Webbo Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 personally i never watch the cr@p. i just wondered what the fuss was about.
Head Honcho Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 personally i never watch the cr@p. i just wondered what the fuss was about. Yes! By three chavs as well
cisono Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 personally i never watch the cr@p. i just wondered what the fuss was about. I don't watch it either. But it seems that it is working... in making people interested in finding out
stez Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 versus you decide. i watched it yesterday and she (shilpa) was cooking a chicken for 45 minutes, this was obviously wrong (20 minutes per pound, plus twenty minutes) but they then went all bitchy school girl sniggering at her all the time, belittling her and being slightly racist/ignorant
Head Honcho Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 versus you decide. You have a rather flattering pic of Jade Goody there, she still isn't in the same league!
Webbo Posted 16 January 2007 Author Posted 16 January 2007 You have a rather flattering pic of Jade Goody there, she still isn't in the same league! i wanted to remain impartial between that rough old chav minger and the lovely shilpa
Shum Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 well the chav guy called her a Paki so I think that is a bit unfair to be fair!
Nationwider Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 Isn't it about time Jade Goody was thrown into a pit and covered in lime?
Shum Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 Isn't it about time Jade Goody was thrown into a pit and covered in lime? or dog shit!
Nationwider Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 or dog shit! Either is fine by me! I'm all for laughing at stupid people on the telly, but surely there must be some better way of filling the time that she appears on air?
Milky Posted 16 January 2007 Posted 16 January 2007 she is being picked on a bit, but from what i''ve seen most of it seems to be going on behind her back. There have been a few comments like, are all indians thin becasue they don't cook there food properly and stuff like that.
Dellyjo Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Either is fine by me! I'm all for laughing at stupid people on the telly, but surely there must be some better way of filling the time that she appears on air? Unfortunately the media needs stupid people who will do anything for telly & she needs them to stay in the limelight.
Dr The Singh Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Racism, I don't think so, bullying possibly, ignorant and bitchyness 100% yes!! But in saying that Shumy did mention that the chav called her a paki, which I would find offensive and racist because in the light of which it was said!!!!
Lineker's Left Foot Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Don't watch Big Brother, but I hate this celeb.world - all up their own backsides etc! Shilpa is a Bollywood actress and an intelligent woman, with good looks too !! I'd imagine that that minger Jade Goody - who is a nobody in the Celeb World really - is just jealous !! Yes Shilpa knew that when she signed up for BB she may come into stressful situations, but nobody deserves to be racially abused whatsoever !!
davieG Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Unfortunately the media needs stupid people who will do anything for telly & she needs them to stay in the limelight. They need stupid people to watch those stupid people!
Leicfox Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Just on a side issue, do Indians find it offensive to be called Paki, even though they're not from Pakistan ?
Dr The Singh Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Just on a side issue, do Indians find it offensive to be called Paki, even though they're not from Pakistan ? Paki, translates to pure, hence pakistani's in pakistan don't find it offensive at all. Just like black people call each other niggers, people from pakistani origin call each other paki!! But, it's the way in which the word is used, the word tends to be used to describe Asians (racial group) in a derogatory manner or a curse which is very offensive!!
Milky Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Paki, translates to pure, hence pakistani's in pakistan don't find it offensive at all.

IDEA OR IKEA Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 they really shouldn't do that though, the origins of that word certainly isn't pure. It was just street slag that can be applied different ways. Its often not the word that is offensive but the context it is used in that causes racist remarks!
Milky Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 It was just street slag that can be applied different ways.

FNQ Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Effigies are being burned! Goes to show that she is the only real celebrity in there. Except for Leo.
Geo V Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Effigies are being burned! Goes to show that she is the only real celebrity in there. Except for Leo. Whether people agree or not, people are racist! Im a Greek dude born in England who classes himself Anglo/Greek who has Greek Cypriot parents who has a child with a South American Guayanese girl who is half black, quarter indian and 1/8s of something else (probably Vulcan) so my son is mixed race and I am a mixed bloke! However, you can just tell that the white girls in the BB house were ganging up on Shilpa due to her looks and accent. If the camera`s werent on it would have got really racist. Its no different on the other side either. Black girls hate white girls generally and I didnt realise how bad it was until I started dating one. Its there, its ignorant, its racism on both sides but we have to deal with it. As for me, if she looks good I dont mind where she comes from
Manwell Pablo Posted 17 January 2007 Posted 17 January 2007 Effigies are being burned! Goes to show that she is the only real celebrity in there. Except for Leo. To be fair to Shilpa she's massive in India which has a population of over a billion which probabley makes her the most famous person in there on a world wide scale.
