Jade was as horrible as horrible can be in oxogate. She explicitly asks Shilpa to take back the comments about it being all she ordered, Shilpa says "yes, that was wrong, I take that back" and Jade TOTALLY FUCKING IGNORES THAT and goes on for another hour about Shilpa being a liar. The giggling fuckwits were just as bad, particularly when one of them says to Jade "Your Mum would be proud to see that" and the sad thing is she's probably right!
Jade's "fake" thing's a cracker though - "apart from my tits everything about me is genuine, I'm no fake, I'm no liar" while the Sun rips the pish out of her for getting liposuction, lying about her weight loss and releasing a fake workout video. If Davina doesn't throw that in her face tomorrow (along with a load of other stuff) then C4 can fuck right off. She should be hung out to dry along with her two agitators.
The Carphone Warehouse thing makes those shortening odds on the show ending early quite telling, word must have gone out yesterday that it was going to happen.

^^ Shilpa says Jade isn't racist ^^
I think said management company may well decide that it's expedient to drop Jade asap and make sure Davina and Russell look good by giving her a proper slating though.

I cannot cope with her insane primary school classromm assistant interview technique any more. Can't we swap her out and get Paxman or John Humphries or Simon Amstell or Jonathan bloody Ross even. Even Terry Wogan and Zane 'tell me why your band's so great' Lowe give their interviewees a harder time than Davina.

Day 16, 19:08 UTC - by James WelshWarning: This article contains language and/or sexual references that younger readers are advised to avoid.
Jade has told Big Brother that appending "poppadom" to Shilpa's name was not intended as a racist comment.
In scenes to be transmitted tonight on Channel 4, Jade was called to the diary room and asked about a conversation with Danielle in which she called Shilpa 'Shilpa fuckawhiler' and 'Shilpa Poppadom'.
"Shilpa Poppadom," Jade reiterated when confronted. "I explained that for the other two trying to get her name out. Her name is not Shilpa Harry or Shilpa Tweed or Shilpa Mackintosh, she is Indian, so will have an Indian name. No racial anything.
"She is Indian, thinking of an Indian name and only thing I could think of was Indian food. Wasn't racial at all. It was not to offend any Indian out there."
Fucking hell what a stupid bitch.

Has CBB always only had one day to vote for eviction? Was someone meant to be evicted earlier, but that was put on hold due to the various walk-outs?
― The Ultimate Conclusion (lokar), Thursday, 18 January 2007 20:24 (nineteen years ago)
There's a lot more to this comment than meets the eye. If C4 are telling the truth and there's been no coaching or instruction about what's happening in the outside world, then all Shilpa knows for sure is that she's been called into the Diary Room to explain her accusation of Jade being racist. Without any context, it's fairly credible for her to have concluded the controversy was about her pulling the racist card in an attempt to get Jade voted out because of their arguments.
This is of course bollocks if C4 are lying bastards.

yes but why make it someone who has been nice to you since day one? unlike the other fuxors in the house? doesnt add up. maybe shes getting tired of his flirting and suggestive comments but i dont think that was it as she didnt mention that in her reasons for nomination.
i do think the (alleged) briefing BB gave shilpa has made her think. they told her it made her look 'weak' to say it was racism so perhaps she thinks that by playing best friendies with the idiots it makes her look like she really isnt suspecting anyone of racism anymore so you know, now shes not one of 'those' who 'thinks everything is racism'.

Aren't they all going at the end of the week anyway?
I just don't like Shilpa's sucking up to the arse triplets since Jade left. I don't care what the reason is. I don't think it shows a lot of dignity. I'm not saying ignore them or treat them like dirt, I'm just saying a little reservation wouldn't go amiss.

I still say Shilpa FTW. This CBB has been her story, just as last years' was all about Chantelle's story. No-one else looks as if they deserve it more than her. She's always been at the centre. Jermaine is too placid, too blank; Dirk too much of an outsider, merely counting down the days. Interesting, witty guy though. Ian: meh. And Cleo has clusterfucked big time.
I wouldn't mind reading Dirk's book. That Japenese-y food he made this morning looked delicious.

Day 22, 22:12: The housemates praise the party food provided by Big Brother. "That chocolate log is nice," Ian says, prompting Jo to tell him "a chocolate log came out of my a**e earlier on". He calls her a "dirty bitch". They wonder why Big Brother has moved the table and Danielle speculates that new people could be arriving.
Yes, with two whole days to go, they're going to put Chantelle back into the house, just to hoover up the votes and take the crown!!
(That's going into the Daily Star tomorow morning!)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Statement re Friday night eviction vote:
Last night, at the end of Celebrity Big Brother, there was an error in the on-screen information about Friday night's eviction vote in relation to the eviction phone line details for Shilpa. While the voice-over was correct and stated "To vote to evict Shilpa" the on-screen text mistakenly read "To vote to save Shilpa".
Endemol has issued this statement:
"This was a genuine mistake which was due to human error. We apologise to viewers and feel the best way to rectify it is to cancel the vote so far and re-open the voting again this evening, at the end of tonight's show. We have consulted with our independent adjudicator before making this decision.
Viewers who voted can have a full refund and any unclaimed monies will be donated to charity. Following this error the profits from Friday night's re-opened eviction voting will also go to the candidates charities."

Yeah, I was thinking that too. I wonder if some UK publisher will reissue it on the strength of this?
It's a shame Jermaine didn't get more of a chance to be funny, I really liked his "think about the shoes" mantra for Shilpa during the task.
