TheOrator.Press ‘Comedy & Jest’ ~ A Judi Love Special ~ September 2020

For The Love’ of Social Media

It Has Been A Tumultuous Year Thus Far With Two Main Life Changing Events – The Corona Virus & The Police Murder of George Floyd. Tension Also Looms In The Air With The Pending Presidential Election In America & The Potential of A Second Wave of The Corona Virus Outbreak. This Has Been A Year Unlike Any Other. But Positivity Is Power & TheOrator.Press Is All About Positivity.

The World Is In Survival Mode Right Now. Humour Is A Recognized Survival Tool & Laughter Is Said To Be The Best Medicine.

Click On The Video Clip Below To See How A Rotten Roundabout Experience At Elephant & Castle, Worthy of The Krypton Factor, Turned Out To Be Super Fabulous In The End.

Love On Modern Tech,Truth & Transparency

In June 2020 After Pictures Went Viral of Black Lives Matter (BLM) Activist, Patrick Hutchinson, Picking Up, Carrying & Rescuing A Far Right Protester, At A Weekend BLM March, The Loose Women Panelist Was On The Show The Following Week. Patrick’s Heroics Featured In The News Worldwide. She Expressed How Important Social Media Is For Enabling The People To Circulate Images of Such Good Exemplary Behaviour, Particularly In The Case of Positive Black Men, As Mainstream Media Might Typically Otherwise Ignore It.

Historically This Is Exactly What Has Tended To Happen All Too Many Times. It Is One of The Reasons TheOrator.Press Was Launched In This Momentous Year. So It Recognizes & Respects How Important Judi’s Words Are, Which Is Why They Really Resonated With Us.

Some Media Coverage Is Now Changing In This Regard & ITV Has Been At The Forefront of That, For Which We Salute Them. The Recent Short Film Series Unsaid Stories Was Particularly Powerful (See Front Page, First Column, Second Half). The Swift Changes, Even In Advertising, Are Admirable & Amazing Too. At The Same Time They Show Just How Possible It Was All Along. Better Late Than Never.

Nothing & No One Is Perfect. Whilst Social Media Can Be Used For Great Good, & The Internet & GPS Were Developed As Military Communication Tools For Good & Just Endeavours, Unlike Traditional Media It Is Currently Unregulated & Therefore Is Easily & All Too often Used As A Tool For Bad & Evil. As The Law Struggles To Catch Up With Technology One of The Best Ideas So Far Is The Implementation of An ID Requirement In Order To Register A Social Media Account, Similar To The ID Required To Open A Bank Account. Bank Fraud & Impropriety Still Exists of Course, As The ID Requirement Does Not Totally Eradicate It, But Along With Other Regulation & Control It Does Provide Some Damage Limitation & Helps Prevent The Banking Arena Being Totally Lawless. It Would Be One Way To Prevent The Anonymity Which Facilitates Social Media Misdemeanors & Bad Endeavours.

Meantime Patrick Hutchinson, A Personal Trainer & Man of Faith, Has Since Appeared On A Number of Magazine Covers, Including Men’s Health & GQ Magazine, As Media Interest In Him Went off The Scale. He Has A Book Coming Out In The Autumn, Published By Harper Collins Detailing His Hopes To His Daughters That Racism Will Be Defeated By The Joint Effort of Caring & Conscientious Citizens. He Says “It’s Not About Black Versus White, But Everyone Versus Racism”.

Love On Diversity

A Dramatic Start To September Saw Love Use Her Own Social Media To Show Support For The Dance Group Diversity. On Britain’s Got Talent’s First Semi-Finals Show Over The Weekend of September 5 2020, They Performed A Dance Recital Reflecting The Tumultuous Events of 2020 Thus Far (Including George Floyd’s Murder By US Police Officers).

The Performance Subsequently Received Over 24,000 Complaints To TV Regulator Ofcom on The Basis That It Was Not An Appropriate Show For Such A Routine & Politicized The Show. An Ofcom spokeswoman said: “We Are Assessing This Content Against Our Broadcasting Rules, But Are Yet To Decide Whether or Not To Investigate.”

Many Other Stars Also Supported The Group (Who Actually Won The Show, Beating Susan Boyle, in 2009). These Include Piers Morgan on His Good Morning Britain Breakfast Show September 14 2020 & Alesha Dixon on Twitter. During The Fallout, After Dance Leader Ashely Banjo Revealed That He Had Received Racist Posts, Love Tweeted “Enough Is Enough. Let’s Rise.” Banjo Was Also Appearing As A Judge on The Show, Whilst Standing In For Simon Cowell Who Broke His Back Falling of A Quad Bike, In The Summer, At His Home In America.

Happily By Friday September 18 2020 The Regulator Confirmed It Would Not Be Investigating The Complaints In Regard To Diversity’s Dance Routine, Having Reviewed The Relevant Rules, As Nothing In The Performance Warranted Such Action.

Prior To This Titanic TV Tussle, Judi’s Fellow Loose Woman Coleen Nolan, Together With Fellow 2018 Celebrity Big Brother Housemate Kim Woodburn, Held The Second Spot For Most Officially Complained About TV Moment, Further A Make Up Moment On Loose Women Going Horribly Wrong August 29 2018. It Received 7,912 Complaints. In Effect They Hugely Fell Out Twice. Once on Celebrity Big Brother & Then Again on Loose Women. They Never Made Up Each Time. You Can’t Win Them All. Although Coleen Did Win Big Brother Celebrity All Stars 2019. That Must Have Made Up For Quite A Bit From Her Point of View! That Episode Now Slips To Third Place As Diversity Take The Number Two Spot. Then Number One Spot Remains With Former Emmerdale Actress Roxanne Pallet For Wrongly Accusing Fellow Emmerdale Actor Ryan Thomas of Physically Assaulting Her During A Playfight Which Became Known As “Punchgate”. Aired on August 30 2018 It Received 25, 327 Complaints To Ofcom. Roxanne Was Eliminated From The Show & Ryan Went On To Win It. Roxanne, Who Was Tearfully Apologetic After The Disturbing Incident, Finally Had A Happy Ending This Year As She Married The Fireman Hunk She Met In America After Stepping Out of The Limelight For Sometime After The Show In 2018. They Married In February This Year. And Ryan & His Wife Had A New Baby In March This Year Too. New Beginnings All Round. Knockout!

Love Is Hot Stuff on Celebrity Masterchef

In July 2020 Judi Was One of 20 Contestants On BBC’s Celebrity MasterChef. She Made The Semi-Finals, Where Ultimately 6 Became 3.

Throughout The Cooking Competition Judi Celebrated Her Jamaican Roots & Presented Tasty Classic Dishes With A Caribbean Twist, Including Fish & Chips With Fried Tilapia Fish In A Spicey Batter With Spicey At The Coleslaw & A Little Plantain. Curry Chicken & Brown Stew Chicken. She Did Herself & Jamaica Proud. In The End Though, In The Semi-Final Round, Alas Greg Could Not Take The Heat Despite Loving It In The First Round. He Found The Curry Goat Too Hot & Said There Was No Escaping The Heat As The Coleslaw Was Spicey Hot Too. Caribbeans Love Spicey Food So Hot & Spicey Was To Be Expected. It Actually Sounded Delicious. With Her Culinary Heat Being Too Hot For Some, Together With Her Cannolis Pastry Not Coming Out Cooked Enough & Failing The Cooking Challenge Set By Celebrity Chef Aldo Zilli, She Missed Out On The Finals; As Did EastEnders Actor Phil Daniels & Travel Presenter Amir Latif.

In The End The Final Three Were YouTube Presenter & Social Media Influencer Riyadh Khalaf, Gold Medal Olympic Rowing Sir Champion Matthew Pinset, & Gold Medal Olympic Hockey Champion Sam Quek. Riyadh Proved That In The Kitchen He Ruled The Roost As He Became Masterchef Champion. He Prepared A Dish He Dedicated To His Father Who Had Worked Hard To Overcome His Initial Upset After His Son Came Out As Gay. It Was Very Moving To Put It Mildly.

Judge Greg Wallace Said Riyadh Had Been Flamboyant, Shown Creative Flair & Been Passionate. Fellow Judge John Torode Said His Dishes Were of Restaurant Quality. Clearly A Winning Combination.

Love On Love Scenes

In August 2020, Following Her Masterchef Success Judi Got Very Saucy & Shared A Whole Lot of Sauce With Her Loose Woman Colleagues. Inspired By The News That Some Productions Will Be Filming Love Scenes With Actors & Actresses Performing Such Scenes With Their Real Life Partners, As A Practical Solution To Social Distancing Rules, The Ladies Were Talking About Their Favourite Love Scenes. An Engaging Feature of The Loose Women Is The Different Personalities of The Ladies On The Panel.

At One End of The Scale Kaye Adams Opted For The True Classic, Tame, Teenage Gregory’s Girl. She Chose The Scene Where The Love Birds Are Lying On Their Backs Looking Up At The Stars, In This Coming of Age, Romantic Comedy, With Scottish Roots (Which of Course Kaye Shares). The 1982 Movie Was Ranked No.30 In The British Film Institute’s Best British Movies & One Place Higher, At No.29 In Entertainment Weekly’s Top 50 High School Movies. The 1985 Movie The Breakfast Club Was No.1. Surprisingly Grease Only Made It To No.21

Dee Hepburn Played The Romantic Female Lead In This Tale of Pioneering Girl Power In The World of Football & A Young Boy’s Unrequited Love. But She Soon Walked Away From Acting As She Was Not Happy Being Inundated With Offers of Acting Roles Involving Sex & Nudity. She Found The Idea of Raising A Family More Appealing. She Had Two marriages & Two Children.

At The Other End of The Scale Judi Also Choose A Coming of Age Movie, But It Is Far Less Tame. Written, Directed & Produced By John Singleton, It Is The Story of A Young Black Man, Who Lives With His Mother, Who Had Him When She Was Only 16. He Then Repeats The Cycle & Becomes An Unmarried Teenage Parent Himself. By The Time He Reaches 20 He Already Has Two Children. One With His Long Term Girlfriend of 5 Years & Another With The Women He Cheated On Her With. The Movie Looks At His Life In The Hood’ (Slang For Poor, Black, American, Urban Neighbourhood) & Whether He Can Turn Things Around.

Singleton Also Wrote Boyz ‘n The Hood, Another Iconic Movie, Ten Years Earlier. He Said Baby Boy Is Not A Sequel But Rather “A Companion Piece”. In I991 Following Boyz n’ In The Hood, At Just 24 Years Old, He Became Both The Youngest Person & The First African-American Person To Ever Be Nominated For A Best Director Oscar. He Directed Many Iconic Productions Including Micheal Jackson’s 9 Minute Remember The Time Video Starring Eddie Murphy, Iman & Magic Johnson, & Also Episodes of Empire (Which Also Stars Taraji). Sadly He Died Prematurely Last Year, April 2019, Having Had High Blood Pressure & Suffering A Stroke. He Was Only 51.

Amazingly Baby Boy Was The Debut & Breakthrough Movie For Both Taraji & Tyrese. Rather Like Brad Pitt After The Sex Scene In Thelma & Louise, It Was The Making of Them. Looks, Chemistry, Heat…A Lot of Heat…Make Up Sex’…Heat. Clearly A Winning Combination!
