Not surprised she is playing the victim.Colleen could have walked at anytime from the CBBB house,I find her rather pathetic to still be going on about Julie .

Bullying my arse!!

I'm fed up of this word being bandied around - its soooo easy.

Never liked Colleen  -  she has this victim mentality.

 

Agree ERIN - she could have walked - she could of complained.

But not when it can wait for a newspaper headline.

 

Doesn't she realise she is ruining BB - the show she watches and the show that's just made her much richer.

 

Julie wasn't a bully, she was just a vile self-centred old trout, who thinks the world revolves around her, seeing as she is 'a 70 year old disabled pensioner' (just in case you forgot).

 

Colleen, is (or seems to like playing) a victim.

 

End of, hopefully, they'll both go home and leave our TV viewing alone.

Rhian was the one  bullied in that house

Maybe I'm wrong but I thought a definition of the word bully means the bully verbally confronts the person or is physical with the person. Unless they cut it out I never saw Julie confront her verbally or physically. She said things behind her back, as she did about others there. Why did Coleen need to be liked so much by Julie, I think that's something she needs to ask herself.

Well .....here goes. I do think she was psychlogically bullied by Julie TBH. In the first 7/10 days when everyone was fawning round Julie she cobstantly told them that Coleen was a pot stirrer, she was awful, she was a two faced b**stard, she had hit her so hard with a pie she almost knocked her teeth out. Julie had everyone fawning over her and never missed an opportunity to bad mouth coleen

 

Coleen had Cheryl and that was it and then she was evicted. I know others don't agree - that's how it goes but Julie was working hard to isolate Coleen - that to me is bullying. it culminated in the sloppy horrible kiss and pawing at her boobs - horrible.

 

A definition of psychological bullying

 

Examples of psychological bullying and social manipulation include: ostracizing or ignoring peers, not inviting them to join groups or activities, spreading lies or rumors, name calling, and teasing hurtfully. Psychological bullying can happen in the classroom or schoolyard – and it can also happen at home or work.

IMO - that supports Coleens claim.

 

That's my take on it but I know we all see things differently. Maybe a lot of the difference is down to the fact that I have always liked Coleen whilst others haven't

and let their preconceived judgements colour what was happening in the house.

I agree Soozy .... Julie tried very hard to isolate Coleen in the first week or so ....And she was succeeding until she overplayed her hand during the God's task!

Thank you Baz 

Bullied in any way shape or form my arse!

 

Jeez...it's a sad day when tripe like this is all Nolan has in her armoury.

 

She's an utter laughing stock.

Exactly.

Biggest load of tripe I've ever read..Just in the same way she has regurgitated her relationship with Shane Ritchie over the years,misery guts has found a new person to vent her misery on..I love the fact that Shane has always kept his counsel, in relation to anything this poisonous no mark has to say..One word sums up Coleen Nolan...BITTER!

Amen! Precisely, I would have had a little respect for Coleen if she had brought that to the attention of masses, instead the baloney she has said in the above article..

Rhian had a pathetic time in there with Jasmine and then those idiotic guys.

 

I still don't feel convinced that Coleen was bullied - but maybe it's because of my understanding of the word. She may have felt isolated but early on a few felt that as it took time for bonds to develop. It's not that I disliked Coleen, there's definately people who've been in BB or CBB that I've disliked far more that's for sure  The problem seems to have stemmed from when Julie nominated her in the first nom, that seemed to throw her and she didn't seem to recover from that. Mike also nommed her that week but she didn't seem to have the same problem with him. Personally I still feel Coleen has a deep seated problem with what she feels is rejection, but, just a personal opinion

I think Coleen is being disingenuous when she says she has no idea what she did to Julie.   Her sister was on BotS with a HUGE axe to grind about previous history with Julie and citing her well known reputation for being a bitch.  You're not telling me that Coleen went in there thinking they were going to be bezzie mates.

  Totally agree with you Suzy and as has been said here many times before, don't believe everything you read in The Star.  

I treat the word Bully very carefully but everything in your Quote happened me last year and I will never get over it.  People who have a warped sense of their own importance can get away with anything.  

Coleen went into the house with an axe to grind against Julie - thanks to her rather bitter sister, Linda.

In the early days the others HMs didn't agree with Coleen's take on Julie, despite the little bombs of poison she would drop into conversations. Her percieved sense of isolation and frustration stemmed from her failed attempts to turn the other HMs against Julie.

IMO, Coleen was the person who had a campaign against Julie from the moment she entered the house (and moreso after the first nominations). In addition, Coleen couldn't contain her glee when the others turned on Julie, and her sniping and bitching about Julie bordered on obsessional.

Furthermore, I think the only reason Coleen came second, was a result of an anti-Julie backlash and certainly not because viewers thought she had been bullied.

I think Coleen's suggestion that she was bullied does a great disservice to other people who genuinely have been bullied, and I'm sick to death of the woman playing the victim.

Well put Yogi, couldnt agree more. I saw the headline in a petrol station yesterday and thought what a cow for using that word.Rivalry is not bullying.

Shame on you Colleen Nolan.

 Totally agree 

Brilliantly articulated, and exactly my take on the situation..I also think it pretty pathetic of Coleen and her sister to air whatever dirty laundry they have with Julie in public, it shows a distinct lack of class..Coleen is bordering on the ridiculous now, and I struggle to believe anything that comes out of her bitter and twisted mouth... Lest we forget, playing the victim has served her well, in terms of launching her TV career..But oh wait, she's not got a job at  the moment has she?

I came to CBB with no real preconceived ideas about either Julie or Coleen , except for not particularly liking Bet Lynch in Corrie or Coleen in DOI. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion , but I can only base mine on what I saw in the House , and from that standpoint I stick by my view that it was Julie who was the nasty piece of work , not Coleen. Yes, Coleen was not without fault , and she , like Julie had before her, started to overplay her hand in the last week . But from what I observed it was Julie who initially had the problem with Coleen , as she did with all the women in the House , apart from Sam! It was Julie who had the vicious tongue and foul mouth , and I can quite well imagine how intimidating it must have been being locked in there with her, especially while she had the Bruvs on her side ! And as for that disgusting slobber and grope she did, well I would have decked the woman , disabled or not !

I didnt like Julie and her slobbering over Coleen either, nor did i like Harvey and his disgusting antics. But Coleen didnt complain about either, as far as i know . IMO she should have. Why she didnt i dont know, she certainly isnt the shrinking violet she would like us to think she is. 
She came 2nd, now she should be thankful and get over it. 

^^^^ Books Baz an urgent appointment at Specsavers.

firstly - hugs to Tayts for you went through.   Must have been horrible.   

 

As for Coleen... let's not forget what she kept on saying when it suited her 'Big Brother is a GAME show'  If  Julie's tactics were to try to isolate who she saw as the competition, then that's what it was - tactics.    I think she's a thoroughly dislikeable person - but let's not for one second confuse the actions of some has been actress and two bit TV presenter with the very real bullying that can go on in a workplace where people have no option but to continue to go into work day after day.    

I agree!

 

Agrees with Kaffy's post, too.

I'm in a very agreeable mood today.

Exactly Kaffy. There is REAL bullying going on , and its very sad. Getting a few grand for sitting on your butt for a couple of weeks cant be bad. Bullying within schools is also horrific. It actually angers me that Coleen can use the word so easily to suit her storyline getting out of the house. I find it very disrespectful to those who HAVE been bullied, and unfortunately still are. I also noted that Martin wanted to make an issue of Harvey,s behaviour and how it was very disrespectful to women. It went right over Coleen,s head and she more or less said he was a boring old man. Yes a lovely woman indeed.

I guess as with all things in life it depends on your perspective ....or in this case , the Daily Star's perspective Like I said , I had nothing against Coleen ( or any of them) before they went in the House, and in Coleen's case I still had nothing much against her when she left (adjusts glasses) But , whatever the rights and wrongs , I can still see why she would have felt intimidated by Julie ( and her minions ) at the start of the series. I on the other hand , would have wiped the floor with Julie ...and the Bruvs ...right after I had washed their mouths out with soap !!!

I think Coleen would have had a good shot at julie, but Julian got in the way. Oh well, sad, but never mind 

Thats twice Baz you need to go to Specsavers, have you been yet ?  

She had nothing to her before the house.

 

Nothing to her in the house  

 

And has just rubber-stamped she has nothing to her after the house.

Lol... The truth is we will never know Skylark I can only say it as I see it , and so can everyone else

Boring old world Baz if we all thought the same 

10th September 2012

SHOCKED Coleen Nolan claims her arch rival Julie Goodyear is continuing to make her life hell.

The pair did not get on in the house and Coleen dubbed Julie the “smiling assassin”.

 

But runner-up Coleen hoped they could call a truce after the show. 

 

She said: “Julie gave me a kiss, told me she loved me and said: ‘Don’t worry love. That house causes paranoia.’

 

“I thought this was the end of it, but the next day I was walking around the hotel and the staff were telling me: ‘That Julie is still slagging you off.’

 

“I even popped into the hairdresser in the hotel and she said to me: ‘Julie was here this morning calling you a two-faced bitch.’ I had this for three weeks in that house and now it’s carrying on. It’s got to stop.”

 

The former Loose Women presenter, 47, said she was at a loss as to why they do not get along.

 

Corrie actress Julie, 70, who played Bet Lynch, was adamant there was no bad blood. She said: “Surely if she had a problem she would have said so to me.

 

“Why didn’t she come to me? Was she frightened? Good gracious! Of a disabled pensioner? My, my!”

 

seriously she is still going on about Julie.

I can see why Julie took the foul Jasmine under her wing so to speak,both foul.Mind you I  don't like the Nolan woman either.

 Julie kept Jasmine calm. Thats one woman i wouldnt like to meet!!!

soozy et al - i'm in agreement with you, the vitrol that is being thrown at colleen, in any progs i've seen and articles i've read she always comes across as a genuine person with concern for others, no pretentiousness or grandeur, where does those vindictiveness come from?? 

only a gameshow? was connor only playing a game? and caroline?

those were Coleen's words.

I think I would have been more annoyed/upset if a guy of 33 rubbed his ass in my face, nothing not a word.
