^ Thanks Remy! I thought there would have to be someone else out there lol

I try to think of some more, I will ask my contacts lol

Dr. Will and Janelle maybe from BBUSA. Not in the Jade Goody leagues (although who would want be in a league with Goody as the headliner). But Dr Will appears on various TV shows, but still using his skill as a doctor, I think he was in Dr. 90210.

Yea, but no-one cares about BB in America.

I have absolutely no idea, how much they've made. But these former HMs have been in the media a lot thanks to BB:

Series 1:

Mika (came in 5th) - he hosted a cooking series, where various celebrities cooked their favourite meals. I'm not completely sure, whether the programme is still alive.

Series 2:

Mira (the 10th evicted) - she had a programme aimed mostly to women on MTV3, one of our leading television-channels.

That's about it for Finland. There are a few former HMs, who've been in the media. But they haven't really done anything more than just hosting some fares.
