In fact, it's really important to have these great actors who can play those roles and NOT stand out, in order to maintain believability whilst not drawing attention away from the main focus characters.

I mean, on the flipside, there are TONNES of "Hollywood Stars" who are horribly bad actors and are there either for looks, or because of a "lucky break", or because despite not having great acting abilities they have charisma and screen presence.

I see what you mean,but I would say he is an A lister compared to the housemates that are in there.
