Perhaps there is not a great crossover from strictly to bb as opposed to BB/xfactor/jungle

It seems so. I was surprised because I would have though Kristina was possibly the most recognisable of the SCD pro dancers. Not least because she was part of one of the show's 'moments' which led to a press conferenece which means she appeared on BBC main national news bulletins and Newsnight.

Take that with a grain of salt... or, more likely, with a ton of salt.

Many restaurant businesses take on a celebrity as a "part owner" so they can draw in the ignorant, idiot crowds for as long as the celebrity is in the news. I don't doubt he has $$ in his bank accounts, because the US celebrity fandom is the biggest pool of idiots who are happy to give their $$ to anyone with a connection to a celebrity name.

This particular idiot is just a waste of bio-matter. He's a leech on a celebrity product of worthless media that appeals to the mindless.

As someone said, no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.

Not to be defending him, but jesus. He only wanted to know what her "celebrity" was from. He didn't ask who was she that she should be sharing his space.

And from the blank look on his face, I'm not sure he knew exactly what position a "manager" was on a "football" team.

And as reprehensible as I find the show he's on, he is on a show.


So that's a reason to be hating on his daughter's friend, who she met many years after, not only the trial, but his death?

Oh,please. You all are the ones that invited him to be on your stupid show.

Nonsense. That's just his accent. David has much the same accent.

Are you joking? He's an angry little lackey, you can practically see the steam coming out of his ears at times. Any money he has he got from Mum and Dad and sucking up to the Kardashians on telly. This lack of any skill or talent whatsoever is probably what makes him angry all the time because he doesn't have good looks to fall back on either. At least Angie managed a proper rock star.
He is the classic obnoxious American, loud, boastful and boring. The naked greed on the faces of those twits settled on the bed for his boasting session makes me want to puke.

So this Kardashian bloke has a fair few haters already from his career so far. Like the majority this is the first I know of him. I have no doubt he will turn out to be lying, cheating scum, vile, etc. For now, asking wtf does she do, when she herself has no clue, has been mildly amusing at most.

He created TheDishh.com and is the former CEO of CommandPR (very high end PR firm). He had his own E! series and also appeared in the Kardashians TV show. He also has a chain of restaurants in the US.

To me, he is by FAR the most famous person to walk in the house this year.

Hilarious! Because the intelligence of the British public is so much better than the Americans! The Brits love their trash just as much as the Yanks, if not more so!

And to be fair, football (soccer) is not a big thing in America compared to some of the other sports. He will know of David Beckham as a former footballer but would he know of any managers? Highly unlikely. Are managers even well known in the states like they are over here?

To be fair Sven Goran Ericsson would not be known to the average American .

I do think bb enjoy the American British mixing of cultures that's why they do it to see what happens.

Tiffany was quite smart she came down the stairs with original head bitcb type plan realised she was unknown to the uk based people and immediately dropped that idea

But is he a "celebrity" on his own or just by association ?

Never heard or seen any of this.
Never heard of him.
He's one of the least known to me.

LOL and I thought he was one of the actors on the Inbetweeners!

Goes to show doesn't it. Even now I couldn't tell you his name.

I too quite like mixing in US personalities (actually they don't have to be from the US - I mean anywhere that isn't here) because they do add another dimension. ( The reaction to Marmite being an example) I do however wonder about the representatives they choose. Not that I think they are being chosen to represent a nationality but they do give a slightly distorted window into the nations they come from.

I'm not a Brit. If I was in the CBB production team would have told them how irrelevant that stupid idiot is, unworthy of any attention. Maybe he's desperate and broke and pressured his manager to get him into the CBB house.

I'm not very familiar with Brit trash, but at least the bit that makes it over to the US is about Brit trash who actually do something trashy. This moron is not doing anything .... utter bio-waste.

That and the fact he's not a celebrity of course...and has a face that would frighten children at Halloween.

We didn't invite him...some silly bint who works for channel5 and loves all things Kardashian did.

Went on a bit of a catch up. Well I didn't last a whole ep. Caught that question. He's famous because he represents Kim and ye I know they say they are friends but from what I've seen of KUWTK he's more an agent than friend it's just they lost the difference when they went fame chasing.
Also what has he done to his face I don't remember him looking as bad as that and I've seen him in a few things
I watched his E show there was a reason it lasted 1 series and it's him he came across majorly unlikeable

I could have lived without ever having seen/heard of him.....It makes you wonder why he is on CBB, clearly not for the money.....

So the people who know of this dude, know what he's famous for, and what he has appeared in. Those of us that know of Nancy, had little idea, until she explained it so elegantly on the Graham Norton show.

Lol. Why was he "proper"? Because he was British? As offensive as you or I might find the Kardashians, surely you're not so naive as to not be aware of their status in the world of celebrity. I'd say it's higher than David Bowie ever reached.

Look, I don't know anything about the guy. I don't watch that stupid show. But I have read his background. And he seems to have handled publicity for some powerful people. Why is that any less of an accomplishment than Angie's?

As for "his boasting sessions"? Isn't that why he's even on the show? What do you think he's expected to do, show up and sit in a corner and say and do nothing? Come on, he's not British, you know.

Please. What of them are? A whole house full of nothings.

No, not at all. And one of the points I was trying to make is, he probably doesn't even equate someone being a "manager" to what we would call a "coach."

I seriously doubt that sports of any kind are in his realm of experience. Maybe tennis at the club with Mummy.
