Do you think Jade, Danielle and Jo is racist?

Question

I dont know, the way Jo was laughing at her English accsent and she was also saying that India people are skinny because they dont cook their food properly. Danielle was saying shilpa is a dog and all dose unfair thinks. What do you think about that ? I think they are racist.

Answer 1

Roll on tonight when it'll all be over, then given another week or so we can all live for another few months without all this rubbish all the time.

Answer 2

I think they are all silent racists, more so with Jo and Danielle. Personally I think Danielle and especially Jade has dragged Jo down to their level although she looked like a right minger in the show.

I don't think the oxo cube incident was racist on Jade's part as what she said she could have said to a white person and it still would not be out of context. What is undeniable is that she is a bully - how the bully is now being bullied by everyone (even though it took 4 years for it to happen).

So what if Jermaine called her white trash: she's trash that happens to be white. Nuff said.

Answer 3

You know something, I think they shouldn't have made such racist comments. Thats sad what they said about her. Its just sickening the ignorance of Jo (I thought she was nice but then when she started saying the things she did...) Jade and Danielle. Why didn't they just go up to her and say, you are 'too bossy and controlling' then maybe she would've done something about it.

Instead they make things up, and take the piss out of her. If they say this about her, it makes me wonder what they say about us. Is that what they really think? I cannot believe they would say that on live TV. They are all adults. 27, 25, 23, and 31. Great example they set us. Jack is 19, he's still impressionable and I think a little dim.

I think the Dirk - Shilpa thing was funny don't you think?

Those three are going to have a lot humble pie eating. a dozen times. Wait till they read the papers.

Answer 4

Your question should be "Do you think Jade, Danielle and Jo ARE racist?". And to answer I say yes they are, as you do, because whatever their motivation for bullying Shilpa (Jealousy if you ask me!) they bullied her assuming it was ok to make her feel inferior because of her race, ergo racism. Now whether they understand that what they did is racism is a whole other matter. Racism is a complex concept and the 3 of them are as thick as dog muck so I doubt they get it or infact ever will. Still ignorance is no defense, it gets me that because Jade has a black Father and because Jo has an Indian Brother in Law they assume that makes them immune from being racist! HELLO!!

Answer 5

I think she's not half as annoying as those three. She doesn't come across as ignorant, coarse and vulgar - the other three do. She carries herself with grace and dignity, they don't. She can put together an argument without resorting to swearing or personal insults, unlike Jade, who acted like a complete mad thing last night. If it's NOT because she's from India, why did they say things like 'She should f.uck off home' and 'is that how they eat - with their fingers' and 'that's why they're all thin - they have the s.hits all the time'? Or were they referring to Bollywood actresses in general??? By the way - I'm curious... are you trying to imply that if they're not being racist that their behaviour is ok?

Answer 6

Well I think that was an out come of mix reaction, thats is of anger & of pride to be of an developed nation. When she got angry the instinct to show her self superior shot up & that was the best reason she had said to shilpa to go back to the slums!
By telling that she meant that she lived in a better place then shilpa did. And by that she tried to show her superiority.

Answer 7

I think they are bullies, and bullying is every bit as distasteful to behold as racism. I hope we're not going to bury the serious issue of bullying under the blanket of 'racism'.
I believe they all felt threatened by Shilpa because of her beauty and success, and that their bullying had undertones of racism. They used the differences between them to cause her to feel intimidated and segregated, but I do believe ultimately it was three unintelligent graceless women with a pack mentality trying to undermine someone they neither understood or liked. There are no excuses for their behaviour

Answer 8

Its a hard one to call, on one hand the comments they made can be classed as raciest, but on the other hand, the 3 of them have no more than 2 brain cells to rub together, are they really capable of it??
Not sure about the racsim, but bullying 100%!
They will get whats coming to them, hey jade, jo, danielle, can you spell - end of career??

Answer 9

I think they are just bullies. I think her customs and the way she spoke were just something to pick at. I just dont think they like her as person and if she had been fat they would have been mean about that or if she'd had red hair or was scottish or anything. They were just three bitchy women picking on someone for fun and entertainment. It wasnt big and it certainly wasnt clever.

Answer 10

Answer 11

A lot of people are running about trying to convince the world that the girls on BB are not representative of the average person in the U.K. In my opinion they ARE. That sort of 'low level' racism is emdemic
