Do you think it is jealousy on Mario's part - or do you think it's more envy of what he may perceive - that Ben is continuing his success in the media world, that he had even before BB - in an industry that he (Mario) has failed to have an impact on.

do you think it may be more envy rather than jealousy?

I initially started the thread with the word jealous - as I do honestly feel that that would be the true emotion that Mario would feel, but obviously that's only my own perspective.
Yep, he heard about my rep and now he wants a bit of me! Hahahah

Obviously, wishful thinking on your part I think. mario seems to be having a whale of a time since leaving big brother, parties, music videos, social events ,charity football games, radio (yep radio work!) hanging out with his friends, I suppose if anyone is envious it's me of him

Could you send us the links for the radio broadcasts ... I know I am not alone in saying that we would genuinely love to listen to those ... thanks Laura ...

We can add Ben's links ... they were all somewhere else ... we could sort it out pretty quickly if you can't locate them there ...

It will be very interesting to hear the radio work ... I am looking forward to it ...

It's my opinion, not wishful thinking.

I think you may have misinterpreted the entire ethos behind the thread.

We aren't referring to who has the better social life and who they are hanging out with. Deary deary me. That's almost on the same grounds as suggesting fans as jealous of Mario and Ben having friends!

The basis upon which the discussion was founded was:-

Now Ben is guesting on radio shows, is on Celebrity Coach Trip and is involved in all sorts of other work and avenues: I cannot help feel that Mario is completly eaten up with jealousy in Ben's success (before and after the BB experience).

What are your thoughts.....

Maybe Ben does the radio stuff for fun? He certainly sounds like he enjoys it when he's on the radio.

Ah right. I see. You don't know the name of the radio station, and you don't have links either. Not much of a fan really.

What work related matters, you know, things that generate money in order for one to survive, has Mario taken part in since leaving the BB House. Anything on a comparitive basis - something that constitutes making a living - via media outlets or otherwise. Anything at all?

I ask as if there is very little to go on, it may be one of the reasons that Mario took Ben's decision not to remain in contact so badly and why there may be the perception that envy may be a part of that.

I think the very salient point you continually keep missing, is that it provides exposure, which in turn, may generate further types of work.

As for you imagining Mario would dismissing it - Mario certainly would not look down his nose at anyone, far less Ben for appearing on a 'reality tv game show'. I knowthat for absolute certaintly. Why am I so sure.

Because that precisely is what BB is - and Mario was desperate to not only be in the show, but to STAY in it (as shown by his bedroom ranting tantrum when he was nominated).

Therein lies the reason for why I think Mario would be at best, a little envious - at worst, very jealous - of Ben.

Gaydio was the radio station refered to.

Mario has appeared at a few parties like PAs also at 2 gay pride events, plus the music video mentioned, he may or maynot have been paid for any or all of these, but the fee for 3 or 4 PAs when BB was popular was more than I earn in a year.

I was once locked in a house with a load of idiots ... trust me ... no one would want to have that experience ... no one but another idiot maybe ...

Ah wait ... did I hear aright ... ? there were television cameras on the coach ... ? there were television cameras in the house ... ?

Could THAT be what made all the difference ... I think I just might be onto something here ...

Okay. so now we have established you arent good at the fan stuff (but have spent pages and pages critisising 'us Ben supporters' with just about every personal insult under the sun), you can't provide any info on how well Mario is doing, don't know the name of anything he's done that constitutes earning a crust and making a decent living.

I didn't ask what his income was. I asked what types of work Mario may have been involved in - and I was specific - making mention of works as in 'to make money to survive upon' - as you started to bring comparisons as to who was out socialising, out partying and having a whale of a time into the equation - when that was not the fundamental issue of the thread.

Effectively you have nothing to back up your side of the debate in who may be more successful as far as 'work' is concerned, the very basis upon which the thread was made.

Please tell me you have something more viable to offer?

Thanks for that Kim. But this clashes somewhat with what LauraC just said - she said that Mario only does media work for fun.

so we still have to establish whether he actually is earning any money - by moral means as opposed to bogus charity cons?

And neither does he (Ben) resort to bogus money making internet scams on the pretext that it's for charity the way Mario did.

Hardly the best way to advance one's career really.

Dammit. I must be gay.
Lip Service darling

According to our protagonist, I am also as gay as a hat.

Snogged my fair share of girls, when drunk and attention seeking in my early 20's. Had a flirt or three with the lesbians and bisexuals I knew at the time.

That's it. No more straight sex for me. Marriage is over. I obviously don't fit the stereotype of your average married woman. Now who's gonna break this to my adoring husband for me. Moleyo, want to do the honours ?

How dare he be happy without ben in his life!
Excellent post.
Mario communicates, Mario listen to the people who talk to him, Mario is still the boy next door he was before he went into the Big Brother house.
While all informations Ben fans get are not from him, they are transited over another person or while he's doing his little Radio Shows, but also there, he does not talk to the people who praise him like a the messiah of Big Brother.. I guess he just gives a rats arse.
You complain about Mario being on Twitter and Facebook or Twitcam, but I bet if he would, all of a sudden the "haters" of this communication platforms would join quicker as it takes to say "Ben"

You could only be jealous of something you want to have but cant get...
Mario is not keen on being further on TV (being a part of Big Brother was his dream, not being on TV)
He also does not have any interested in becoming a Radio moderator... So why should he be jealous? He has made friends with other Housemates, like Ben... No need for jalousie He get's invited to party's, events, Video shoots (also BB ones, where Ben was not asked to take part)... He is unemployed, but he has money (and it is nobody's business why he has it) , so he doesn't need to care about getting a job - As simple and easy as that.
Again, why on earth should he be jealous of Ben???

If I count how often Corin and Andrew have met with Mario in the last weeks... But like you said, it is not a competition.
