Just wondering if that has contributed to it being cut even shorter for the second summer in a row.

It's has a feel of a highbrid celebrity one anyway .

The likes of lateysha the valleys on MTV past surely isn't doing this for just the daily appearance money.

Likewise on a show on MTV again with Vicky Pattison will almost certainly be commanding a fee.

Ifs it's ending in three and a half weeks a non descript midweek finish it will mean something like just seven weeks it's been so there is obviously money involved somewhere

Paid as celebrities?

As far as I know, housemates are always given some sort of wages for appearing on the show to cover for taking time off work. No amount of money would make somebody a celebrity though.

Given fees as if it was a celebrity bb

Yeah but it was or has been a miniscule basic weekly(possibly daily) amount .
Celebs get a one off fat cheque that runs into funny figures at times .

This civilian one is just not civilian . Too many very minor celebs for it to be classed as civilian .

I wouldn't be surprised if Marco, Lateysha and Natalie were paid a celebrity-style appearance fee. Possibly Andrew too.

No way any of those auditioned.
