Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

Just watched `Katie. My Beautiful Friends.` and I`m feeling very sad at the moment.:(
Just watched the second episode and realised how lucky i, and my family, are.:( She`s a Very Brave Girl after all she`s been through.
I`ll post some links in a while.

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

yes i have seen this, but people will do anything for money.. i am quite sure that if she never was attacked like she was.. would she give a flying ..... ? i dont think so, for that reason i won't be watching it anymore

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

You`ve got to be joking, right?:erm:

Why do you think she`s doing it for the money?
I don`t understand your way of thinking.
Sometimes, something happens in your life which may change the way you look at certain things. I had Cancer and beat it, that changed the way i saw different things.

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

Do you practice being stupid or does it come natural to you? Some idiot threw some acid over her and now she wants to help people who have suffered as she has and get their confidence back like she did.

I hope nothing bad ever happens to you

What planet are you on????:rolleyes:

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

do you people honestly believe that if she WASN'T attacked, she would care ? come on...

e.g. ben and brooke kinsella, did she care about knife crime until it happened to her brother ? come on people are so gullible.

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

Maybe it took something as tragic as this to make her care if, as you seem to suggest she was as heartless as you're making out.

And perhaps it will take something equally as tragic to make YOU care about the less-fortunate than you.

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

Very hard to watch, and we moan if we have a spot or a rash or something, all of them deserve awards on that show.

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

exactly, it took that to make her "care", perfect opportunity to cash in you do not know what happens behind closed doors, she might be laughing all the way too the bank ?

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

Nearly everyone who goes through something tragic wants to help in some way, that doesn't mean they want to cash in.

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

You're seriously deranged.

Maybe she was not exposed to people being disfigured in her every day life before the incident. I'm not exposed to them either, do you think that means I don't care? Many people become activists in a cause when it gets brought to their attention, such as seeking cures for cancer. Only the most bloody-minded cynics would view that as not caring.

The fact is she's drawing attention to an important issue. Who cares if she's being paid for it? From a quick google search I can see she was involved in awareness for such victims before the attacks, she wouldn't have been paid for that either.

Seriously, lighten up a little. Or a lot.

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

You seriously need to get some professional help before you go over the edge.

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

At the risk of getting an infraction i feel i must say ...you are an idiot ...you obviously haven't done any research before opening your gob .Do you think the people benefiting from this show or the shows she has done in the past ,the foundation she has set up care if she is making a bit of money ,i suspect quite a bit of which goes to supporting the victims/foundation .So what if she is using her celebrity to bring a serious social issue to the general public's attention ,at least she is doing something and not wallowing in self pity

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

Well said :clap::clap::clap:

Re: Katie. My Beautiful Friends.
 

You know, previously I just thought you were merely objectionable. Now I know you are sick.

You rightly say that you don't know what happens behind closed doors. However, most people I know would not cash in on something like this.

*If* Katie Piper had started presenting a TV show that was unrelated to her injuries, or *if* she had started releasing endorsed products (such as DVDs), then I'd agree, she's cashing in. If she went on to marry a multi millionaire because of the fame she has gained through her injury, I would also agree she is cashing in.

As far as I know, she has not. She has done nothing apart from the highlight the plight of a group of people who, through no fault of their own, have been disfigured and are, at best, ignored and, at worst, insulted or assaulted because of those disfigurements.

One other thing we wouldn't know. She may have been trying to highlight their plight before her attack, but we wouldn't have heard about it because she would have been just one more charity campaigner (a pretty one, admittedly) but the media would have been no more interested in her than they are the millions of other charity workers.
