Vinnie & Gazza for $1,000,000
VINNIE Jones has been offered $1MILLION to team up with his old footie rival Paul Gascoigne in Celebrity Big Brother.
The ex-Wimbledon hardman, now a movie star, was contacted by show producers with a lucrative offer to "keep an eye" on former England hero Gazza in a ratings-winning ploy for the BB house. And Vinnie, famously photographed grasping Gazza's tackle when his Crazy Gang side played Newcastle in 1988, has told chiefs he will sign the £620,000 deal tonight. A pal of Vinnie, 44, told The Sun: "He's been offered a massive chunk of cash. "He was planning to take January off - but $1million for three weeks' work was difficult to turn down. "He is filming again from February so the show fits in perfectly. He's laughing that he's the Million Dollar Man. "It doesn't even sound like work to Vinnie if it means a chance of three weeks with Gazza. They go way back and still keep in touch." Gazza, 42, has had a series of consultations with a psychologist to ensure he can cope with the pressure of the Channel 4 show. The star, who also played for Lazio, Rangers and Spurs, has battled drink and drugs since hanging up his boots in 2004. Meanwhile ex-bricklayer Vinnie has built up a fortune and moved to the Hollywood Hills after a string of roles in blockbusters including the third X-Men film. The star - whose son Aaron is scheduled for a tour of duty in Afghanistan with the Household Cavalry in the New Year - is also expected to donate a percentage of his fee to Help for Heroes. Others signed up to BB include Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss, Ronnie Wood's ex Ekaterina Ivanova and The Sun's original Page 3 Idol Nicola T.

Im surprised about this... Vinnie Jones actually would be a good signing! So I hope it's true.
I think CBB have to be very careful about putting Gazza in... is he mentally fit enough to cope with the experience? I don't think so... he shouldn't be put in there... he could have a breakdown on TV and BB would get heavily criticised once again. That's the last thing that Endemol needs. |
I read the greedy bugger is now trying for 1.5m. The nerve of him - talk about delusions of grandeur!
