Amber (BB8) hates the Jews August 8, 2007

I knew that there was “something” that made me dislike Amber, aside from her crying every other minute. Way to judge and call people out Amber, I hope that you are the next one out.

Anti-Semitic Rant on CBS’ ‘Big Brother 8′

If you don’t watch ‘Big Brother’ on CBS, you’re not missing anything. Every summer they trot this turkey out so we can watch hideous human beings compete for money while the cameras roll and host Julie Chen rolls her eyes.

This summer has been no exception. Normally, these people just expose their greed and stupidity. This is a group of people, after all, who in eight seasons have never cracked a book or discussed anything other than their appearances.

But two nights ago on CBS’ overnight feed on Showtime Networks, a player named Amber Siyavus Tomcavage stirred things up. The 27-year-old Las Vegas cocktail waitress must have forgotten that the cameras were on when she — under her breath — had a long discourse with housemate Jameka about “the Jews.” Her mother must be so proud.

The essence of Amber’s complaint? That Jews she has met are “bad” people, and you could tell them by either their noses or their names.

Jameka, who professes to be a Christian, made no reaction to Amber’s declaration. None of the footage has been shown on CBS’ broadcast so far, but it’s all over the Internet.

Amber’s exact statement: “The majority of people I know from New York are Jewish, and the majority of Jewish people I know, my gosh, so many are so selfish. So weird. Even my sister always tells me, she’s like my sister, and my mom will meet someone and I’ll be like, ‘I don’t like that person. That person doesn’t seem like a very good person to me,’ and my mom and sister are like, ‘You know why?’ Why? ‘They’re Jewish.’ How do you know? ‘Amber you can tell by their last name, you can tell by their nose.’ I’m like, ‘Really?’”

There is at least one Jewish player in the house, Eric Stein, also 27, of New York. Stein was made “America’s Player” when the game began — a secret unbeknownst to the other players — and should win barring any surprises. His main quality has been that he is the least offensive of the group.

And what a group they have been. There’s a 44-year-old father who looks like Tommy Lee. His pretty, blond, undernourished 20-year-old estranged daughter is in the house as well. She had a thing with a 25-year-old hunky failed football player (since evicted) who also flirted with the other men and talked about having gay sex.

Only one half of another gay couple is left. They were actually former lovers, but not before we learned the now-evicted one gave the other an STD.

Is this America? No. These are people whose lives are so pathetic and desperate that they want to be on TV 24 hours a day.

In England, there’s a whole channel devoted to “Big Brother” around the clock. Here, thankfully, it’s only three hours a night.

Still, even giving this gang one hour is too much. They are empty souls, devoid of nearly anything remarkable other than their ability to cause revulsion.

P.S.: There was one exception to the awfulness of the types who have come and gone from “Big Brother” since it began stateside. Cassandra Waldon was on the first season back in 2000. Waldon still works, as she did then, for the United Nations. She is now a communications officer. How she got on “Big Brother” is anyone’s guess. She was heads and tails above all her other housemates then. With this latest group, she would have needed an interpreter.
