The vamps are current, Sair and Malique are still in Corrie and Hollyoaks respectively, everyone know Nick Knowles, Noel Edmonds and John Barrowman from one thing or another, Anne is from the most watched gameshow in recent memory. Harry is well known in the sports world (I don't know much in this sect, but I knew who he was).
The only ones who haven't done much recently are Emily, Rita and Fleur. And even then they're known from Inbetweeners, EastEnders and X-Factor, so they're not completely unknown.
Its a pretty good lineup.
Now compare that with who BB shoved in the house, and its blatantly clear why one gets the viewers and the other didn't.

Knowles, Edmonds and Harry are all well past their heyday though and have tarnished their reputations in various ways the last couple of years, it's true that they're bigger names than BB could get but wouldn't consider them current stars
