Does anyone know if Imogen speaks Welsh? If she did, my Welsh mother would vote for her Of course, she doesn't watch BB so you can dismiss that one

She does:

But what will the next year hold for Miss Wales 2003, student Imogen Thomas, 20, a Welsh-speaker from Llanelli?

They hang around in clubs and keep bored businessmen entertained - dance with them, chat to them, persuade them to run up large bar bills, that sort of thing.

Bascially it's like being an escort. Ruth Ellis is the only (in)famous nightclub hostess I can think of offhand.

Linky about hostess bars.

I've had to pull this thread up from page 2 . Has the "appreciation" stopped already?

Linky about hostess bars.

There was a piece in the Times last week about a girl who was a hostess for a week. They have to encourage lonely men to buy overpriced drinks (Champagne costs £50 upwards) and they get a cut of the bar tab. The subtext behind it was that often the girls will go home with the men for paid sex.

Now under no circumstances am I saying this is what Imogen does, but it is very common in London Hostess Bars.

Certainly not.

Indeed, she continues to do an excellent job of appearing to be potentially a very good housemate (IMO) and of revealing forum attitudes.

Consider the thread They DO want wannabes.

In the first post, steve16 tells us:

I heard that a precise quote from the woman in charge of the London callbacks was: "We do not want wanabees". That made a lot of sense to me. Surely they don't want another Orlaith. But now it would appear that that is PRECISELY what they DO want. It seems a shame, because surely the show will suffer somewhat.
So ... "quiet and not particularly out-going" -- that already sounds great to me (provided she's part of a good mix of HMs, of course).

But somehow we're taken from there almost immediately to the thought that she must have been picked only for her Nuts-appeal.

And this is also taken as showing she's a wanabee.

So how do we get from A to ... um ... W? Partly, at least, because of her looks. It doesn't work otherwise, because no one would think she was destined for Nuts covers.

Just an observation ... (and, to be clear: I think steve16 makes some good points in that thread and I think he may be right about the show wanting wannabes.)

She's as boring as Glyn, George and that other one. But since she's the closest thing to a good-looking woman in the house, she'll probably get away with it.

Agreed, looks could get her through for a while.

Hey!! I think I just found Imogen on this site:

http://www.milliondollarpeople.co.uk

Type Find a Mate and then type in imogen.

Might be a way to get in touch with her when she gets out of the house?!?!
