Big Brother Betting Odds: Dear God, Who Are These Awful Gits?

by Stuart Heritage

Well, that’s it. That’s summer done. Big Brother 9 started last night, which means we’ve got three months of idiots screaming about nothing to put up with.

And, lord, are there ever a lot of Big Brother housemates this year – 16 on opening night alone. This year Big Brother has gone for a Zero Tolerance theme, so there are prisons and different standards of bedrooms and people have to pay to use hair straighteners and whatnot. But that can unfold in the days to come. What about this year’s batch of gibbering plebs?

Well, here are the first-night Big Brother betting odds for all six million new housemates to win, with help from Paddy Power…

Chanelle & Ziggy Don’t Realise That Nobody Cares Any More

by Stuart Heritage

Well, OK, that’s a misleading headline – Chanelle certainly realises that nobody cares about her any more.

On Sunday it was revealed that former Big Brother housemate Chanelle Hayes’ attempts to become a pop star had died a death, with her new single I Want It limping into the charts at 63. However, while most people have reacted to this news in the correct way – with a disinterested shrug -Chanelle’s Big Brother ex-boyfriend Ziggy Zichman has publicly called her efforts ‘laughable.’

Ziggy, of course, is an expert on the music industry because he was in Northern Line and their last single got all the way to number 27. Anyway, that’s not the point. The point is this – shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up. Shut up.

Hooray! Another Reality Star’s Career Is Set To Implode.

by Matthew Laidlow

When summer comes thundering round, we all know what it’s set to bring – ice cream, crappy weather and another soul-sapping series of Big Brother.

In the beginning, Big Brother was a crazy experiment which for once didn’t involve cutting people open or giving them drugs which would result in the growth of an extra eye. Instead, it was set to monitor the results of living in a controlled human environment. Or as most viewers interpreted it, a chance to maybe see some people have sex. But as time has gone on, the experimental phase has vanished and contestants have used Big Brother as a platform to launch a career. None are ever successful and, brilliantly for us, we get to see them crash and burn.

It’s now the turn of Chanelle Hayes.

Davina McCall Still Not Leaving Big Brother

by Stuart Heritage

To all intents and purposes, Davina McCall is Big Brother – she’s the friendly face who only has to shout a lot and ask breathtakingly awful exit interview questions.

So if Davina McCall ever left Big Brother, the show would obviously fall to pieces. Well, either that or Alexa Chung would instantly start presenting it and nobody would really notice the difference. One or the other.

Anyway, despite a whirlpool of rumours to the contrary, Davina McCall has publicly stated that this won’t be her last season of Big Brother. Which is good for Davina McCall, but you know what that means? It means that this won’t be the last season of Big Brother, either. In fact, it’ll probably go on forever. If you need us, we’ll be crying and drinking bleach in a corner somewhere.

When PR Stunts Go Wrong: Chanelle’s Rubbish Sex Tape

by Matthew Laidlow

When the words ‘sex’ and ‘tape’ collide, you tend to quite quickly get people’s attention. Throw in the word ‘celebrity’ and everyone’s hooked.

And when we heard that another sex tape featuring a celebrity had surfaced, we got ready to squint at the pixelated shagfest – except one of the core ingredients that makes up a sex tape was missing.

The vital thing for a celebrity sex tape is er… a celebrity. Sadly, rejected reality show contestants who model themselves on rubbish pouty pop stars don’t count. Besides, anyone living in the UK will have already seen Chanelle from Big Brother’s tits in most copies of the Daily Star, Daily Sport or Nuts/Zoo magazine. But that hasn’t stopped Chanelle from making the least convincing sex tape in the history of the world. Yes, it’s after the jump…

Bez: Bankrupt Again

by Stuart Heritage

A word to our younger readers – you’re probably not going to get too rich being a boggle-eyed dancer for a touring nostalgia band.

That’s smart advice, but it’s a bit too late for Bez from Happy Mondays. Bez has just been declared bankrupt, you see. For the second time in four years.

This bankruptcy will be worse for Bez than the first time though – he memorably managed to claw his way out of debt last time by winning Celebrity Big Brother. But there aren’t really any reality TV shows for Bez to bail himself out with this time. True, there’s that Oliver Twist talent contest, but there’s only room for one odd-looking, boggly-eyed weirdo there, and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s got that all sewn up.
