Taken from Alex's site - it's so unusual to see something so flattering in a gossip column, the writer was obviously very taken with him:


In the Party Peeper section of today's News of the World magazine:

"Sipping the free cocktails at The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen movie premiere after-show party at St Martin's Lane Hotel were several Big Brother stars. The devilishly handsome Alex Sibley attended with his dad and sat discreetly in the corner for most of the night - except when he made time to chat with me. I find Alex very intriguing as he doesn't seem affected by the showbiz world. You'll never see him sucking up to and trying to befriend every other celeb in town - unlike some people! He comes across as quite shy and doesn't have an ego like some past BB contestants. Gee, I love him!"

Thanks Anon.

How refreshing to hear someone from the press being so pleasant for a change, I agree, Alex seems to have made quite an impression

He has really been quiet though, not pushing himself into the limelight or anything, like some of the others.

He has, not posing for photos all the time - none were taken here - often he seems to be snapped from the side while dashing past.

Alex entered the BB3 House for the fun & the experience NOT to pursue a showbiz career like Kate, Jonny & Alison.

I could be wrong but didn't Alex mention in a conversation in the house that BB could help his modelling career?

NO, NO, NO .... Alex has stated on several occasions that appearing on BB3 would not help/has not helped his modelling career.

What a nice article! I also have to agree that it makes a refreshing change to read something nice in a gossip column. I might buy NOTW next week.

And I think it takes a very down to earth, normal, and unpretentious celeb to go to a premiere with his dad (who I reckon must be a Sean Connery fan).

So the only time Alex decided to take a break from 'Sipping' his free cocktalis for most of the night. (What did he do for the rest of the night clean the toilets) and talk to someone other then his dear old Dad!. That unlucky person just happened to be a gossip columnist.
Why did Alex and his Dad go to the after show party ?
He knows the type of people who attend........showbiz/celeb's.

You would think with someone as Shy as Alex, him and his date for the night...... would have had a couple of bevvies and left.

My point is!.
Alex cant always be sure he will meet a freindly gossip columnist, if he is as shy as she made him out to be, why has he become king of the liggers!.

He should've stayed at home with his new girlfreind Mel, got his BB3 tapes out and had a look at himself on the TV......because that will be the only time he will see himself on TV.

Well that's exactly what they did do from the sound of it - watched the film, had a quiet drink, politely chatted to the journalist when she went over then left - that's what she was saying wasn't it?
