As some of you know oxsarahxo sadly lost her baby girl Jessica Charlotte Reay hours after giving birth. We are arranging a star to be named after Jessica and a lantern for her resting place from all of us. We also thought it would be nice to make a contribution to Sarah & Matt so they can use it towards flower arrangements, head stone or resting place arrangements. If you would like to contibute please PM me for details. Wobbles (oxsarahxo cannot see this message - Please do not discuss this on the forum) | Welcome to BabyandBump's General Chatter Forum - This forum is for anything you might want to talk about but can't find a forum for! What did you get up to today? Got much planned on the weekend? Get chatting! This thread is called 'emily is kicked out of big brother' and is in our Lounge Area section. |

I agree she was totally out of line to say it, but to kick her out?? She was joking and meant no offense, couldnt they have just warned her? I mean, it takes some getting used to not saying words like that if she's used to saying it to her friends (which by the looks of the transcript she is). I think BB are just trying to save face, don't want another Jade, lol.
And what about all the ppl who voted? Waste of their money. Why aren't BB getting investigating for that like all these tv phone in competitions where that supposedly were letting ppl call in after a winner was already picked. Same thing really isnt it |

I'm Currently Feeling: | BB have said that people who have already voted can get a refund
She needed to be kicked out as that word is just too offensive to too many people
Anyway i think it was all a set up TBH and she was a plant to do that so that CH4/BB were seen to do something if a situation came up like that, after the celeb one |

Poeple haven't been murdered, oppressed, treated as second class citizens etc through a swear word. Of course they had to kick her out, no matter what her reason for using it was it was a racist term and she had to go. And if she thought it was an ok thing to say, let alone to another person who she had known for 5 days as a "joke" then she is in need of education. | | | | Status: Online

| Its not like saying a swear word at all, saying fuck is not a discrimanatory word where as you go around even in jest and calling someone a nigger, paki, faggot, etc is to discriminate against their culture, creed and heratage. I think its only right they kicked her out, they cant risk another race row like last time, and had to show zero tollerance.
At the end of the day Emily showed complete ignorance for using a word like that weather she ment anything by it or not. Its like if someone cracked a joke that was rasist or biggoted just because it was only ment as a joke doesnt make it any less offensive. | | | | Status: Offline
