OFCOM has ruled that this years Celebrity Big Brother did not breach broadcasting rules despite hundreds of complaints about rapper Coolio.

Most of the complaints related to his sexist and allegedly bullying behaviour, however OFCOM said that Coolio was the “villain of the piece” for many but that “such a role, after 10 years of Big Brother, is generally expected by the audience”.

The former Liberty X singer claims that she has has her fill of wearing skimpy dresses though this clip of her on Snog Marry Avoid would suggest otherwise.

Jade Goody’s decision to allow filming of the end of her life. Right or wrong?

Daily Mail's image of Jade and Jack

Clicking on this image will take you to the touching Daily Mail article about Jade & Jack's engagement

The image above from the Daily Mail is without doubt the most touching, truthful and painfully sad depictions of Jack and Jade’s love that I’ve ever seen. The picture captures the desperately sad fact that despite their love for each other, they know they don’t have a long future, and it makes me weep every time I look at it simply because of the immense honesty of the picture.

And Jade Goody is, among many other things, honest; often painfully so. At one time, I would have said that honesty was born from the lack of sufficient intelligence to lie or carry out a deceit because as I’ve mentioned in my articles about Jade on this site before, when she first shot to fame on Big Brother in 2002, I couldn’t stand her.

I thought she typified the ‘chav’ type of young woman; loud-mouthed, inarticulate, crass, vulgar… in fact, I thought she was exactly what she portrayed herself to be – the ill educated product of a broken, dysfunctional family who lived on state benefits on a rough council estate. The fact that she seemed to be proud of – or at least not embarrassed by – “being thick” embodied for me many of the things that I felt were wrong with young people in this country today… Read more & comment »

ulrika jonsson

Celebrity Big Brother bosses are said to be thrilled that Ulrika Jonsson won this years series.

Verne Troyer was hotly tipped to win the show and bookies were backing him as the winner with Terry Christian to finish in second place. However on the night Verne finished in fourth place and Ulrika Jonsson won the show.

A show insider told The People: “It is good to get a shock every so often. The last series of Big Brother was incredibly predictable, as it was the previous summer. It’s quite nice when you end up with a result which takes some people unawares.”

Backstage gossip from the Celebrity Big Brother press conference

Celebrity Big Brother logo

It’s been a helluva night folks, hasn’t it? I’ve just come back to my hotel room from the Celebrity Big Brother final and press conference.

Let me say first, that the highlight of the entire night was Jack Whitehall on Big Brother’s Big Mouth. Okay, as one journalist next to me remarked, he was swearing much more than usual, probably on account of the final night adrenaline. But that whirlwind performance and minor bitchfight between Tina Malone and Michelle Heaton was priceless. (I heard later on that Michelle broke down in tears during the commercial break and none of her housemates comforted her – a member of the audience did instead.)

Ulrika Jonsson Wins Celebrity Big Brother 2009

ulrika jonsson

Ulrika Jonsson has been announced as the winner of celebrity Big Brother 2009 and I never would have seen it coming. When the voting lines closed, Ulrika had received 56.7% of the total votes for the final two places.

Terry was the runner up with 43.3% of the total votes.

Verne Troyer was tipped to win the series with Terry in second place, who would have thought that a Swedish weathergirl would have beaten them both?

Is anyone out there an Ulrika fan? I don’t mind her but never would have voted for her to win. What was the appeal? Someone tell me please….

Celebrity Big Brother Final In Pictures!

Here are some shots of the Big Brother celebs from tonight’s series finale!

Ben finished in fifth place, Verne in fourth, Coolio in third, Terry Christian in second and Ulrika won! Was anyone else surprised by the result?

First Verne leaves in fourth place after he was hotly tipped to win, and then Coolio got the news that he had finished in third place. Coolio received 25.3% of the votes

Winning the show tonight will be Ulrika Jonsson or Terry Christian, who will you be voting for?

Celebrity Big Brother Final: Liveblogged

celebrity big brother

We have just kicked off and the crowd at Elstree looks crazy! I am looking out trying to spot Gerard from Unreality TV in the crowd but he must be ducking behind someone’s sign.

Davina is just giving us all the numbers we need to vote, who will it be?

20:31: I understand why people are booing Michelle, Tina, Lucy and Mutya but why on earth would you boo Tommy or La Toya. Poor Tommy looked gutted!

20:36: Highlights from the last 24 hours…..get back to the eviction!!!

20:38: Could Verne be any more obvious that he doesn’t like Ulrika. He has just ignored everything she said to him and there only is two of them in the room!

20:44:
Every time Verne starts to spill his guts everybody leaves the room! He’s been left with Ulrika once more and the pair are discussing broken hearts and trust issues. How deep!

20:48: Ben is out. His interview will be….well….boring! I’m glad he’s gone, he was a waste of a fee really!

20:54: How red is Ben’s face? He is so embarrassed, probably by all the boos! Ohhhh Davina is asking him about Michelle.

Ben replied: “Michelle and I knew each other before and we kind of clicked a little bit more than other people did. But she’s got a lovely boyfriend and she’s a lovely girl.”

Davina: “Did you fancy her?”

Ben said: “She’s a lovely girl!”

Oh he’s hoping for a magazine deal!

20:59:
Verne is out!!! WTF???? The bookies favourite finishes in fourth place. It’s anybodies now.

21:08: The crowd is chanting “Winner winner winner” at Verne whilst he is doing his exit interview. He looks a little bemused. When asked what his favourite moment in the house was, Verne replied: “I guess when I was imitating Coolio.” Davina went on to show him clips from his tipsy night, you just never can see a midget crash enough! When asked how he found his time in the house and whether the housemates treated him well Verne replied: “They did offer to help a lot, but when I’m at home there aren’t things lowered for me and I do everything for myself. I just wanted to show people that I really am no different, only smaller.”

Davina: “Did you know Coolio well from LA ”

Verne: “We’ve hung out a couple of times. I’ve hung out in his house, we’ve hung out in Vegas.”

Davina: “Lets Discuss Ulrika”

Verne: “I think she is a great lady, a very caring mother and overall I got along with her. there were certain times when things went on between us but it wasn’t anything drastic.” “She is very bossy!”

Verne tipped his “homeboy Coolio” to win.

21.20: Coolio is out, just Ulrika and Terry left. I never thought Ulrika would make it this far.

22:07: I’m a winner and I win most of the time. I’m a terrible loser but I’m not unhappy at having Terry left in the house.” “I expected Verne to win, or La Toya.”

Davina then asked Coolio about his gameplan.

Coolio replied: “At the beginning I was trying to irritate some people and make them walk out.

Davina: “You did end up irritating your housemates.”

Coolio: “Yeah but I was acting the ass, trying to have a good time and keep myself amused. I have a serious problem with being bored, I’m not used to being bored.”

Davina then talked about how upset Michelle got by his teasing.

Coolio replied: “I never disliked Michelle, I saw how her and Ben was looking at each other and got a little you know. ”

Davina: We saw an amazing soft side to you during the inauguration.

Coolio: “I’m 45 years old and I never thought that I would live to see a black president. My great grandfather was a slave, he bought his family out of slavery. He changed our last name and I’ve heard all those stories. So yeah it was a special moment and I was overwhelmed with emotion.”

22.19: Ulrika wins!!! Who would have seen that coming. A Swedish weathergirl beat them all. Terry is coming out now, Ulrika will have to wait for a while.

22:25: Davina is interviewing Terry.

Davina: “Terry you totally immersed yourself in the game, was that a gameplan?”

Terry: “It wasn’t the plan, but there’s no point doing it unless you are going to go for it and make an idiot out of yourself.”

Davina: “Did you ever think you would come out best buddies with Coolio”

Terry: “I got on with anyone, I liked Ben, I missed Tina when she left and I missed Tommy. But with Coolio I’m from a big family and I’m used to a lot of noise.

Davina: “Coolio brought out the male in the house and stopped all the strong women from taking over.”

Terry: “Do you know we did all the washing up anyway, me, Coolio, Tommy and La Toya.”

Davina: “Will you keep in touch with anyone?”

Terry: “Yeah we are all going to have a drink tonight and swap addresses. We need a drink just to take the edge off.

22.40: Ulrika starts her exit interview with Davina.

Ulrika: “This is singularly the weirdest experience of my entire life and I have had a weird life.”

Davina: “You were the most unwilling housemate and three weeks later you are the winner. Why do you think that it ended like this?”

Ulrika: “I don’t know I have to say now that I never thought I would regret going into the house. I don’t regret it at all, it was an amazing experience to have. I said in the diary room a couple of times that I would only be in for a week. I had only packed enough panty liners for two weeks, so I was very grateful for Terrys nomination and then to be nominated again and again and again.”

“Coolio told me that I need to relax a bit more but I am used to putting the kids first and find it hard to enjoy myself.”

Davina: Some of the guys found you hare to live with because you were so bossy. Would you agree with that?”

Ulrika: ” Oh totally, my husband tells me that all the time. I am, and I think its because I have to organise people and sometimes I get told to just stop. It’s hard to switch off, I was no different in the house than I am at home.

Davina: “You and Coolio went on a little journey didn’t you?”

Ulrika: “Well I think that Coolio at one stage went “You’re a Leo” and suddenly that’s why we weren’t getting on. But it was really only because he was so dominant. He did provide a fantastic energy in the house and he was great entertainment.”

Verne Troyer Is Evicted From Celebrity Big Brother

verne troyer

As proof that the bookies don’t always call it right, Verne Troyer did not win Celebrity Big Brother tonight, instead he finished in fourth place. Verne received 15.8% of the total votes cast

I was never behind Verne in any big way, he seemed nice enough but he wasn’t exactly an exciting housemate. I am surprised at this result though. I expected Verne to finish in at least second place, and now I have no idea who is going to win tonight!

Ben Adams is Evicted From Celebrity Big Brother

ben adams

Ben Adams has been evicted from the Celebrity Big Brother house.

Ben finished in fifth place leaving Ulrika, Verne, Terry and Coolio to battle it out for the winners title. Ben received 15.2% of the total votes cast.

I think Ben did quite well to get this far. Let’s face it, the boy was nice to look at but his personality was…..well…..nonexistant!
