Of all the people Disney could have picked, why him? ridiculous.

Disney had a video of him on their Facebook but due to all the negative comments it seems to have been removed.

Just go on Twitter and search 'Alex Cannon Disney' and you'll see some promo pics.

Hardly gives off the family friendly vibe that Disney strives for.

Disney paid for it, there was an advert made and everything. Of course it's to promote Disney World, why else would they have done it? Companies don't pay celebrities to make promotional material for nothing now do they.

I was online shopping for some hoodies and he was one of the models too. Seems like he is doing a lot of this type of work. Fair do's I guess. They probably pay a decent bit of money for just standing there modelling trackies.

As for Disney, I wouldn't go far to say that Disney was "family friendly", in fact I heard horror stories about working for Disney from someone I know who quit. They were monsters.

I guess that's what you get when working for some huge companies.

I had to Google him as I'd totally forgotten the name and I watched nearly every episode of BB17. Surely you can't edit that much dullness.

No - so it may not be because he is not one.

Lovely! He's Dopey, she's Goofy and most of us don't give a Donald Duck.

The human equivalent of Tramadol. He isn't even attractive and he's certainly not marketable. They should stick with Mickey.

The real winners of the show will prove the test of time!
He was well liked in the house and respected . There was a lot we didn't see.
I'm not prepared to announce someone dull on 1 hour of editing!
There was a lot of dislike on this forum for one or two of the guys .
Only time will tell who makes the most of their time there and who fades out of sight!
The guys in the house got on really well and didn't on the whole play the game big brother plays of having sex all the time!

In fairness, I soon discovered why Alex was supposedly like he was in the BB house. it seemed that his ex had just given birth before entering the house and while perhaps some may question why he went in the house under those circumstances.

One could also assume that something like that would affect some one in such a way in which they may come out as quiet and withdrawn.

At the same time the BB producers are constantly editing, so some come out in a better light than others.

In truth since Alex left BB he has done alright for himself, and seems to be gaining alot of work, all be it if you have a body such as his that would also help.

Sure he was quiet and withdrawn but that didn't stop his silly treatment of Evelyn. He wasn't quiet when him and Jackson were taking the piss out of her.

I loved the series but one of the highlights is the fact that Evelyn got more votes to win than Alex especially after that final week. The fact that the person who was supposed to do well (perhaps win) was beaten by the girl who was initially painted as a villain (as Georgina and Jackson were initially faves) is brilliant.

I never thought Alex would win.I wasn't even a supporter. I'm simply saying none of us had. a true picture ! to condense 24 hrs. until 1 hour with no live feed.
None of the clips of Alex and Jackson where shown .Apart from Laura Evelyn and Ryan and ultimately Hughie.After Georgina left none of the men wanted a relationship.It was obvious.
Of the females Alex got on best with Latesha and was very comfortable cuddling her.
He only went into his shell with the girls when only Laura and Evelyn where left!
As to who gets the most out of Bb?
Who are we to to judge?
Publicists and promotes will decide who's marketable!
That's what I mean the true winners will be the ones who gain something from bb . Doesn't matter what any of us think Alex has started just fine.
Doesn't matter that most of us only put a couple of votes for our favourites or some on here went mad with votes to inflate someone's position.
Time will tell!

I missed launch night and the first day or so .Hughie seemed the favourite most of the time and apart from his relationship with Ryan who has done him no favours had the potential to do well.

I'm talking about when he entered. He was hyped up. He was high up on the polls and was bookies fave for weeks for no reason whatsoever. I think initially he was the person that C5 had in mind to "push" later on in the series as he would fit in the criteria for a winner looks-wise, plud he was Vicky's friend. But he became so invisible, not even c5 could try and make him winning material.

It's odd to think that he went under the radar completely until the last week when he was shown more... and people didn't like his treatment of Evelyn.

Alex was never up in a VTE, and only survived one VTS (Ryan's eviction), but there were rumours he was close to being in that B3. Twitter did mention that they had the leak go like this:

(Andy immune)

Hughie
Jason
Jackson
Jayne
Evelyn
Alex

Ryan
Laura
Sam

The only reason he wasn't up for a vote was he was never nominated!
Digital spy on this main forum on one hour editing didn't like him not being interested in Evelyn.

A lot of us thought it was her who looked all!

I always thought Georgina was an early favourite .
Then it seemed to be Hughie all the way!
That's who I thought they wanted to win.
They even had an Irish theme on the final night!
BB were disappointed with the winner but on this occasion I think the public voted for who they wanted.Though Hughie may have been at a disadvantage with Ireland not voting.
None of us know what went on in the house when they stopped the live streaming!

I never thought Alex would have won, like my post has stated, he seems to be doing well for himself at the moment. With regards to his treatment of Evelyn i would agree with you on that, he certainly didn't do himself any favours.

Although at the same time Evelyn shouldn't have thrown herself at him like she did. Anyhow we all knew that these two wouldn't get it on out of the house.

In Evelyn's defense, sure she came on a it strong, but she was told by others that he was interested. And he never actually told her "no nothings going on". He just sat there gormlessly, saying nothing whilst she was talking to him.

OK fair, lets say we don't blame him for not putting an end to it, BUT the worst of it was after the court room task. Evelyn cried over what Georgina said, Alex literally couldn't give two s**** about the fact she was crying, he ignored her. And then had the audacity to just sit there whilst she was going to say sorry to HIM. It was great seeing him evicted over her the next day.

That bloke is an idiot. But good for him for doing well for himself.

I very much doubt he's an idiot.He wouldn't have been accepted by the four other men none of whom were fools.
Laura egged Evelyn on! Latesha fancied Alex and Alex was relaxed with her but she said to Evelyn she would step aside for her as Evelyn was probably better looking and would fancy her.Jackson wanted her off his back and said the same.Alex not wanting to offend a young girl didn't know what to do!
The number of people on this forum that voted for Evelyn was unbelievable and I hope their money isn't wasted and we hear some news of how she's doing.
Andy and Jackson are doing well and I would expect Jayne to make a living as she had quite a lot about her.
I hope the others have some benefit from the house .
Georgina is doing well too with quite a lot of work appearing.
I'd like to hear any news of the others.

Evelyn's doing very well judging by what I see on Snapchat.

What makes you think he was hired because of being on BB, and not just for being a model?
