Marcieb | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 11:36 am     -- I think she's loyal to people; if she likes you, it's with all her heart. The way she defended Marc when Josh insulted him was, to me, endearing. Lisa and Dannie were there and didn't run out of the room to protect him. -- I like, as do most so far, how she stirs things up. Lisa to me is so boring that I forget she's in the room. When this all first began, a lot of people said that about Jason and he learned to contribute. Wish Li would. -- Chiara's still finding herself and is definitely leaving no stone unturned. Whether you call it a need to grown up or joi d'vivre is a personal choice. -- She's not afraid to help out--look at the tons of laundry she did daily last week. --She's not catty just to be mean like Amy. I think her self-esteem is stronger that way than Mar's where he tears down EVERYTHING. During the AC dinner, he complained about carnations not be good enough and the vase wasn't to his taste and on and on. I could think of a bunch more things I like about Chiara but won't take up any more time. I take her outrageousness with a grain of salt so am not nearly as offended as so many here are. |
Catfat | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 11:38 am     She has a nice tan. And nice sunglasses. |
Earthmother | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 11:41 am     Nevermind!! Movin' on...Don't go there!! |
Spoosh | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 12:00 pm     Well, I am not a Chiara fan, but I respect those who are. In BB1 it seemed like I was the only Jamie fan around, and after a while it was annoying to see her bashed constantly. If Chiara's your girl, stand by her. Just interested to see if she had any supporters, because from reading other threads, I couldn't find any. |
Strkaholic | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 12:03 pm     Marcieb...excellent post! Thank you. |
Sunrise | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 12:05 pm     apologies mod! i shouldn't of gone there. totally understand why my post was removed. i'll try again: i like chiara cause she would be a fun date. |
Chelle | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 12:16 pm     I like Chiara. I know that I am in the minority, but I think that she has gotten a bad rap in the house. I remember so well how torn up she was when she thought Lisa had stabbed her in the back. She didn't stab Lisa on purpose. She didn't even know she was holding the knife until it was all over. Yes, Chiara goes for shock value. She likes to be the center of attention, but I bet you that she is a very loyal friend if you are straight with her. I bet that she will be really hurt when she sees what Danielle and Lisa have been doing behind her back. Chiara told Lisa why she did what she did, but with Danielle's help Lisa has held a grudge. I would rather have a friend like Chiara than ten like Danielle or Lisa. I like people who aren't afraid to be themselves. If we believe that Jason is a good judge of character let's look at who he has the crush on. I bet you anything he will be sorry for some of his actions when he gets out. Amy has no reason to hate Chiara other than that Chiara got the man she was after. I love Chiara, and I am not afraid to admit it. |
Nutsy | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:14 pm     Okay...this is NOT a Chiara bash. I'm very interested to hear from a Chiara fan why they can support her, in the face of this behaviour: From live feeds:
Quote:BB - Amy please go to the DR Chiara - Amy you're a c***.
Anyone? I'm seriously curious. |
Crazydog | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:17 pm     I agree Chelle. You make some good points. Nutsy, re Chiara's comments, she was angry in the face of Amy's nomination of her. It's only natural to respond to a nomination. As far as to her choice of words, that's part of who she is. She's not like the other girls, and she isn't afraid to show it. |
Nutsy | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:20 pm     So it's okay for her to react to her nomination, but everyone else who she or one of her pals nominates should take their lumps? Again, not bashing, just discussing ... |
Sam222 | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:20 pm     I know two wrongs don't make a right but have you heard the names Amy called her? |
Nutsy | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:22 pm     Yes, Sam, I did. Not supporting Amy either, just askin' about those who want to put Chiara on a pedestal, that's all.  |
Strkaholic | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:23 pm     I like Chiara, however, I have never put her on a pedestal, nor would I ever..I reserve pedestals for those I love. |
Fuzzybear | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:24 pm     I agree they all call names. I haven't heard anyone not call each other names... oh wait Gerry really is decent when it comes to this. anyway this is off topic and the moderator is going to beat you up ;) |
Crossfire | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:26 pm     C does not like A...no big deal to me, I can understand why. She is certainly not the only one in the house to hold a negative opinion of another houseguest. But the reason I would support that statement, is that it makes the game interesting. That is what C brings to the table. I'm not interested in a lovefest. If no one would do off the wall stuff, it would not be as interesting to me. I like C as an excellent antagonist, she might not intend to play the role, but she does it really well. I do not need to defend the behavior as it adds spice to the game. That is how I get around liking her in the house even if I do not like her personally. Hopfully that explains how I can be a fan, without liking her, or 'bashing' (so sick of that word). |
Zachsmom | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:26 pm     strkaholic- never put one on a pedestal..keep them by your side as your equal..that's true love.. |
Nutsy | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:26 pm     Not off topic at all - the title of the thread is asking if anyone here is a fan of Chiara - I'm just asking those fans to step up and explain to me, in the face of Chiara's recent comments, their support of her. That's all.  |
Nutsy | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:27 pm     Thanks Crossfire - egg-sactly what I was looking for! |
Marcieb | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:29 pm     While the use of that c-word is particularly offensive to most of us, to Chiara it isn't. Maybe it's like African-Americans calling each other by the n-word [I feel like I'm in grade school here] and it's not offensive, but if anyone else says it, watch out. Just maybe Chiara sees Amy as a sister in c***ness. [And maybe I'll just "sit quietly and look the fool rather than open my mouth and let the world know I am," like Gerry used after the POV.] |
Crazydog | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:29 pm     Nutsy all of the houseguests have faults and means to express their feelings. Chiara's may be a little extreme but she is allowed to do so however she wants to. It's what makes each houseguest unique. Every houseguest has reacted after nomination in their own way. This is supposed to be a thread discussing Chiara's good points. Just because you put in a disclaimer that you are not bashing doesn't mean that you are not doing so. |
Nutsy | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:30 pm     Marcie "Just maybe Chiara sees Amy as a sister in c***ness." LOL! I love it! Well ... I don't love that word, but I do love the way you phrased that! |
Nutsy | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:35 pm     Crazydog - I'm simply asking people to discuss the good points they see, with a reference to a specific statement. I'm not bashing anyone, just trying to get some insight. Thanks to all who have given me that insight. I just love this board, and the posters who engage in adult discussion about the game. |
Penpoint | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 04:35 pm     Count me as a Chiara fan--proud to admit it! She's my favorite HG, right after Roddy. |
Brynah | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 05:01 pm     Nutsy: "I'm simply asking people to discuss the good points they see..." O.K. how about this...she did ask Dani to "take care" of Roddy when she was gone. Of course what she actually said was "I feel like a f***ing mother, I asked Dani to take care of you..." Despite her mouth, she really does seem to care for Roddy. And didn't she offer to make Gerry a sandwich today? And, here's my personal favorite...she no longer spins on the lazy susan and spreads her legs. I'd say that was a good point!!! Well, now here's the BEST point...she's a whole lot better than Nicole! How was that? |
Secretsmile | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 05:08 pm     I wouldn't call myself a Chiara fan, but I do so wish I had a chance to raise her with my girls. I'm sorry she wasn't given an opportunity to love, and respect herself more. |
