Imogen thinks BB housemates should get everything they can out of the experience

Former Big Brother housemate Imogen Thomas has advised this year's crop of contestants to milk the experience for all it's worth.

The brunette says people applying for Big Brother 2007 shouldn't expect their lives to change after being on the show - but said they should get what they can out of it.

"If you go on a reality show you don't come out thinking 'I'll be the next Davina McCall', you know, it doesn't happen like that," the former Miss Wales said.

The 23-year-old said she always intended to make as much from the experience as possible.

"I just thought 'I'm going to milk it when I can and get on with things', and that's exactly what I've done," she said.

Imogen has used her appearance on Big Brother to help her modelling career and has a television show on Welsh TV with fellow housemate Glyn Wise.

She added: "Don't go in there thinking your life is going to be absolutely amazing when you come out and you're going to be the next big thing.

"Because it's a reality show at the end of the day."
