The show got cancelled by Channel 4 last year but it got picked up by Channel 5 this year. It debuted about 3 days ago with a new Celebrity edition. The only celeb I know is Tara Reid and the Jedward twins but only bc they sang and went in the house of last summer's edition. Anyone watching? Not much has happened yet but I liked Kerry's diva task. Sucks for her though that no one picked her as a diva! She had some funny lines. When one of the housemates tried to comfort her, she said "My contract says you're not allowed to touch me" laugh.png "Somebody of my status (pronounced stay-tus, should expect more than this" LOL

I'm not sure. Conor has still been very bitter since leaving the house, as have most of the Insiders. There was also some controversy over some very nasty Tweets he supposedly made about Deana (they were deleted).

Apparently he and Arron weren't even allowed to be at the wrap party.

I love that Brian called her out on morphing into a mega bitch

So they yet again make sure viewers know threatening to rape someone is great, but being bitchy is not.

I think he was a very easy choice for people to vote for, as he had the transgender story, was a nonthreatening white guy who mostly smoked.

He was boring though and being transgenderred was such a non issue. It's not like Nadia from season 5

I think it was enough to get an early base of support. After that he was smart enough to get into the right group, and was the one of Lauren/Adam/Deana who was least likely to attract a negative reaction. The only hiccup was the BMI controversy but he handled it well. His main conflicts were with people viewers hated (Becky, Caroline), whereas Deana clashed with Conor, who was beloved by many viewers, and Luke S, who was pitied for his stupidity.

I think what really helped Luke A win was his remorse over the BMI comment. He felt bad after saying it and totally won over the public. Where as Deana wasn't remoreseful over her behavior the final week, which she shouldn't. I mean Ashleigh/Luke S deserved every minute of Deana's wrath after the way they treated her for the first 90% of the game.

Well Celeb BB started. Not liking that they are doing another one so soon as they had one earlier this year already and the regular edition just ended. With that said, I will try out at least the first week and hope I stay longer than the last Celeb edition

Ugh! to Mike from Jersey Shore in this. Wish he would just go away.

Right after BB gives the two former soap stars the secret task and Cheryl tells Mike that Julie had an affair with her ex:

Julie: "I cant wait to see the bedroom"

Cheryl: "I bet you cant wait to see the bedroom. You like the bedroom"

Julie: "Whats that supposed to mean? laugh.png

Am I the only one watching the Celeb edition? OMG, Jasmine is absolutely vile! I dont even know what she does. Some old model? Whatever, she is disgusting. The way she went off on Prince Lorenzo was so disrespectful and out of line. I also hate how she is hating on Danica and waged war on her. Ive never hated someone as much as I have on this show as much as Jasmine but in 3 days, she's done that

I'm not usually a BB fan, but have watched two episodes of this celeb edition. I actually liked Jasmine! I know she was being vile to Danica, but I could see where she was coming from. Jasmine is a fashion model (she also dated Simon Cowell), and as such, she's gonna naturally look down on people like Danica who are basically selling themselves. Danica is not any nicer, with her falseness, and playing Lorenzo off against that other guy. Her job is to manipulate rich men, and she has done just that with these two.

Cheap, you seem to be a huge fan of the genre! Do you ever think it has run its course?

Yes which is probably why the UK and AU edition have both been cancelled in the past. I dont think the revivals have been any as good as the original runs, but I still watch.

Anyone watching the new season?

Loving Emma Willis as host.

Early favorites are Sallie, Dan, Sam, & Wolfy.

Hope some of the bland contestants get into some fights.

I HATE Michael. He's a lousy actor.
