What would of you think of Big Brother if the majority of housemates..?

Question

were black and asian and minority caucasian?

Do you think Big Brother should put more black and asian housemates in the future as the majority is always caucasian?

Answer 1

If Brian is an example, I wouldn't watch it ! ! !

Answer 2

Well you would here a lot more "no singing" complaints from the house. Music is more a part of certain cultures and it is not allowed in the house for copyright reasons.

I also think if you took out the Caucasions you would see other forms of perceived racism and perhaps more semitism.

But in general the game is the same no matter who is in the house.

The question is who would watch it.

Sports numbers are down in attendance and viewership these days and some say it is because the audience no longer identifies with the athletes, long haired, tattooed, predominantly black athletes, especially in basketball. That is part of the reason for all the new stadiums and arenas across the US. They are trying to get the more affluent caucasians to come back to the sports. I knwo that sounds racist, and in one sense it is, but in another sense; it is purely business.

And Survivor took a big dip in ratings this year when Yauman was betray by Dreamz and Earl. The all black final three generated the lowest ratings to date because nobody care who won. It does not matter what color your skin is. If you lie to win you lose.

But in the whole of things, the network can do what they want but someone in th house will say lets team up and get the caucasions out of here, just like someone will say lets get out the atheists, lets get out old ones, lets get out the men, and so on. You can always find a reason to discriminate.

Answer 3

I think this year a good proportion of the housemates have not been caucasian. It is not the colour of the skin which is important it is their personalities so I don't see why it should matter what colour they are. It is inevitable that there will be more caucasian anyway because BB is screened in a caucasian country. It is akin to the Australian BB having majority Australian contestants.

Answer 4

They have in the past - remember BB6 in 2005 with the likes of:

Science, Derek and Vanessa (Black British)
Makosi (Black African)
Kemal (British with Turkish Descent)
Kinga (British with Iranian Descent)

What was noticiably in the this series was the racial divide of the 'black' group (which included the white Italian guy - Roberto!) and the caucasians.

Answer 5

I imagine you're in UK ? yes it would be a good idea to have more diverse ppl in there, but you have to remember they have to interesting people, and not in there just to make it look good, remember Gos [ the chef] he never lasted ;ong and the trainee barrister from 2 years ago who vastly underestimated
what bigbrother was about and how hard it would be, i liked Science a few years ago from Leeds but he was always arguing especially with Orla and putting her down so much she walked, remember its not how many apply its what kind of ppl they are looking for that paticular year not the colour of the skin, any concerns/complaints should be levelled at Endemol or OFCOM.

Answer 6

Being black i'd love to see more black housemates - i loved BB6 when there were loads of black people. i dont mind caucasians being in the majority, but i wouldnt mind seeing a few more black people. I just think they make things more entertaining, speaking personally.

Answer 7

I assume you are black and thats why you ask the question?
i personally think that colour is not an issue, although i have to agree with one of your other answers that this is a white country and there is going to be more white people to choose from( well in theory anyway!)

Answer 8

Yeah but if its in a predomitory white country why put more black and asian housemates in?. Its like the african bb house being full of white people it wouldent make sense.

Answer 9

I think they should have all walks of life in their also. The one season I thought they did. Kaysar was muslim, it would make it more interesting. People trying to live together under one roof that has so much diversity. It might make people different in the game. Obesity people, black, purple, asian all of them you know.

Answer 10

I think most Asian and blacks have better things in there life than to be lock in a crazy house, full of mostly white people

Should they do a Survivor thing, where there are three white, black, Spanish and middle east people. That would be cool to watch.

Answer 11

It wouldn't make any difference to me whatsoever whatever colour the housemates were.
