I am kinda confused what is the appeal to the housemates these days.
The last celebrity to ever be made from the show was Josie Gibson who has become dire. Plus she was almost a lower level of Z list. I really don't know why the housemates think they will get anything from it. But will they? For example will someone like Lauren make any cash? Will she get a job or anything from this? Same with people like Aaron. Or Becky who we know actually went in for future jobs. I thought the last people to actually make any money from BB was Josie and John James in 2010, or can people actually make money or a living from this? Just an honest question. Of course most of the people on this forum would go on for the experience, as would I. But ever since what Aarron said about 4 housemates trying to commit suicide. I worry for housemates entering the house. Do they think they are gonna be some sort of celebrity or something? TL DR: Can The HMS Make much cash/living or future jobs from BB? |

Lauren has already appeared in Nuts mag which will have earned her a couple of grand, and Arron is going to be doing a gay magazine according to some thread on here which will earn him something.
I think most of the younger housemates just do PA's in clubs in and around London which they get paid a small amount for and just get to have a good time for a couple of months, and then it's over. But if you're a young and attractive female then you're guaranteed an offer of a few grand to strip off for Nuts. |

Doesn't seem like it can get you much work or cash in the long run. Same with Becky. Won't this have damaged her chances of getting a mainstream acting job? |

If they push hard and have talent there is a chance of break through, but Id say its a rare chance.
Like Locke said young 'fitties' will get a go at modelling, and depending on how popular they are, could be for a long run.

Guess it depends, it'd definitely harm some of their chances but I'm sure some of the housemates from recent years have still got a good job now. Some of them probably just return to the job they had before the house aswell.

and all that's in between

I think the only way to make money off BB these days is to have the right sort of personality for future TV projects, be it a reality show or as a presenter.

Good posts so far. I just can't bare the idea of any of the outsiders trying to do something silly like BB12 Aaron said. I just don't like the idea of any of them being that depressed from the show.

Depends.
Someone like me, would go on and become big - like Jade Goody.. although I'd probably do something and wreck it for myself, like she did. The only one from the remaining housemates that could make alot of money is Sara, if she goes full nude.

No .....
Those days are long gone, when even an also-ran (e.g. Lea Walker, BB7) could make Ł3k a night for a couple of PAs a week in the months leading up to Christmas ..... :jdc: Last edited by Omah; 06-08-2012 at 10:56 PM. |

They will probably all make a bit of money but most of them won't be around for long, they will be forgotten in a few weeks. My hubby says the only job Becky is likely to get is to be a model for a blow up doll, that's what he thought she looked like on her eviction.

Yes, they do their make-up and get paid a few grand.

You can't make a living per se, you still need a day job but it can be a nice earner if you have a niche and mass marketability. Josie BB11 winner had the 'curvy real women' schtick and gained diet DVDs, mag column, spot on C5's OK!TV etc.
This year I think Deana, Lauren and Arron will do the best with Deana the more successful. Deana has got broad and niche appeal. There are very few young Brit-Indian celebs around given the huge contribution to UK. She won't strip (shes Sikh etc) but it's obvious loads of guys across racial lines fancy her. It's strange reading on Twitter, Facebook guys saying "never fancied an 'Indian'-bird before". Very very odd. Arron has got loads of tarty slanty fringe teenie girls fancying him. He's bringing out a Onesie collection apparently, thought he was joking but not. Lauren is lads mag fodder. Conor will be a local celeb in Derry (lets be honest it's not exactly a crowded market there) so he will do nightclub PAs. Last edited by alex_front2; 06-08-2012 at 01:18 PM. |

Didn't Craig BB1 do DIY shows for a while?
I saw a 'reality TV rich list' in a trashy mag and bar Jade BB3, he was BB highest earner with GBP 6m fortune which shocked me. Last edited by alex_front2; 06-08-2012 at 01:37 PM. |

Of course Imogen, mainly from kiss and tells and 'My fab life' 'Now I am preggers' etc. Although she couldn't really talk about Ry*n G*ggs.
She boasts about spending GBP1k on lingerie so she's not skint Last edited by alex_front2; 06-08-2012 at 01:40 PM. |

Couple hundred for being on BOTS
Couple hundred for selling a story to a magazine each time Couple thousand for modelling I think perfumes, other tv, and singing careers are over for good now though I'd say 10-20k maximum. |

All cynicism aside, I was offered a job as soon as I got back from BBBOTS.
Granted, it was selling catalogues from a call centre, but work is work ... |
