Oh, I wondered what this thread was about. I presume you are talking about "I'm an (alleged) celebrity, get me out of here."
I never knew there was such a thing as "z-list" celebrities until I watched it, once, because someone else was watching it.
I always thought a celebrity was someone who, if identified on the street, people would ask for autographs. I really can't imagine that happening for any of the gimps on that programme. With the exception of Johnny Rotten, although he has apparently changed his name by deedpoll to "Leyden".
Perhaps we could introduce a new EU law: "Being on TV, especially Big Brother, does not by itself qualify one as being a celebrity." Didn't Jade
Goodyear call her baby "B.J." or something equally crass, just to get some column inches in the tabloids?
She probably thinks that's how he was conceived...
Looking at the cover of "OK" in the supermarket queue last week, the front page was all about Jordan and that guy with the silicon implants with headlines of "We want a Disney wedding, not a pathetic one like Posh and Becks", and "We'll stay married forever, providing Peter keeps it in his pants". I thought the last one was perhaps an attempt at irony: "we'll stay married forever", as if anyone ever says "Right, we'll be married for 20 years, then you will discover me in bed with the au-pair and we will get divorced. You will then keep the house and kids, I will buy a sportscar".
