May be a silly question but how many of these housemates were actual celebrities?
 
When the most famous thing you've done is be on Celebrity Big Brother, are you really a celebrity? Or are you a celebrity wannabees? The only one I know for a fact is a celebrity is Michael but the rest? I don't know a whole lot about British TV/Sports so you tell me who are the real celebrities and who aren't?

Here you go Liberty

Andrew Stone - minor celeb in the loosest of terms, had a minor hit with a band and runs a dance studio
Denise Welch - definitely a celeb, B List, actress and presenter of Loose Women, on British Tv, Itv 1 channel
Frankie Coconut - not a celeb at all, only known for being kicked out of a tv talent show for taking cocaine and boasting about it.
Gareth Thomas - sports star, I had never heard of him before the show.
Georgia Salpa - model, I had never heard of her either.
Kristina and Karissa - bimbos from the playboy mansion, go away.
Kirk Norcross - only famour for a fly on the wall reality show. Dickhead.
Michael Madsen - you already know about him
Natalie Cassidy - well known soap actress for years, has released fitness vids
Natasha Giggs - only known for shagging a famous footie player, her brother in law in fact.
Nicola McLean - model, known for being a bitch.
Mc Romeo - former popstar

I had never heard of the twins,Kirk,Georgia or Gareth before this

pinkpanther 24-01-2012 02:03 PM

michael madsen super star
gareth thomas legitimately quite famous (100 caps for wales and british lions captain and won european cup playing for toulouse) also tv pundit and famous gay sportsman been all round the chat shows in america and mickey rourkes making a movie of his life. so alfie is legit
ummmmm Ive just about heard of denise but she just chats sh*t on a lying sexist nonsense chat show
the rest are simply not celebrities, its a joke

pinkpanther 24-01-2012 02:04 PM

oh natalie whatsher name id seen her briefly in that fffing appaling show deadenders didnt know her name....does that mean everyone on there is a celebrity? who knows who cares...burn the place down

dwarling 24-01-2012 02:47 PM

Just Madsen as far as I can see...

pinkpanther 24-01-2012 02:50 PM

yeah lets face it , just madsen. hes the only guy that would be known outside the Uk. (even in the UK weve never heard of most of them) ths sheer bland one dimensionalism of all the guests bar madsen is staggering. theyre all cardboard cutouts and the super duber dumb viewing audience cant even see it. forget 3d tv, these viewers only see people in 1dimension

MeMyselfAndI 24-01-2012 03:33 PM

Proper Celebs were just Michael & Denise

Ramsay 24-01-2012 03:36 PM

Strangely enough i heard of all of them before they went in bar Natasha and Gareth ..usually i only know a few but yeah only Michael and Denise are proper celebs

David R 24-01-2012 03:37 PM

Out of all of them Micheal is the only one who is really a celebrity.

The rest are just soap stars, models, people who used to be slightly well known and people who know famous people.... to me they are not celebrities.

"Frankie Coconut - not a celeb at all, only known for being kicked out of a tv talent show for taking cocaine and boasting about it."


But here has been at Celeb places and before going in here was getting Press.
He is Reject because he took Coke and went wilder"


I am sure Loose Women will have him on a few times
and maybe he can get a Gig.
Even with a Sink to wash his Hair - live on air

He is known for X-Factor Sacked

David R 24-01-2012 03:41 PM

Pete Burns calls him frankie 'coke up his nose a' :joker:

I could see him doing some love island type show were he has to pick from different girls :joker:

arista 24-01-2012 03:42 PM

I lke Michael in his Films
as he is not like everyone else

Brother Leon 24-01-2012 04:03 PM

Michael
Denise
Kirk

Visage 24-01-2012 04:06 PM

Only one I hadn't heard of was Kirk.

Black Dagger 24-01-2012 04:07 PM

I had heard of them all this series, some not as much as others, I.E I didn't really have much clue on what Georgia was all about.

Perhaps a little bit of balance. She's known for Eastenders and that's it.

She's done no significant acting since. If you have never watched Eastenders in your life, you could quite easily have no idea who she is. My parents, for instance, big Coronation St fans, have never watched Eastenders and wouldn't have the foggiest who she is. I'm the opposite, i like Eastenders but if you showed me someone from the Coronations St cast, unless they've has acting gigs elsewhere, i wouldn't know them from adam.

I would rank her as C/D list, below Denise, who is also known for her daytime chatshow

Yes it unfortunately seemed she was all looks and no personality.

reece(: 24-01-2012 04:34 PM

I had to Google Kirk, Gareth and Georgia

Saph 24-01-2012 04:41 PM

Denise, Michael & Natalie I would say are the most famous for whatever reason.

Kirk & Frankie are 'now-age' famous because they've been on TV recently.

K&K & Andrew have had big TV shows but had sort of faded away from the spotlight.

Romeo was never really that big anyway so he scrapes the celebrity barrel.

Gareth is apparently famous but i've never heard of him.. same for Georgia.

Natasha is the same as Kirk & Frankie as she's a 'now-age' celeb, come this time next year, we wont have a clue who she is.
