Oh come on, they've all watched the previous series and know exactly the sort of notoriety they can attain, moreso the ones who don't actually make the grade.
If Raef (and his supporters) was/were so sure of his business acumen then he would have been assured of a job regardless of the way he went about it. The 15 minutes of fame has nothing to do with being controversial but merely of making an impression. Raef is assured of his so I'm sure he's happy
