BB absolutely disgusting?

[Cantwait2no]

Is anyone else outraged by the amount of bullying in Celeb BB this year, I think its aweful, first Pete rips Jodie to bits and now its Traci, soft targets Pete!!! Would love to see someone so in there and sort Pete out, I know its his personality but it stinks to see people reduced to tears on National TV. Do Channel 4 no longer give warnings for agressive behaviour?, what is going on?

[andy-hughes]

I would agree that Pete's bullying of Traci last night was unjustified and unpleasant.

There is a very fine line between 'speaking your mind' and just being rude and offesnsive - and last night, Pete not only crossed it, he appeared to making plans to move in on the other side of it!

Traci seems a sweet person, and her confusion at what she thought was simply ironic banter, and slowly realised was a sustained and nasty personal attack was cruel to see, and I hope the viewing public give Pete his wish, and vote him out.

I agree Cantwait2no. I think his behaviour is appalling. He obviously feels better about himself by belittling others and hurting their feelings. He's pathetic and in a strange way deserves a certain amount of sympathy as he obviously has issues and is unable to relate to people (or reality) in general. If I were Tracie I'd have told him to f*** off and a lot more besides!! He has a cheek calling Tracie fake when he sits there with his plastic face caked in slap, wearing womens clothes.

The sooner he is evicted the better.

I don't understand what happened between Pete and Traci last night. He just seemed to rip in to her all of a sudden for no reason. I'm impressed with how well she coped with it until he had left the room though. Seeing her cry would have probably topped it off for him and given him more ammunition. Sometimes he does make sense and his speaking of the truth is worth it, however there was no reason to just try and break the poor woman down. I personally think he loves being the centre of attention and as he wasn't because others had been nominated, he couldn't handle the fact that not all eyes were on him.

When are people finally going to realise that if someone says "I always speak my mind no matter what, it's just being honest" it's code for "I'm a complete c**k". Since when has speaking your mind in any situation no matter whether you hurt someone or not been an admirable quality?

[WoWo]

Well said SuperNick.

I totally agree the man is bully. I have always said people only bully to make themselves feel better, look at him, he needs to makes himself feel better. He obviously needs good psychotherapy sessions to help him deal with some issues then maybe he would leave other people alone. I reckon everyone in there is scared of him, and he just bites at everyone first to stop them mention what a balls up his face is.

I posted a similar question the day after Jodie's eviction and lots of people seemed to think that it didnt count as bullying cause 1) they were famous 2) they were getting paid for it. Glad to see some sensible answers in this one.

I agree that Pete certainly overstepped all boundaries and to see him go to the kitchen and boast of having 'sorted Traci out' was disgusting. More to the point though should not Big Brother have castigated him for calling Traci a *****! At the very least he should be punished by being automatically up for the next eviction?

[Drusilla]

If you don't like the behaviour on the programme, then stop watching, reduce the viewing figures and the Big Brother format will die a death.

I wish some of you would admit you enjoy watching the ritual ridicule and humiliation of this televised bear pit and wouldn't go near the programme if everyone behaved like polite Victorians and acted in a pleasant and responsible manner.

Every contestant is told what to expect and encouraged to push the boundaries of good taste and decency. With every Big Brother show the matter of good taste becomes increasingly redundant in order to maintain viewer interest and show something new.

There are serious concerns amongst mental health professionals that the 'pushing of the envelope' in such programmes will continue until a tragedy occurs and some poor soul, probably not in a celebrity edition, hurts themself or another contestant.

Be honest, part of the audience for this type of show would really love to see a suicide attempt, live on air.

I think petes problem is that he see traits, that he himself posseses, in other people and for some reason doesn't like it - he wants to be completely original and the only one with those traits, and when he spots similarities he turns on them.

I know a lot of people are annoyed most at others for the very things that others would say is most annoying about them.

A thief always thinks others are a thieves, a cheat suspects others of cheating, a liar thinks everyone else is lying, a fake thinks others are fake, and i think its because he is so similar to the people he is bullying most, that it brings his own personality into sharp relief and he can see so much of himself in others

you can see it in barrymore - he has a fit if anyone attention seeks or tries to be an joker or entertainer and is irritating and not know when to stop - yet he is the worst for it.

i thought him and jodie would get on - discuss clothes make-up, horrible press, boobs etc

[Drusilla]

I agree with joko's point about Pete. He attacks certain traits in others which he sub consciously recognises in himself.

[joko]

pete also thinks his surgery and fake look is justified, whereas no-one elses is, because he's older and he's done it 'for himself' - I would say that is worse!!

Jodie and traci have had surgery in order to further their carreers - it was a business decision, a way to improve their lives - he has just doen it because he's vain and weird and selfish (how much did all that surgery cost?)

to what gain? so he can sit round his house looking 'pretty' ? pretty effed up i'd say.

I work in the industry - and live in liverpool and i have never seen him at premieres, clubs, shows etc

I know, especially now that if he walked around liverpool looking like that he will get battered.

I personally think all power to people who want to do this kind of body modification, each to their own, and its very brave - but this guy is so rrrrepugggnant i can't see any redeeming features to him. Although he can be very witty, but so are many sarcastic people.

Anyone else and i would be singing their praises and fighting their corner. I believe we only get one life and we should live it our way not conform to societies rules

I found it very uncomfortable viewing and I was hoping that one of the other housemates there were going to stop in and put a stop to it.
At least Preston had the sense to leave the room, without an audience Pete would soon have become bored and moved on.
