Why do the "celebs" keep pulling out?

Some of them aren't ready to accept their z-list status yet?

Could it be that they can't be bothered with the 'BB is evil' theme?

Maybe it's not evil enough - IACGMOOH offers the opportunity to sleep in a jungle with snakes and spiders, starve, be victimised by the public to the point of mental breakdown whilst watching one contestant have their husband flown in, and a pair of hobbits who, despite all available common sense, are sufficiently famous to not have to lower themselves to do this sort of show, are smiling and pointing out that your lunch is wriggling. Yet they have enough interest to do two ratings-winning shows a year.

Theoretically, in order to catch up, Celeb BB needs to focus more on mentally fragile and potentially sectionable celebs - there's always a good supply of drunks and junkies but let's not forget the schizophrenics, manic depressives and obsessive compulsives too - and somehow exploit their tenuous grip on sanity by promising them a chance to recapture past public adoration in exchange for a fortnight of harsh humiliation capturing them coming apart at the seams in excruciating detail, followed by a failed novelty record and the everlasting bile of the 3am girls.

On his official site, David Icke denies he's appearing, and says
Quote:
“I am up to here with the pseudo-celebrity b****cks that infests television, magazines and newspapers. Everywhere it is ‘celebrity' this, ‘celebrity' that. The cult of celebrity is the new religion which, like the old, is designed to keep the masses mesmerised by irrelevant trash while the global fascist state is constructed unseen all around them.”

When even David Icke has too much self-respect to appear, Celeb BB surely seems to have a real problem.

OK, well, let's think about this Victoria woman

She's obviously touting herself for TV presenting jobs.

She strings along celeb BB for a month to get her name in the papers

Anyone thinking of employing her, like VH1 say, has to wonder how much they will have to pay her once she's been on BB and all over the tabloids for a month and gets lots of job offers after the show.

So their hand is forced and they offer her the job now at a cheaper rate.


She was using the show as a bargaining chip.............

You've got to be careful these days. You never know what you might catch, or where the next claim of rape will come from.

An unfortunate choice of words in title thread, don't you think!
