People you donât recognise enter house you donât care about
A range of people you wouldnât know if you passed them on the street are going to live in a house you couldnât give a toss about, all for your entertainment, it emerged this morning. The latest series of Celebrity Big Brother has begun by redefining âcelebrityâ to include a range of inanimate objects used in everyday life. A Channel 5 spokesperson said the âCelebrityâ moniker for the show was very much aspirational, and no legal claim was being made as to the social status of the participants. âSo you canât complain, about any of it,â they clarified. Viewer Simon Williams told us, âAccording to Channel 5, this 1 litre capacity tupperware box that I use every day for my lunch, is actually a âCelebrityâ.â âItâs not been forthcoming with the autographs though.â âThough it is more recognisable than most of the people in the house itself.â Contestants this year include that woman who was in that thing, and that guy you saw once doing that stuff on television late at night when you got home from the pub. Williams went on, âThey should really just add âWannabeâ in front of the word Celebrity â it would be much more accurate.â âThe irony is, theyâre scraping the bottom of the barrel so hardÂ these days, the people in the celebrity version are less well-known now than the actual Big Brother contestants themselves.â âWhich to be clear, is not very well-known â at all.â
