Default You have to give him credit.

John actually researched everything about Big Brother UK and he's not even from here.

The guy didn't even know if he would be getting in on launch but still researched it.

Some people may say he did that to play a game, but tbh even if that was the case... Is that so wrong?
This IS a game show after all.

In my eyes, I think the reason he researched BBUK on Wiki so many times was so he could get a basic understanding on what the show is usually like and there's nothing wrong with that.

Live Feed watchers will know that he knows so much about the UK BB and he isn't even from here, I think that's really good that he took the time to go and find out everything about it.

And you also have to give the dude credit for actually flying all the way to the UK and stuff, not knowing he would get into the house.. all for a reality show.

I would do the same thing tbh, as many big fans would but it is for some reason seen as 'sad' especially when Corin picked on him for it

Fair play to him.
The man is a legend.

Have to agree JJ is the BIGGEST gameplayer in the house, closely followed by the thumbsucker. I have absolutely no problem with gameplayers, but sick to death of JJ&J fans being totally blind to it when they are so blatantly being played by these two FAKES.

Sick to death of some of the fans of JJ&J, not every one.

the OP is right.

I really think that JJ has done a lot of homework on the prog as most of us would do if going on it.

My only objection is his CONSTANT reminders of how well he knows the show and his constant moaning about x, y or z playing the game and being false cos thats what the nasties usually say all the time while making out that the ONLY way to be "real" is to be bitchy and nasty

says YOU? Ben is the biggest Faker of all time haha! he knows exactly what he's doing, acting.

goes round and kisses everyones ass and then bitches to em about other housemates.

BEN Quotes:
''i mean, i love the guy but he is soooo argumentative''
'i mean, i like the girl but she is so god damn selfish''

LOL, anyone else notices how sly he is? (Ben)

On the other hand I agree with OP, JJ has done his homework and it's paid off.

You say he "researched" it like he might actually have researched it in the real sense of the word. I doubt John James is any kind of researcher... but the funniest bit was "The man is a legend". A LEGEND? Are you sure?

Crab Eyes is playing a great game:

Crying at the right moments
pretending to doesn't care about winning
attaching himself to Josie

He is very shrewd.

Well said Patrick. He was even naming housemates with Mario the other day.

I don't see the big problem with having a gameplan seeing as essentially, Big Brother is a gameshow. Why is it looked down on?

There is no problem with it as such,but the hypocrite is pulling other people up for doing the same in a derogatory way.

It's not the first time a housemate has behaved this way, it's the nature of the show. Mood-swings happen all the time in the house, from bitching to paranoia, from fake friendships to fake romances.

Is he pretending, or is this pretence his game plan?


Who can be really sure what any-one's game plan in the house really is?

It's not necessarily because he wanted to play the game, If I applied for something like that I'd just be very curious to know exactly what I was getting in to and to have some idea of what might happen. That's just human nature. People who say they never watched it before and don't have a clue what it's about are either idiots or liars imo.

Wonder what sort of visa he got to get into the country and do BB? To get a working visa you have to bring a substantial amount of money with you and I doubt they'd let you do it on a holiday visa.

He has a British passport as both his parents are English so he would need no visa

Seriously?? Even if you've never been in the country - if your parents were born here you automatically get a british passport?
