Apparently he wanted a fee of £750,000 which would be worth it IMO. I think they deliberately have low budget names for this series as I think they could be saving up for January's CBB. They paid Jedward £1m and offered Joan Collins the same so if they push themselves then they really could have had the most famous ever contestant this year.
Don't think IAC would pay that either but somehow I think CBB would. I also saw this article in the mirror which claims Dr Conrad Murray is in advanced talks for IAC which I think is bloody hilarious!! I once joked that he'd be on the show but I find it hard to believe he actually might be.
