We matchmake celebrity odd couples
Today: Syed Ahmed and Nikki from Big Brother
Why? Both are still hawking their wares long after their turns on their respective reality shows have come to an end. Syed was last seen on a ludicrous documentary charting his campaign to instal giant-sized hairdryers into the gyms of Britain while NIkki is doing the magazine rounds moaning about her latest boob job. As we all know two D-listers dating almost adds up to a whole C-list celeb! Get to it!.
Why not? Nikki has a penchant for pestering ex-boybanders, as her short-lived fling with Duncan James attests, Meanwhile, Syed seems to like ex-Kwik Save checkout girls, as seen by his romance with The Apprentice winner Michelle Dewbury - and we don't think screeching midget Nikki has done a proper day's work in her life. Still, desperadoes call for desperate measures.....

So did they get anything right about our Nikki?
1) She's not hawking her wares she is trying all kinds of diff thinks presenting on TV, writing a column, soon to be a DJ and writing a book - and she couldn't do any of those unless people wanted to employ her!
2) She is not moaning about her latest boob job she's happy to have had it done and as only moaned about the healing process not the op itself!
3) She is pure A-list - how many D listers get a weekly tv presenting slot on one of the most high profile shows at the moment or a weekly mag column in one of the biggest selling mags in the country?
4) She has never been out with Duncan or any other boybander and the only time she was interested was with ZIggy 4 or 5 years ago and he wasn't and she was soon glad when she found out what he is really like!
5) She did the proper 9-5 jobs pre bb and is fully employed and in demand now - not all proper jobs are 9-5!
Oh and and who is Syed Ahmed anyway never heard of him (he must be z list never mind D) was he in the apprentice? (never seen/don't know/just guessing) Wouldn't know him if i saw him!”
These articles are all a bit of fun and not to be taken seriously. I'll only start to worry when reporters cease to write about her at all.
Your right Nikki is doing well and is not hawking her wares. Job offers just continue to fall on her doorstep.
But I wouldn't go as far as to say she's A list.
Ex reality T.V. stars are generally looked down upon by the media and Nikki will just have to continue to work hard and become so good at what she does, and stick around for a long enough time that they will have no choice but to accept her.
There is a certain pomposity within media circles that makes it very hard for the likes of Nikki to be treated fairly.
But the fact remains that she has already made a great deal of money and the amount of T.V. air time she has accrued since BB7 is far greater than the rest of the housemates put together.
So far the girl has done well and lets hope she does even better in the future.
