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!

It annoys me that India has made clear she is a woman etc. Why keep going on & on about being trans?

Also found it rather insulting when she shot Courtney down over the LGBT rights.

Seriouslyjuicy · 07/01/2018 19:06

India reminds me of a 12 year old. All hormonal tantrums, low insight, poor critical thinking skills and refusal to acknowledge other people's points of view

afterschool, my 12 year old is WAY more advanced than india

DumbledoresArmy · 07/01/2018 19:08

India is a narcissist!!

BeyondWW · 07/01/2018 19:08

Some people say (if you venture into the black hole of a subject on twitter) that newly trans people are allowed to act like teenagers, as they are effectively going through puberty.

I don't think she actually grasped what Courtney meant, didn't she say something like 'I've never been to Gay Pride' or something like that?

On not realising she still looks male, I think she's probably so enamored with her new toys (moobs and surgical approximation of a vulva) that she fails to notice her absence of hips, thin male pattern hair, man paunch, high forehead etc.

I genuinely see her as having the emotional evolution of a 12 year old.

Anniethinggose · 07/01/2018 19:12

I feel quite bad for India, she will never be happy whilst so confused and insecure and I can see her frustration/lashing out is because of this.
I can't respect or like her though for being so dismissive of hard-won LGBT rights, or those of women.
I don't see her as a 'real woman' simply based on the fact that she isn't, not because of her personality traits or for doing things like oiling up her boobs. Harry Amelia was always topless when she was on BB and she's definitely a woman.

Cross post, I'd say so. Maybe u should have said an 8 year old!

Seen a couple of clips where they seem to be backtracking and massaging his ego and supporting his delusions tonight. I hope that doesn't actually happen.

the housemates will be concerned about being perceived as transphobic in the outside world so they’ll continue to say the emperors clothes are fantastic even though he’s naked

betgilroy · 07/01/2018 19:38

Andrew reminds me of that guy who was on I'm a celebrity - the one who goes out with Carl Fogarty's daughter ?
Think he was on X factor ?

Ah yes, I missed Maggie from my list.

Not sure about her to be honest. ( I greatly respect what she did regarding fighting the Rochdale grooming gang) but as a housemate I'm not so sure what I think - is she a bit of a cougar ? Nothing wrong with that but there's something a bit Liz McDonald about her ...

I hope not. Apart from anything else, the programme will be VERY boring if that continues for much longer.

LizzieSiddal · 07/01/2018 19:43

I do think the producers will be very keen to not have IW leaving first. I expect there will be a difference in the editing for the next few days.

Rachel0Greep · 07/01/2018 19:43

Every time I see Rachel mentioned here, I think it is me Grin!

What India has also yet to realise is that as a 50 yr old transwoman their problems are doubled.

  1. Trans.
  2. 50 year old women are too old for many men for a sexual attraction...just another fact of being a woman they could have worked out before surgery.
AskBasil · 07/01/2018 19:59

How come you lot are all able to watch this before 9PM tonight? Does Channel 5 have a livestream app, I can't find it on my TV?

AfterSchoolWorry · 07/01/2018 20:02

Yea, I tried to find a live stream online....But couldn't...?

IhaveChillyToes · 07/01/2018 20:02

Does anyone know why Jonathan waited until 50 to decide to become IW?

The operation has been available for several years hasn't it?

Was it a sort of like a mid life crisis thing (obviously much more dramatic) like the 50 year olds that get a motorbike, tattoos, plastic surgery/face lift etc or sports car?

toldmywrath · 07/01/2018 20:02

Is India attracted to men or women? I'm trying to work out if, when she was a man , did she like women ( so Jonathan was a heterosexual man)
What happens if she India is attracted to women still? Is that homosexual? Blimey, I'm confused I dunno about anyone else!

IhaveChillyToes · 07/01/2018 20:03

On channel 5 page you can watch clips in news section

AskBasil · 07/01/2018 20:05

I saw a clip where India was sexually harassing Ginuwine or however you spell it.

That is male sexual entitlement right there.

That's why I don't want you in the same changing room as my teenage daughter, Mate.

If India hadn't been so far along in the "journey" in transition, I reckon Ginuwine would have given India a slap. That was so out of order, there is no way a woman socialised as a woman, would have had the temerity to demand that a bloke fancy her. That is male behaviour through and through.

IhaveChillyToes · 07/01/2018 20:06

Told IW says she is a HETEROSEXUAL REAL WOMAN

So fancies men and thinks they should fancy her back

Hence why she lunged at GinUWine then flounced off when he wouldn't kiss back

Alwaysinmyheart · 07/01/2018 20:06

I don't want India to be voted out straightaway, needs more time to dig their own grave!

And will totally play the victim card if that happens.

Also, don't know if this has already been said but if India has a phobia of drag queens, doesn't that make him 'transphobic '....?
