Big Brother: Aisleyne Brands Pete And Nikkis Relationship A Sham!

Aisleyne Horgan Wallace has claimed that Pete and Nikki’s relationship since leaving the big brother house has all been a sham so that they could “make a kill” on their re-emergance.

After reports that Pete had ended things this week, Aisleyne admitted: ‘As soon as I heard they split up it came as no shock to me, no surprise.

‘[Pete] deserves someone who wants him for him and not who he is,’ ITN reports her as saying.

She added: ‘She had the opportunity to go outside the house and see how popular he was and then come back in and make a kill. I’m glad Pete got out before he got hurt.’

Sticking the knife in further, when asked about Nikki’s new show, Princess Nikki, Aisleyne said: ‘It’s not entertainment to me. Sorry, I’m a busy girl I’ve got things to do I can’t be sitting at home watching Nikki crying.’

E4 Princess Nikki 21.9.06

Can someone please explain to me just why I watch this show? All I can think is that its akin to picking at a scab. There’s that irritating itch that can only be relieved by trying to prise up the edge. Then the pain when you realise just what you’ve started, and the oozing blood after you’ve ripped the flipping thing off.

The show last night (21.9.06) was just like that. Nikki seems to have some weird idea of how a princess behaves. Apparently, in NikkiWorld, you should have a face like a slapped derriere on at all times, strop about like a demented penguin, and be rude and ill-mannered to the poor people forced to spend time with you. I’m fairly sure I’ve never seen a real princess behave like that, but there again, I don’t really mix in royal circles.

‘Do you have to apply to do this job?’ she demanded to know of the refuse collectors. ‘Do you think, oh I really hope I get it?’ said in her usual bewildered and condescending tone, casting aspersions on the nature of those who clear up after us. The binmen simply looked askance at her, perhaps idly wishing they could bung her in a bag and chuck her in the back of the wagon. I’m not quite sure why she screamed so at the sight of a few maggots - she lived in a house with Sezar for a couple of weeks after all.

I wonder how much they had to pay the poor woman subjected to Nikki’s hysterical giggling, as she lay being colonically irrigated. They would have had to pay me more than the entire budget for the show, especially to show my poo floating through the tube. The lady overseeing the whole procedure looked as if she would gladly perform the procedure on Nikki herself, without the benefit of lubrication, especially after Nikki took to randomly spinning dials on the delicate machinery.

The bulk (sorry) of the show was dedicated to the treatment of plop. Condoms, tampons, toilet paper, and bizarrely, large chunks of solid fat had to be cleared from the rest of the sewage. Now - I am hugely appreciative of the people who perform these vital jobs - but there is no way I would go anywhere near a sewage farm. Its bad enough living where I do when the wind is in the wrong direction. There again, I’m not being paid huge amounts to be publicly ridiculed and humiliated on National TV (which I’m fairly sure is the entire brief for this show). Nikki reacted with her usual ‘I’m not doing that’, the pained face, the heaving, and her bizarre act of not actually looking at what she’s doing, perhaps in the belief she can con herself into thinking she isn’t scraping claggy poo from a machine, and is in fact sweeping the floor or something.

Whatever it is, I wish that we could see something more than this Nikki Caricature. It doesn’t even merit being described as two dimensional - in fact calling it one dimensional is to do it credit. Unless the producers allow some of the ‘Nice Nikki’ (I know its there, I saw it appear from time to time on Big Brother) to emerge, any novelty value will wane fairly quickly. Perhaps that’s a good thing.

Princess Nikki Of Poo!

I loved it! This weeks episode of Princess Nikki has got to be the best yet.

After having to put up with whining Nikki on my TV screen for the last 4 months I could have wished for no better revenge than seeing Nikki scraping old tampons, poo and condoms off of a huge sewage plant roller.

When the show started with Nikki working as a refuse collector (bin woman) for the morning I wasn’t impressed. She lifted no more than five bags in amongst her incessant screams and I just didn’t think she was being worked hard enough. I had to laugh though when one of the binmen exclaimed “She’s on Anne Robinson tonight! She’s the f***ing weakest link.”

The show got better as Nikki was then forced to participate in a colonic irrigation. I don’t know how much the lady who was undergoing irrigation was paid, but I wouldn’t have done it for all the tea in China. She had to endure not only Nikki laughing hysterically at her, but the nation got to watch her poo disappear up a clear plastic tube. She’ll never be able to show her face in the local again!

The highlight of the evening for me, as you may have guessed, was Nikki working in the sewage plant. There is no place in the world to where she is better suited. i could have watched her scream and gag at the smell of raw sewage all night.

I can’t imagine what they have lined up for her next week, but I would have to agree with the Princess herself and say that it really couldn’t get much worse!

Big Brother: Pete Bennett Reveals His Reasons For Dumping Nikki Grahame.

Big Brother winner, Pete Bennett has revealed that he split up with girlfriend Nikki Grahame as they weren’t sexually compatible.

He told Heat magazine that Nikki “was never really interested, whereas my sex drive is very high. If I ever tried it on, she would have to finish her make-up or be looking her best.”

Pete also confessed that her tantrums also played a part in the end of the relationship saying: “Her behaviour made me embarrassed. She was saying my friend’s house smelt ‘doggie-woggies’ and started spraying perfume everywhere.

“When we were at a party she was asked to help clear up. She said, ‘Have you seen an A-list celebrity working?’ and refused to do anything. She’s high maintenance.”

Oh dear! What will Nikki have to say to that?

Big Brother: Pete Bennett Finally Dumps Nikki Grahame!

A very depressed Nikki Grahame revealed to the press this weekend that she has been sensationally dumped by Big Brother winner Pete Bennet, and all because he couldn’t cope with her famous tantrums.

When speaking to The News Of The World, Nikki, 24, confessed to flying into one of her famous hissy fits when she was squirted with vodka at Pete’s friends party.

She said: “Everyone knows how obsessed I am about hygiene. I thought I’d been spat at so you can imagine how I reacted.”

Pete also got angry complained about his pets smelling like ‘doggy woggies’.

But Nikki protested: “That’s hardly a good reason for someone to end a relationship.

“I’ve never been so happy in my whole life as I was with Pete—but right now I’ve never felt so low.”

Pete spoke to Nikki last Wednesday and told her that he didn’t want a relationship and just wanted to be friends.

Nikki said: “I told him, ‘But I love you very much.’ Then he told me he felt differently. I could not believe what I was hearing. I said, ‘I love you so much I will do anything for you. I’ll always fight your corner. I still want to be with you.’

“He said to me, ‘But it’s only me Nikki’ meaning he wasn’t worthy of the love I was giving him. I cried for two days when he told me. I’m still finding it hard to cope now.

“People come up to me in the street and say, ‘How’s Pete?’ and the tears flow.”

Nikki is adamant that her’s and Pete’s relationship was real despite what people may think, she stated:

“It was a very, very real relationship, not just a TV romance.”

What do you think? Do you believe her?

Princess Nikki Visits The Farm!

Tonight we saw the ever amusing (?) Nikki Grahame visit the countryside as part of her new show ‘Princess Nikki’ on E4.

She was rude, loud and ignorant, “whats new” I hear you say……not much I would have to reply.

I have a feeling that Nikki is not actually as stupid as she is portrayed on this show. When feeding the calves Nikki asked “is this lamb?” I am fairly sure that Nikki knew it was in fact cows that would be used for beef. As for the ducks she collected eggs from, I am almost certain that she was aware they weren’t actually geese, and I am sure that a lie detector test would prove that she does in fact know what an abattoir is (Jerry Springer here I come!)

Perhaps Nikki is trying to imitate Jade Goody, who is after all probably the most famous Big Brother housemate ever. However Jade has one thing that Nikki has not…..a personality. Jade may be silly and fairly ridiculous at times, but she also comes across as quite a nice girl. She seems kind and genuine, even if she will never qualify for MENSA!

In her highly inappropriate hotpants, with her incredibly stupid comments and her childish tantrums, Nikki is as far away from likeable as it gets. I for one can’t wait for this show to end!

Big Brother: Have Pete and Nikki Split Up?

Rumours are abound that the Big Brother couple of the year are no more, and friends of Pete Bennett and Nikki Grahame are insisting that the couple have already broken up.

Pals of Tourette’s sufferer Pete even told The Sun that the relationship had never been genuine in the first place.

Former Housemate Richard Newman commented: “I don’t think they were ever going out.

“He might have fancied her but it was a friendship blown out of proportion for the media.”

Of course Nikki’s publicist has a different story to tell, and has confirmed that the pair are definitely still an item……but she would say that wouldn’t she!

Princess Nikki: Queen Of The Fish

Warning: This post contains what I like to call ’sarcasm’. When I’m being sarcastic, I’ll put the sarcastic word in ’speech marks’. You have been warned.

Nikki Grahame started out on her quest for employment this evening in the first episode of Princess Nikki. The point of the show seems to be to put the sour-faced troll in a variety of extreme or unpleasant situations.

First off, she spends the day ‘assisting’ on a fishing boat, where she gets some quality career advice: “get your kit on Nikki” the fisherdude sagely advises. Alright, he was talking about putting on her waterproof gear, but still, if I was wardrobe department on Princess Nikki, I’d keep her covered up.

The ‘hilarity’ continues as the Daughter of Satan abuses a hotel owner about the quality of the facilities, eventually claiming she could run a better hotel than him. I’m sorry, but that’s just pure nastiness in my opinion. But, like the terminator of her own career, Nikki soldiers on blissfully unaware that she’s digging a huge hole for herself to disappear into. She calls in the producer and issues a load of random threats.

“You’re going to shoot yourself in the foot, I’m going home. I don’t give a fuck about the show.”

“Ooooh! Classic Nikki!”, chuckle Nikki’s last two remaining fans from the isolation wing, “She’s such a diva!”

Message to Nikki: It ain’t cute. It never was. We’re tired of your spoilt ickle girlie routine, and your fake tantrums and your namedropping Pete (Bennett or Doherty? I’m not sure.)

When the Big Brother buzz dies down, you’ll find yourself in Chummby’s Chippy again and this time there won’t be a camera crew in tow. Better brush up on those fish frying skills now…

Big Brother: Pete Bennett Snubs Old Friends

Some of Pete Bennetts friends from his former, non-famous, life are miffed with Pete’s lack of contact since leaving the Big brother house.

One friend Richard Nye is upset and said to the Star: “We know he is still under contract to Channel 4 be we thought we might have been able to get in touch.

“But he’s not answering his phone and is very vulnerable and easily led. We’re worried he could be taken advantage of.�

I wonder if girlfriend Nikki Grahame allows Pete to have friends? After all he has her now doesn’t he?

Nikki Grahame Gets Her Own E4 Show, Princess Nikki!

Big Brother housemate Nikki Grahame has been filming for her new show Princess Nikki which is due to air for the first time on E4 on the 6th of September.

The programme will follow her attempts to hold down an everyday job - referencing her stroppy turn as a PA in a Big Brother task.

E4 bosses have even pushed back episodes of the reality show Beauty and the Geek to make time for Nikki’s debut.

“They won’t tell me what jobs I’ll be doing, but they’ve told me they’ll be tough,” said Nikki in a statement.

“As long as they don’t make me a bin woman or put me on a fishing boat in the middle of the North Sea, I’ll be okay.”

A producer for the programme said: “Bin woman and deep sea trawler fisher-person are high on our list.”

Producers Of I’m A Celebrity Want Big Brother’s Pete And Nikki!

Producers of ITV’s hit reality tv show ‘I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here’ are rumoured to be desperate to sign Big Brother winner Pete Bennett and his girlfriend Nikki Grahame for their new series this autumn.

A source told the Daily Star: “They are the biggest starts of the summer and having them on the show is a sure fire ratings winner.

“With his outbursts and her tantrums producers know they are telly gold. They are perfect for the jungle. Pete is a serious bug lover so he’d fit in perfectly.

“And watching Nikki try to scoff a plateful of bugs in a bug tucker trial would be hilarious.�

Big Brother: Pete Bennett And Nikki Grahame On The Rocks!

Rumours are flooding the web that Big brother winner Pete Bennett and his housemate girlfriend Nikki Grahame are on the verge of breaking up.

It is said that while Nikki’s feelings for Pete are genuine, she is very upset at the fact that all of the TV offers and deals are being offered to Pete. All the while her publicist is on crisis management as each day another shocking revelation is made about Nikki in the tabloids.

A source revealed to the Daily Record:

“Pete can take his career any way he wants - the world is his oyster.

“He is a publicist’s dream. “Our aim is to minimise the damage caused by the revelations of her past.

“We must do this before we even start to think about drumming up work offers.” In the past week Nikki has admitted to working for a escort agency and been pictured on a porn website in lesbian-style poses.

Nikkis friend commented: “Nikki was left reeling from the fact she came fourth in Big Brother and it has gone from bad to worse since the show ended.

“Her feelings for Pete are genuine, but at the moment it just isn’t working.

“It would be okay if they got to see each other regularly, but they aren’t, and this problem is being compounded by Nikki’s jealously of Pete.

“She knows she isn’t seeing Pete because he is so popular and is doing so well work wise, while she has nothing in comparison.

“She is just wound up and frustrated it hasn’t gone her way.

“So they have decided a clean break from each other - for the time being - is the best way forward.”

Worst Big Brother Series Ever?

Peter Briffa of The Times thinks BB7 is the worst series of the show so far.

Last year’s had some pretty unlikeable characters, though at least they had some garish fascination. But this, quite clearly, has been the most stage-managed, and the most annoying.

Tabby and I had been talking about Big Brother 7 yesterday and one of the commenters echoed what we’d said:

Alas anyone who now enters BB is looking for fame and money, not the experience. Although next year I am praying for some normal! people not wannabees, but the ordinary public (lord help us!!).

Wasn’t this at it’s height last year, with a string of nonentities sitting around, doing nothing, just waiting for the inevitable BB fame? The worst character this year has been Nikki, without a doubt. If one good thing comes out of her return to the house, hopefully they’ll cancel ‘Princess Nikki’.

Anyway, folks. What do you think? Is this the worst BB ever, or has there been a worse one?

Big Brother: Nikki and Pete Have A Lovers Tiff!

Ahh trouble in paradise! Nikki Grahame and Pete Bennett have been loved up all week, and practically attached at the lips, but it seems that reality has begun to set in.

Both housemates are nervous about the final tomorrow night, and their tempers seem to be bubbling dangerously near the surface!

Earlier today Pete appraoched Nikki saying:

“So what’s wrong with you, man?” Pete asked Nikki. “I am in happy mode, I am happy.”

“I have told you that there is nothing to worry about and you have taken something I said out of context,” Nikki whined to her love.

“I am safe, not angry with anyone. Safe.” Pete persisted. “Don’t be upset and down.”

But having just seen Pete talking to Aisleyne, Nikki was a bit upset: “What did she say in the kitchen? Did she say ‘Nikki is p***** off with me?’”

“No!” Pete said. “Don’t be accusing me of nothing. I am in happy mode…don’t take it out on me!”

“If there was something to tell me, don’t keep it inside or tell Aisleyne instead,” Nikki continued.

Losing his patience, Pete snapped: “I didn’t get anything off you, so I can tell who I want what I want!” Pretending to pull his hair out, he reiterated: “I can tell who I want, what I want!”

What Nikki’s Doing To Me…..

I think I’m catching Tourette’s off the telly.

You see, every time I see Nikki Grahame on Big Brother, I have an uncontrollable urge to shout “Wanker” at the TV screen. And then I do.

And I don’t feel guilty about it because she’s got no integrity. Now, you rarely see the word ‘integrity’ next to the name of a Big Brother contestant, do you? And lil’ Nikki is no different. She went out of the house, found out what her fans liked and then returned to the house with her personality amped up to 11.

Oh, and now she’s loved up on Pete. Nothing to do with the fact that she was outside the house and discovered that Pete was the most popular person in there. Am I the only person who thinks she’s totally taking advantage of Pete?

It’s not just me she’s pissing off - check out Grace Dent’s blog on Radio Times - she’s not a Nikki fan either by the looks of things!

Big Brother stages a “Big Brother Musical”, which gives everyone the chance to insult each other a bit more. It also gives Nikki the chance to throw another one of her tantrums. I really could write more here about the far-reaching social significance of Endemol glorifying Nikki’s behaviour as something that school children can respect and aspire to.

I could even argue forcefully that feeding kids Nikki is more harmful in the long run than feeding them bad “don’t f*** with me” hip-hop. But after watching the footage of Nikki’s tantrum through again, I have decided not to write about her at all. Personally, I believe ignoring children’s tantrums is the best way to break the power-play cycle. If we all turn away and pretend she’s invisible, she might just bloody grow up.

Wanker!
