Celebrity Big Brother .... It Begins Again !

[Nelly Gay]

After surviving The X Factor and Strictly Celebrity Ballroom Dancing (or whatever it's called) we now have this to look forward to ....
Marilyn anybody ?

what?

what?

Celebrity Big Brother commences again in the UK tonight. :wink:

According to rumor, The Hoff is gonna be the 'big' imported US star this year.

If previous series are anything to go by, the 'celebrity status' of at least three of the guests will be incredibly questionable.

Celebrity Big Brother commences again in the UK tonight. :wink:

According to rumor, The Hoff is gonna be the 'big' imported US star this year.

I wonder if he'll sing Jump In My Car while naked in the shower.

 

[D_alex8]

No Hoffsta after all. Instead, the joys of the following faces from yesteryear and assorted unknowns...

Cleo Rocos (Brazilian bombshell TV icon of the 1980s with a proper 'Gisella' accent) :biggrin1:

film director Ken Russell (The Devils)

curly-haired camp 70s singer Leo Sayer

Dirk Benedict (The A Team)

Jermaine Jackson (formerly of the Jackson Five)

Ian 'H' Watkins (formerly of Steps)

Shilpa Shetty (Bollywood starlet)

And the people I could never have hoped to pick out in an identity parade:

Jo (female singer, formerly of S Club 7)

Donny Tourette (punk/rock frontman of Towers of London)

Danielle Lloyd (Miss Englad 2004, if you please)

Carole (a journalist from the Sunday Mirror)

In terms of male totty, that gives us... nothing.

We can only hope for the appearance of some interesting 'special guests' along the way, otherwise Cleo Rocos has won already in my book, just for having a personality.

film director Ken Russell (The Devils)

I know Ken Russel needs the work and is broke but really !
He must be desperate ...
He doesn't even direct pop videos now and has a reputation for being difficult and running over budget .
I would rather do conventions ; the money is good and the obsessive fans treat you real good .

 

[Rubenesque]

Is anyone else watching?

Who do we like so far?

I'm ashamed to say I like 'H' so far, and Cleo (still sexy as hell) and Leo Sayer!!

And how disgustingly beautiful is Shilpa Shetty!!!!

 

[D_alex8]

I'm still of the opinion that Cleo should win, as I was when the name of the housemates were first announced.

*coughs politely to point out the existence of another thread about this*

Although 'H' at least shows some potential in the underwear department, I will confess --->

 

[Rubenesque]

I'm loving Leo, Cleo and H so far.... although don't actually tell anyone I like H!!!!!

 

[Rubenesque]

And how I am not looking forward to the Goodies (not Bill Oddie et al) going in tonight if the rumours are true!

 

[Rubenesque]

Oooooooooooops sorry, I hadn't realised we already had a thread on the go..... can this one be deleted?

 

[Lex]

I merged them into one thread.

 

[Rubenesque]

Hey.... now it looks like I asked for THIS thread to be deleted..... which I didn't, I asked for the thread I started to be deleted..... way to go on the bloody editing! lol

 

[Rubenesque]

Ugh.... so it's definitely going to be Jade and her family coming in. Well I suppose if her waster boyfriend is there with her she will at least know he's behaving himself.

And oh my god, what was Jermaine thinking when he named his son Jermajesty! lol

 

[Rubenesque]

Blimey - seems the idea of being Jade's servant was just too much for Donny and he's gone over the wall..... vile creature, but fun to watch, it's a shame he's gone. I wonder if they'll bring in someone else, has a celebrity ever quit before? I can't remember!

I'd like to see him replaced by Dawn French, personally, but that will clearly never happen, as her career isn't at a sufficiently low ebb.

I remember Germaine Greer 'walking' from a previous season, and don't recall her being replaced. :shrug:

 

[Rubenesque]

Ah, well remembered Alex!! No, I don't think she was replaced. I'm very ashamed not to have remembered..... being an official Big Brother's Big Mouth 'Obsessive'...... shame on me!!

lol

 

[D_alex8]

With Ken Russell having "walked" now, and others threatening to depart due to Jade & Co.'s presence in the house.... one has to wonder whether the producers shouldn't have had a few reserve celebs lined up after all.

 

[Rubenesque]

Hang onnn........ I haven't seen any today, Ken has walked???? There's nothing on the home page, apart from him saying he might.... so he has?

 

[Rubenesque]

Yep, it's just been formally announced to the house. With Jackiey shouting "sorry to lose you" so she can't realise it's because of her! lol
