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 ,

[237SJ]

Lots of people have had some horrible times

[Bobbisox1]

Yes, but they're not broadcast are they ?

[237SJ]

No, because they don't choose to put their lives 'out there' and make a lot of money in the process.

[Bobbisox1]

There's Gemma Collins and there's the GC , are you watching it?

[Sunk]

I have no idea who Gemma Collins is.
Just Googled her and she is famous for being a celebrity on ITVBe (which I have never watched).

[Hopkirk]

There is no way I would watch a second of a programme with PM and GC on it.

[Bobbisox1]

I was the same hoppy but under that persona is a very sad lady

[jennyjoan]

I sorta agree bobbs re the sadness etc but i cant warm to her at all. do think thousands people have come through far so much more than her

[Bobbisox1]

I guess she was in the right place at the right time re.reality stuff , I always thought she was brash but behind that is heartache

[zebo]

Sunk, I am so glad not to be the only one, she's one of those names that seem to appear everywhere yet they're never seen to do anything creative, sporting etc.

[Stickybottle]

It does seem that being cuddly and not the sharpest knife in the drawer is something to be celebrated, in contrast to Joey Essex who is buff but makes neanderthal man look like Einstein.
Why is being ridiculously uneducated a reason for celebrity status in the uk.

[douglas9401]

Modern day Bedlam, innit.

[Jackdaw33]

Shades of Jade Goody.

[gulliver1]

Essex ? ...... No comment.

[jennyjoan]

GC did say she was very intellectual and sharp? I wondered at that tho.

[david small]

I would never, repeat never put my hands up Gemma Collins.

[Deskdiary]

Can’t stand the woman - it’s her accent mainly, it just really grates on my nerves, plus she has one of those slappable faces. And she’s massively fat.

[Deskdiary]

I don’t dislike her because she’s fat - but she is a whale.

[Hopkirk]

She's famous for being famous.

[Bobbisox1]

She's actually a very vulnerable person who's self harmed , had to abort a baby because of its deformity, in her own word she created a monster with the GC tag, Yes she pulls in money from it but is she happy? No, I don't think she is
