"Playing up to the cameras." - Big Brother in general and international BB - ThisisBigBrother.com

Can we put an end to this being used as a criticism of certain housemates? It's so redundant. It's like criticising cats for having whiskers.

It's so completely irrelevant a point for two reasons:

- The cameras are on 24/7.
- It's a reality TV show. You could make the case that the first 2 or 3 series of Big Brother contestants weren't fame-hungry, but literally every one since has been.

I personally dont think all the HMs are fame-hungry, but it really is a tedious remark.

Yeah, it's annoying. Tbh I think everyone plays up to the camera to a certain extent.

Yeah they are irritating stuff to use against a Housemate, I just wish that a Housemate will be entertaining in there even if there faking it.
