Seems to be more of a bitch about Nadine than a comment about BB.

aye need to get back on track

Nadine is D-list at best.

[Brother Leon]

There are A Listers that would make great value tbf. Can you imagine Money Mayweather in there or someone along those lines who is huge, but doesn't give a **** what people think. They just tend to bring in singers/actors who are ridiculously dull.


And yeah. Nadine isn't A list. A Spice Girl I would agree with.

who??

[mrmattybeck1]

Shes right most the time they end up to be really dull

[Gstar]

She's right. The only big stars who have actually delivered were the Shannon twins and Speidi. I would say Michael Madsen but Denise was the one who made him relevant

The Shannon twins and Speidi? They weren't A-list much less big "stars".

Coolio was the "best value for money" bigger name they've ever had in there... absolute gold.

There has never been an A-list celebrity in the house. Mainly Z's and D's, a couple of C's and maybe an ex B or two... but nothing close to A-list.

There are hardly any UK singers who qualify as A-list... let alone a member of a dead girl band. The "biggest name" from Girls Aloud is Cheryl and she is barely scraping the bottom of the B-list barrel.

I think they seem to like to just skip over the whole concept of B and C though... you're either Z, D or suddenly A in Big Brother world.

In reality... an A-list star, you're looking at the PROPER big leagues... people CURRENTLY pulling in massive Box Office figures or huge on the "world stage"... e.g. Will Smith, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, Brad Pitt... etc. or your older relics like Arnie, Sly Stallone (not Jackie... haha), Harrison Ford, Robert DeNiro, people who might not be particularly active now but were HUGE in their day.

Lindsay Lohan being invited along to a party with these guys? ... Really? Maybe as some sort of circus act where they load her up with vodka and cocaine for giggles but that's about it. Lindsay Lohan is not an A-list celebrity. She's currently hovering around C and was never above B.

Every year they do the same thing. They put the rumour machine in full tilt and drop names all over the place to get the hype, then on opening night, we see the same dullard, broke and desperate wannabees marching in. We are then hooked and make the best of it but the show has its marketing department at full tilt for 2 weeks before the show starts. It only takes a couple of tweets and a misplaced phone call to send some of our brothers on here into a tail spin and the ruse is perpetuated.

Everyone thinks that the huge amounts of money spent on these celebs is phenomenal but when you split it down to shows done and hours of viewing, they are gotten cheap as chips and have all kinds of after work or appearances written into their deals. CBB and BB don't loose money, they rake it in at the behest of the numpties that appear there for our viewing pleasure and we all swallow their story, bad editing, force fed media hype and crap production every single year as it is our drug of choice and we love it.

Regardless of her 'list' Nadine would be great value in there. You know she's got mega issues with the other girls and has already been quite outspoken about the break-up so hopefully she'd air that dirty laundry.
It'll never happen though.
As far as big names go, I'd say Vinnie was maybe the biggest name and he was absolutely dire in there.

[Rob!]

So she's basically trying to tell us that the line up for this series is ****e

[sampvt]

The given perception of what an 'A' lister can bring to the show is fatally flawed. These people have managers, gurus and marketing teams behind them and nobody will go on there and dish the dirt just for a lowly reality show. anyway when did Nadin hit that starry height, Cheryl is borderline 'A' listing but she is miles ahead of Nads anyway. If Nads goes in she will act all prim and proper and drift into an also ran. 'A' listers have never done well on there. Get Russell Brand in there with some dozy blonde wannabees and an open bar then see what happens. If that's what floats your boats.

I mean i agree, to a certain extent, but can they please refrain from putting in totally unkown page 3 models then?.. with no personality near them
