Apparently she called Charley the N word in a 'joking manner' whilst they were dancing and was chucked out at 3 in the morning.

Stupid, silly naive girl

it all seems a bit hypocritical to me. Big Brother is a show that thrives on conflict. It deliberately puts people into situations where they shout and ball at one another all in the name of entertainment.
Like that 'task' last night, when the bloke had to put all the girls in order of attractiveness. What was that if not a transparent attempt to get everyone arguing?
To do all this, to put people in this situation, and then to say that a single word is enough to get them booted out is ludicrous.
What makes "nigger" worse than "fuck" or "cunt" or all the other things that have been said.

Did charley take offense at it though. I used to work in a youth centre where several of the black (sorry if thats not pc) boys used to call each other nigger as a friendly term. For the younger generation it doesn't seem to have the same meaning as it used to.

LucyJones · 07/06/2007 11:14

nope, don't think so
she said it when they were dancing I think.
Not in an argument.

Tutu - reminds of a W Indian bloke on holiday with a t-shirt on it saying "Big Fat Nigger"...yes - I had to look twice and check I had read it right...

Backtobasics · 07/06/2007 11:15

I don't suppose she used the N word in a nasty, attack kind of way but more of a jokey, friendly way. When Jade done it, she was being nasty and horrible.

She is conservative supporter and described as upper middle class. She professes to have high standards. very high indeed. Hope her parents are proud.

plummymummy · 07/06/2007 11:23

Agree connie

bananabump · 07/06/2007 11:24

Can't blame them for coming down like a tonne of bricks for it though, after Jade's fiasco. It makes me laugh because Emily considered herself so much more intelligent than everyone else in there.

Sounds like a pretty unintelligent thing to say when you're on live TV to me!

Glad she's gone, means Shabnam the crazy can stay!

Backtobasics · 07/06/2007 11:24

I guess they are making an example of Emily then.

bananabump · 07/06/2007 11:24

Yep, and quite right too.

Backtobasics · 07/06/2007 11:25

No i don't like Shabnam, there is something very wrong with the way she looks.

southeastastra · 07/06/2007 11:28

silly moo

bananabump · 07/06/2007 11:30

really, back2basics? I think she's easily the prettiest girl in there, because she's so unusual looking.

Just wish she'd shut up now and then!

Backtobasics · 07/06/2007 11:32

I don't think there is anyone in there really who i don't find annoying.

plummymummy · 07/06/2007 11:32

Yet you still watch it

Flame · 07/06/2007 11:32

Which one was she?

bosscat · 07/06/2007 11:32

totally agree, not the word for a posh white girl to be using to a black contestant, whatever the context.

glad she's gone, she was very annoying.

BeatrootandBenedick · 07/06/2007 11:33

the attention seeking fame addict

oh no that won't help they are all that

Flame · 07/06/2007 11:34

Oh just looked it up (only saw the going in night as I was at a friend's who was watching).

She was the stupid cow who said about this great "new" music that is starting.... Indie

I ended up yelling at the tv about the stupidity of thinking indie is new

softmusk · 07/06/2007 11:35
