To be fair to James. He actually added more of a % of followers whilst in the house than the other two. James went in the house with around 10k followers.

Hopkins already had lots of followers prior to CBB because of what she has done before, she was always trending before and making stupid comments. Luisa's amount came from what she did AFTER CBB. Working on BOTS, doing modelling shoots etc...

But if we looked at percentage gain whilst being in the house, James had the most. And it's still rising, wouldn't surprise me if he gets to 100k by the end of the year, especially now he has things to do coming up (incl charity events).

Stuff like that, same could be said for Jade Quickenden, before he entered IAC he had around 150k. Now he has almost half a million. He didn't gain much during his stint on the X Factor. It usually depends on what shows you do after.

Austin and James were the two who got the biggest % gain of them all. Austin went in with (I'm sure it was under 5k), but now has 42k.

Well Katie Hopkins is more known for her opinions rather than the Apprentice, so I can understand why she's high. Plus she has been around way longer. According to Twitter Audit, only 58% of Luisa's followers are real :worry:. But I think her appearance on CBB definitely helped her career even more. I mean she's a legend. Before CBB, James had 24k followers, which is lower than most of the BB15/16 contestants, which is quite shocking. But now he has around 60k. So like what Salv said, it depends on what shows you do.

Did anyone see Jaimie Lester on Homes under the Hammer renovating a house.

Still cocky, promised the world for the show but delivered the least option discussed.

Now he would be a good candidate, his mouth runs away with him.

Sorry couldn't paste a link but he is easily Googled

I think to make Apprentice hms work is to have them on CBB fairly soon after their show. Luisa went in right after, James went in around 9 months after. He was shortlisted for CBB15 but I think he would not have won that series as it was too recent after Apprentice (where he wasn't liked) and he would have mixed in with the wrong crowd IMO, at least by going in CBB16, he mixed in with the right people, helped by friendships with Natasha and Austin. Who would he have been friends with in CBB15? Chegwin? Cami Li?

people like Jamie were on it 3 years back, so in Jan it'd be 4 years. No one would remember. I reckon it will certainly be from this years Apprentice IF they do pick one.

Luisa <3 Katie H <3

James underwhelmed but he was good on TA itself :clap1:

Uzma and Melissa are needed for drams!

Yes, I agree

I only mentioned him as I saw him recently on HUTH, apart from that, I wouldn't have remembered him.
But, they do scrape the bottom of the barrel with some of these so called celeb housemates, so you never know.

Well James was horrific, Katie Hopkins lived off of one Housemate.

The only decent one that I can think of that came off The Apprentice was Luisa imo.

Admittedly they're not as bad as the TOWIE lot though.

James is the greatest reality TV contestant of all time so they should all be like him please

I still think there's a massive discrepancy, gaining 50k is all good but Luisa and Katie both gained like 100k each which is 100% more plus they had more followers to start anyway. Doubt a few charity gigs will get him to 100k. To be fair they were both in Jan CBB which is more popular and both have been around longer in the public eye. Still think women are more attractive to the media, at least the Z-listers.

Could have him reach it. He's gained 8k since last week alone. Almost 70k now.
