Hands Up, I Never Liked Gemma Collins

[Bobbisox1]

But listening to her on Piers Morgan's Life Stories, ,I feel so sad ( and admire her)
She's had some horrible times ,

[barry1010]

I've never watched those shows so can't comment. No idea who Gemma Collins is nor the chap in the advert with the teeth.

[emmie]

no one deserves death threats, why would they.... can't understand people's mentality that make them. doesn't mean i like her but she doesn't deserve verbal abuse or worse.

[tiggerblue10]

I didn't watch it as I don't like Piers and try to avoid watching anything with him in it since all the shouting and not letting people speak on GMB. Thats no reason for me to start sending him death threats and bile on Twitter though.

[burlyshirley]

barry - I love Come Dine with Me, keep waiting for a new series.

[emmie]

i don't like him either tiggs, boreish behavior has me switching off tv.

[Bobbisox1]

Piers isn't like he is on GMTV Tiggs,
I think you might mean Rylan Clark as the man with the teeth Barry? :0)))

[burlyshirley]

Not a fan of PM, but watched him interview Captain Sir Tom because I was a fan of his and it was a lovely interview.

We watched it last night. I've always thought of Gemma as a Drama Queen and she didn't disappoint. I've only ever seen her in the short time she was on I'm a celebrity, but I do realise this 'GC' is a 'Persona', a greatly exaggerated example of her personality. Unfortunately, I didn't come away with a different impression of her -she makes her money out of being over the top, like so many celebs these days. Someone needs to tell her to lose weight -not for cosmetic reasons, for health reasons, instead of pandering to her crys of 'body shaming'. Also, her claims of death threats were a bit OTT -no one has actually threatened to kill her - tweeting she should get in a car and crash it is horrendous yes -but is not a death threat. No, my opinion did not change of her but I don't have to watch her on TV so its no big deal.

[Bobbisox1]

Hehe, say it as it is Aunt Polly ( you always do ) ;)
As I said earlier, I neither like or dislike her but I saw a deeply troubled person underneath the Diva last night

[burlyshirley]

Agree APG.

Q; What is reality TV?
A; TV for the brain dead.

[Bobbisox1]

The only Reality TV I will admit to watching is I'm a Celeb
Never watched
TOWIE, Geordie Shore, Love Island or any other of the ones that have invaded our TV in the last decade or so

[jennyjoan]

one wee last word from me - now I can't remember the programme but it was about GC I think in Hollywood 2019 and she was in a cab - but something untoward happened - like I think nobody knew who she was - and I heard her say something "don't they know who I am". That clinched it for me.

As for saying she is fat or overweight on here - that's very very unkind.

[jennyjoan]

oh sorry another wee word - I found the interview very shallow/hollow. but hope she does well in her "career" and lose a bit of weight for her health's sake and I hope I take my own advice as well re the weight business. LOL

[Bobbisox1]

I don't call what she does a 'career' JJ like many before her , Katie Price springs to mind ' Gemma will fade into oblivion, ITV take people like them and make them believe they are * stars* where in reality, they will be gone for others to take there place, I cringe when I hear of them being addressed as stars , eughhhh

[chelle7272]

If she is that deeply troubled why is she making money talking to Piers about it and not helping herself?

[Bobbisox1]

Because she's being paid for it Chelle, like many others who've been interviewed by PM on his show

[pastafreak]

The only thing I've ever seen her in, was Celebrity Master Chef. My impression was certainly of someone who demanded attention, and thought her antics were deserving of it. Also, I thought I'd seen headlines claiming she'd lost weight.

[Ken4155]

^
Yeah but she found it, again.

[Apc2604]

Hmmmm. Piers Morgan and Gemma Collins???? A nightmare. But I must admit I have never seen Gemma Collins in anything on television except the odd advert for something she is. Piers Morgan is always switched off.
