    When Excuses Go Wrong

    Now usually I wouldn't bother with Big Brother and especially since it happens to be in another country, but this year's Celeb edition has charged up a scandal about racism.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6265127.stm

    Whilst I don't condone racism in principle, how often would you say that the supposed "victims" pull it out as a convenient card to explain why people don't like them?

    From what I've seen on the telly, Shilpa is having the mick taken out of her, but how much of it is because in the first instance she was an insufferable whiny ****? In that case, did she bring it on herself?

    Please handle this subject with care, and discuss.

    I've not watched one minute of it, so I wouldn't know. Mind you, it says in the report that several housemates were taking the mick out of her accent, and although that might not necessarily be racism, it is in 'Mind Your Language' territory.

    Shilpa is absolutely lovely, I think guys will be drooling & the ladies fuming.
    I think most men would want her & most women could feel threatened by her.

    Racism ? maybe, but my guess would be jealousy.
