Big Brother dishes out another official warning in tonight's Big brother
Also there's a racism row. It's like this year's #BBUK is already in Week 6.
so someone else has had a warning and there's a race row as well
Are the two connected?
i've just been reading about who got the warning and what was said. IF it's as reported...as in word for word i can't for the life of me see why a warning was given...a person saying they wouldn't date a black guy doesn't make them a racist in my book,it's a personal preference that's all.
Jemima Slade has been issued with an official warning from show bosses over a racism row.
Jemima clashed with Gina Rio in a discussion over guys.
âI go for darker looking, not black, but darker feature, Mediterranean. I wouldnât generally go for a black guy,â Jemima said. âI like darker guys, but not black guys. Wouldnât really go for Chinese. I like mixed race.â
She told Gina: âI wouldnât generally go for a black guyâĶ, Iâve gone out with Indian guys, Iâd generally go out with someone in there 30s.â
Speaking later to the other housemates, Gina claimed she had âjust experienced racism,â before going to re-ignite the chat with Jemima.
âI felt offended by what you said earlier, just the way you said I donât like black men, itâs the way you said it, I didnât like it and I felt a certain way and I felt very very offended and I canât help the way I feel,â Gina told her.
Jemima explained: âI didnât say I didnât like black men, Iâve got loads of black friends. I wouldnât go for a Chinese guy, generally thatâs my taste, you probably wouldnât go for a white guy.â
Gina pressed: âWhy would you say that, how would you know that I havenât been out with a white guy; just because Iâm black why would you assume?â
Jemima however got defensive, saying: âYouâre turning it into a racial thing, thatâs why youâve got an issue with it. Youâre paranoid; you had a fight on the first night. I think youâre the most shallow and selfish person Iâve ever met.â
âI think youâre very jealous and insecure,â Gina hit back. âI always see you staring at me, giving me very funny looks and I do not appreciate.â
Jemima continued: âI donât care how youâve interpreted it, thatâs not how it is, you are the most selfish, shallow, so not disrespect me.â
âDo not speak to me, weâve ended here!â snapped Gina.
The row then continued into the garden, before Big Brother called Jemima into the Diary Room and issued her with a formal warning.
It sounded to me like Jemima was just saying what kind of guys she likes, nothing racist there...if I were a black or Chinese guy i'd be delighted to hear her say what she did...safe.
So she's gotta lie to be acceptable?
Rediculous
So if Gina/Sallie/Jemima are up that's Jemima out then,I smell a rat.

If I had a chat with Gina and told her my ideal woman has to have a pulse would she report me for being deadist.?

Not happy about Gina playing the race card, and yeah: it does smell like an attempt to portray Gina as a "victim" and keep her in when she's inevitably up this week...
âI like darker guys, but not black guys"
^ Is that perhaps the wording that got Gina upset?
I think the doozy comment is presuming Gina wouldn't date a white guy.
What gave Jemima that idea?

that racist warning was a load of ol trollocks. .
BB should have given her a warning for being unable to express what she means properly in English and been given more Eng lang homework..
Gina should have got a warning for lack of comprehension and likewise been given more Eng Lang homework too..
oh and possible help removing that chip off her shoulder as well...
I too am more often attracted to a darker skin/tanned [not tango'd] guys of Latin or Mediterranean appearance. . I am put off by pure lily white skin especially when it's the type that goes red in the sun then peels.. I'm kinda olive skinned myself so I presume I am more often attracted to like than not.. .. I also like guys with longish hair too ... am not usually attracted to baldies.. or gingers either... I would have been given so many warnings if I'd had that 'what kind/type of guy attracts you' convo with Gina. .

Except that Jemima made the "white man" comment after Gina started making the "racist" accusations.
That comment probably had a lot to do with BB's reaction (and particularly the warning), but it had nothing to do with Gina originally becoming upset...

Just catching up from last night and think she played right into her hands Cos, the 41 yr old () was stupid in her comments and Gina pounced on the opportunity to play the race card, she was completely isolated from the group and this will ensure that they'll now all walk on egg shells
