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

i think we bloody know that thedevil,we don't need it shoved in our faces!!

NKF · 07/06/2007 20:41

Isn't this just C4 and Endemol showing how responsbibly they are after that pasting from Ofcom?

electra · 07/06/2007 20:41

TheDevil - but I find it offensive that you are trying to justify insidious racism by posting something worse. Any expression of racism is damaging and abhorrent.

woopsadaisy · 07/06/2007 20:43

betybobo

in her video thing when she walked in she said she was into

'this new music thing called indie'

Very sheltered!!

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 07/06/2007 20:43

Bettybobo "that is the worst thing ive seen someone do on mn"
get a grip!

plummymummy · 07/06/2007 20:45

Why not look for kkk footage too then? No point in holding back now is there? Do you think people will suddenly decide it was ok for her to use that word cos at least she didn't stab someone

TaylorsMummy · 07/06/2007 20:45

i agree with her i'm shocked you can even try and justify it thedevil

plummymummy · 07/06/2007 20:45

Totally agree electra.

Chelseamum · 07/06/2007 20:46

not watching

this year!!!

Don't care who Emily is and what she says or does.....

i am boycotting C4.... crap tabloid tv!!!

woopsadaisy · 07/06/2007 20:46

oh dear

just out of nosyness, what happens when someone gets reported and how do you do it??

plummymummy · 07/06/2007 20:46

It is probably the worst thing I have seen someone post on mumsnet too

Mhamai · 07/06/2007 20:47

Ok ladies, can we try and calm down, I doubt thedevil posted that link with the intent of upsetting you as it did, in fact I'd go as far as to say, it could be seen as a parralel [sp?] to what emily did. Ie, intetion not bad but result upsetting. Lets try and be mature. That way things can be reasoned and possibly resolved without resorting to a free for all.

its alright devil wears primark havent lost my grip on reality, just dont want to see stuff like that on mn
the title was bad enough i didnt watch it so am over it now.

TaylorsMummy · 07/06/2007 20:49

'perfectly inoffensive term' sorry

whoopsadaisy,to report a post you click on the red exclamation mark at the side of the post and then message MN. They will then remove it.

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 07/06/2007 20:49

You are missing my point entirely.

This is just an example of how prevelant racism is, and the video in queation has many linked to it that react to it. If you saw first hand the things that people go through you wouldn't get so upset over a slight racial slur.

anyway if you noticed my next post after was completely calm. i had already forgotten about it

TaylorsMummy · 07/06/2007 20:51

i have seen it bloody first hand and i still get upset by it.i have had friends killed and know people who have had brothers stabbed or shot.my dd's dad is black.it bothers me the way you talking out your arse when you so clearly know nothing.why don't you just step back and think about how offensive and ignorant you are being??

plummymummy · 07/06/2007 20:52

I sure as hell hope I am right in assuming that the primark devil does not have mixed race children.

lulumama · 07/06/2007 20:53

not pathetic and not sick, IMO

not watched link, as seen enough real life prejudice.....but a reality check or giving a sense of perspective....that's not sick...

Booboobedoo · 07/06/2007 20:54

Taylorsmummy: whether you agree with her or not, I think your personal attacks on TheDevilWearsPrimark (who I am aware can stand up for herself perfectly well) are pretty uncalled for and against the MN ethos.

I've reported your post.

Mhamai · 07/06/2007 20:54

I think I did say somewhere back in the thread that it was early days yet as regards a ruck.
