Default Big celebrity
I can't believe they got such a big celeb.

He was so huge in America.


And Gangster's Paradise was classic.

I don't know how they managed to get someone who has won a grammy, and I don't think he is being paid much either.

People say he is a one hit wonder and while I agree to an extent, one hit wonders tend to be acts with no credibility where the song is cheesy and long forgotten. Gangsters Paradise on the other hand still gets constant airplay and is very much brilliant.

Coolio was big for one song and that was 13 years ago. He's not a celebrity. He's on the Z-List like Verne.

The Jacksons are nobodies. They're also Z-List, except for Janet, and Michael is the C-List.

LaToya had a Psychic Friends Network, and aerobics videos in the early 90s. She's always been a joke.

LaToya is probably considered the biggest celebrity due to having the Jackson name. But Coolio is a massive star in America - perhaps more so before though, and that was self-made. Perhaps now that it's died down and he's older, he saw making himself known to UK audiences as a good step.

LOL the jacksons are nobodies. i dont think so maybe you are a nobody but dont say that about the jacksons. they are the most famous musical family in the world.

you must come out with the biggest BS if u say michael is a c list. get your facts right before you make stupid comments like that.
he is the most famous person around the world ( along those lines) source is guinesss world records 2008.
go check n weep ok

"I thought "Nahh he won't go in, no way!" when I first heard the rumour...

So when I saw his VT I just went like "..........." & suddenyl kind of went into hysterics mode because they managed to bag such a legend!

His VT was awesome too!

lets be fair none of them are really big celebs at the moment they might have been in their day but they are all basically z listers who will be using the bb platform to help whatever project they are working on at the moment weather that be music, book, tv show, perfume etc and all it will do is cement most of their places in the 2009 panto list
