It's easy if you try.
Poor Emma - guilty of nothing more than being utterly uncontrolled and irretrievably brainless. That sounds quite negative, but what she actually does for me is make me smile. Every time I look at her. She's great. No-one could be more honest and up-front about life. She's so joyous when good things happen, and so obviously sad when bad things happen. No fakery, no airs, no graces.
I suspect we all have much learn from her approach to life. As we pile on layer after layer of control and accommodation, do we actually sacrifice that all important genuiness? I suspect we might. There is certainly a balance to be found.
I hope Emma's happy on the outside, and that she doesn't become too bitter at being the first housemate to be evicted after doing very little wrong and not being the subject of a public vote. She deserves better than this. I hope that life treats her better than Big Brother did.
Quite right - I feel improbably strongly too that she was very badly treated. What had she done wrong - or worse than Victor and Jason anyway. It seems so very unfair that they're still in and she isn't and that BB didn't even give an adequate reason for her eviction. I think we should campaigh for her to be a celebrity in her own right. Power to stupid yet amusing people!
