Shetty, who was branded ‘Shilpa Poppadom’ by Jade in the UK’s Celebrity Big Brother last year, is presenting the newest Indian Big Brother series and so will most likely come face to face with Goody at some point.

Shilpa said: “When I found out Jade was going on Big Brother India I was as shocked as when I first met her. Why go through this again?

“But part of me was really happy because it is an opportunity to show how welcoming we are. Read more & comment »

Big Brother Day 72 Highlights

10.42am: Tonight, either Rachel or Stuart will become the ninth housemate to be evicted from the Big Brother house. Nicole is in the Diary Room. She tells Big Brother that she has really enjoyed her time in the house but would like to get to know some people better.

Rex is talking to Kathreya at the sofas. Rex says he looks after Nicole which is the reverse of Kathreya and her “prince charming”. Kathreya does not agree and says they both look after each other. Rex says Nicole does not give anything back “that’s the way she was brought up”. Kathreya tells Rex he should teach Nicole differently.

In the Diary Room, Nicole admits “I am quite high maintenance” and that she has been spoilt when growing up. Nicole thinks over the next few weeks she will be more fun and bubbly as she has been quite boring so far. Read more & comment »

Big Brother: Stuart Tries Crowd Surfing

How bloody hilarious!!! Sexy Stuart was evicted from Big Brother tonight and I was so so sad.

I love Stuart, I love to look at Stuart, I love to ogle Stuart. The thought of watching Big Brother for the next few weeks without a sexy man to drool over fills me with dread.

But I admit that I was cheered up by Stuarts actions when he actually left the house. Stuart walked down the Big Brother steps and was so thrilled by the crowds reaction to him that he decided to dive in amongst them.

He tried a bit of crowd surfing and as Davina McCall said “I have never seen that go so disasterously wrong before.” He jumped, everyone moved and he hit the ground. Read more & comment »

Oh No! Stuart Is Evicted From The Big Brother House!

How bloody awful! The last hotty of BB 2008 has just been evicted! Is Big Brother worth watching any more? Not in my opinion.

Over the last two weeks the Big Brother attractive male population has been dwindling. Dale might not have had much going on up top, but he was very easy on the eye. When he was evicted last week we were left with just Stuart to drool over.

But tonight Stu went head to head with Rachel the good, and 59% of voters wanted him out.

So who will us girls lust after now? Certainly not greedy Mo or arrogant Rex. Darnell maybe? I think not!

Jade Goody Heading For Indian Big Brother

Can this be real? Can Jade Goody really be about to re-enter the Big Brother house?

According to The Daily Star Goody is set to enter the Big Brother India house. What makes it even weirder is that the live shows will be presented by Shilpa Shetty who Jade bullied on the UK celebrity version of the show.

A source told the newspaper: “Jade would like to prove that she’s not a racist.

“When she was first approached, she was a little apprehensive. She doesn’t know how viewers and housemates might react. Now she’s looking forward to it.”

Where are all the Big Brother Blogs?

Something we’ve not done much of this year is look at what other Big Brother blogs are saying about the show.

After a quick search around the web though, there don’t appear to be many independent Big Brother blogs left. The only one I could find was the randomly-updated BigBroBlog. A couple of years ago, the web was buzzing with Big Brother talk, but now it’s restricted to the big sites like The Sun, Mirror, Heat Magazine and Digital Spy.

Remember Big Blogger? Used to be an amazing BB site, but is now sadly discontinued.

Now, people have been predicting the death of Big Brother for years, but is the decline of independent Big Brother blogs yet another sign that nobody cares anymore?

You tell us…are there any good Big Brother blogs or websites out there that we’ve missed? Share them with us in the comments, why don’tcha?

RACHEL RICE AND STUART FACE BIG BROTHER EVICTION ON FRIDAY

Rachel and Stuart this week will face the next Big Brother eviction via the public vote on Friday 15th August. Rachel received six nominations with Stuart receiving five.

Darnell is the first to nominate. His first nomination is for Stuart. “Of all the housemates he wants to be here the least, and when someone does feel that way, it makes it harder to get on with them in the house”. His second nomination is for Nicole. “She’s not really bothered about being on Big Brother. If she was, she would have auditioned. For her it’s just a chance to be with her boyfriend, but you can’t just come in at the end and reap all the benefits and rewards from it.”

Kathreya’s first nomination is for Lisa. Her second is for Stuart. “He don’t really enjoy his time in here now, and he’s said if he stays here he’s not going to do anything around the house”. Read more & comment »

Big Brother 2008: Is Lisa A Man?

I am so glad that someone other than me has begun to question whether or not Big Brother housemate, Lisa Appleton, was actually born a woman.

During this years series of Big Brother I have been just waiting for The Sun or The Daily Star to break the news that she is in fact a transexual and that Mario is gay. However the big newsbreak has yet to happen.

It seems that I’m not the only person to wonder though. Mohamed brought the topic up with Lisa last night saying:

“I thought you’ve changed your sex.

“That was the first moment I saw you, and after that I thought ‘no, no, she’s a woman’.” Read more & comment »

Big Brother: Has Rex Newmark Cheated On Nicole?

An American beauty named Ashley Abbott has slammed Big Brother’s Rex Newmark as a cheating playboy.

She claims that she and Rex enjoyed numerous nights of passion duiring his recent holiday in LA and that he even offered her a summer job in his fathers up market eatery.

Ashley told The Sun: “Rex is a jerk. I trusted him and he betrayed me. I should have known he had a girlfriend.

“I hope he seeks professional help for his deceitful, womanising behaviour. He has no conscience.”

Big Brother: Hair Today Task

Today housemates must give up their hair in order to win a special reward.
Earlier today, Big Brother gathered housemates on the sofas in the living room to receive instructions for today’s task.

The housemates were informed that today, Big Brother will be providing them with a very special reward, but that reward has a price.

In the small task room Big Brother has set up a barber shop complete with barbers chair, mirrors, scissors, clippers and most importantly, a jar.

The Head of House must choose one person to become the Big Brother Barber. This person will be responsible for cutting the other housemates hair. The Big Brother Barber must fill the jar provided with housemates’ hair in order to receive the special reward. Read more & comment »
