Hi Inone:xyxwave:,

Not normally, but this year keeping track of Ben as I really enjoyed him in the BB house - he makes me laugh and I find his stories interesting to listen to on the radio.

If truth be told, not a great deal unless someone makes an impact on me for whatever reason.

Ben has for me. Mario too but both for very different reasons.

The whole JJJ thing, the media spin and what I perceive as extreme conning going on, fascinates me.

Life is more interesting that fiction.

I guess people will follow someone more if they're from their city or something

Bizarrely, I don't like her, but she has the ability to make me want to strangle her, and laugh at her antics, both at the same time.

I think the fact she doesn't take herself too seriously, really helps!

Nah not at all.

I get so obsessed when BB is actually on, and then about a week after I feel so stupid for getting drawn into it all and fiercely arguing over people who dont even matter to me :/

Always nice to see what Ben, Ziggy, Imogen, and dale are doing as well

Not necessarily - do all Bristolians follow Josie? maybe not - sometimes its luck if they are from your City.:dance:

The ones I care about are the ones who were my favourites, I like to know they are OK, I check the AT threads now and again for news but I only really keep up with 2, Rachel Rice and Ben, Ben much more so because I expect to see him a lot in the future, he has a certain charm and personality that I love.:cheer2::cheer2:

Now this made me laugh. It is so true!! We all get so absorbed that I think we all get carried away. Perhaps we should all be 'carted away' !! LOL

Yes, she's not been the best ambassador for Bristol. although some will disagree.

I knew both charlie(bb10) before he went into the house.

Yet he is one of my most hated HMs ever. Though to be fair, I didnt like him much before the show either :laugh:

Mind I do usually find out from friends if he gets upto anything(IE. gets beaten up again :p), I dont particularly follow what he does :/

Neither do I follow Anthony(bb6) or liam(bb8 I think)...who are both from near where I live :)

Oop north hasnt been represented very well D:

Lol, not that near thankfully, about a 15-20 minute drive away (from where she used to live anyway)

I dont think she was at all, she seemed to exaggerate her accent as well.

Same - there's something about Ben...... I'll be interested in watching him because I love his humour and he's so easy on the eye. But am not really bothered otherwise - another summer distraction is all

em just Brian Dowling, he made me laugh so much both times he was in BB and I would love to see him on my TV again sometime soon

Mario of course

Because after BB some of the Mario supporters (me included) got into quite close personal contact with him.
(And with that, I don't mean just chatting with him on Twitter)

My favourite housemates have been Anthony, Charlie, Rodrigo and Mario. I also quite liked Craig from BB6 and Ben.

I have been interested in what all of them have done since their BB. I still follow what Anthony does 5 years on and him and Mario are my favouites I have met all except Craig. Anthony 20+ times and he is really nice. Charlie was very nice on the half dozen times I've met him and Mario the time I met him too.

that's some amount of devotion there Malz ... travelling from Germany to spend some time with a BB housemate, and one who didn't even win!! :joker: yep, some real devotion there.

It doesn't matter if the housemate wins or not, people can still like them enough to meet them if the opportunity arises

BB11 was such a bad series, it's hard for me to care what any of its alumni are doing. Can't say I haven't wondered if Nadia got through the whole attempted suicide thing alright though.

I dont believe I said there was anything wrong with it, I believe I said it was some amount of devotion being shown for a person who simply took part in a tv reality show - and not even the winner of the show.

To answer your question Malz, I tend to make friends via my social circle, and networking in real life with people I interact with that way and meet them accordingly. I dont tend to gather them by watching them on a gameshow.

What must be an important issue for whom MALZ? Your method of delivery of your comment is dubious in that it is unclear if you are being derisory ... especially when you refer to winning (which Mario didnt). if so, A person goes on a gameshow to win - Mario clearly wanted to win and there's nothing wrong with that. Having a career.... I'd say that was an important issue for most people - including Mario. After all, he's trying to launch a career in the fashion industry - or do you not think that is an important issue for Mario? I find that surprising as I'd have thought you'd support Mario in making a career in what he appears to enjoy doing.

Safe journey from Germany Malz. I hope you enjoy meeting up with your new friends and travelling together to Steve's charity match. I'm sure it will be enjoyable. :blush:

I agree with your post. A career and/or winning is important to a housemate.

I didn't explain very well. I meant there is nothing wrong with following a housemate who wasn't a winner. I like Anthony and look for whay he is doing, but I also follow what others I listed are doing after they leave the BB house.

there isn't and I didn't say there was - I simply stated that if it had been the Winner of the Show, it would imo, have more impact. That's only my opinion of course.

My point is that Malz is clearly very devoted to Mario that they are willing to travel over foreign lands to meet with him. I'm sure Mario will be very appreciative.

Whenever someone posts what an ex-HM is doing nowadays or if a magazine does a 'where are they now' type feature, I'll normally read it just out of curiosity.

I won't really watch or listen to any TV or radio show other than an initial watch/listen unless it's actually any good.

I don't follow any of them on twitter or facebook, I have no real interest in meeting up with any of them so PAs - I don't want to meet them or be their friend.

I don't know...I guess I am interested, but it's not the end of the world if they disappear entirely :) Although when they're over-exposed in the mags, on twitter, on TV etc etc, I wish they would! (Tweed, Josie - I'm looking at you!)
