How weird would that be, Paris Hilton doing a guest appearance on her impersonators reality TV show!
Apparently it’s on the cards though, as Chantelle said this week “I think it could happen and it would be so exciting to meet her,â€? Houghton told the UK paper The Star. “Basically it’s a case of ‘my people’ are talking to ‘her people’ and we’ll see what happens.â€?
I hope that Paris demands that Chantelle gives back all the freebies and treats she collected throughout the years on the many occasions that she actually pretended to be the Hilton heiress.
Should be interesting!

In a bid to claim back some of the viewers from ITV’s Celebrity X Factor and Celebrity Love Island, Big Brother producers are planning a series of surprises and twists for this years show, designed to keep us on the edge of our seats!
One such ploy is rumoured to be the introduction of Chantelle and Preston into the house to spice things up a bit, and also the shows bosses will be allowing one lucky housemate to attend an England world cup game.
An insider gushed: “Everyone’s excited about this one. They wanted to do something to take in the World Cup because the contestants will be in the house throughout the tournament. But this is a very ambitious project with potential pitfalls, including how to stop the housemate being recognised and mobbed by other England fans.�
The only problem is what if the housemate in question isn’t English? I can’t imagine a Scot wanting to attend an English world cup game!

Awww ain’t it sweet, Celebrity Big Brother winner Chantelle Houghton and runner up Preston have had their first bust up.
It seems that Chantelle was feeling upset by Preston’s ex-girlfriend Camille publicly revealing details of her break up with The Ordinary Boys singer.
Chantelle was supposed to be attending an award ceremony with Preston, but failed to show up. Her fella did show his face but remained glum for the duration of the evening and rushed straight back to Chantelles side as soon as the show ended.
A friend revealed: “He told Chantelle he was 100 per cent committed to her. He stressed to her that whatever Camille said or did he only wanted to be with her.”
It must have worked as it is now rumoured that the pair are planning to get married next year on the 5th of January, exactly a year after they met on the show.
A friend of Chantelle’s told the Daily Star on Sunday: “You know how they jokingly talked about getting married when they were on the show? Well, now things have progressed a bit further! They’ve decided they want to spend the rest of their lives with each other. They’re soulmates, best friends and now want to be a married couple too. Chantelle didn’t need much persuading when Preston asked her. It’s so exciting.�
Fellow Celebrity Big Brother Housemate Maggot has also revealed that he believes the pair will marry and that he wants to be Best Man!
Even Chantelle’s mum seems to have welcomed Preston to the family with open arms. Looks like this might be a couple with a future!

It seems that Jade Goody is worried that she is being overshadowed by Big Brother’s other thick but harmless blonde Chantelle Houghon.
Jade is said to be very concerned that Chantelle is getting so much press coverage and is pressurising her agent to get her name back in the headlines!
A source spoke to The Sun saying : “Jade is deeply concerned that her work- and her money- is going to dry up now Chantelle has captured the nation’s heart.
“She has had meetings with her agent to discuss how she can boost her profile and stay in the limelight.
“Jade has had a great run but Chantelle is a big name and it looks like she’s here to stay.�
Maybe Jade should get out there and steal another girl’s man, that seemd to work for Chantelle!

Despite the fact that she blatantly stole her man, Celebrity Big Brother contestant Preston’s ex-girlfriend Camille Aznar has revealed that she doesn’t hate Chantelle Houghton.
In an interview with Grazia the 25 year old admitted
“It has been very difficult going through a break-up and seeing your boyfriend with another woman all over the papers.
“But I don’t hold anger towards Chantelle. I’m not a victim.”
She also revealed that she found it very difficult watching Preston flirting in the house,
Camille added: “I could see Chantelle was flirting with Preston. I could tell she was infatuated with him.
“It was weird seeing Preston in the house. I felt very distant from him.”
Although Preston and Camille got engaged a week after he left the Big Brother house, they just couldn’t work through their problems
She said: “We had to face up to the fact that we could never go back to how we were.”

Since leaving the Big Brother house the budding romance of Preston and Chantelle looked doomed!
Only a few weeks ago Preston was rumoured to have proposed and become engaged to his french girlfriend Camille, and it looked like Chantelle was out of the picture.
But now it finally appears as if the pair have finally got it together and just a day after splitting up with his girlfriend, The Ordinary Boys singer and Chantelle were spotted checking into London’s trendy Sanderson Hotel.
A source tells the News Of The World, “They came in separately on Monday and tried not to draw attention to themselves.
“Chantelle had her head down but you couldn’t miss the smile on her face. Once they were in the room nobody saw them until the next morning.â€?
On Radio One Chantelle Houghton gushed, “Right now, I’m living the dream. I’ve had such a brilliant time. It’s every girl’s dream.
“Preston and I get on really well because he’s genuine and honest and I trust him.â€?
A pal of Preston’s confirms, “Preston has been surprised by his feelings for Chantelle, which were only confirmed by what happened on Monday. He can’t stop thinking about her.
“He feels guilty about Camille, but can’t ignore his feelings for Chantelle. Flaunting the fact that they are an item will hurt and humiliate Camille, but they are definitely together romantically.”
What do you think is Love Young Dream act for real or is the whole thing just one big publicity stunt?

Pete Burns has claimed that the recent series of Celebrity Big Brother was rigged so that the non-celebrity Chantelle Houghton would win.
“I am absolutely confident, whether they want to sue me or not, that it’s rigged. It was obvious Chantelle was going to win,” he said.
Pete Burns of band Dead Or Alive also criticised the editing team stating “Everybody has a role that they’re edited into, it’s an extremely creative show that’s put together by a team of eminent psychologists to hit people’s trigger points.”
Its obvious that Pete feels hard done by. At heart he is clearly a sweet little pussy cat who wouldn’t hurt a fly, but that big bad editing team made him look like a school bully and a nasty spiteful man/woman. If we the public had seen the true him of course we would have wanted Pete instead of Chantelle to win!
Pull the other one Pete!

It looks like Chantelle is going to be no flash in the pan celebrity! After leaving the celebrity Big Brother house she was offered her very own reality TV show in which the cameras will follow her life for six weeks watching how she copes with her new celebrity status and all that entails!
According to The Sun, Chantelle is being paid £50,000 for starring in ‘Living The Dream’.
A source told the paper: “We’re going to see if Chantelle can really launch a pop career – maybe with her fake band, Kandyfloss.
“We’re also going to follow her as she’s launched on London’s top nightspots.
“Can she pull a footballer, or will she end up with BB housemate Preston?”

It would seem that young Preston from The Ordinary Boys just can’t make up his mind!
Just last week there were reports that Preston had proposed to his long term girlfriend Camille and he denied having any feelings for Chantelle while being interviewed by Davina McCall. But now the Celebrity Big Brother Ex-Housemate has admitted that he does love Chantelle after all.
He said ‘I fancied Chantelle straight away – who wouldn’t? She’s gorgeous, brilliant, funny…everything I look for in a girl,’ he said.
‘I’m not bothered whether she has blonde hair or fake nails. That’s not why I like her. I like her because she’s the way she is. That’s why she’s sexy.’
‘I lied to Davina – I DO love Chantelle.’
However Preston (like many other men) would simply like to have his cake and eat it. As he is still with girlfriend Camille and is even encouraging the two girls to be friends. Somehow I don’t see that working Preston!!

Chantelle may believe that what she and Preston found was indeed true love, but it appears that preston does not feel just as strongly.
Since leaving the house Preston is rumoured to have been avoiding Chantelle and is trying to patch things up with his girlfriend of one year Camiile. He has even proposed to Camille in an attempt to prove his commitment to her.
A source told the Daily Mirror: “Preston had no idea what kind of furore his appearance on the show would create and he was naive as to how much his flirting with Chantelle would upset Camille.
“He was totally loved-up with her before he went in the house and was taken by surprise by his feelings for Chantelle.
“Now he’s out he realises his feelings were intensified by the environment he was in and he just wants to get back to normality.”

Chantelle Houghton the non-celebrity winner of this years Celebrity Big Brother is certainly not as thick as she looks!
She may seem obsessed with her waist length blonde hair, fallen in love with fellow contestant Preston in just three weeks and have been inspired by Caprice to apply as a contestant, but recent reports would suggest that Chantelle has more sense than we have given her credit for!
She is said to be considering releasing a single with her fake band Kandi-Floss (wiv a K!) who she performed with in the Celebrity Big Brother awards show at the weekend. This alone would earn her thousands of pounds. Team that up with all the modelling shoots, magazine spreads and TV interviews and it is rumoured that Essex girl Chantelle Houghton could be worth £1,000,000 by the end of the year!

Michael Barrymore has been pipped at the post on his comeback thanks to non-celebrity Chantelle Houghton. Amazing, yet we all saw it coming, didn’t we?
Hard to believe that Chantelle could have been evicted two days after the show started, but was saved by Preston who thought he was the least famous person in the house.
Michael Barrymore Takes 2nd Place
Although he was emotional on leaving the house, Barrymore was much more in control than during his entrance! He denied playing to the cameras – as George suggested, and admitted that his time in the house was great therapy.
I’ve been in therapy eight times, but that was the best therapy I’ve ever had! You should consider charging.
Congratulations to Barrymore for being the celebrity runner-up. I’ll be watching to see what happens next in his career. Hopefully he won’t be releasing a single like most of the others…
Chantelle Takes The Crown
“She walked into the Big Brother house a complete unknown, but she’s coming out the star of the show.” So said Davina as the ecstatic Chantelle bounced down the Big Brother catwalk. Apparently she took 56% of the vote, winning by a complete landslide!!!
There could not have been a better winner for the show. No ego, no agenda and sometimes no clue, Chantelle was just pure fun! I’m sure the situation with Preston isn’t over yet – BB played the clip of Preston saying “If I didn’t have a girlfriend, I’d marry you” a little too much. There may still be a showdown!
Ah well, that’s it for this year. Consider it just a warm-up for Big Brother 7 in the summer!

Ordinary Boy Preston leaves the Big Brother house in 4th place. My first thought was “will the girlfriend be there?”
Tabby says if she was the girlfriend, she’d be waiting at the studio with a pair of sharp scissors. Ouch. I can see the appeal of Chantelle, but if you’re a bloke going into the Big Brother house, it’s best to enter as a free man…
So, during the Davina interview, Preston got a serious grilling about his relationship with Chantelle. Then we saw the girlfriend in the audience. Didn’t look amused, did she? Hope security took any sharp objects off her….
Anyway, looks like Preston and Pete will be going head to head in the charts soon, as Boys Will Be Boys has just been re-released….and maybe Kandi-Floss too if Tabby is to be believed!
