15

I wish they hadn't put Johnny love island reject in there. but then I also don't think Jessica or Ashley are celebrities either , never heard of them until now.
But Johnny is just Yuk

CisCucumber · 07/01/2018 13:17

Woo hoo watched it on catch up
IW is a brat and why the hell is RaJo creeping round them

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 07/01/2018 13:21

Thought very interesting that IW had never taken part in any LGBT activity previously

From what I've been reading in these threads it sounds as if IW doesn't see herself as that - IW just sees themself as a straight woman.

TheCatsWhiskers · 07/01/2018 13:47

As previous posters said, it must be hard for IW to want something so much but never be able to quite get there 100%

I do feel sorry for IW, but as a woman I find the entitled attitude infuriating. I hope that they find peace with the reality of life as a transwoman

So far I'm loving Shane/Courtney. After not watching for a few years it looks like this series is going to be great.

IhaveChillyToes · 07/01/2018 13:49

But IW is a T from LGBT

IW can think IW is a REAL WOMAN and shout it from the rooftops but IW is the T part of LGBT otherwise IW is a man who fancies men - gay

IW is getting the benefit from the T part of LGBT that have been fighting for years

Seriously the counselling IW had before the operation was really lacking wasn't it? Or did IW just not take any notice of it? Actually probably didn't take any notice of it and thought they weren't talking about IW

It would have been interesting for there to be a female to male trans in the house and IW answer whether IW wants to sleep with him, as others have said on here

I love Courtney/Shane and their attitude to relationships and life, very intelligent person and gorgeous to look at both as Courtney and Shane

I think the other Shane and JB and also Wayne will be having very interesting discussions in there today they are all lovely
