It's all been going on at the BB house over the last 24 hours as posh totty Emily (above) was despatched for using racist language. The net result is that tonights eviction has been scrapped and that 2 newcomers will enter the house - both men.
Emily received her marching orders in the Diary Room after calling Charley a nigger and there was only ever going to be one result following the recent controversy in Celeb BB. While we can't and won't complain about the decision to axe the Bristol Blonde, one has to ask questions of Channel 4's double standards. The station went to great lengths to protect Jade Goody and Jack Tweedy after the rasicm storm involving Shilpa Shetty but have opted to hang Emily out to dry. It couldn't possibly because the station has projects invested in Jade now could it? Whilst Emily, a minor celebrity of little to no value to them, has been cast aside without a second glance.
Despite her blatant ineptitude and stupidty I can't help but feel sorry for the girl. When you see the comment she made in context, it's pretty clear she isn't attacking or trying to offend Charley and I don't think anything was meant by the comment. This doesn't mean it was acceptable behaviour - it wasn't. But it does mean that due to the 'hang and flog em' mentality of the media, this 19 year old girl will be branded a racist for quite some time, when in reality, she is just brainless....
Anyway, as Emily was up for eviction, tonights lynching has been cancelled and instead we get to see a couple of newbies entering the BB asylum. Both are blokes, and if early clues are to go by, both are weird too. However they can't be any worse than perpetual poser Ziggy who must be a contender for dullest housemate. Lets hope tonights characters will present a return to form.
Bring out the freaks........
