Jade 2013 Appreciation thread

Lol, I figured you may have thought that. I re read what I typed and was like, whoa not what I meant at all.

Agree to disagree.

Hope you guys are voting. I think drews time is up, too much focus on ed leaving, so doubt he will now

That's what I thought, deep down you know she's got no hope in hell of ever beating Tahan, Drew or Tim don't ya? ;)

Why don't you spare yourselves the trouble of voting for something that's inevitable and donate that money to charity or something, treat yourselves to an overseas holiday perhaps?
I love Jade and will continue to support her. She's one of my favourite housemates this year. It'd be nice if you could stop mouthing off now. This is a thread for Jades fans. Off you go.
 
I'm a non-voter, but I would hope people in this thread would understand that there may be people who are voting for both Ed and Jade because they like both of them. All votes to save Jade should be encouraged no matter what and no one should feel bad about voting for both.

At the same time, splitting votes as a strategy is particularly ineffective in this eviction round. My theory all along has been that people should just vote for who they like and let the chips fall where they may. I realize the successful Tully eviction has had people convinced they can game the system, but it hasn't really been successful since, and the Ben eviction was clear evidence that it can backfire big time.

End of my sermon on voting philosophy!

I was far from trying to make people feel bad for voting for Ed. I was making a point that voting for Ed only for Jades benefit would more then likely back fire and result in her leaving. If your already an Ed fan then go ahead and vote. :P My point was Jade fans should be voting for Jade only.

Ben went home because everyone who likes Ben liked someone else. They liked Tim and Ben, Drew and Ben, Jade and Ed and so on so when it came to voting people were either splitting their votes (which almost sent Tim home, only 1 % between the 4 :P) or they were supporting their first choice, which sadly for Ben was not him.

Yeah, I figured when I read your following post that wasn't what you meant. Apologies for getting defensive if you didn't mean it as a personal stab.
 
There is an article about tahans mum talking about tahans cousin committing suicide in woman's day. I think given the recent loss that her emotions are still raw and hearing the comments made by jade around the same time just hurt her. I know you think she is exaggerating it, but surely some sympathy for the fact the death is still fresh.

Cousin committed suicide after finding out they have brain tumours.

Do you have a link to the article? That is horrible and of course I have sympathy for her. As I said its natural to be upset as a mother. But there is quite a big difference between "she wished you would fall in a hole and die" and "she said if you fell in a hole and died she doesn't think she would care".
 
Yeah, I figured when I read your second post that wasn't what you meant. Apologies for getting defensive.

Don't ever apologise, we all know you are a lovely poster, and in no way would I ever think you would be mean even in the slightest :)
[MENTION=35199]Angel[/MENTION], I posted it on the previous page here. I just had this discussion with Gemini lol. I wasn't defending her actions or attacking her actions. I'm neutral on this topic. She may have seen red when she heard the comment and interpreted differently. Unlike us who break every detail down, she may not have done that herself. But who knows. I don't place judgements on how a mother will react. Anyways here is the article again.

I'm willing to make a deal with Jade fans. Given you were so confident that the 50% save in the last eviction is a true reflection of Jade's popularity among the voting public, I'm willing to put $500 on the line if Jade receives that percent of Save votes in this upcoming eviction again.

If she doesn't what I expect in return if for Jade fans to close this thread and direct their voting money to a worthy winner in the beautiful Miss Tahan for the last week of the series.

So how about it, we got a deal or what?

We never said she would have got that % up against others, we have no way of knowing that. We were just bloody proud that we had saved her. People like you were pretty rude in not allowing us to be so. :P

Everything else aside you guys were telling us she was in trouble, we were worried she was in trouble and she got over 50% so yeah, we were pretty happy with our efforts. Nothing wrong with that and deserve to have a little thunder afterwards.
 
As Tahan's mother, I don't blame her for being hurt by anything someone said about her child.
BUT.. I think that Jade's family would have exactly the same right to be upset about Tahan mocking and bitching about Jade at any given opportunity.
Just because as a mother it's your right to be protective of your child, doesn't mean we as viewers should believe that Tahan is some victim when she's not.
And at the moment I feel pretty much all of them are using Jade as a tool to get to Ed and that doesn't sit well.

Big Brother is becoming exhausting!

no, I think we should believe what we see. and I don't think Jade really ever had anything against Tahan she just unfortunately, like the sisters, got caught up in Mikkaylas crap.

The comment she made was made worse by Mikkaylas response.... If jade had just said "if she fell in a hole and died I wouldn't care" it wouldn't have come across as bad as it did with Mikkayla adding that's shed kick dirt on her

Its one thing to not care its another to disrespect
 
That's very fair [MENTION=35834]Sweet_Geek[/MENTION], but at the same time if my baby had a moment of complete sheer frustration over someone who has been making fun of her and her friends for weeks and said a comment like Jade did I'd also understand. I'd sit her down and say the comment was poor taste and she should find a more appropriate way to express her frustration, but I'd certainly understand. I'd also be extremely angry if another mother twisted what she said to try and vilify her. It goes both ways. I just don't see why Tahan's mum would be bringing her cousins death up on the show and in the media like that. It's a tragedy for their family and I personally wouldn't have handelled it that way, but that's just me.

I agree. And I have to say that I am one of those mothers who will pull my own kid up over stuff like this. Would it have bothered me, hell yes but I dont have blinders when it comes to those I love. A spade is still a spade. I am not a 'forgive anything as my child is perfect' kind of mother. If it was me I would have been pissed and upset, but I also would have accepted it because Tahan has dished her own in that house. I have an issue with parents who refuse to see the bad their children do. I dont care who is doing it and have no issue taking control of the matter from either side of the fence.

In her position I would have likely said I vote Jade because when she made a bad worded joke about Tahan it upset me. I get that its a high stress environment and Tahan has also had her moments but as her mother I was still offended by the comment and there for choose to nominate her for 2 points.

Point made, no lying and even people will remember what was said without you bringing it up in words. I dont have a problem with the fact she gave Jade two points because of it, I had a problem with what she said and the way she said it.
 
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Hell will freeze over before I vote for Tahan. In my opinion she does not deserve to win at all. So no. No deal. Plus we love Jade. Why would we close the thread if she's evicted? I know I'll keep reading and posting as long as BB is on. ;)

I will be supporting Jade for as long as she is in the house.

Agreed. Plus that so called 'deal' had no positives for us?? Why would we agree to it? lol
 
No doubt after the way she was rudely cut off at the eviction show that the press went hounding her for info

The situation was in my opinion not handled well.... It was pretty obvious Mike cut her off the way he did to stop the sympathy votes but perhaps pulling her aside and voicing their concerns BEFORE they put a camera in her face may have been a better way to handle the situation.

It did get quite a reaction and left people asking questions, she possibly told her story to get sympathy but i'd say it was more likely to get them to leave her alone and if she didn't talk it wouldn't have taken much to find out anyway. Better to speak up and put the story out there than let rumours fly.

I think they did tell her before the show. She tried anyway. :P
BB is normally pretty straightforward when it comes to things like that.
 
Mate, have a read of the thread before you mouth off. We've all pretty much said we can't see her winning but we want her to beat Ed and Drew. That's always been the case for me. My winner has always been Tim and in my eyes there's nobody that deserves that win over him.

Agreed. Hopefully he gets over his Boog/Drew blues lol

yeah it possible, it just didn't look that way

regardless though I cant condemn her for telling the story, it would have been found out anyway it wouldnt have taken much detective work. Suicide is difficult enough to deal with, without adding to it the rumours that could have started....ive seen the nastiness that bounces around I can just imagine what sort of far out stories that would have attracted :(
 
Oh okay, apologies. In your original post directed at me I was getting the distinct impression that you were trying to say that anyone who could understand what Jade said when she did was a bad mother. I immediately got on the defensive was was like "back the truck up!" because I can certainly understand what Jade said, and I also would understand it if my own daughter said something like that in that situation, and I don't think that makes me a bad mother.

I don't think Tahan's mum nominating Jade for that reason was what anyone had an issue with, but more the way she completely twisted what Jade said to give it a whole new meaning than what was said in reality. Like I said though, whether that was intentional or not I don't know.

I think we will have to agree to disagree with the "Tahan is the victim because it was one against four" line that's thrown around. I just don't buy it when I think it's very obvious why The Sugar Sisters, Jade and Mikk became close and a support network for one another to begin with. Tahan never wanted to be friends with them. She made that extremely obvious. She mocked them consistently with her own friends when they were the majority, but as Tim slowly but surely picked them all off all of a sudden the other girls were the majority and Tahan was on her own playing the "woe is me, I have nobody" card. She brought it on herself. They've all said and done mean things to one another, but I can't just forget the first half of the show and suddenly see Tahan as the innocent victim here because she ended up being on her own while the SS, Mikk and Jade still had one another. She brought it on herself.

And yes, I do find it very interesting how we can watch the same show and see things very differently :)

I totally agree. I cant do the poor Tahan all alone thing. Mik, Jade and the SS had no issue with Tahan. Tahan and her friends started the 'war' and just because Tahans super nice friends ( :P ) went home and she was left alone while Mik, ss and Jade still had each other does not move 'blame' onto the others. She made the bed and she was left to sleep in it. She took things too far early on and personally if I was one of the girls, I would not have been so fast to forget and forgive either so I can totally understand why they would have not wanted to be her friend once she was left alone.
 
right after I posted my last post I jumped on facebook, and a friend of my daughter has posted about it, perfect example of what I mean...

OMG!! just herd tahans cosen killed herself coz she ashaimed to be related to her!! so sad :(

doesn't take much does it
 
Shows us your argument's ability instead of a personal attack. Those who do charity normally do not say loud about it. I don't understand why Tahan got so much support from Australian. I'll be so disappointed if she won. My point of view is that bullying & nasty characters shouldn't be rewarded.

It doesn't matter what others say, we'll support Jade till the end. She is a kind, caring & loyal person so she deserves to be rewarded for who she is. Many of Jade's fans are kind-hearted persons & that's why we appreciate her inside beauty. Make sure you donate more than others b4 you teach them how to do charity.

What they said.
I do my part for the world. I vote for Jade FOR ME! Because I think the world need to embrace and encourage people who follow the rules, have respect, is compassionate, loyal to a fault and has the ability to love so completely. No one can honestly tell me that the world would be a worse place with more people like that in it? :P

I have to admit I like Jade I think shes a sweet girl and any nastiness that's come from her has either been in retaliation or because someone else dragged her down to their level
But her behaviour with Ed is a worry, Im not sure if shes unstable or if BB are just painting her that way
