The increasingly desperate state of Celebrity Big Brother is revealed in Brand Republic’s writing off of contestant Mark Bosnich as, ‘famous for being model Sophie Anderton’s ex and [testing] positive for cocaine’. And I know plenty of people who’ve no idea who Sophie Anderton is. They’ve got Caprice though, who’s famous in these parts for flying into Manchester from London on a sunny day and exclaiming, ‘Ooo. Nice here. It was raining in England you know’. Rating hopes seem pinned on Brigette Nielsen (who must be getting on a bit), as she enjoyed stripping off on a stateside reality show. Otherwise it’s people coming to terms with their has-been status. Like ‘former singer’ (don’t you love the bitchiness) Myleene Klass, who’s been offered what’s likely to be her last £100,000 pay cheque.

Meanwhile, I’ve added Jude & Trin & Clazza’s Reality TV Blog to the blogroll. They’ll watch sleb BB, so we don’t have to.
