Big Brother 2020: Housemates

That's totally irrelevant. It's all about the image seven want to portray with big brother.
So? If that’s the case they should of vetted their housemates properly so it’s their own fault for picking instagram models and not through an authentic casting process.

Sure Seven won’t like it, but not everyone is squeaky clean. I’m sure a lot of networks who internationally have employed actors who have posted nudes or done nude modelling in the past haven’t liked it either, but those people still got jobs.

Jamie Durie (host of house rules) was originally in Manpower! Are we judging him for that?

Might as well then line up everyone who has had some form of addiction, scandal or committed a crime who works in the industry or appears on these shows these days.

The network only has themselves to blame for this, but to claim he is some porn person is wrong.
Plus these photos aren’t recent. So it’s clear he’s done this in the past to earn money. Why degrade him for it? He models underwear and clothing now. He’s not running around naked today online.

I'm just saying that your posts were focusing on the wrong thing.
 
I don’t see how. We can agree to disagree.
I’m saying it’s not a Porn Scandal. It’s someone’s past who has taken photos naked and posting suggestive material. Most people have. Big deal.

And I'm saying it's about the image that seven want to portray for big brother. How they want to present the show. What might be nothing to you or me might be concerning news for the channel 7 executives.

Yes. But as I said its more concerning that they didn't vet their Cast members properly.
They went for how many Instagram followers they have and their good looks and missed the critical areas when casting for housemates.

Its their own fault.
Moving forward they can learn by their mistakes.

Well, pobody's nerfect.

Hah well they should be when tens of millions of dollars are involved with this show let alone the whole network hinging on this being a success. Its not excusable in the business world.

Its a mistake yes, but a bloody big one.

I don't blame him for any of this, or in no way should hr feel ashamed for this as hes not at fault here.

Maybe it will get cancelled and moved to channel ten?
 
He is posing in a way that implies that but he’s not masturbating. Most male photos of this kind pose that way. He’s grasping his genitalia in a suggestive way and you don’t have to be masturbating to have an erect penis, And that’s only in 2 of the photos I’ve seen. The rest are all him posing nude. It’s not as though these are stills from a video of him producing pornography or physical sex acts.There’s a big difference there. It’s a headline grab.
It would be similar if it was a female that was topless and was grasping her breasts and calling that masturbating..

Also as mentioned above the photos were posted on a nude blog site on Tuesday so I doubt it’s an exclusive. I feel Ben found them there or was directed to that site
No, the pose he has would be like a woman with her fingers in her vagina... which is sexual and pornographic (once again, not judging).

And I also made the point that most of the photos could be described as "tasteless nudes"... although I'm not sure that applies with an erect penis.

Completely agree. But it is a story but there shouldn't be any consequences as he is a grown man capable of making his own decisions.

OK Sure,

Seems that you have a different view of what is masturbating. He was posing not doing "the act" in my eyes.
Maybe I'm just not as sensitive to this stuff as its 2020.

People are more likely to now go looking for these images because an article has been posted about it. Most wouldn't have even thought about it until now. So really all we have done here is bring it to the public attention hence why it would be a public image problem for Seven
 
I assume Australian society is still somewhat socially conservative.

If this was a contestant from a European series of Big Brother I don't think it would be as potentially controversial.

True dat. I know one season of the british one had a porn star in there. And they've had multiple people from shows like ex on the beach and who've done things like onlyfans on the civilian series.

I guess it can be seen as somewhat controversial though since Australian BB has not had a housemate like this before, at least that i'm aware of. Now with the rise of Only Fans, I think sexual imagery is starting to be seen as not as bad as it used to.

Probably something to do with Australian big brother going to be g rated?

Also remember this from MAFS last year?
Things like this might initiate some negativite attention but I don't think it would be detrimental to whether someone watches the show or not.

How is that relevant if true? The photos are not associated with the production of Big Brother Australia.

It's about projecting an image.
