Too close to call?

12:56 pm

Friday’s finale is set to be the closest finish in Big Brother history ever.

Bookmakers have said it is too close a race to predict which of the five remaining housemates – including Rachel, Rex, Sara, Mikey and Darnell – will take home the GBP100,000 prize.

The five contestants split a record 93.3 per cent of the public vote in Tuesday’s double eviction twist, which saw Mo and Kat thrown out after scoring just 1.8 and 4.9 per cent respectively.

Currently tipped for the winner’s crown is blind housemate Mikey, who is the odds-on favourite at 4/5, with Rachel at 3/1 and Sara running close behind at 4/1.

However, Mikey has scored just 16 percent in newspaper The Sun’s own poll, with Aussie Sara holding on to 26 per cent, making her neck and neck with Rachel and Rex, at 25 and 22 per cent each.

Darnell trails last with 11 per cent of votes.

Nick Weinberg of bookies Ladbrokes says: ‘This has definitely been the closest series of all time.

‘It’s been really unusual because with three or four weeks to go there is usually a clear favourite, but this year it’s been anyone’s race. Only now is Mikey beginning to pull away, but it’s still too tough to call.’

  1. as far as i am concerned there are only two people who deserve to win rachel & mickey the rest are camera huggers & bullies, good on rachel’s mum for pulling lisa up for lying i wish lisa would give her own daughter as much attention as she did spreading lies & her & mario grabbing all the attention in the papers. Rachel 1st mickey 2nd i dont really care after that

  2. I am really looking forward to watching the final on Friday. The voting is not clear cut except that Darnell doesn’t seem to getting much support, so it could be any of the remaining four depending of the phone votes on Friday. Normally there is one racing ahead but not this time. At one time Rachel was coming out clear, but not anymore. Sara, Mikey and Rex are all staring to climb in the percentage stakes. This is going to be one unpredictable final. At least they don’t have to argue about food, cigarettes and booze now that greedy Mo has gone, so things might not get so fraught now, except for Darnell, who is totally paranoid and I think he confuses himself as well as me half the time!! GOOD LUCK TO THEM ALL, MAY THEY ALL GET WHAT THEY DESERVE!!!!!

  3. I realy hope that it’s the two girls that is left sitting on the sofa’s. If i had to choose it would be Sara, but they both deserve to win, for putting up with the bullying. Besides, i think it’s time for a female to win.

  4. Darnell really can’t win this. I was shocked at the way he reacted when Sara said she wanted Mickey to win. He got so up tight about it, and still can’t believe he went and talked to mickey about it. Actually looked back at som of the footage, yes Rex is horrid to Rachel, but I yhink he is more of a wind up merchant, he jumps on anything to get a rise out of someone. I think, although Rachel may not have been the most interesting viewing, she is genuinely sweet and i would be pleased to have someone like her to teach my kids.She was putting her makeup on because they all had to dress as sara straight after the eviction

  5. i have just watched BB live show BB have hidden objects that the HM must find they found ciggies in the bathroom which they found, then they had to find a car hidden in the kitchen they found it hidden in the take away boxes sara found it and gave it to mikey rex immediatly snatched of mikey and said it was his, what is this idiots problem,does he think every think in the house belongs to him does he secretly own the house and that is why he is there calling all the shots is there no end to this blokes rudness he is nothing but a moron.

    Comment by ninafairy — September 4, 2008 @ 2:58 pm

  6. Sara or Rex to win although i do like Rachel. I cannot stand Michael, his voice is so monotone & he always looks like he’s about to xplode in the Diary room when he is talking about the housemates, & the way he eats makes me feel sick!!!
    I was so shocked to see the results of the suprise eviction on Tuesday tho. Although its not been the best BB by far, i am going to miss it next week!

    Comment by Bev — September 4, 2008 @ 3:11 pm

  7. go rachel go everyone i know is voting for you i think everyone else is wasting their votes only the good left standing so goodbye to the rubbish

    Comment by pat — September 4, 2008 @ 3:35 pm

  8. I think Darnell is believing the hype that Rex is feeding him and he thinks he will win, thats why he didnt like Sara saying she wanted Mikey to win. I think the one person who has been consistent and true has been Rachel, she hasnt switched from group to group for popularitys sake and shes stood up to bullying Rex, so i think that she derserves to win just for that alone!

    Comment by Donna — September 4, 2008 @ 3:50 pm

  9. Definately Rachel to win as she is the only genuine one in there now, she’s taken so much and dealt with it admirably. Good Luck Rachel.

    Comment by bea — September 4, 2008 @ 3:58 pm

  10. mikey to win! :D :D he has never changed since day one!

    Comment by the mistress — September 4, 2008 @ 4:02 pm

  11. HOW IS IT THAT MIKEY CAN NOT HIT HIS MOUTH WHEN EATING .HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN OUT WEEKS AGO DARNELL IS ALL ABOUT ME ME ME STUPID MAN WHAT HE IS .RACHEL (omg)I CANT STAND HER SHE TALKS LIKE A SIX YEAR OLD ,AND TO SAY SHE”S MOST LIKE BELLE IS AN INSULT TO BELLE.REX NEEDS A PUNCH IN THE THE FACE HE IS JUST A DICK AND SARA WHAT IS IT WITH HER TOP LIP WHEN SHE TALKS .
    TO SUM IT ALL UP NONE OF THEM SHOULD WIN THEY SHOULD BE LEFT TO ROT IN THE BB HOUSE WITH NO CAMERAS WATCHING THEM

    Comment by joanne — September 4, 2008 @ 4:16 pm

  12. I dont want sara to win I think it is very cruel of her the way she is treating Darnell. She knows how much he fancies her and that he has a very low self opinion, but she still carries on flirting to entertain herself. I also dont want Mikey to win. He has made blind people out to be dirty incompetent idiots, having a blind friend I know how much they can do for themselves and that they are able to eat and keep themselves clean just like any sighted person. Other than that dont mind who wins.

    Comment by jane — September 4, 2008 @ 4:29 pm

  13. Rachel is boring!! She should definately finish fifth! REX TO WIN! He’s not a bully that’s just his sense of humour. He has been the most entertaining housemate by far with nicloe, his funny one linbers and apparent ‘bullying’ Besides, would’nt it be great if the baddie actually won for once? and not just the sterotypical sympathy or ‘nice guy’ vote~? Please its so boring! Rex first, Sara second, Mikey Third!

    Comment by Hollie — September 4, 2008 @ 4:36 pm

  14. mikey not to win, he hasn’t added anything to the house, he eats sleeps and tries to have a conversation with others but ends up arguing with rex…BORING!!! He says he’s waky, but i’ve seen more entertainment from an ant!! He hasn’t done anything to deserve the prize money whereas at leats sara has made entertainment and completed most taks well, and hasn’t given up!!

    Comment by Rob — September 4, 2008 @ 4:55 pm

  15. Rachel to WIN COME ON VOTE 09016161612

    Comment by kevin — September 4, 2008 @ 5:03 pm

  16. Well for me there i one clear winner MIKEY!!!
    He has been genuin not lied,not had silly arguments about CIDER and has told Rex where to go.Also he has not let his disability stop him from doing so well.So obviousley Mikey to win 100%. GO MIKEY !!!!!!!!!

    Comment by Xx.Kc.xX — September 4, 2008 @ 5:53 pm

  17. Rex to win he’s by far the most entertaining!

    Comment by Rachel — September 4, 2008 @ 6:41 pm

  18. Rex verbally attacking people and trying to make them feel crap is just his sense of humour? My God what sort of country are we living in when his boorish, thoughtless, cruel behaviour is looked on as humour? What sort of life are we bringing our children into if he is looked on as some sort of celebrity?! Don’t forget there are a lot of children watching BB. I saw him this afternoon snatch the toy car from Mikey’s hand and then insist it was his, just like a child. Not funny!

    Comment by jane — September 4, 2008 @ 7:03 pm

  19. how the hell can u feel sorry for darnell when he is a dirty bully like rex?? his treatment of that girl was horrendous all because she wouldnt give him some! the stupid fool should have been evicted for that! sara done nothing wrong just cos she talked to the guy and had a carry on did not justify the way she was spoken to!

    Comment by the mistress — September 4, 2008 @ 7:10 pm

  20. this continue to be pish
    for god’s sake give it a rest and never bring it back

    Comment by tog7 — September 4, 2008 @ 7:24 pm

  21. So Rex thinks he needs help with his jealousy!! He needs help with bullying, self obsession, control freakery, etc. etc…..

    He was desperate to be No. 1 – even with a game of hunt the thimble. Sara found the toy car and immediately gave it to Mikey, as a gift. Rex snatched it away from him saying “I’ll have that”. He then said over and over again – “I’ve got a car”, playing with a little toy.

    He is just a playground bully, a he’s atypical rich kid who thinks he has the right to help himself to anything he wants, regardless of whom he takes it from.

    His rich family must be wearing their dial fingers out voting for him to win. I really hope he is the first one out tomorrow, or if not let him be the last-but-one standing. He really deserves to have the smug smile wiped off his face.

    Don’t let manipulative flirt Sara win either, Darnell does’nt deserve the let down he will receive as soon as she sees Stuart/Dale or anyone else with a packet of cigaretes.

    Comment by Annie — September 4, 2008 @ 7:26 pm

  22. i think either mikey or sara should win and rachel is soooooooo anoin

    Comment by carla — September 4, 2008 @ 7:27 pm

  23. No contest. Mikey has been the best housemate by far and as mentioned in #16 the only one to challenge big head Rex. Mikey is a cool dude that has won my respect by being consistent. Good luck to him.

    Comment by John — September 4, 2008 @ 7:31 pm

  24. i think sarah should WIN she has taken more stick than anyone else in the house

    Comment by jojo — September 4, 2008 @ 7:33 pm

  25. VOTE RACHEL TO WIN,SHE IS VERY GENUINE PERSON NOT LIKE CONEHEAD,HE IS ACTING REALLY NICE SO THAT THE PUBLIC WILL LIKE HIM(NOT)I WOULD NOT ENTERTAIN HIS KIND OF PERSONITALY.WHAT A PRAT.VOTE FOR RACHEL.

    Comment by maureen — September 4, 2008 @ 7:35 pm

  26. sara to win more entertainig than any of others darnell so bigheaded

    Comment by tia — September 4, 2008 @ 7:40 pm

  27. whats the betting that ginger walnut whip head wins. bb have probably been treated to dinners in walnut whips mummy and daddys restaurant. if he does win it will prove the voting is rigged as no woman let alone man in this world will vote for him after the way he has treated other housemates.mikey or rachel to win

    Comment by mark — September 4, 2008 @ 7:42 pm

  28. got rid of most entertaining to early the house lots its fun weeks ago so sara to win best of rest

    Comment by karen — September 4, 2008 @ 7:43 pm

  29. Who’s been the most entertaining? Certainly not Mickey who’s spent most of the series earwiging others conversations. What’s Rachel brought to BB ‘no comment’ probably sums up her input, yeah both ‘ nice’ people but boring as **** to watch. Sarah is close behind on the yawn factor. Darnell needs therapy not money, so that leaves Rex, entertaining to watch love or hate him, he scores points….money, give it to charity then but not the others pleeeeeze.

    Comment by Ed — September 4, 2008 @ 7:45 pm

  30. Rachel is the most boring person in the world,because she is so boring makes all the housemate miserabled.She is like a dull winter day.I do hope she is not the winner.

    Comment by wanda — September 4, 2008 @ 7:58 pm

  31. Rachel to win after that I dont really care ive liked her all the way through, ok shes annoying at times but shes such a genuine person she deserves to win just to piss off rex

    Comment by Fairycake — September 4, 2008 @ 8:07 pm

  32. Rachel to win. WHY? she has constantly helped house mates – prime example when she was Head Of House she gave up her letter to let the housemates obtain a benefit. She was not to know a video would then be shown of her family. Good on her. Stick the rest in a galley somewhere with REX banging the drum beat…. and Mickey on the Tiller. (Nah have REX Banged up for an extra month and persecuted by 6 year old kids who are the worlds fusiest eaters….)

    Comment by G8 — September 4, 2008 @ 8:12 pm

  33. I don’t really mind who wins as long as it isn’t Rex or Darnell. My favourite is Mikey as I feel he is sensitive to others, but will also say it how it is. He isn’t my favourite because I feel sympathy for him, I generally feel he’s a genuine person.

    Comment by yvonne — September 4, 2008 @ 8:30 pm

  34. Hollie (13) Good comment.

    Comment by Amy S — September 4, 2008 @ 8:41 pm

  35. sara to win i hope that Rex doesn,t win i can,t belive he is still there let alone the final

    Comment by kelli — September 4, 2008 @ 8:42 pm

  36. The only person that deserves to win is REX! Wheather you love him or hate him, you can’t deny that he has been the most entertaining housemate this year. Rachel is sooooo fake, Mikey CANNOT win – please please don’t vote for that man!!! Darnell is a lovely guy, but does not deserve to win, and Sara has already won £25,000. Like I said, REX is the only one that deserves to win!

    Comment by RexTooWin! — September 4, 2008 @ 8:44 pm

  37. Sounds like Rexy has delusions that he is King Kong of the Big Bruv House, snatching a toy TUT! TUT!
    This happens if one person is allowed by others sharing the house to take total control.

    Actually BB should have put another Real Alpha male in long ago, then it would have been oh so different.
    Instead BB wasted viewing time by putting in three females then Nicole. (not entertaining)

    So where do we go from here? LESS than 24 hours to eviction time & I’m not inspired to vote. :)

    Comment by fran — September 4, 2008 @ 9:09 pm

  38. Mickey has been the worst housemate in there – joining in any backstabbing going Sara is a nasty little tease who moved from man to man thinking that’s what the public wanted to see. She never stops looking at the cameras. Rachel is very very very nice to the point of being sickly childish. Darnell is too busy feeling sorry for himself and wanting everyone else to feel sorry for him. He needs to get over himself. REX – he is full of himself, but he is straight talking which most people hate and that makes him rude and obnoxious. For the most part I found him quite funny, cos he said the things I and much of the public were thinking. Out of all the remaining housemates he has provided the most entertainment, whether or not it was rude or ‘bullying’. THEREFORE REX TO WIN!

    Comment by ajnosl — September 4, 2008 @ 9:48 pm

  39. Definately not Rachel, my god is she really as stupid as she makes out?plus she has a rich fella. Darnell is rude and always putting himself down to get praise from everyone, Mikey, just because he’s blind doesnt mean he doesn’t have to have manners, he makes me feel sick when he eats, so its between Rex and Sara, I do like them both and I dont think she is leading Darnell on, she has told him “just mates” so his problem if he cant accept it though the others should stop geeing him up. Rex has been rude and cruel at times then denies it, plus he obviously has money so it will have to go to Sarah.
    SARA to WIN

  41. this is a useless blog as it is so censored particularly if you criticise the show.

    Comment by tog7 — September 4, 2008 @ 10:58 pm

  42. I agree with Jaane (18) – if we are going to reward people for being a bully/control freak then no wonder this country is in the state its in. If you find that sort of behaviour entertaining than I pity you.
    Mikey or Rachel to win!! I’d love to see them sitting on the sofa together having reached the finale two.

    Comment by Nobby — September 4, 2008 @ 11:05 pm

  43. if mickey wins, its a sympathy vote. no other explanation. you cannot say that hes been in entertaining in any way what so ever. sara to win

    Comment by john smith — September 4, 2008 @ 11:33 pm

  44. if mickey wins, its a sympathy vote. no other explanation. sara to win

    Comment by john smith — September 4, 2008 @ 11:34 pm

  45. Will somebody tell Rachel that this was a competition and that she was meant to entertain us not bore us to death. Mikey will no doubt be having rant soon.Sarah will be squealing as usual but she is alive at least. Darnel will be Effing and blinding over nothing [carbolic mouthwash comes to mind] Then we have Rex the real winner who has never failed to entertain us with his arrogance and wit. The only member of the team who had them all sized up in 10 seconds flat and played them all like finely tuned fiddles. Well done my friend we needed you in there to provide our entertainment and for that I thank you.

    Comment by Corina — September 5, 2008 @ 12:22 am

  46. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, I BEG ALL OF YOU WHO READ THIS BLOG, DO NOT…DO NOT…DO NOT… VOTE FOR REX TO WIN!!!!! MY REASONS ARE STATED BELOW…..

    Surely, no-one can accept Rex’s behaviour towards most of the housemates in there???

    He is one of the most arrogant, jealous, selfish, big headed, boastful, smart arses, I have ever had to witness…unfortunately!!!

    He just doesn’t deserve to be voted the winner as that would mean we accept the way he treats people,….the way he talks to people is absolutely disgraceful….and I’m sorry but I do not accept the way he acts,….I wouldn’t accept it from anyone, let alone Rex!!!

    Surely, the most deserved housemate of BB9 is the ever happy, Rachel….who has had to put up with most of the flack from the ‘Ginger Git’….or even the ever realist, Mikey,…. who has repeatedly stuck up for the down trodden housemates, who have been the target of the fore-mentioned ‘Walnut Whipped One’… I honestly don’t mind which…BUT most definately NOT Rex!!!

    So, please bloggers, do the right thing and let your fingers do the talking….let the good, respectful people win for once and vote for Rachel or Mikey to win….you know it makes sense!!!!

  47. Sorry, I forgot to mention that Rex is the

    Comment by Vixx — September 5, 2008 @ 12:25 am

  48. Sorry, I forgot to mention….

    …that Rex is also the BIGGEST BULLY in there…and that’s another reason why we cannot let Rex win….we cannot let BULLIES win…. they are the weakest of the weak, picking on people is just NOT ON……

    Rachel or Mikey to win!!!!!

    Comment by Vixx — September 5, 2008 @ 12:28 am

  49. Also, I forgot to mention….god I don’t know where my head is at the moment….in the shed, I think!!!….anyway…

    If Rex does win, it just goes to prove that BB is fixed, it must be, coz no-one in their right mind would want that ‘Obnoxious Git’ to win an argument, let alone one hundred grand….and if he does win, then I can tell you this BB, you will lose a whole load of BB fans, coz it ain’t real…..KEEP IT REAL BB, KEEP IT REAL!!!!!

    Comment by Vixx — September 5, 2008 @ 12:35 am

  50. comment 38 you are a fool!!! how can u say that mikey is worse than the other housemates?? what a lot of shit!

    Comment by the mistress — September 5, 2008 @ 8:57 am

  51. I’m no Rex fan, but please people get a grip! What constitutes bullying in some peoples eyes is ludicrous. Ok the guys sense of humour is a little sharp but bullying, do me a favour.

    Comment by caballo — September 5, 2008 @ 9:03 am

  52. You got it in one; Ed (29)
    How many people watched BB every day to see what Rachel was up to? (not a lot)

    If King Kong Rex could read these comments he would love the fact he has caused a BIG stir.
    Personally if Rex wins I will find it a good laff, for all the Rachel fans.
    He reminds me of a boy going through puberty. (honest folks) :)

    My vote is going to Mikey; he really wants to win.
    Has not been fake, used or abused other.
    Has a sense of humor, got stuck into the tasks, & spoke up. (lots of truth)
    Didn’t sit on the fence playing safe, waiting to win. The money might help him to further his career as a DJ. :)

    Comment by fran — September 5, 2008 @ 10:25 am

  53. At times, well quite a few to be honest, I haven’t agreed with a lot of posts on here. Too much use of the word ‘bullying’ and also the name calling. ( NO real call for it I think.)
    All I can say is vote for who you want to win, whoever they maybe. Good Luck to them all!!!

    REX TO WIN.

    Comment by Seams — September 5, 2008 @ 10:26 am

  54. do not vote for bullying rex,he is a pain and so is darnell,vote for rachel all the way,she is lovely,too good for that lot of peasants.if i was rex,s dad i would be ashamed of him,he is a disgrace and why do he and darnell think they should win,shame on them both.come on rachel.

    Comment by sheila gardner — September 5, 2008 @ 11:27 am

  55. I wonder if the people on here have ever been taunted and humiliated like Rachel was by Rex while everyone stands around watching? When he really hated her it was the worst thing to watch and I bet there are quite a few kids who have watched BB this year that can relate to what she has gone through – so can you imagine what it must feel like for them to read that some people think it is just harmless leg pulling? Well, maybe it is to some kinds of people but to the decent, honest, hardworking people struggling to bring their kids up in today’s society I think you’ll find that being unkind and cruel is still thought of as ‘bullying’. He has money, status and a good education why does he feel the need to ‘attack’ people?

    Comment by j — September 5, 2008 @ 11:31 am

  56. Rachel is NOT boring, she is a rose amongst the thorns. The way she has stayed so dignified in the face of Rex’s rantings and not sunk to his level has really touched me. Not many of us would have her strength of character and that is why I think if nothing else she will be a good example to kids who are bullied and who watch BB. It’s her belief in herself that has kept her going through it all and that is why she must win!!

    Comment by jay — September 5, 2008 @ 11:40 am

  57. I want Rachel or Mikey to win, just because it makes a pleasant change, It seams all the loud ones get the limelight, Do we really want foul mouth, over the top people , getting naked at every opportunity on tv, you can see that any weekend when the clubs close, So i`m voting for nice decent people to win. GOOD LUCK.

    Comment by June — September 5, 2008 @ 11:46 am

  58. Vixx I agree I can’t stand the creep and I also can’t believe the public who were in hate Rex mode a few days ago now their saying Rex to win what is wrong with you all. The man is a pain in the jacksy and needs a lesson in manners the only reason he’s behaving himself now is to Win and people seem to be buying it I can’t think of anything worse if he wins. Darnell is a good guy really he’s just insecure and fearful of the outside world don’t let him down Darnell to win it will change his life and I think he needs that more than any of them. Rachel is good but she has her feet on the ground and she is secure within herself, Mikey is Mikey and I think a realist so he will be happy just getting to the final. Sarah gets on my nerves another insecure half-wit who should of gone ages ago plus she has £25k which is a nice bonus and as far as taking more stick then anyone else definately not that would have to be Rachel from Rex. Oh god Rex has to come LAST it may take him down a peg or two although he is tipped to be the biggest earner when he comes out, Ughhhhhhhh shame as he’s bullish and big headed enough now lets hope he drops that blonde bimbo though she’s another wannabe idiot. So DARNELL TO WIN RACHEL 2ND MIKEY 3RD SARAH 4TH AND GINGER DRIP LAST LAST LAST PLEASE.

  59. j (54) well said, have first hand experience.

    My vote wont go to some one just cause I feel sorry for them, or bored me.

    All the more reason to vote for Mikey, he would HATE a sympathy vote. :)

  60. Mikey to win Why?

    Mikey very funny diary room comments (CLASSIC)
    If conehead wins its a (FIX)

    Comment by Kerry — September 5, 2008 @ 2:46 pm

  65. This blog has been such fun, have seen many names on the blog from weeks back when BB started.
    Often wonder what you all look like?
    Probably just like Mikey would, (names but no faces)
    Mikey took the group photo to keep, as he said “if I ever get my sight back I will be able to see what you all looked like.”

    Made me stop & think.

    Hope you all enjoy the final, should be exciting who ever wins x. :)

    Comment by karashell — September 5, 2008 @ 5:01 pm

  69. Why does every1 like mikey?
    i bet if he wasn’t blind he would be out in the 1st few weeks.all the guy does is moan n groan he has a bad personality and when he eats it makes me feel sick-seriously if he wins it must be a fix!
    Rachel shudnt win either she is the most boring house mate ever! Ppl only like her coz shes sweet and kind but she provides no entertainment!

    Sara,Rex or Darnell to win!! :(

  70. Rex is a bully and a control freak, just like a perpitrator of Domestic Violence. I’ve seen enough to work out how he will treat women for the rest of his life, he doesn’t deserve to win anything. Rachel may be boring, but at least she is being herself, you don’t have to like her but you know she is real. Mikey has not been inspiring, Darnell isn’t deserving of winning either. It’s a pity Sara came in late, I think she is about as good as it gets as a winner, unfortunately, all the more interesting characters left early. Still, Sara is the one I’m hoping will win.

  71. 69, you try eating blind, it ain’t easy.
    As for John Smith? Mikey is not entertaining according to you which is fair comment as everyone cannot have the same sense of humour.
    You then go on to say sara to win? Was that because she is so entertaining or just the fact under the influence of drink she would cuddle anyone? I say cuddle because i do not use bad language when i write only when i speak :-) .

  72. Fran, keep the faith, Mikeys 4/6 on with the bookies(when are they wrong) which could mean the Rex,Rachel & Sara fan clubs are wasting thier money….
    Love to see Rex’s family phone bill at the end of the month.

  73. I only wish the british public do justic to big brother and vote REX to win because he is the one who keep the show going. Those who do not know the meaning of entertainement are the only ones who call him a bad person, How can people start to praise how good Lisa, Mario and Mike were while they were the ones who used to say how much they hated their fellow housemates.Rexhas never use the word hate.

  74. I am sorry to hear you Norah 73 say that Rex has not said the hate because he has done to Rachel he is just a bully he is full of b*******,and for his friend saying he is nice if you believe that you will believe anything.REX TO GO.
