I'm not disagreeing with you but when did they disrespect them?
Gary Busey was a real celebrity and he won (but he was treated like crap by some of the other HMs)

But we have had proper celebrities (see below)

Seriously, you don't know:
Michael Madsen (long list of film and tv on IMDb) most famous for Reservoir Dogs (Mr. Blonde).
Dennis Rodman
Gary Busey
LaToya Jackson, Jermaine Jackson (ok, he not the biggest name but still he is a Jackson)
Janice Dickinson
Coolio
Verne Troyer
Heidi Fleiss (maybe not a celebrity but notorious like Kato Calin [sp?])
Tara Reid
Evander Holyfield
David Gest and more....
I thought one of the Baldwin brothers went in one year but I'm not sure.
They use to have real celebrities.
I will watch this one like it is a civilian BB and I loved the most recent civilian BB. I can understand the moaning about this group of "celebrities" since I've only heard of like 3 of them but I'm still happy to watch it because I like seeing how the people mix/interact.
