Some may think this is a triumph for Grace to be the face of uncle Ben's new year chinese promotion but personally I don't. I think the story in the sun is a bit of a joke. I honesty don't know her but to my knowledge she made no attempt to apologise to any of her x-housemates for her behaviour on BB7(please correct me if I am wrong) Last I heard was that Susie had to get her solicitor to write to her to stop spreading lies about her and of course she was a total b***h at the wrap party. Is everyone friends now did I miss something. Some of you may say that was then, but imo before you make someone a role model you have to look at their crudentials. How is it that all of a sudden she's the spokes person and mentor for people who might be in BB8. She is no role model IMO. Good if she makes a lot of money good luck to her I don't begrudge her at all for that, and it may lead to better things. However it seems a minute opportunity coming off the back of winning a reality show imo. I guess it is part of her trying to convince people she's changed, but I am not convinced. I was born at night but I wasn't born last night. On cirque she knew she had to win the public's support, the cameras were not on her 24/7. I am not bitter just slightly humoured about her trying to be a role model for future BB contestants. I am not saying people can't change but it will take a lot to believe that she has. No offence to those on here who like Grace it is just my opinion.

O by the way has Grace made her peace with Ash and Susie. The last thing I heard was that she is only in contact with Glyn Lisa and Mikey of course. Hmm it's a funny old world

Ash doesn't want anything to do with her, Imogen doesn't judging by two recent interviews. I quote Imogen 'I don't need her in my life'. Susie doesn't. Infact Ash is in touch with more housemate than Grace is. Bad move by Uncle Bens, I mean why would you want someone that unpopular the face of you!!!

I disagree that she 'turned the situation around quite dramatically' as she says in that article. A minority of BB7 viewers will have watched CDC - I certainly didn't and I wouldn't have even known she was on it if it hadn't been discussed online. She'll still be remembered for her nastiness rather than her tightrope performances!

"Ironically, given the bad times she had in the house, Grace is currently the face of an Uncle Ben's Chinese New Year promotion, encouraging people to ‘turn sour relationships sweet’. "

ronically this is the girl who rather than 'turning sour relationships sweet' she is proud to have assaulted susie, and was gleeful about NOT apologising .

Ironic indeed.

What next ? Will Jade become the face of 'Peace and Friendship' ?

utterly bizarre .

Bizarre indeed given the recent CBB5 racism furore, the ethnicity of "Uncle Ben" himself and certain remarks made during BB7.

Look, Uncle Ben's got Grace cheap as a 'face of the brand' because let's face she's going to be cheaper than other models isn't she?

I mean most decent models are usually 9 or 10 out of 10's aren't they (if we are going to be shallow about it). Getting a 6 out of 10 is going to cut costs and let them invest more in the product

No this year is the Chinese Year of the Boar...

So it suits Grace perfectly....per se, that she IS a bore and secondly she has the manners of one....(Whistle).

  It's the year of the Pig. Maybe Uncle Ben was thinking of Grace's manners.

Reminds me of the old one....

I defended Grace the other day. Someone said she hadn't the manners of a pig.

And I said she did.
