She did come across rather well in her interview with Davina. She was coherent and lucid throughout, and didn’t use it as an opportunity to bitch or gripe. She got across her mixed feelings about Carole, but ultimately rose above the comments that were made.
Davina: Two weeks – it wasn’t very long. What did it feel like in there?
Amy Alexandra: It’s just gone so, so quickly. A couple of us have been saying it feels like I’ve been there forever, but I haven’t — it was too quick.
Davina: It looked like you were surprised when you heard your name?
Amy Alexandra: I was being optimistic and hoping out of the four of us, I wouldn’t go. Obviously if I could have been in there longer I would have.
Davina: Tuesday, you saw who nominated you and why — what was that like?
Amy Alexandra: It was ok, the people who I thought would have stuck by me, did. I was kinda shocked by a few of the comments. Tracey and Carole were very harsh. I felt they hadn’t got past the glamour model and didn’t see the girl who ran around in her pyjamas and didn’t do her hair.
Davina: Why didn’t you confront Carole?
Amy Alexandra: I hate arguments and I’d spoken to a couple of the guys and they said it would be a massive argument, and I didn’t go in there to argue. I didn’t want to make it awkward for everyone else, I just wanted a laugh so I just chilled. I thought ‘take it on the chin, be the bigger person, get over it.’
Davina: When you knew there was a possibility that you were going into the House, were you watching Big Brother 24/7?
Amy Alexandra: I didn’t watch it! I swear, because it makes things harder – ignorance is bliss. The only bit I’d seen was of Liam in that funny bondage thing and I didn’t know what that was about.
Davina: Did you fancy him then?
Amy Alexandra: No! All my mates were like ‘go for him’ and I thought ‘not my type at all’.
Davina: So no game plan?
Amy Alexandra: No, not at all. The twins grabbed me the minute I walked through the door and dragged me outside to Liam and Brian, and the four of us, we just never moved. I thought, ‘I’m comfy with these guys’. Despite my front, I’m not the most confident girl at all times and they were my ‘safe-zone’.
Davina: What do you think Liam’s feelings for you were?
Amy Alexandra: He was constantly hot and cold. I think it might have been different if he hadn’t had so much pressure put on him [from the other housemates]. It was just a bit of fun, nothing serious. I was trying to make my place in the rest of the group and I needed him to help me with that and he kinda made it worse. I hope we could be good mates. I never took it too seriously.
Davina: Do you think your relationship with Liam is why you’re sitting here now?
Amy Alexandra: It probably didn’t help, but I don’t mind. I’ve always thought everything happens for a reason.
Davina: Would you hook up with Liam on the outside?
Amy Alexandra: He’d have to work a little bit harder now!
Davina: What did you think of Gerry?
Amy Alexandra: Mixed feelings, but not in a negative way — nice guy, got loads to say, but sometimes he’s best not saying anything at all.
Davina: And Kara-Louise?
Amy Alexandra: So sweet, so genuine. In some ways she’s so sensitive but sometimes so strong.
Davina: Jonty?
Amy Alexandra: He’s weird, he’s eccentric, but you’ve got to love him – he’s there when you need him.
Davina: Carole?
Amy Alexandra: Although we didn’t discuss it, I think after I’d seen her nomination, she did chill out with me a bit – perhaps because I didn’t have a go at her about it.
Davina: Tracey?
Amy Alexandra: Wicked.
Davina: Brian?
Amy Alexandra: Hilarious, you gotta love him.
Davina: The twins?
Amy Alexandra: Wish they were my sisters.
Davina: Brian and Amanda?
Amy Alexandra: It won’t happen in there, sorry guys!
Davina: What have you learnt about yourself?
Amy Alexandra: Probably not to doubt myself and just to have fun with things. The twins have made me have more fun in ten days than I have had in the last two years. Defo! Cringe! Triple Cringe! Cheese!
Davina: And finally – who do you want to win?
Amy Alexandra: I’d love the twins to win. They’ve been themselves the whole time. They haven’t got a bad word to say about anyone – how many people are like that in this day and age? Good on ‘em!
I liked Amy, and as you say, a whole lot more interesting than Kara or Tracey for that matter.
I HATE HER HOW SHE WAS LIAM WITH BIGGEST MISTAKE PUTTIN HER IN THERE LIKE LIAM LIKED HER SHES RAW!!! GET A GRIP AMY U WAS ONLY IN THERE 10 DAYS AND UR SAYIN U WISH THE TWINS WHERE UR SISTERS I BET THEY DONT WISH THAT UR FAKE GIRL GET A LIFE STOP BEGGIN IT OF MEN SLAG????
Well, Beckii, you’re entitled to your opinion even if it’s wrong.
Sounds like an attack of the green-eyed monster Beckii !
“She did come across rather well in her interview with Davina. She was coherent and lucid throughout” says you
– she did, didn’t she? It was one of the most composed interviews I’ve seen in many a while, and quite unexpected. I predict Amy’s future in front of a camera has legs.
Yes its funny how the lottery of Big Brother favours the winners and loosers. Its ironic the most successful big bro contestant so far has turned out to be Jade, even despite her faux pas not so long ago. I wish i could say good luck to her, but i’m not a fan. I guess someone has to be a spokesperson for the vicki pollard generation…..
