celebrities who need to wash their linen in public

Don't watch programme but what's with all this 'emotional incontinence'.Peolr centi g everywhere. Including on facebook. DD1 has a friend who comes over as being so needy on FB. She's nearly 31 not a teenager .If I were her mother I'd be having a word

Whoops 'people venting'

I have a friend who likes to think of herself as an intellectual , I don't watch Loose Women, I think they panel are very 'C' list , but she often regales me with their doings, much to my surprise. I thought they would have been beneath her interest.

I haven't seen much of it and years ago too so must dip in some day to see what it's like. My son watched it as a teenage so suspect it's entertainment at a low level to get the numbers up.

I had no idea an existing marriage would be a topic. So sorry for the child/children. Have some parents lost it Altogether? Forgotten how things can be held inside emotionally for years?

Superficial trash yeuch...

I don't want to know anything about celebrities. It's the public that makes them celebrities. They are people and nothing special..

Who can fail to agree that sometimes we women feel comfortable and secure within ourselves taking our partners for granted that no matter what, they will always see us as the same woman they married years before. Colleen was a very attractive woman but she took her husband for granted that he would always see her as the woman he married all the years before. The same can apply to men.He admitted he did not find her attractive any more and looking how mumsy (sorry for that ladies) Colleen has become I can see why.I don't agree with plastic surgery to keep you looking young but keeping your figure with the correct diet changing your hairstyle and fashion makes a world of difference.This does not mean it is always the answer and there could be other reasons for a failed marriage.Looking at other women on LW around Colleens age especially Jane Moore should give her an idea of what her husband means.

Not interested, but from the HUGE amount of 'celebrity' magazines for sale lots of people seem to be.

Sorry Sarahellen, if a woman wants to keep slim, look young etc it should be for herself and her own self respect not for a partner. I don't want to be a Stepford wife.

I hate loose woman it's a load of rubbish celebs talking rubbish, none have got a brain between them. Really couldn't careless about Colleen nolans love love . There are people in this world who are going through much more pain and sorrow.

Don't know why she as made it public knowledge some things should be kept behind doors . My oh always says of celebs he thought everyone should know them it's a word what's wrongly used now trouble is young people are influenced by these people

Can't help but agree, 'snobby comments '.
If you watch loose women you pretty much know what you are going to get, a bunch of women sharing what's going on in their lives and discussing other topics of the day. I haven't seen it for a very long time however I know what expect of it.
Just saying x

Maybe you should check out Loose Women again dogsmother, as someone else said it has become an anti man platform in the main.

Interesting to think about this in the week that Zsa Zsa Gabor has died.

Now - Zsa Zsa was more famous for being famous than for her acting skills - but she had a ready wit and came out with some famous one-liners. She may have been married several times but always seemed to conduct herself with class and in a ladylike fashion.

Perhaps some of these celebs who suffer with loose tongues could learn a thing or two from her example.

Could either GrammaH or dogsmother please say exactly which comments on this thread are 'snobby'.
Surely posters can express a dislike for a television programme without being denounced as snobs.
Unless you specify whose comments you are referring to, how can those you deem guilty of snobbishness respond to your criticisms?

GrammaH said which comments.

It's up to her what she to tells the public personally I wouldn't watch the programme it's four women who all talk over each other

But why watch them if they are like that, I accept I haven't watched for a long while and I used to to quite enjoy when Kay a Scottish lady used to be chairing it, however if it so irksome then turn over. I rather enjoy other ladies chatting learning other views but do dislike 'men hating' .

Never seen it,never watched any of the soaps either,(except Dallas and Payton Place)
So called celebrities don't interest me in the least,silly old wanna bees or has beens.
Gullible people only help boost their bank balance.

Ankers I see that GrammaH objected to posters using the word 'vulgar'.
The Oxford Dictionary gives two current meanings for 'vulgar'
Definition of vulgar in English:

vulgar
ADJECTIVE

1Lacking sophistication or good taste:
‘a vulgar check suit’

2Making explicit and offensive reference to sex or bodily functions; coarse and rude:
‘a vulgar joke’
I don't think it is snobbish to use the word in either of those ways, if it is an accurate description.

There is a third meaning, 'Characteristic of or belonging to ordinary people' and if this was used in a derogatory way I suppose it might be considered snobbish.
However this usage is 'dated' according to the OED and I doubt if that was the meaning intended by the posters on this thread.

They don't try very hard to make it work. Discuss their problems with each other instead of the public. I have been married 50 years and talked over problems and solved them

Cannot abide the very concept of celebrities:" have beens"/ "have never beens" whose public profile is based on selling themselves and their "stories" rather than on any talent or achievement.

Couldn't care less about Colleen Nolan or her private life.

Well I own up to using the word "vulgar" under definition number 1. Lacking in decorum. Quite happy to be called a snob if that's the case.
Thank you janeainsworth. Interesting.

Loose Women is daytime television and like Jeremy Kyle is moving wallpaper for couch potatoes. Why on earth would I be interested in the marriage of a woman who once sang with her sisters ?

Isn't she the woman who paid for her 16 year old son to visit a prostitute? It stuck in my mind as it's such a bizarre thing for a mother to even consider...

I think all of this celebrity cult and the concentration on what people look like is all a smoke screen to deter us from considering the real problems of the world
Did I struggle so hard to stand up for women's rights to have young women become obsessed with such trivia? I think not. Maybe I've just become cynical?
