Cant say I agree. Spencer will do his toothpaste ad and then what ? He has no star quality, simply something the advertisers can latch onto for a "joke" advert.....then what ? What happened to Darren and his chicken appeal ? Alex is already in advertising and long term it is his looks, image and appeal that will out. All this has done is probably expose him a little more widely though no doubt there will be an initial rush to have the guy in adverts. He could improve his long term success in modelling but only if his face is what people are looking for. As for Jade, comic value ? The only comic value she has is that people laugh at her rather than with her. Her biggest drawback is her inability to articulate and advertising wise, the only thing she would really be good for advertising is the need for elocution lessons. Certainly they will have the opportunity to make a bit of money afterwards but long term I doubt if any of them have enough "star quality" to maximise on the opportunities. Which of the original BB "stars" have stayed the distance and managed to make a real success of what opportunities they had ? And don't quote Brian to me as we have yet to see, though he may well prove to be the only one.

Star quality will out. People like Alex, Spencer and Jade will have advertisers and agents scrambling to employ them. Jade has the comic appeal of the woman in Driving School. Alex already has Brylcream beating a path to his door, and a bleach company is making the most of his hygiene obsession. Good luck to him. They've pounced on the man because he has "a hook" to identify him by.
Jonny on the other hand has demonstrated zilch personality in the house despite all his efforts to appear characterfull. It just isnt there. There may be some use for his feet in a fungal infection ad, but mark my word, whether he wins (and its a fair chance he will with the Sun and C4 doing their darndest for him), or not, his light will fade within days of appearing.
The world will see that the Emperor really does have no clothes on.]”
