Does anyone think that the remark Jermaine Jackson said about Jackie being white trash is racist?

Question

what do you mean the questions not complete? How shall i simplify it?

Answer 1

Well yes of course that is racist - though I doubt if there is any agency or person in England that would fight that corner - as you well know - Only white people are racists apparently.

At the same time, can you argue with him - I certainly could not.

To be honest, I think that the three young females (wont use the term ladies) are basically just that. I fortunately know a lot more intellectually bright, well mannered, educated young women who live in England who would not act like those three

I do not think I would like to be associated with any of these so called CELEBRITIES, other then Shilpa, Jermain, Cleo & Ian to be honest! The rest of them are simply an embarrasment.

Answer 2

Both the Goody's ARE trash, Jack is trash cos he's joined at the hip and has no separate identity and no personality. And yes they are white. Ive heard this phrase before, and yes it is an American phrase, As Jermaine is an actual American then i don't see this as being racist. He is just using a common phrase from where he comes from.. Come on guys anyway he could have said MUCH worse.. I would have done in his situation.. They are such a bunch of loooooooooosers.

Answer 3

Sweetheart it is not about Race or Colour, but it is about Behaviour and a clash of different personalities. Shilpa has a very bad attitude too and so the girls are only reacting back to her..simple answer.

Come on people wake up and smell the coffee, This is not really about Racism she is playing on it is to see how much she can bleed this country (UK) to try and get loads of money before she goes back to India. It is a very clever way and deceiving trick what has been pulled. If you look and read between the lines. I knew it was about money as soon as I read the news headlines on the BB website. By the way I am of mixed raced half Black and half White and I have NEVER played the RACE CARD and I have no intentions either.

Answer 4

Racism doesn't just relate to ethnic people (or whatever the current politically correct term is - many apologies) so yes I would say he is being racist but having seen and read (ohread so very much) how she was treating Shilpa then she probably deserved it.

Answer 5

We use the term fishers wife over here and it not said to be racist. The term Trailer trash is like the american equivilant so no it not a racist remark in my oppinion.

Answer 6

Yes indeed, but maybe it's because she's white that it doesn't count. We will never hear the end of this STUPID incident. If it was white on white it wouldn't have made the news or even raise an eyebrow. What is this world coming to.

Answer 7

He actually said if jackie was in america people would call her "white trash" he didnt directly say it himself although what difference would it make people aren't holding back with shilpa

Answer 8

Surely you know that racism against white people doesn't count.
Yes it is racist, but she is trash.

Answer 9

The Goody Family is Trash !

Jade mum would only call her Indian .

Jade cant talk English and no can her Mum ,I feel sorry for her Boyfriend , I hope the young lads in it for the money because that is one fucked up family

Answer 10

Yes. She's just trash.

Young ugs - it is wrong, because it is making her ethnicity part of the insult. It doesn't matter that it is correct, she is white, the point is using that description as the insult.
