Ugh! I hate Ruby Wax. i never found her funny, just shouty and pushy. I thought she had given up show business to become a councilor, she must be missing the limelight.................

Re Ruby Wax.  She's always been bi-polar and I'm sure she did a tour/gig not so long ago to promote it.  Although saying that, it was under the 'comedy' banner so I'm not sure exactly whether she achieved what she set out to do? Plus it sounds highly probable that she'd get into the councilling side of things, Sezit.

Did she have any input in the writing of the latest Ab Fab..?

And I think she worked a lot with her husband (he's a producer) because she admitted she wasn't the easiest person to rub along with at times and needed him to keep an eye on her.  Anyhooo...... I'm wondering if she's finding it hard to get work and needs to up her profile (and earn a few quid).

*goes for a google*

oonoooo noooooooooooo Frankie cocozza - god could almost not watch - had enough of the twonk on X factor

From the DM:

There's always drama in the Celebrity Big Brother house, but this year it could be taken to new heights if Nicola McLean and Natasha Giggs end up in there.

Twenty-eight-year old McLean has spoken up about how she would feel if she was in the famous house with Natasha and she wasn't exactly complimentary.

Speaking to new! magazine the glamour model - who is rumoured to be taking part in the Channel 5 show - was giving her opinion on various issues when she was asked who she would hate to be in the house with

'Natasha Giggs,' she answered. 'I know we all have difficult lives, but I can't work out how things went so wrong that she did what she did.

'If she goes on the show, she is just making money from ruining people's lives. I know everyone has a past but, to me, it's the lowest of the low.

The mother-of-two also spoke up about her love for plastic surgery - and was rather honest about how pleased she is with the results.

'I love my boobs, they look amazing,' she said.

'But my crazy mind tells me they are not big enough. I would like to have them done again but I will never do it.

One way or another she'll have someone's eye out.....

But you won't be watching 

Don't get smart Aimee....it doesn't suit you! 

*runs away screaming in fear!*

*passes Rawky a big girls blouse too go with the gold tie* 

 a 'celeb' was dragging their heels about going onto CBB?

Looks like they were holding out for more dosh

Step forward Lee Ryan - dumped by Celebrity Big Brother for trying to up his fee

LEE Ryan must be feeling really BLUE – he has missed out on a £175,000 Celebrity Big Brother payday after asking for more cash.

The boyband star was being lined up for the next instalment of the reality show and bosses thought he'd agreed.

But last night the plug was pulled in a stand-off over cash

 So Solid Crew singer Romeo has been drafted in for a fraction of the price.

A show source said: "Lee was all set to go but then he wanted more than £175,000.

"There was already a pretty high figure for him so the decision was made to call it a day with him and find someone cheaper.

"There's no doubt he'd have been good value but we can't be held to ransom like that." Romeo — real name Marvin Dawkins — is the FOURTH star bosses had tried to sign.

Totally fine Lori.

I won't be watching.

For a start there are no celebs.

It will be edited to an inch of it's life.

I really think it is way past it's sell date now.

Be there or be square ... 9pm Channel 5 Live Launch

I am looking forward to it...... although, as always,  I feel a lot of grrrrrring coming on

*sigh*

Okay, I shall be joining you lot tonight for the launch show.  The main reason is so that I can laugh at the "Big Names" Channel 5 have spent their money on.  I'll also be eating a dominos pizza and have a jumbo sized bottle of Southern Comfort to ease the pain of viewing.  I can guarantee that, sadly, I won't be a regular visitor to this thread.

See you all at 9:00pm....unfortunately (i mean that in the best possible way)

So Natasha Giggs is entering the house... I suppose that's a nice change, usually it's big brother entering her.

Zing!

I'm putting all my hopes on Michael Madsen

I like the sound of that, but to be honest, the thought of listening to Brian Dowling is putting me off watching BIG time and if that Lauren thingy is in there i just know i'll have to turn off.

Just finishing my dinner....almost ready for the off!

Tsk, Fluffs... I finished mine half an hour ago - kitchen tidy, kettle filled for ad break cuppa and I'm raring to go!

....I'm here

Hellooo everyone.

I've got wine and chocolates!!

*comes in and does a practice grrrrrrrrrrr* Evening all

Vids Rawks

God. Kate Middleton is hot!

Couldn't agree more.

Gawn Rawks.. give in to the pull of BB  (and pour me a Southern Comfort - you'll never drink all that_

Vids, Rexi, Baz

   You can't say that about the future Queen!

Nice grrrrrr Baz

The thought that Lee Ryan thinks he's worth more than 175K makes me very angry.

I'll always watch a launch show.  But if the editing style is the same as last series then im orf!

Hello Rexi and KB.

And so it begins! Hi all
