America’s next top model February 4, 2007

We just finished watching America’s next top model.I’m so glad the pretentious Melrose did not win, not that it matters to me in anyway. But I feel that if someone like her won, that would be so wrong. We need to send out the message to the world that it’s better to be natural, ture to yourself and others and be NICE to people, not competing ALL THE TIME.

Melrose girl is a good looking girl, very good looking in fact. However, if you made that many people on the show, plus me (and my husband), dislike her that much, then I don’t think she is a good model to sell any product. I think to be a successful commercial model, you need to have a likable character and look natural. This girl makes me wants to throw the product she sells at the tv raher than buying the bl@@dy product.

Also, I think the only real her I saw was when they announced the winner and she left without congratulating the winner but with one of the most spiteful smile. That probably was the most honest thing I have seen of her.

Jade and The ‘Bad’ Brother February 3, 2007

I feel so sorry for Jade who had to go into the rehab because of the pressure after she came out of the Big Brother house. Jade is poorly educated, everyone knows that, Big Brother’s producer knows that. She was a ‘crack baby’ born in Bermondsey, her father was in and out of jail throughout her life, her mother is a drug addict.  She had no one to educate her.  Here comes ‘clever’ Big Brother who carefully planted Jade in the program along with her mother and her boyfriend whom her mother doesn’t like. If that doesn’t guarantee the potential conflict enough, they tossed in a few more potential people for conflict just in case. Then the ’sophisticated’ Channel 4 watched her walked into the big brother house and fall into the trap which everyone knows she will, and she did. And then they pointed the spotlight on Jade as if it is a surprise that the poor schooled girl who speaks her mind lost her temper in there. Imagine being under the artificial pressure environment 24 hours a day for as long as she was in there. Channel 4 joined in and pointed their fingers to the Big Brother and Jade, tried to look innocent. Well, who approved the show to go on air, may I ask?   Yes, I agree that Jade was a bully in there but I don’t believe she is a racist. She is half black herself as far as I know. To me, Michael Richards is a racist, Mel Gibson is a racist, Jade isn’t. She is just naive to call Indian people Pumpadum. But I think she doesn’t even know it can be interpreted as racism. In fact I think there is undercurrent racism in
England anyway.  In my opinion, Jade is a victim. Big Brother is to blame. They twisted what used to be a straight forward program into something nasty.  The program Big Brother takes its name from Nineteen Eighty-Four and a similarly named figure is big mama — the informal name for the Internet censor on web boards in
China. “Big Brother” is a character in Nineteen Eighty-Four, in the society that  everybody is under complete surveillance by the authorities. The people are constantly reminded of this by the phrase “Big Brother is watching you”, which is the core “truth” of the propaganda system in this state. The program became popular because majority of English people can relate the glass ceiling and the glass walls in their lives to the low ceiling and the physical boundary in Big Brother program.

But again, they have gone too far his time. They should just go back to its original form and let people in there react to how they react without any stupid lights, alcohol influence and carefully plotted plan. The program has lost its innocence.

They make a silly girl’s life hell in return with more interest to the program. The real nasty cruel people are the producer and the channel 4 in my opinion.
