Ant and Dec have labelled Chantelle Houghton a celebrity "trick' gone bad.

The pair, who are currently starring in their first film, 'Alien Autopsy', think the 'Celebrity Big Brother' winner's desire to be famous has gone too far.

Dec revealed to Britain's Arena magazine: "Chantelle is like a trick played on celebrities that has got out of hand.

"I'm not sure that would happen in any other country."

He added: "Celebrity used to be a by product of your day job, but now it's just a day job to be a celebrity. That never used to exist before.

"I wonder how many kids now do want to be firemen and policemen and nurses and stuff, and how many kids just want to be famous.

"It's a sad kind of reflection."

But the pair - who have presented reality TV shows 'Pop Idol' and 'I'm a Celebrity

… Get Me Out of Here' - insist they are not threatened by this new breed of stars.

Ant said: "It's no challenge to what I do.

"If they're in the paper more than me, then that's good. It's very curious though, it'll be interesting to see what happens.'

How is that romours?

[krissybabe06]

duno it just seems untrue thats all! ant and dec are lush i never thought in a million years they would say anything like that, a while ago there was articles in the paper ages ago stating they were having a gay relationship, i somehow think its rumours, maybe it isnt though

[Pipergun]

They're definitely just rumours, Krissy!

From what I've gathered, they're childhood friends, and Ant's getting married in the near future!

*Just realised I've read your post wrong, Krissy! I misunderstood! I'm not sure whether their comments on Chantelle are rumours or not in that case.

[krissybabe06]

yeah, well not every1 likes everybody in the world, no matter how nice ant and dec are they cant like everybody i suppose lol

[BB-Rocks]

I don't see how its comments because its not ilke their say anything bad, its the truth.

[xWee-Babezx]

Why is everything that is wirrten in the paper konwn as romours. Some of it is true

[krissybabe06]

hm yeah some of it but most of it isnt, apparently chantelle's pregnant now because she has a tiny chubby bump, maybe she's got pmt !!

[Siouxsie]

Alien Autopsy. It's already out, and I've seen it. Not great.

[BB-Rocks]

I didn't know it was out yet

It didn that good, they should stick with presenting

[Fangz]

Ant and Dec annoy me no end, so I'm going to have to side with Chantelle on this one. If Ant and Dec can be celebs, I don't see why she can't be.

[Ruth]

I think their comments have probably been taken out of context. It sounds to me like they're not actually having a go at Chantelle personally - more at the current culture of making celebrities who are only famous for being famous (or in Chantelle's case, only famous for not being famous - being a non-celeb on a celeb show)!

[Sunny_01]

I agree with what you have said Ruth - those 2 are not the type to have a pop at someone in that way.

And, of course, the most popular tv presenters of the last decade really need to have a go at a nonentity like Chantelle to get publicity, don't they? The same must be true for Simon Cowell as well, because we all know he really needs the cash and the attention, too.

So why bother? If she is such a nobody, nomark nothing, why slate her and bother discussing her?

I appreciate they were asked about her, but they could just have been diplomatic. Ant would know that his comments would get in the papers.

i think every1 can say watever they want ant and deck were jus expresin thier opinions, they r very successful so they r definatly r not doin it 4 publicity! no1 cares bout them anymore they jus keep puttin them in magazines coz they gt nufin else 2 write bout muahahha

Why bother mopping up a spill, when it will dry eventually anyway? Why go to work when you can sign-on instead? Why bother to get yourself an education and/or work hard when you can have it given to you on a plate just because you're a gullible bimbo?

The comments were quite accurate, so there's really no need for diplomacy under the circumstances.

Thats a bit of a trite argument. If we were to carry on that logic, what state would the world be in?

Why do anything? Why not rob a bank? Because its wrong. Why not vandalise a church? Its wrong.

I think you need to channel your negativity into something more positive. Just think what you could achieve.
