Daring Pete Burns (from Dead or Alive fame) and dashing The Ordinary Boys leadsinger Preston are amongst the latest carefully selected "celebrities" on this year's Celebrity Big Brother.

Oh, the joys of celeb gossip!!

On day 2 (today) whilst bathing in the jacuzzi-type pool, Faria Alam told Preston she liked the way he dressed and agreed with Pete when he said he looked like a younger version of Morrissey, with striking similarities in profile, forehead and eyes, which Preston seemed pleased about, after saying himself he admired Mozz a lot. It all felt like a big compliment!! They then went on to include "Sweet and tender hooligan" in their conversation, shortly after that.

For a breakdown of what's going on in the house:

Go Preston!

  • What the hell is he doing on that vacuous, paint drying excuse for a television show?
    Firstly the participants are scraping the proverbial barrel when it comes to 'celebrity'. Secondly, Big Brother has surpassed all ironic reference points to 1984 and, should it carry on much longer, will cause the universe to implode by rewriting the concept of postmodernism.
    How did the Nathan Barley-esque makers put this one together?
    'So guys, I was thinking it'd be awesome right, if we got that woman that shagged Sven in with the left-wing, right-wing, any wing so long as it's on the wing, self publicist, Gorgeous George Galloway, whilst simultaneously resurrecting the career of that snivelling excuse for a presenter, Michael Barrymore'
    'Yeah, mental ... oooh, but don't forget we need a bit of credibility; lets phone round some indie bands, see if any of them are stupid enough to do it'.

    Or maybe they told poor old Preston it was Question Time and he'd be debating the state of music with the addled mess that is Burnsey.

    It's nice to hear The Smiths being talked about on 'popular' TV, but I don't imagine Moz will be tuning in any time soon.

  • Everyone in there is a no mark and yet ive gained a little respect for Pete Burns. I detest fur and yet for that slut to condemn Eskimos as "primitive" got a right on reply from Pete, who never mixes his mincemeat. This show has proven, there are even lower life on this planet than those who wear fur. Those who wear nothing and make a living out of it.

    That goldie lookin chain said she has sold 165 kiss and tell stories, Barrymore said she probably sold it once and bought 164 copies.
    Someone made an even more degrading comment, but the less said about that the better.

    Good on ya Pete, George and Michael. This world has enough low life without terming some "celebrities"

    GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Did anyone else hear Pete Burns say "fame, fame, fatal fame" when they had to do that "who's the most famous?" line up?

    I mean... not that I watch it or anything....

    I must say, Pete's my favourite person in there - he's hilarious. And PETA could have chosen a better advocate than Jodie Marsh, because she's being thoroughly embarrassing. Yes, she's trying her best, but she's an airhead and trying to argue very important points about animal rights against George and Pete makes her look like an idiot. The whole Eskimo conversation was cringeworthy. And she's got a nose like Michael Jackson.

    And what is Preston doing on that programme?! Does he have an album out soon?

    And can someone tell Barrymore that Hitler and Frank Spencer impressions are not amusing in the least - he's like a car crash between Freddie Starr and Darren Day.

    Oh well, at least the new series of Shameless has started.

  • Burns is the worst kind media whore imaginable.
    at least Jodie Marsh is honest about what she does. He is a one trick pony, he only ever had one single of note (excuse the pun) and he didnt even write that himself. What has he been doing for the last twenty years to justify any kind of attack on anyone!
    He doesnt have the intellect to take on Galloway or even Barrymore(who genuinely needs attacking) so he fawns all over them, then parades his freakish insecurities camouflaged as individuality.
    Why is he or any of them there if they dont want to be judged! its the ultimate page 3 act.

  • What with Pete worried about being evicted, and coming out with "I'd rather not go back to the old house" but wanting to stay in the BB house, and poor bullied and depressed Jodie wailing that now she "knows how Joan of Arc felt" as the evil Barrymore mumbles more sick nastiness at her, it seems you can't stop viewing lest you miss a sneaky Mozza reference!!
    Even that mischievous sexual predator Dennis is telling his targets that "the more you ignore me, the closer i get!" But is HE wasting his time?!
    I for one, am staying tuned!!!
