Big Brother 8

[Beefy]

Emily got kicked out of the house last night for calling Charly the n****** word. Having watched the programme i think they were a bit hard on her, it wasn't said in a malicious way, and Charly was also in agreement it wasn't racist. Don't get me wrong there's no place for the word in oursociety, but i think she was just copying the street culture from America where the word is used unoffensively. Now she's been kicked out i hope the press don't go to town on her, she's been stupid but not racist. If it was so offensive, maybe Channel 4 shouldn't have broadcast it, then again they've got the ratings to think about haven't they.

No place in todays society for this kind of word
Sorry but in my opinion she got her punishment
ignorance is not an excuse

The N word is used in society (especialy amongst young women) even when 2 white girls speak to each other (must admit never understand why) and it is like a greeting. Between 2 friends (whether black or white) How can a black rapper get away with calling another black person the N word but when a white person calls it to a black person its racist I put it down to stupidety on behalf of Emily and to be fair to say it in BB house was a massive error but isnt it double standards I just hope a 19 year olds life is not ruined by this massive error of judgment. Charly should be evicted for the way that she as changed her tune from 'not offended' to 'cant belive she said that' all for the cameras and because she thinks she will gain support as she will be thinking she will be front page news as a 'victim'. Its time for BB to go after this series or at least create a different format for the show.

I still think that Tracy is a bloke.
As for the racism thing,I don t think the girl meant to be offensive,as Jibbers says young people speak to each other like that these days.
Now in my day...........

They put make-up on her last night - it still didn't make any difference.

I think shabs could be a bloke too!

All the men on BB are not quite right.The first one Ziggy ,I think his name is,doesn t seem to have a top lip.
The two new ones both bat for the other team.
That leaves Tracy and now possibly another.
