Big Brother to throw a celebrity into the mix
Friday, 08 Apr 2005 16:28

Bosses at Big Brother are planning to liven up events in this year's show, by putting a top celebrity into the house.


Not content with the usual collection of fame-hungry members of the public, Channel 4 chiefs are considering bringing in a famous face who they hope will pull in the viewers.

Football legend Gazza, religious fanatic David Icke, and glamour model Lucy Pinder are all in the running, according to the Daily Star.

"If they add a celebrity to the mix it will be interesting to see who the public decide to cheer on," an insider told the newspaper.

If Gazza does decide to enter the house, it will not be the first time a football legend mixed with housemates. In Argentina's version of the show, the country's best ever player - one Diego Maradona - mingled with housemates. But the overweight star did not stick around for long, the producers pulled him out after a day entertaining the housemates and viewing audience alike.

It is surprising that TV bosses feel the need to liven up the show, given the sheer volume of weirdos who turned up for the BB auditions for the new series, which starts in May.

A contortionist, a female porn star, a convicted car thief and two frisky pensioners are all rumoured to be in the shortlist for the final 12 housemates.

However, Channel 4 has refused to give away any details about who the chosen ones are - this will be announced less than a week before the show kicks off.

I don't think that would be right, just stick to normal people. I like getting to know a whole set of new people.

I love the big brothr rmours it gets me all excited for the show! I can't see this happening I don't think they'd want a celeb to over shadow the hosemates, or do they :conf:

bananarama 09-04-2005 04:13 PM

A footballer or religious nutter is all we need to bring BB down to that of boring and mundane......No selfish nut case attention grabbing celebs at all costs.....:bawling::bawling:

Hooly One 10-04-2005 11:59 AM

I hope it's just a rumour.:nono:

Kaz 10-04-2005 12:07 PM

This 'rumour' pops up every year. :laugh:

They HAVE done it in other BBs, though ..... didn't some housemates get to play football with Maradona - and others had Status Quo play a concert for them? :spin2:

Guess we'll just have to wait and see!!!!! :laugh:

Hooly One 10-04-2005 12:09 PM

Yes and they turned out to be false, let's just wait and see.:laugh:

BigSister 10-04-2005 12:09 PM

Yeah Kaz but they didnt come in as an housemate and could win the money. Im all for an celeb coming for a day but not to win

Hooly One 10-04-2005 02:37 PM

I agree BS, they should just have it has a day thing.:thumbs:

Samz 10-04-2005 03:04 PM

If they do bring in a celeb, the celeb shouldn't be allowed to win the show. That wouldn't be fair.

BigSister 11-04-2005 12:16 PM

No I agree Samz thats what they have Celeb BB for

BigBruva 25-04-2005 04:49 AM

No no no, i don't want a celebrity in the house at all. I mean there is CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER.

C4 please don't do it.

Romantic Old Bird 25-04-2005 01:45 PM

I could cope with an ex-housemate as long as it isn't Jade ****** Goody
:shocked::shocked:

Kore 25-04-2005 03:27 PM

NOOOO, not a celeb, i hate the celebrity bb and 'im a celeb get me out of here!!' as it is. :bored:

bananarama 25-04-2005 05:42 PM

If an ex BB housmate were to be chosen as the "Celeb" then I think it should be Emma. The only reason being like her or not she was cheated out of her position in the house in BB5 and would deserve a second chance at completing a BB series.. Other wise I don't want to see any celeb BB type or otherwise.

I would like to see Helen as a celeb of course but on the other hand I think she has I hope gone beyond setting her self up for the possible humiliation that BB could bring to a contestant. Much better in the house and arms of Paul..:hugesmile:

Dan_ 25-04-2005 05:45 PM

Emma was not cheated, she cheated herself by being an out of control mroron.

bananarama 25-04-2005 06:20 PM

Victor and Jason were also out of control morons especially Victor but they were not cheated out of their position in the house......It takes two to tango...Emma didn't just argue with herself. She instead stood up to that monster of a sick personality named "Victor".

Buffyfan 25-04-2005 06:20 PM

I really wound not like a Celeb in the house it wound'nt be to good, if it was an old housemate however I would like that, if it's someone I like, someone from BB5 would be best http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/foru...lies/dance.gif

Emma was too much of a loose cannon and thats why BB got rid of her. Victor a monster with a sick personality lol :rolleyes:. He was fine most of the time while Emma acted like a mental heatlth patient.

BigBruva 26-04-2005 01:20 AM

An ex-housemate, now that would be interesting. They should put marco in as he was laughable.

:laugh::laugh: Victor fine most of the time.:laugh::laugh: You must have been watching a different version of BB5 or had your eyes and ears closed most of the time..

Emma was a normal gutsy lass that would have no nonesense from the mafia mentality of the Victors of this world. No loose cannon just a girl with the guts to face up to a sicky monster like Victor.
