When Jade was having an argument with Shilpa because she found her manorisms irritating and infuriating, Jermaine went into the garden and spoke to another house mate. He called Jade 'white-trash'.
Is this not racist?

I don't think it's racist. Jade is white trash!!!
People seem to be banding the term 'racist' about quite a lot recently without really seeming to think about or know what it means. Racism means discrimination or prejudice based on race. Jermaine wasn't making assumptions based on Jade's race, he was making a statement based on her utterly appalling and disgusting behaviour.

it is racist and it would have been noticed more if Jade had called Jermaine black trash or Shilpa Indian trash. Plus Shilpa did impressions of Jades accent when she said whale its all over the top rubbbish

London Lady and The Great Escape i agree with you guys totally. The British in this country have no rights any more all the bloody foreigner's do. Jade didn't like Shilpa (and personally she would get on my nerves too thinking she is above everyone else) and that was what the arguing was about NOT RACE. Jermaine never got pulled in when he was racist to Jade's mother. If Jade's mother was to turn around and call him black trash you would never hear the end of it. It seems in this country that anything you say to upset non-Britsih people is called racism. Soon this country won't be British anymore, bring on the BNP i say, they would sort alot of this mess out.

Jermaine said -
She's a star so she has a following and a fan base her mother doesn't, she does not care and I dont want to, go like this, it was reffered to her, they bought up the word white trash and I dont want to bring that up, and I wouldn't call her that because shes a human being
How is that racist ?

YES I AM SO GLAD SOMEONE ELSE NOTICED. i thought the world was going mad!! It has not even been mentioned. It is so unfair. Stupid english people dont even bother to stick up for themselves yet when it comes to a foreigner they start going mad. I think its all a joke and i dont watch it anymore. It makes me so mad that at how some people can get away with it and some cant. It wasnt as if Jade called her black trash. I think what Jermaine said was by far the worst racist comment i have heard on tv since i heard white trash in corrie last year by an indian.
Its about time people stoped being so "scared" of what people would think and start being fair. After all who the hell is Jermaine, a washed up singer and brother to a pedophile. Get the wan!ker out. It just goes to show that white people are now the minortiy of this country and its too politically correct cause all mp's need votes so they back anyone who aint white. ITs a FAT JOKE. i for one am not watching it any longer.

The whole thing is ridiculous!!!
What about all the bullying accusations - if you thought that about Jade vs Shilpa, then what about the rest of the house vs Dirk?

absolutley!
racist doesnt just mean being horrible to black people, it involves white people aswell!
of course Jade deserves to be called that but I think that people should be taking notice of how black people treat white people aswell, it happens all the time at my school but no-one takes any notice of it. I think we shouldn't be calling each other stuff like this because we are all equal.

Its about as racist as calling a person from india an indian. Both statements were true and not racist in the slightest
