I know Sam Pepper made over £1,000,000 through his Youtube career which started 2 months after he left BB, so he's almost definitely the most successful housemate in there for less than a month, but have there been any housemates more successful than him overall? If so, who?
Most successful housemates after BB?
1 of 4
Jade Goody
Chanelle Hayes
Imogen Thomas
Aisleyne Horgan Wallace
Craig Phillips
Allison Hammond
Josie Gibson
Makosi has done very well after BB, shes a star in Nigeria, and has her own talk show, so she's doing pretty well.
Brian Dowling did pretty well, as he actually presented the show, for two years.

What's a "Youtube career" when it's at home?
And how could you make £1 million at it?

He uploads short videos weekly to YouTube and gets paid through ad-revenue and sponsorships. He also owns a snapback business. You can see his YouTube channel at http://www.youtube.com/Sam and his stats at http://socialblade.com/youtube/user/OFFICIALsampepper

depends how you measure 'success'. I don't meausre success as how much money someone makes, but how much of a positive impact they make on society.
Jade's impact was nothing but negative

By far the most successful, most since have been trying to recreate her formula.

He is also planning to visit 119 countries to open it
And Craig Phillips actually gave away his £70,000 prize money to his friend's niece so she could gave an operation.

Neither would I, but in terms of success after BB, she got the most work and exposure out of it ........only my opinion of course

What a stupid reply that is.
Before she died she was a millionaire and, had she lived whould, I am sure have continued to do quite well.
We all know that she tried to "copy" Helen from BB2 and it worked because Jade was certainly anything but stupid and she invested in other things very well.
It would not have been in her plan to die.
Anna Nolan has a very successful tv and media career in Ireland
Brian Dowling is doing a pilot for a new game show

People always fight over these things (and tend to diminish the achievements of those they dislike). I think, a) we have to limit it to media success, and not try and discuss people who happen to be successful in completely different careers; and b) we have to overlook the fact that some media projects have been rubbish. I which case I will make a stab at putting them in order. (And I am inclined to treat Eire as if it was the UK even though it is a far smaller market.) I have missed out Deana because I'm not sure she actually gained anything at all by being in BB.

You have a good memory... I dont remember some of those names .. but would agree with Jade being the name most synonmous with BB although I wasn't a fan.

She made around £ 3 million to 5 million for her children before she dies IIRC, to bad according to the papers Mr Taxman grabbed back most of it.

Really ?
I would suggest you look up on how well she is doing - which is pretty good.
Alison Hammond(especially considering she only lasted a few weeks, which was a travesty)
Still hate Davina for revealing the voting percentages at the start which caused her to go
