There have always been people who aren't 'normal' people from series 2. It's want the audience want to see apparently. Though many of the HM' aren't everyday people any more, they are still real enough even if they are there to gain some sort of celebrity status. Just because you may want a career in the spotlight doesn't mean you aren't a real, genuine person.
But it is only in the last few years that the 'game players' have come to the fore as the ones who are admired, which I suppose proves in a way that people don't want it to be a reality show, but truly
just a game show. And I think that is a great loss.
