I have noticed no mater when I ready the current live feed Discussions Shelly is the topic. So I figured I would start a discussion, Her fan page didn't seem the right place for this.

I have real concerns for her life after Big brother there are fans seem to be takin the hate way to far. That I do not and would never condone this is after all a game. What concerns me is her Job in real life requires her to gain the trust of others in order to sale and she has proven she is good at it. I am honestly concerned with the backlash business wise that her actions in the house could have on her job. She has the ability to manipulate people so easily and many of the lies she has told were unnecessary and she seems to have no problem coming up with new ones daily.

I honestly dont get how some people cant get over the fact that its a game!! I really dont think that what she does in the house will or should have an effect on her outside life. If your gonna play a game for 500,000 dollars then I would think you would give it your all. Although I dont agree with some of the stuff she has said and done in the house I do know its just a GAME!! When the show goes off I'm sure like me everyone kinda forgets about big brother.

Vicki, I agree with you. It does seem like Shelly unnecessarily lies or gets involved in something which doesn't benefit her, i.e. getting Kalia to put up Lawon so Rachel would be safe. That made absolutely no sense whatsoever. She could have coasted through that week and Rachel would have been voted out pre-jury - with no blood on her hands. I will never understand the logic in getting Kalia to save Rachel.

If life after BB in academia was not cruel to Regan after his flamboyant and backstabbing behavior in the game, then I feel that Shelly will get a pass on her behavior. BB is a game (but not a game show, according to the court system) which calls for backstabbing, lying, etc. to get ahead in the game and Shelly is now four votes away from the final 2 (but I hope she doesn't make it).

I don't think her business life is going to be necessarily affected by her behavior in the game, it's the outside of the house nut jobs who are tormenting her family and employers that might affect her adversely after the game. Her behavior has been in accordance with the rules of the game, even though it hasn't been appreciated by many of us at times. However, I have found other houseguests' behavior much more objectionable in the past without their receiving threats of the nature that Shelly's family and employer have received.

I hope she goes to jury house on Thursday both to remove her from the game (she's my least favorite right now) and to calm down the extracurricular crapola that is affecting her family/employer right now.

I also agree that Shelly got involved when not necessary. I do not blame her at all for her gameplay but IMO she just layed it on so thick it was a turn off. She got snagged and while she is a smooth talker she choked when faced with the consequences.

It might give one pause (well me, anyways) to consider going on a reality show, regardless of the possible monetary gain, factoring in these awful threats against Shelly's family, (as well as the recent suicide of the husband of a participant on one of those Housewives shows). What kind of lowlife nutter threatens death to a CHILD, cuz they aren't happy with the mother's behavior on TV???? I hope the FBI tracks these folks down and throws the book at 'em!

Maybe now the live feeds can now be discussion of just that! lol

I personally don't think Shelly is a good liar AT ALL. Her lies are so obvious, like the first major one...I'm not here to win, I'm here to propel you to the end... then it was, I don't need the money... then it was, I'll get you a 6 figure job with my company... and it goes on and on. How could anyone possibly believe anything that came from her mouth after that? Those were just the beginning of the long row of flagrant lies that spewed. I don't mind that she lies, it's part of BB. When Shelly and Jordan *made up* and Shelly gave her the reason for flipping on JJ and claimed it was for her family..her daughter, I wish Jordan would have asked her, "I thought you weren't here for the money?". I suppose the reason people are so focused on Shelly is because there is absolutely nothing else to talk about, such a lackluster season.

I think she'll be fine in business and in her personal life. What I'd like to see for Shelly is that she gains some insight to her personality.

I think she has issues with interpersonal relationships. I think she has an unhealthy lust for Jordon and she was, in some way, jealous of Jeff. These are just my personal thoughts on Shelly.

I hate to make anyone repeat, but I had no idea of threats made against Shelly's family, even her daughter? Please someone fill me in!

Oh a few people tweeted threats and so on. The problem with the Internet and mass media of today is that it is very easy for anyone who craves attention to get attention by doing something like that.

TMZ among other sites are reporting some are contacting Josie's school wanting to have her expelled, contacting Shelly's employer trying to have her fired.

I am a little surprised that someone like Shelly with what sounds like a great job would go on Big Brother. There is just so much potential for negative reactions from your job, potential employers and crazy fans afterward. I don't care for Shelly or how she has played the game but I don't want anything bad to happen to her or her family outside the house.

I hope that the threats to Josie can be used in some way to stop cyber bullying. These people are sick and need to be stopped.

See, I don't believe that she has such a great job, I think it's another one of her fabrications to explain why she wasn't here to win.

I've been trying to wrap my head around Shelly for awhile. I like that she's actively playing the game and being a social player and planting seeds. It makes the show more interesting. I like that she isn't there to be everyone's friend as she claims.

There's alot she did though that made me cringe, a double, triple cringe a few times.

This fan hate is ruining the discussions about Shelly because it's made me feel bad to give my opinion about unnecessary claims Shelly has made that were not about gameplay which I do not like or enjoy.

We're being robbed to be able to actually debate this because of the intense feelings of some fans and it sucks. There's alot I'd like to call her out on in regards to being unnecessary but it seems insignificant now in view of the death threats so for me she's been the houseguest I would have liked to engage in discussion the most about but can't.

Someone also posted on Facebook the number and address of Shelly's local Child Protective Services and told people to report her as a child molester so they would take Josie away from her. I also saw a Titter post that said Josie should be raped and murdered and it didn't matter what order.

Here is the link to the article that I got the above information

SERIOUSLY sick individuals!!

Good Lawd. Shelly'll be just fine and so will her kid. As fine as they all are after they do the show and as fine as they were before. What's sicker to me than even the ridiculous hate sites is the disdain for her lying and scheming on BB. It's beyond the pail. Yeah, yeah, but she lied too much and to too many, and got away with too much, blahblahblah. Jeff and Jordan got got. Mostly Jeff. The pity party for this half million dollar winner whose only ambition seems to remain cute and clueless just baffles the hell out of me. Always will.

LOL... yeah... me too Chippy. I have absolutely no problem with her lying on the show - that is part of the game. I do have a problem with the death threats against the family.

And like I said earlier, the only thing I questioned was her getting involved in situations where she didn't need to (i.e. saving Rachel).

I don't have a problem with her lying;I just hate to see her lie about what another person <Adam> did or did not say. The people on the" I hate Shelly" bandwagon need a life and Jesus; they should be ashamed of themselves. This is a stupid game on tv and that sort of behavior is uncalled for.

Feh. She lied on Adam while he stood right there with his thumb up his, uh, nose. He needs to put on his big boy pants and man up for himself. She was backed into a corner and tried to lie her way out of it. Happens. And guess what? Till the tailored coup de 'Jor came into the picture followed by the tailored endurance comp for veto (as if), she was sittin' pretty. Can't have that with two vets in the game, especially when one has sainthood pending. Voila. Duos. Buh bye Shelly... production don't like ya either. lol

It's not just that she lied to J/J and turned on them. It's that she went out of her way to not just create an alliance with them but to *befriend* them, as if the friendship had more meaning than just a game alliance.

That's why Jordan gave her the phone call, because she thought there was more to their relationship.

And that's why the turning hurt more than most, and why a lot of fans were outraged. She went too far.

And that's why no one else in the house trusts her now either. It was bad relationship and bad game.

I am amazed and dumbfounded by the death threats over a stupid game with people who go insane after a few months. So the hell what, she lied, she schemed, she stuck her nose where it didn't have to be. So you want to kill her innocent 8 year old little girl? What kind of crazy, sick pervert with no life at all would even suggest that her daughter should be murdered and raped and it doesn't matter what order? OMG Really? I liked Jeff, I liked Jordon, and at first I liked Shelley too, and I can't stand Portia or Kalia but I would never want them harmed in any way. Why all the hate toward Shelly, Kalia was the one who nominated them, Portia is the one who didn't save him. People, really, get a life and be this passionate about things that really matter in this life, not some stupid tv show. Geez.

Ok, stepping off my soap box now.

I don't get the fan hate. Shelly hasn't said or done anything worse than other houseguests have done on Big Brother. There have been betrayals in the past. Remember Jennifer betraying Kaysar in BB6? People lie. People backstab. You have to manipulate your opponents. Sending threats to someone's family is just the sign of a disturbed individual who shouldn't be watching reality TV.Shelly is the one who tilted the game to the All-Stars from the beginning. She's played all sides and what frequently happens when you do that, has happened to her. She's gone. But it is just a TV show and people should leave it at that.

The way Big Brother could salvage Shelly's reputation is to come up with a twist saying there was a mystery saboteur in the house and shelly played it to perfection!!

Exactly Bblover and Bygjon. And so the hell what if Shelly befriended Jordan. They befriend one another out of whatever it is- likely because they're stuck together 24/7. It doesn't mean diddly squat. Nor should it when you're trying to win half a million dollars. Not to mention they UNbefriend each other season after season.

Jeff befriended Brendon. They seemed to be pretty good pals, right? Well, until it benefitted Jeff NOT to be a good pal anymore.

Rachel seems to think she has a real friendship with Jordan at the moment, well, until she overheard Jordan/Shelly yesterday confirming their f3 deal earlier in the game. IF Rachel went to pieces and lashed out at everyone over it, she'd be the bad guy...

Jordan (to a lesser extent Jeff) will never be the bad guy and that's the part I cannot stomach and the part that gets in the way of talking game. Befriending is just a consequence of the circumstances. Plus, Shelly was legitimately a big JeJo fan from their season. Had she not felt betrayed or felt she didn't have a prayer at winning over them, she wouldn't have turned.

And if it wasn't Jordan who was UNbefriended, noone would give two shakes of a donkey's posterior.
