Jade Speaks Out

The Londoner reveals her fears...
Jade has admitted that she's far more scared of being evicted tonight than she ever was in her previous Big Brother incarnation.


A week of tension and allegations comes to a head in just a few hours and Jade is fearing possible rejection - and a backlash.

"I'm nervous about being booted out," she told Big Brother in the Diary Room. "It was different four years ago because I had nothing to lose. Now I'm a known person and there are people that like me. I've got a fan base and I'm scared of being rejected."

What worries the Bermondsey girl most is being perceived as a racist, an issue on which she tried to set the record straight.

"I said something regarding Shilpa's surname that I think may have caused offence to people outside," she said. "It wasn't meant in a racist way at all and it worries me that people may think of me as a racial person that makes racial comments. I never would, I've not been brought up like that."

Jade says the Bollywood star is on her side, but she's not sure if everyone will be.

She continued: "Shilpa says she knows I'm not racist, but the press have a lot of power and if they want to print I'm racial.. that could influence a lot of people and I could be evicted for the wrong reasons."

"Fair enough if people vote me out because they don't like me, but if it's because they think I'm a racist b**** I'll be worried about walking out - because that's not me."

thats because she has cottoned on her career is pretty much over. She deserved to go and she shouldnt get any more press time. Im sick of reading about her to be personally honest.

[soapyclean]

id show them the back door, who cares if they have made up. They shouldnt be inthere with all the commotion they have caused. Jade and her merry woman in particular.

I know to be honest after what we got shown in the diary room last night I think Jade clocked on that people,( big brother and the outside world) have been thinking that she is racist and tried to do soemthing about it

I still say all of this was helped by C4 themselves, as Jade would've been given the boot or at least reprimanded after the first couple of comments.
As for the other members, why didn't they stand up to Jade?????? It's not as though they never had voices to say "CAN IT!" but no one did. Says alot about those not goading Jade by sitting with her and witchin about someone else.

[babyblue]

nobody wanted to say anything, it took jermaine forever and huge bust up to finally intervene but from what I recall all he really did was stand in the middle and try and stop them without actually telling jade to STFU. Jo, dani and jack just sat there because they thought it was funny and they're pigs. Look at what's going on with dirk now, they just need someone to pick on.

BULLY Jade Goody has REFUSED to be interviewed by police probing the racist row in the Celeb Big Brother house.

Detectives have made repeated attempts to speak to Jade, 25, over her treatment of Shilpa.

But her agent wouldn’t let officers see her after her eviction last Friday and she has snubbed Hertfordshire Police attempts ever since.

A police source said: “She’s apologising left, right and centre on TV.

“But she isn’t cooperating with us which makes us think her apologies are rather hollow. We just want to get to the bottom of everything and that means speaking to Jade as well as Jo, Danielle and Shilpa.”

Meanwhile, BB bosses said this summer’s show would be toned down in the wake of the row.


Channel 4 chief Andy Duncan spoke of “important creative and tonal challenges about where Big Brother goes next”.

He said: “We can’t not take what happened into account in the way we think about Big Brother 8.” Mr Duncan admitted the show had appeared slow to react to the bullying — but said no one would be sacked.

Oh Dear so now the talentless chav thinks she is above the law. Lets hope an arrest follows soon

Well Done Shilpa! A truly deserving winner, really glad she won. Jade owes her A LOT after the way she stuck up for her tonight. Shilpa's played no games and has been herself throughout the whole series IMO, which is a lot more than can be said for some of them. Congrats to a true winner!

[Chloe O'brien]

Well done to shilpa but I thinks she won because of the shenaigans of Jade and the others. I think if the bullying didn't happen Ian or Jo would have possibly won

[tammyy2j]

Congralutions Shilpa i think she only won because of the bully and racism i wanted Dirk or Jermaine to win. I think Davina was harsh on Jo and not on Danielle who i thought was worst.

[Rain_]

Is it just me or does anyone else think that after all the racism row blew up Shilps was going to win no matter what?

Yes she was favourite after that

Anyone else think Jack and Danielle make a good couple
