Well earning money from PA's doesn't seem to have been a problem so far, she gets paid by the clubs whether the customers like her or not, but dealing with the reaction of the crowds may have been difficult in some places.

Clubs arent going to keep booking her if the crowd react badly to her, no way.

And she's been in her honeymoon period up till now, before her 15 minutes are up. Once she's no longer fashionable it will be more difficult

Yes, I agree. Most RTV contestants find it hard to extend their 15 mins don't they (with a few exceptions)?

They will book her as long as she bring in crowds. (which she appears to be at present otherwise they wouldn't still be booking her).

As long as people turn up and buy drinks that is all they will care about...those few who heckle her have likely gone specifically to do so (which is extemely unfair on the majority who will have gone to see her for a fun night out as..only to find their night ruined by a few drunken fools...a bit like yobs who go to football matches and start a ruck, ruining it for the most of the other people).

The fact is that even the most popular comedians get hecklers in the audience at clubs....as I'm sure most controversial marmite like characters do.

Not an easy gig!

it wasn't an easy gig - but she seemed to cope with it - and boo-ed back at them. Not an easy thing to cope with a hostile crowd as any stand-up will tell you. And I'm not suggesting that Nikki is a comic before you say anything!

with reference to this PA - the punters did go though, they did buy drinks. So from the management point of view its a success. Might not be nice for Nikki - but they just want their dosh.

And has anyone heard that other PA's were bad for Nikki?

She ain't stupid - she knows that - so do her agents - that's why she's working her socks off at the moment

Either she's lucky and gets some more TV work or something that she can do as a career or she doesn't - same as with all the people who come out of BB - but at least at the moment she is earning money and seems to be doing better than the other BB contestants this year

Well, she can't have had many receptions like Loughborough then, coz she's still being booked.

I'm sure she gets hecklers at a good percentage of PA's...but it's likely par for the course in that sort of environment.

The next big round of reality shows starts in March/ April with the likes of "Comic Relief does Fame Academy" and "The Games", both Endemol created, so both potential shows for Nikki(although i'm doubtful she would want to appear on The Games). ..or there is always a chance for the next series of Strictly Come Dancing.

Another likely scenario would be ITV signing her up for whatever reality show they put up against Big Brother 2007.

Of course, if you want her to do more tv, then email shows/channels that you think she would be good for.”

Ive done that and got back a lovely letter from channel 4 saying they had noted my suggestions for Nikki.If more people were to do it it would keep her name in peoples minds and if we came up with the same ideas we might be listened to as they are hardly going to ignore their viewing public

and on the front page of the web site of the agency that does the bookings - unlike the rest of the BB people they have on their books

that's really sweet of you Jane - well done

we've had lots of ideas here - all we need is a tame producer or someone with a lot of money

But the clothes that she wears are usually spot on - just right for her - and the occasion. She doesn't overdress (much) and, in fact, often wears ordinary clothes that anyone can buy from the main high street stores. That's good for people to know - i.e. I can look good like Nikki - and it needn't cost a lot.

So - how about a new range of teen clothing . . . NIKKIWEAR! ”

or a new range of underwear called NIKKERS!!

The mags make me laugh about the "hit" and "miss" outfits. I buy the Evening Standard regularly and their Friday mag often has pics of celebs at parties with comments about how great they look. A couple of weeks/months later they'll have the exact same pic but with a "who allowed her out in this" comment. They must think all readers have a memory like Pete.

I was at Madonna's first PA in London when she appeared at the Camden Palace at the night run by Steve Strange and Rusty Egan. She got boo'ed coz she was miming, but after her first song no-one could be bothered and we all went to the bars and left her to it.

[quote=On the Heath]Do you think Nikki has any irons in the fire at the moment? I would think she needs to capitalise on her BB fame quite quickly. You know what they say about 15 minutes of fame... soon we will all be talking about the next lot of BB contestants and few people will be interested in last years batch.

EDIT

Unless she's happy to drift back into ordinaryness, though I dont think she would be[/QUOTE

Nobody in the previous six BB's has been quite like Nikki and I doubt if anybody in BB8 will come anywhere near her.

Nikki is a one off and will not be overshadowed by anyone.

She has already had more post BB Television airtime than all the rest of this years housemates put together.

She is probably just as instantly recognisable by the general public at large (and maybe more so) as Pete.

She had six weeks of airtime on a primetime Saturday morning childrens slot and also appeared on another Saturday morning show for the BBC. And she has had numerous other T.V appearances.

She won a major television award which was voted for by the public. And her face has been on the front of numerous magazines during and since BB has ended.

People who become this well known do not disappear overnight and I am sure we will be seeing more of Nikki in the future.

Of all the other previous BB housemates only Jade,Kate and Brian (and to some extent Michelle) have had long term success. I think Nikki will join them.

These people have transcended BB and whatever happened on future shows has not affected their continued success.

You know - I think I hate you
Why do you always write such great posts

I agree with all you say but you put it so much more succintly that I could

Whether people on these forums like it or not Nikki is a one-off - she has had much better exposure than anyone else this year.

I just hope that her agents can capitalise on that and find her something worthy of her talents

Love you really - but you know that - don't you?
Not in that way of course ..... !
