    Slightly off-topic, but seeing as we're talking about Levi....

    I was thinking he's got a really great voice for reggae. I know that he's made millions from the sauce now, but surely he could have been a recording artist, something I assume he originally wanted to do?

    Levi is already a well known Reggae artist. This extract is from his Wiki page:


    "Roots has performed with James Brown and Maxi Priest and was nominated for a Best Reggae Act MOBO award in 1998. He was a friend of Bob Marley when he resided in the UK and performed "Happy Birthday Mr. President" for Nelson Mandela in 1992 on his trip to Brixton. He gained widespread fame after appearing on the UK television programme Dragons' Den, where he gained £50,000 funding for his Reggae Reggae Sauce."

    He's probably best known for his creation 'Reggae Reggae Sauce'... available at a supermarket near you.
    He's made a fortune from the stuff.

    I watched him on Dragons Den, bet him and his sponsor have made a few bob since then.

    In the Daily Mail's fake pr story about Gina, she said her bf's family sold a brand of sauce that was available in Harrods, so she knew he had money.

    I did wonder if the bf is related to Levi Roots, and that he and Gina are aready acquainted.

    Maybe. Would have been funny if he'd said, "your boyfriend needs to get out of the music business."

    Levi should not wear all that jewellery on his hands when he is preparing food. It's unhygienic and could even be dangerous.

    The HMs did know who he was, before they were let out into the garden from the window, they were shouting and screaming "its Levi Roots".

    8:11pm: The HMs are still talking about Levi like he's some manner of mythical authority figure. Like Gandalf or Obi Wan Kenobi.

    I think they may lose weight - it seems easier for Joe as he's already a couple of stone lighter than Jack. I predict at least one of them will lose their virginity within 2 weeks of leaving the BB house, not that we will know :D (thank the lord lol)

    With a bee or a wasp? Which do you reckon?

    I really like his name. There is something very rhythmic and magical about the name Levi Roots...especially when said in a Jamaican accent. :)

    I did a double take when he said that. He'd just had a Caribbean meal, and by the look of the kitchen there seemed to be plenty of leftovers, and the glutton wanted a Chinese meal as well? They really need the help of a good dietician when they get out or diabetes/heart problems could well come calling. Here's a thought for them, if they were still hungry then why not eat some of the fruit left over, actually having said that didn't Sophie mention they had clotted cream and she was going to mix some sugar with it to sweeten it?:eek:

    Sam's reaction to Jack (or was it his brother?) said it all.

    After stuffing himself at the BBQ, he could still ram a Chinese takeaway down his gob! :eek:
