ShaNaeNae June 30, 2014 Share June 30, 2014 I'm confused. She was an esthetician in Tennessee but is now a model in Hollywood? Besides rarely seeing her speak and seeing her be the object of Caleb's obsession, I wondered about her actual game play. Found this article, makes me wonder if she's ever been a fan of BB. She'd rather be liked and not win. I feel for anyone that grew up in rough surroundings and made it through ok. I'm also trying to figure out her ethnicity. Big Brother Wiki has her as an African-American houseguest. Has she mentioned it to anyone in the house? Her hair is gorgeous. Link to comment
PhilMarlowe2 June 30, 2014 Share June 30, 2014 Amber was definitely living in LA at the time of the show - I recognized the rock climbing facility as one I frequent in Santa Monica. I figured BB was doing the usual "we're going to pretend that we didn't just scout LA bars for aspiring models by having them state their hometown as their current location" tomfoolery. 1 Link to comment

I'm thinking "gorgeous multiracial girl" is a typical Grodneresque plan--in this case to try and head off racism at the pass. Make people hold their tongues, because the pretty girl might not speak to you (it even kind of works with other girls). Of course in typical BB fashion, it will completely ignore the larger and more long running problem the show always has--misogyny. 1 Link to comment
methodwriter85 July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 There's something hilarious about the fact that racist Caleb is apparently bunny-boiler obsessed with the bi-racial girl. Even more funny that apparently she's strictly for chocolate. My god, though. It's crazy to watch. Link to comment

Even more funny that apparently she's strictly for chocolate. My god, though. It's crazy to watch. Does he even KNOW she's biracial, or has he perhaps convinced himself it's "just a good tan"? Not that the racists always care. The plantation owner thing has already been mentioned. Link to comment
ShaNaeNae July 1, 2014 Author Share July 1, 2014 There's something hilarious about the fact that racist Caleb is apparently bunny-boiler obsessed with the bi-racial girl. This is part of the reason I was wondering. I assumed she was, which is no big deal one way or another. But I wondered if Caleb knows. She's beautiful. Even more funny that apparently she's strictly for chocolate. Oh slam! Did she say that? Caleb is thinking right now how to change his race to become more eligible. Link to comment
methodwriter85 July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 (edited) No, apparently Devin told Caleb that, in his numerous and failed attempts to try and get him to cool it. There's this part of me that wishes I could've seen Amber in the previous house, and see how she would've dealt with Aaryn Gries the Racist Bitch. I get the feeling she would have remained chilled and relaxed. (Not a ding against Candace, because really, it'd be hard not to break down against that crap they put her through.) If anything I think Aaryn would have been miffed at the prettiest girl in the house being a [insert any slur for bi-racial people here.] Edited July 1, 2014 by methodwriter85 Link to comment
TexasChic July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 If anything I think Aaryn would have been miffed at the prettiest girl in the house being a [insert any slur for bi-racial people here. I think that IS why she had such a problem with Candace - the girl was gorgeous. 2 Link to comment
ShaNaeNae July 2, 2014 Author Share July 2, 2014 Something tells me she wouldn't have picked on Amber as much, considering she can almost pass for caucasian. 1 Link to comment
methodwriter85 July 2, 2014 Share July 2, 2014 (edited) I don't know. Aaryn strikes me as "one drop" type. She'd probably be the only person under 40 to refer to bi-racial people as mulatto. In any event, Amber's plight makes me, as a gay man, just feel angry all over again for the type of crap women seem to have to deal with all the time- that if some guy decides he's in love with you, you're not allowed to flat out reject him, because that'd make you a bitch. It's not like she can distance herself from Caleb, either. Edited July 2, 2014 by methodwriter85 4 Link to comment
methodwriter85 July 3, 2014 Share July 3, 2014 I really have to give Amber props. She is handling the situation as well as she possibly can. Link to comment
Nashville July 3, 2014 Share July 3, 2014 (edited) Yeah, but Caleb and Devin - more Devin than Caleb, even - are succeeding at getting in her head, and that royally ticks me off. My personal impression is that Devin sees this as a golden opportunity to destabilize the games of two other players at one shot, and he's hell-bent on exploiting the situation to the fullest. And I hate that it's working. Edited July 3, 2014 by Nashville Link to comment
dolphincorn July 25, 2014 Share July 25, 2014 She's a Capricorn, like me, which explains why she's the best-looking person in the house. Link to comment
Petunia13 July 25, 2014 Share July 25, 2014 (edited) I don't think she's that good looking. Very Usher like nose. Maybe compared to some of the bowsers in this season, Is that what you mean? Candace, Janelle, Brittney (yup), and Dani Donato (again yup) blow her away. Edited July 25, 2014 by Petunia13 Link to comment
Dewey Decimate July 25, 2014 Share July 25, 2014 I actually think there's something very similar to Amber's and Janelle's looks. Tall, fit, long hair, broad nose, striking eyes and full lips. Amber is like the tanned version of Barbie Janelle. Link to comment
le bordel chaud July 25, 2014 Share July 25, 2014 (edited) I think Amber is very striking in a modelesque way. She also has a way of looking completely different day to day, scene to scene. Sometimes she looks absolutely stunning. Other times, not so much. I do think she is a real sweetheart and one of my favorite houseguests this season, along with Zach and Jacosta.

Candace, Janelle, Brittney (yup), and Dani Donato (again yup) blow her away. I was just mentioning this to someone else. And I didn't mean it in a bitchy way, just in a way where I think that she has all the ingredients that make people think "gorgeous" - she is light skinned, has green eyes, is skinny and has long hair. But I think there is something off in her face. So I'm glad its not just me. I also though Candace was just gorgeous, which I thought was a lot of the reason Aaryn couldn't stand her. Most of Aaryn's crew was markedly less attractive than her. 1 Link to comment
choclatechip45 July 26, 2014 Share July 26, 2014 I think if Amber stays around long enough to the endurance HOH she could go on a competition streak. Link to comment
