Celebrity Big Brother 2007

[BEARBOT]

does anyone like/sympathise with jackiey? i think she acts as extreme as she does cos of long term serious addiction to booze or drugs ..she was even asking "BB" for her medication..what is that about? i hope she isnt being denied her chemical coping crutch by "BB" just to make some good car crash tv...i would like to see jackiey voted off..i dont feel sorry for her "victims" either..

they are all paid well to be there and all want the money/attention,only with ken russell is it a puzzle why he chose to appear he is old and in poor health..he doesnt want to revive his career and he cant be that broke can he? guess he did it "for the experience"

that donny only wanted to get publicity so he could organise a big gig for his band..he probably wasnt even "really drunk" when he entered the house..he just play acted to get cred with young rock fans..he's oxbridge educated and peaches geldofs bf..wow just like old sid vicious eh? the programme is VERY contrivived...

im away from Uk for 3 months as of wed so i wont be watching..
might be checking this thread a bit while away but hoping not to get too addicted..never been a "BB" fan..never liked it,finding the celeb one more interesting strangely

re jack..he did comment to jade"everyone here is so posh and good" in a semi angry voice but hasnt said anything eles to my knowledge.i expect he is there to do as jade tells him..hahaha

re jade..yes she isnt about to be offered mensa membership to be sure BUT she does play up the "dumb chav" routine.she pretended not to know the word "exculsive" or be able to pronounce it..yet when speaking to jermaine she could pronounce "tramatised" and used the word correctly..at least jade doesnt take herself seriously which is about the only positive thing you can say.

re leo..what a big baby,reacting like that to mild truthful criticism.you get the feeling he sees himself as being really significant and important..how sad is that? at his age! wake up and smell the coffee mate!
people didnt even take him seriously in the 70s for fucks sake..his music was the 70s equivilant of "steps", only he couldnt dance as well
the 2 from the boy/girl bands dont seem very interesting people but they appear to have perspective on what their "career in music" was about ( throwaway pop music)..unlike leo does

 

[Structaural]

It was a CBB joke - Jackiey asked Shilpa if she lived in a shack or a house....seriously....no idea (it's not that common a name ime either - but that's irrelevant - it's easy enough to get your head round if you just LISTEN FOR A MINUTE!).

She was like that character in Little Britain who can't understand the Indian woman.

 

[Orang Utan]

I once worked with a Turkish lad - when I first met him I asked his name and he said 'everyone calls me Sam', so I asked his real name and it was Said. FFS! The other staff found even that too difficult to pronounce - that's Leeds for you!

 

[foo]

haven't got round to watching this...so have Donny, Ken and Cleo all walked??

 

[danny la rouge]

Has Cleo really gone? That'd be a real shame.

I don't care enough about the others to carry on watching.

And I still wouldn't trust that journo.

 

[Strumpet]

Donny and Ken as far as I know.........I hope Cleo doesnt/hasnt!!

 

[Orang Utan]

Cleo's still in AFAIK - hang on, I'll go have a look

 

[Guineveretoo]

that donny only wanted to get publicity so he could organise a big gig for his band..he probably wasnt even "really drunk" when he entered the house..he just play acted to get cred with young rock fans..he's oxbridge educated and peaches geldofs bf..wow just like old sid vicious eh? the programme is VERY contrivived...

Is he really Oxbridge educated? That thought horrifies me, judging from his semi articulate interview on BBLB the other day.

Source!

 

[Strumpet]

Cleo's still in AFAIK - hang on, I'll go have a look

*crosses fingers*

 

[dolly's gal]

cleo's gone?!

 

[BEARBOT]

a freind of mine is a "BB" fan and he follows all the insider gossip..(sorry i dont know the source but will try to find out)
he told me donny is a student at cambridge(or until quite recently was) and dates peaches geldof..sorry i cant prove it..this info does ring true to me and peaches was interviewed as his "freind" after he left..well perhaps its not serious between them but she did talk about staying over at his place.. i guess he is just doing his mockney thing to appear "rock n roll" hahahaha he wont be the first

 

[foo]

cleo's gone?!

i hope not dolly, someone told me over the weekend that she had!

(i was a bit pissed at the time though...)

 

[Orang Utan]

*crosses fingers*

She's sat having a very jolly converstion with Shilpa. all smiles - I don't think she's planning on leaving

 

[BEARBOT]

cleo is probably the coolest/most genuine in there.
the a team guy seems alright too


if loads of people keep leaving do they get replaced or what

 

[Orang Utan]

if loads of people keep leaving do they get replaced or what

That's traditionally the case - it seems Dirk has replaced Ken as one of the 'family'

 

[foo]

oh good, she's still there. cheers OU

 

[Structaural]

Jackiey looks a bit like Charles Bronson in the morning: (moustache added

 

[Strumpet]

She's sat having a very jolly converstion with Shilpa. all smiles - I don't think she's planning on leaving

Yay!!

Thanks OU

 

[BEARBOT]

*shudders* at jackiey

I knew that he was romantically linked to Peaches Geldof, and I knew that he went to a Good School in Buckinghamshire, but I really hope that he didn't pass the Oxbridge exams!

 

[BEARBOT]

well im sure he acted differently at the entrance interview to cambridge than he did when he entered the "BB" house ..IMHO he was just playing the part of how he thinks a rock star should act,i dont think it was "the real donny" at all,
he played up big so people would talk about him..his band is aimed at young kids..they love a "rebel"

 

[Guineveretoo]

I was referring to his interview with Dermot O'Leary which was shown at the weekend, and during which Donny was polite and calm (well, he didn't swear, anyway), but not exactly articulate....

 

[exosculate]

I knew that he was romantically linked to Peaches Geldof, and I knew that he went to a Good School in Buckinghamshire, but I really hope that he didn't pass the Oxbridge exams!

Why do you hope that?

 

[Guineveretoo]

She's sat having a very jolly converstion with Shilpa. all smiles - I don't think she's planning on leaving

Surely Leo is the next one likely to walk out?

 

[Orangesanlemons]

Leo needs the money too much to walk, Jo is in the same boat. By the by, what happened to the charity element this year? More to the point, has this affected the dynamics inside the house? People are far more willing to accept being made to look stupid if they know they're contributing to a good cause or being some kind of 'ambassador' for their nominated causes - this year they seem to have their teeth gritted as they wait for the big pay-off on day 23. Very poor.

Anyway, as usual Grace Dent sums things up to perfection on her CBB Blog. *insert heart smiley here*

 

[bellator]

So Donny gets no money at all, just what he makes of the back of it?

 

[Guineveretoo]

Why do you hope that?

Because it would disappoint me to know that someone who can come across as being as poorly educated and close to inarticulate as Danny was in the interview with Dermot O'Leary could pass the Oxbridge entrance exams.

 

[Donna Ferentes]

Not me it wouldn't.

 

[Guineveretoo]

The charities benefit (in some small way) from the phone votes. The housemates are paid a fee. I have no idea what clauses there are about how much they get if they walk or climb off set, which is what Donny and Ken have done.

However, I do remember Germain Greer saying that she had found a clause which meant that, so long as she made herself available for the shows, including the final night, she would still get paid. This was her stated reason for still turning up for the final, even though she hated BB.

I haven't heard her stated reason for turning up on BBLB the other day, though. Presumably, she doesn't hate BB quite as much as she once did

 

[Guineveretoo]

Not me it wouldn't.

Ah, but did you go to Oxbridge?

ETA Actually, I think you did, didn't you? I seem to recall that you were in Cambridge some years after I had left uni, but before I had left Cambridge city!
