Reference:
Josie never "needed" John James. On the contrary, I think her association with him has prevented her from gaining the full potential of her fan base. I know that personally, I had been put off supporting her due to her friendship with him. What turned it around for me was when Sam came in and tried his very best to ruin Josie's BB experience, and in the word's of Dave, make her pop. John James showed absolutely no loyalty to Josie at all. In fact he was often seen in the background smirking along to Sam's "pranks" and verbal abuse on Josie. I don't like to see people being picked on. Sam has picked on Josie and more recently on Corin. The majority of the other housemates have found this to be the height of hilarity. I think it's pathetic
Her relationship with him impacted that house in a big way,HM's are intimidated by him and therefore her because of him....His fans supported her,as did all those who were so engrossed by the Nomance and will they won't they....Sam watched her tear into him when he wasn't there to defend himself,he got there tit for tat commenced,both being nasty to each other but Barbie Boy said nothing until it suited him to use this last week in a pee poor attempted to validate him backstabbing Sam ...He smirked at Sam much in the same way Josie has smirked and laughed at Barbie Boys attacks on several Hm's for weeks on end.
