Default Desperate bids to get on BB!

THE Daily Star’s Big Brother golden tickets contest has sparked a stampede.

Fans so desperate to get their hands on a ticket – which could get them into the BB house – have even resorted to stealing them. Demand for the prized 120 golden tickets is enormous. It’s a clear sign the race to get on Channel 5’s new Big Brother series this summer is really hotting up.

BB fan Matt Oakes bought 217 copies of the paper on Saturday. He cleaned out several newsagents in his home town of Coventry. But his excitement turned to heartbreak when he found more than 70 golden ticket wallets had been nicked by sly BB addicts.
Matt, 27, said: “I had been been looking forward to the competition. But people have beaten me to it and stolen the envelopes. I am very upset. “But I guess it shows how desperate people are.”

Eagle-eyed fans may recognise Matt. The self-confessed bisexual virgin was a BB golden ticket winner in the Channel 4 KitKat stunt in 2006, missing out to model and housewife Susie Verrico, 48. Matt said: “I’m hoping this time the producers pick me.”
Copies of the Daily Star sold out on Saturday as readers rushed to snap up the golden ticket wallets. It’s expected that, as in 2006, some fans will put their golden tickets up for sale on eBay.

Anyone who gets a golden ticket with its unique number must follow instructions on the back and register the ticket. They will then be fast-tracked to the final stages of BB auditions this summer. If they impress and pass all the police and medical checks, they could then be picked as a housemate for the show’s first Channel 5 series which starts in September.
