No Reality Show Stars to Appear in CBB 15?

26 Nov, 2014 - 12:47 PM by James

According to a report in The Sun there will be no reality stars from shows such as The Only Way is Essex, Geordie Shore and Made in Chelsea entering the house when Celebrity Big Brother returns in January. The paper claims Big Brother producers are refusing to meet names from those shows, saying that they are too 'camera aware'. A source is quoted in The Sun: "Bosses really want to shake up CBB. They want more people not used to being filmed." Previous CBB housemates from scripted reality shows include, Charlotte Crosby and Ricci Guarnaccio from Geordie Shore, Sam Faiers, Amy Childs and Mario Falcone from TOWIE, and Ollie Locke and Stephanie Pratt from Made in Chelsea.

They are apparently moving away from people who know how to play to the camera's as they want more "real" people who are not used to having there private life filmed in the house. I hope this is true it would be nice to have a "Celebrity" series again

This sounds like an amazing plan! Hopefully BB15 and the followed summer series were just a fluke and we can get back on track again for 2015. Now for the live feed please!!

Sorry but I do not believe that for a second. If, come January, for a five week series, they manage to assemble a cast with not one person from a reality show, I will give £50 to some charity. Promise.

Hopefully not - I'm not prepared to sacrifice the likes of Frenchy just to get rid of the TOWIE bored

She has seemed to have grown up quite a bit and doesn't want the wild lifestyle anymore so she won't be the same as how Charlotte was in her series. I think she would actually make a very good housemate, whether she is a reality star or not. I like the reality stars I just want 1 or 2 of them though not a whole house full of them
