Most talented celebrity?
 
Bit of a subjective question I guess but who has been the most talented celebrity housemate in their careers and who is most deserving of their fame?

I'd say it's between Evander and Lee, Lionel is also up there. Poll coming.

Mystic Mock 25-01-2014 05:13 PM

Ones that are/was quite good in their field imo are Lee, Lionel, Jim, Evander, Luisa does quite well with her businesses.

And I liked Dappy's No Regrets but I don't normally like his Music very much.:joker:

Black Dagger 25-01-2014 05:16 PM

Evander, Lee, Dappy and I'd say Luisa as well tbh, you have to have half a brain to be a businesswoman. Oh and Lionel was a top presenter <3.

Livia 25-01-2014 05:17 PM

Evander, Lionel, Liz and Jim... they were too close to call for me.

King Gizzard 25-01-2014 05:17 PM

Evander

quite a big distance too

MTVN 25-01-2014 05:19 PM

Yeah was probably wrong to say it's between him and Lee, Evander has had the biggest career in his field quite easily

mizzy25 25-01-2014 05:27 PM

I hate to say it but Lee, I love blue and he has an amazing voice ive seen them live and he is a great singer. Lionel is talented as well with his dancing, dappy for his singing/rapping. jim for his comedy, Linda I suppose for her singing.

Vanessa 25-01-2014 05:28 PM

Jim, Dappy, Evander, Lee.

Brother Leon 25-01-2014 05:30 PM

Evander easily. Followed by Dappy as he's singer/songwriter/rapper.

Livia 25-01-2014 05:31 PM

I'm really surprised so few people have mentioned Liz. She had a successful career in fashion journalism, a particularly difficult area to crack, before becoming a columnist in a national newspaper. So much more difficult to do well than flogging cupcakes from a website.

abhorson 25-01-2014 05:32 PM

Jim has 30 years in SB and with prime time TV under his belt, Lee granted has good music but part of a boy band which never stood the test of time and also not a singular character, but his group are now dead in the water. Is there any real doubt?

Yeah but Liz writes for one of the nuttiest Newspapers around.

Jordan. 25-01-2014 05:33 PM

I forgot to vote Linda, can a mod add it

Alf 25-01-2014 05:33 PM

Evander is not just any other Heavyweight champion of the World, he's one of the all time great heavyweight boxers. A worldwide legend in his field.

So I choose Evander.

Me. I Am Salman 25-01-2014 05:33 PM

People voting Jim Davidson when his 'comedy' was hateful and racist :umm2:

And she makes money from being vicious about others. How would YOU feel if you were on the end of that. Just for Liz to make money?

Natalie. 25-01-2014 05:34 PM

evander

also dappy,lee,lionel and luisa

InOne 25-01-2014 05:35 PM

Definitely Luisa.

Braden 25-01-2014 05:36 PM

Evander is obviously talented at what he does since he's so well-regarded in his field.

I'd say Liz too because she is very good with her words and makes a living from it.

He made racist jokes and hateful jokes for his career, it doesn't make him those things.

and made 10x more money than any of them

flamingGalah! 25-01-2014 05:39 PM

Jim, a very successful career that started in the 70's & that is still going strong...

PMSL that someone voted for Linda though, a backing singer in a group that had ONE hit 30 years ago! :laugh2:

MeMyselfAndI 25-01-2014 05:40 PM

Easily Lee!

I forgot to mention her, but did vote her in the poll.. she may be controversial in what she writes, but some people have the knack of writing and some don't.

Black Dagger 25-01-2014 05:42 PM

and lol, being a comedian is bloody difficult, just because you think he's a tosspot and you don't appreciate his work doesn't mean he's untalented, I find lots of comedians/enn's tediously unfunny.

I never said it did, but people calling him a racist for making a career out of racist jokes which quite a few comedians do does not make him a racist.

She's not my favourite writer, and she doesn't work for my favourite paper... but credit where it's due, I reckon.

Sophiee 25-01-2014 05:45 PM

definitely lee. great singer and songwriter.
I still don't know what lionel and jasmine are famous for :suspect:.

No one said that :shrug:

Jemal 25-01-2014 05:49 PM

not someone voting for Linda *feints*

abhorson 25-01-2014 05:51 PM

Comedians have always used others for their topics, most people can see that and realise as such. But a lot still sell out. Look at Frankie Boyle and Jordan, she would have not have obviously have found it funny, and rightly so. But they do it for effect. People realise it is a joke and not to be taken seriously. It will make some laugh but not others. Does that make Liz any different from some comedians.

Mlore ROT again, millions have see his pantomimes over the years, been NO racist jokes in them, nor on Generation game/Big break. Don't be vindictive and have an open mind.
