And ...Jo O'Meara NEVER said one single racist word! And come on now, anybody who can't see through the whole scam against Jo is a useless moron! When Shilpa was arguing with Jade, she suddenly said: "Jo, are you going to say anything?" Why would she say that, unless it was to try to draw Jo into the argument? There are many such examples of how Shilpa manuevered things to play the victim! CBB was paid by Shilpa's handlers to let her win and to make her famous in some country other than just India! And it worked well too! They didn't care whose lives were ruined in order to promote that useless Bollywood bimbo!! The whole thing was rigged! Poor Jo was an innocent pawn and victim of these creeps!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1930103.post-42755991018665153422007-03-07T13:31:00.000+00:002007-03-07T13:31:00.000+00:00anonymous, you are the biggest twat going.

She was concerned for her health after eating Shilpa's ill-prepared food (and subsequently having diarrhoea!) - to complain about that is not racist. It's obvious there was a personality clash & different cultural upbringings probably added to the incompatibility, but it wasn't racism, it was just women bitching at each other.<br /><br />However, Danielle's "I think she should f**k off home" was a horrendous comment to make - yeah she's young & stupid & probably just repeating the kind of thing she's heard in the street from the previous generation, but that still doesn't make her behaviour excusable. Living proof that beauty's only skin deep.<br /><br />Jermaine Jackson's comments about white trash were also racism but that seems to be fine if it's directed at white people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1930103.post-33782177447023972612007-02-06T16:13:00.000+00:002007-02-06T16:13:00.000+00:00What about jermaine jackson's "of course my wife's...What about jermaine jackson's "of course my wife's black" comment?
