Most famous celebrity contestant ever?
 
Who would youse say is the MOST famous housemate ever? I think examples are mainly male like Jack Dee, Mark Owen, Vinnie Jones, Dirk Benedict, Evander Holyfield? Who would you say tops the list?

Jermaine and La Toya Jackson, Evander Holyfield, Tara Reid

Katia Ivanova

Shaun 11-04-2014 11:07 PM

I'd have said Vinnie.

Z 12-04-2014 01:18 PM

Yeah probably the Jackson siblings

Joelle. 12-04-2014 01:23 PM

Michael Madsen or the Jacksons. Stephanie Beacham possibly too.

lostalex 12-04-2014 01:26 PM

most famous? meaning most recognizable names, it's gotta be the Jacksons...

after them, i think Dennis Rodman (especially after his most recent north korea adventures) or Evander Hollyfield.

I think mini-me(verne troyer) is pretty famous too....Austin powers was a HUGE movie around the world, everyone knows mini-me...

Lionel Blair is quite famous here

not really, i think even in the UK everyone under 30 didn't know who he was... i think the under 30s knew the towie and geordie shore people more than they knew him, right?

they might have heard of him, but i think they probably knew the reality show people more than him.

lostalex 12-04-2014 01:33 PM

hey, with the scandal, perhaps jimmy saville going on CBB, does that count? he's certainly very famous now.


Jake. 12-04-2014 04:00 PM

30 million odd people know Julie Goodyear from Corrie alone, I'd say she's up there

Marsh. 12-04-2014 04:02 PM

Plus Corrie's popular in Canada too, especially back in the 90s when she was in it.

Marsh. 12-04-2014 04:03 PM

Under 30s only knowing Geordie/Towie is a bit extreme.

Under 20s maybe. They are a very recent trend.

30 million? that's barely half of the population of the UK. at least 1 BILLION know the Jackson family, on every continent.

I can't even name any actors from American soaps, i doubt most british people know the soap actors there. for all the hoopla m,are about british soaps on BBC and the charity shows, how many british people actually watch that ****e? i really hope it's not as much as they think. If that many british peole are actually watching those lame soaps, then shame on you.

it's not popular in canada. lol who told you that?

do you honestly think if you went to canada and asked random people who julie goodyear is, they'd have any clue?? lol

they'd probably guess it was the granddaughter of the guy who makes blimps.

I didn't say she was the most famous person to enter the house ever, British star wise she's up there with the most well known to enter

Vanessa 12-04-2014 05:12 PM

Michael Madsen or Steven Baldwin.

Maxxie. 13-04-2014 12:07 AM

I wouldn't say latoya jackson is known too much around the world, i mean, she doesn't really do too much. Jermaine on the other hand, defo top 5.
