Celebrity Big Brother

Celebrity Big Brother's finale is on tonight... I'm afraid to admit that I'm addicted (this may be only due to the fact that it is on ALL the time, if not BB, than a show talking about BB or a show talking about BB talking about BB... with only 5 channels, perhaps it dictates our viewing more than we think. Yeah, go with that Ryan.

Already voted off (For pics and more details)

  • Page 3 girl Jodi Marsh was first to go
  • "slept with someone famous so I am famous" Faria Alam went next
  • Actress and just like a mum Rula Lenska went next
  • Respect Party Member of Parliament George Galloway was voted out 4th with 64% of the vote
  • In a surprise double eviction, NBA star Dennis Rodman was voted off 5th, behind George

Left in the House for the Public to vote on:

  • Non celebrity Chantelle Hougton
  • Welsch rapper, Maggot
  • TV personality/entertainer Michael Barrymore
  • Lead singer of Dead or Alive, Pete Burns
  • Lead singer/guitarist in the band Ordinary Boys, Preston
  • (Harvard-educated) Actress and Model, from Baywatch, Traci Bingham

Money is on Preston, he's the pretty one who hasn't pissed off too many people. I think Chantelle, who is the only non-celebrity, has a chance because of it. Pete also has a chance only because he's been the most 'entertaining', but he's been absolutely awful, mean-spirited and cruel. If he wins, it just may say something about the world we live in. I wouldn't mind seeing Maggot, Preston or Traci, they've contributed, they've entertained, they've kept their heads above the scandal fray; but, that may not be the criteria the British public use for voting. With 6 left, votes will be close.

Unfortunately (or fortunately) Tim and I will be out tonight celebrating Paul 's(of Paul and Kim) birthday party. Dinner at the Centraal and drinks at the Pear Tree.
