Default Why is Frankie getting so much stick about being a non celeb!
He probably has the most well known face out of all of them.

Because he isn't a celebrity. And he isn't talented. He can't sing, He's famous for being a drug-addled drunk. Only those who read the tabloids and trash mags know him as anything more than someone who was chucked out of the XFactor. Most people couldn't pick him out of a small crowd if it wasn't for his ridiculous haircut.

Don't forget the millions of people who watched xfactor..I'm sure they will know him.

Anyway, what the hell merits a celeb status these days?..

Really? You think perhaps I'm living in a time warp? If it hadn't been for this show he'd have sunk without trace. I predict another few months of him in and out of rehab and he'll either be dead of forgotten.

My point is that that doesn't constitute being a celeb these days.Heck you only have had to appear on bb to be described as one nowadays.

That about covers it.

Tbh though I can see him winning because of the fall and rise type story that sells to people. Surely we can't just keep kicking him even though it is fun.

The clue might be in the fact that it is Celebrity Big Brother, and he is not a celebrity - along with several other non entities that are in there.

It depends on the definition of a celeb. If it is based on talent then I would not include soap actors as anyone could do that. Not sure if i would include madsen as he appears to just play himself in films.

The rugby guy has a talent, Denise is a good actor. No one else could really be called a celeb more just a well known face.

He made me chuckle during his admittance of fancying Denise. Lordy, she would eat him alive and spit the bones out for breakfast!!

I'm routing for him to redeem his bad boy persona, even a little..

I can't argue with that. Although being well known isn't the same as being a celebrity. Fred West was well known. I wouldn't call him a celebrity.

I wasn't generalising..you asked me a question....I just answered it.

Maybe you shouldn't ask a question if you don't want the answer, it makes you look like your fishing for compliments.

If you check the dictionary for what celebrity means you will see it means someone who is famous...frankie cocozzo is.therefore he can be referred to as a celeb.
