It's not Nadia's edit I'm worried about, it's Coolio's.

yes, yes she is.*

*I have no idea as I haven' watched it.

She was rude and horrible....as per...

Don't know yet, I am watching it at the moment - will let you know

i think it's blatantly obvious we're never, ever gonna see what he did or said. On the day of his leaving he was in and out of the diary room for a number of hours.

IMO - he was asked to leave and refused to do so until he spoke with his lawyers. He will have a litigation team in the US that are tip top and probably had Endemol pooing their pants.

Sorry ...........even after Coolio left Nadia was showing a very nasty side ........saw it again tonight. The Coolio fiasco is quite a separate issue IMO .............if Nadia chooses to challenge how he/she was edited - good luck to her. I dont hold out much faith in seeing Coolio banged to rights TBH.

See if you can catch the song at the end...Spongey wants to know what it is...but not the bros one,.

Ok will do Croc

That's my argument too Leccy, I've never condoned Nadia's behaviour. 

Don't be sorry I agree

Not everyone who's saying that the Coolio stuff shouldn't have been covered up thinks that Nadia behaved well.

Disliking HM Xs behaviour doesn't automatically mean you take the part of their opposite.

I think the difference for me lies behind the reasons for her being a cowson.



Nadia was willfully arrogant and diva-like on CDWM without being driven to distraction by hurtful transphobic comments...that I can live with and she's earned any critisms she receives.  Her attitude (for the most part) on BB appears to be largely down to her reaction to Coolio.....something altogether different and should be considered when making decisions about someone's personality on what is nothing more than a popularity contest.



Unfortunately it doesnt look like we'll ever see what really happened, and that's what makes it so unfair.

Brian Belo is getting right on my last nerve

I actually applauded her for her reaction to Coolio.

it was the incessant bitching and generally nasty behaviour to the others in the house that made me glad she was evicted. Some may say it was because she was wound up by Coolio ...............IMO - she's just a short tempered, self centered, egotistical bitch.

Ditto... and she certainly didn't seemed to have improved much on CDWM

I missed CDWM, wasn't that filmed before she went on UBB?


Nadia, has always been like this, such a shame that Coolio's disgusting behaviour is covering up her nasty personality.

That explains why brian just sat there with Ulrika the other night (Plategate)...he knew Nadia would just go on and on if he butted in...

I used to like Nadia so much, I don't remember her being so volatile...

Brilliant Post

I think she was .............she was simply   portrayed as a bit of a victim though to the 'bully' Victor. Remember - we at home knew that she'd had trans gender surgery(in the house they were unaware) and there was the ahhhhhhh factor.

Unfortunately - when it came to the final between Nadia, Jason and Dan the vote became split between the two big characters .....................lots of voting for either Jason or Nadia to ensure  the 'other' didn't win. IMO they were both equally obnoxious and Dan should have won hands down.

He would have been a cracking contestant in UBB IMO.

Well, I watched it last night and imo I don't think it edited her in a bad way at all.  It showed her to be the rather aggressive, selfish, volatile, unpleasant person that she is.  She has got to realise that she cannot carry on acting like a spoiled diva and treat people the way she does.  If she can do that, then perhaps people might treat her differently instead of with kid gloves and feeling like they have to walk on eggshells.

Great post LL

I just don't get this argument at all, she seems to be angry and aggressive most of the time, she behaved like that on CDWM before she was anywhere near Coolio, she behaved like that well after Coolio left, she was bitching about and looking down her nose at other hms 'til the end. I'm not condoning Coolio's behaviour and comments in any way and she has every right to be upset and annoyed by that. I really do think however that it is as simple as she thought she was the 'nation's sweetheart' got one hell of a shock when she was evicted and is trying to deflect responsibilty for her behaviour and lay the blame elsewhere.

Agree Super.

Nadia has always been like this though - nothing new in her bad behaviour at all.

So do I.

Marco has just appealed for another steward's inquiry into this too  

I agree Super

What.. Come Dine with Me???

 

Does he think Nadia's "performance" in CDWM was computer generated and really she was a mixture of Nigella Lawson & Snow White?

they are clearly taking the p@ss now what about my mate who saw her in Ayia Napa was that an edit when she went to say hi and Nadia looked her up and down like a piece of crap

I think he must have done

ok I am in no way pushing aside Coolio's behaviour in all this and how it was not fully shown and made her kick off to the extent  she did at that time but. .and it's a big but. .I am a tad, well a lot  pee'd off that they are going on about her getting a bad edit. .... and all the threats to sue etc...

she was no different in BB5 as far as her temperament goes yet got a good edit then and went on to win the show because of that and gaining many fans..  Yet the level of her kicking off was the same then as now  no matter what it is that prompts it...    being a broken plate or a transphobic pratt...  in fact the very things she often kicked off about are the very things she does to others..  rudeness etc..


why is she complaining about editing now cos it showed her warts and all and BB5  editing hid a lot of it. .  yes we never got the full lead in to what happened to cause the Coolio shouty day which is very  bad of BB but neither did we get the whole thing that set her off on any of her other rants. .eg Ulrika actually told her it was bad manners to clear up when people were still eating and that is what sent her off  even more, stropping like a loony fishwife.. .in fact had that been shown as well it would have added to a bad edit so it was good for her that it was left out..

the thing is it isn't just all about the Coolio episode and her reaction it's about the level at which she kicks off over anything... and then expecting it not to be shown cos it wasn't all shown first time around.. She's supposed to be BB savvy so should know all about the editing.. we all do... and weighed that up when she decided to go in UBB. .maybe she thought she was such a superstar she was safe from a bad edit again. .she should know BB better than that. .their No 1  Jade star wasn't safe  from a bad edit          so why would Nadia be ,

If Marco was any type of friend he'd STFU and get his mate into a good anger management programme, proper  therapy for all her issues  and make sure she keeps out of the public eye  ..

all this melodramatic 'on suicide watch' seems to me just another of her tantrums cos she now feels she is not revered as she expected to be and got a shock. . I saw her face when she was watching her VT of her shouting at people. .she looked ashamed. .and rightly so... if it makes her go for help on her severe attitude problem then that is a good thing..

Damn I waffled again.. .

*i thought I swore to myself I wasn't going to post about this today..   slaps self around face *

Glad you did post it Olly - voice of reason again!  Excellent post

ooerr..I thought it was a tad long. .

and I wish Leccy was around to write it for me cos she'd explain better what I mean or some of  the other wordsmiths  on this forum that put things across so much better and don't forget things they should have mentioned to explain their point better.. ..

You did just grand on your own Olly

Very articulate

it's been boiling up in me all day ever since I read Marco's second thread on Ds this morning . .would have posted it on there for him to read but realised he'd probably ignore the whole thing and all I'd have got was abuse from DS peeps..

so I vented my anger at their 'it's ok to get a good edit when you are bad so you can win a show and gain fans  hypocrisy.'. on here instead

Bloody great 'waffle' though Olly...spot on imo and you certainly don't need a 'wordsmith' ....I'd say put it on DS

oh gawd no.... they'd slaughter me. .  plus am closing puters down for the night now... not up for evening discussion . .too exhausting

don't mind if tis copied but the moment has passed now anyway as I'm sure there are other threads that have taken it's place. .not checked back..  and I am fully vented now as well..

Excellent Olly

Great post Olly
