There's too much cynicism in this thread.

I've been unhappy with Jade's actions this last week or so. She has demonstrated a very nasty streak in her nature. Argumentative, divisive, belligerent and childish.

But just as I and everyone here can demonstrate such negative qualities, I have to believe that she can show redemption and perhaps even learn from this experience.

There has been no autocue, no cue cards or prompting. I honestly think we have witnessed an, albeit late, realisation from Jade about her actions. Perhaps I could go far as to say an epiphany.

To stretch the analogy of the week - no one is black or white. There are shades of these traits in all of us.

Big Brother has just held it up for us all to see.


Never a truer word.

Excellent post - I'll jump on the bandwagon at this point. Though she may have been indirectly hinted at by the powers that be regarding her comments, I'd completley agree that she took it upon herself to approach Shilpa and reconciliate. Whether it was due to the helicopter presence and so on - or not - we cannot really speculate with certainty, but from what I've seen it was a completley honest scenario - Jade simply wanted to clear the air.

Perhaps the strategic edting of the show tonight has made me feel this way, but it is only now that I feel so sorry for Jade after seeing this news plastered everywhere. In my opinion, the British media is becoming ridiculous, and it is only due to them that this situation has got completley out of hand and may have swayed public opinion of the British people worldwide.

Naturally, however, I did turn over to Sky News after the show, to find Enda Brady reporting from Elstree with a 'Jade Evicted' Breaking News strap at the bottom of the screen, with police sirens ringing in the background. I repeat - ridiculous.

BTW I can't be the only one who dislikes it when Asians call each other p**i or black people call each other n****r. I don't call fellow white people h*****y so why do they call each other that???


It's called 'reclaiming' it's suposed to be empowering. some gay guys have done the same with queer and fag...


Yes but again I have never understood this as one of my mates at work put (who himself is black) said that the word n****r isn't a word to be reclaimed by black people, it was a derogitory word used by white people to describe black people.


I always thought that n****r was a Latin word for the colour black if i remember correctly.


I though that was N***o?

Anyway either way none of those words are nice in any shape or form.

Jade was voted out with a 82% share of the vote.

The live feed of E4 seems to be over an hour old - I guess Big Brother is evicting and interviewing Jade now?
...So does that mean, when we see Davina telling Jade that she is the 3rd person to be evicted over on E4, will that give us an aproxamite time of how long the 'Live feed' actually is delayed for? ...

I stand corrected. I agree, the use of the word these days is offensive. I wasn't trying to suggest that it wasn't.

Why should anyone get boos... she hasn't been racist, she's realised she was in the wrong, she's apologised, and she's human... and she's petrified about whats waiting for her in the outside world.

Security, safe homes for a week, debriefings... she's under threat... and it's all for a TV show, and its all pathetic!

There we go, my personal opinion vented about the public OTT reaction to this... it's all magnified by the media once again, and people have fallen for it! Evil or Very Mad

Indeed, Negro means "Black" (as in the colour) in Spanish.

Well we all know Jade isn't racist, she is however a bully, no amount of Endemol spin can detract from the truth!

Her emotions came out when the producers got to her, she then realised she would be in trouble!

It's all Jades fault, her mistake going back to CBB, why risk her career to go back to CBB!

The BBC at Ten being very clever and managing to get a live vantage point of the house itself by going into the park next to the studios and using some kind of lifter to get the best view.

Sky News also reported on a simular thing earlier on just after we all saw the C4 Main show end (arond 9.32pm) that they had a helicopter filming the house, and that they could see inside the garden....

Apparently Max Clifford warned her that she was making a mistake by going on CBB.

I wonder if she'll stay with Jack after this, especially if she sees the clip of him saying that he was ashamed of her going to have a talk with Shilpa in order to patch things up.
