Celebrity Big Brother 2006 - Betting Update
Stating Jodie Marsh was a definite final four contender was a massive faux pass as she was voted out of the house first. The odds have swung dramatically for some of the celebrities since the show first aired 12 days ago and here is the latest betting round-up for the 10 celebrities left in the house. Chantelle Houghton 10/11 Despite being rumbled by three housemates about her non-celebrity status, Chantelle was deemed to have passed her task. How ironic that a non-celebrity can win Celebrity Big Brother, but, given the past line ups, it is arguable this has been going on since the series began. Chantelle has the characteristics a woman needs to do well on Big Brother: blonde, has no discernable talents and is blissfully thick. Samuel “Preston” Preston 11/4 Preston is a self confessed Big Brother fan and knows what is required to stay the course: be a bit of a “jack the lad”, keep your head down and make sure the attention is on you when a bit of pretend romance is involved. Gullible Chantelle is the object of his feigned love interest. Perhaps he sees them as the Celebrity version of Maxwell and Saskia, but without the obnoxious behaviour? Maggot 9/1 Has been a disappointing character since entering the house and has been devoid of all Welsh, chavtastic behaviour synonymous with his band, rappers Goldie Looking Chain. All he does is sit around and nod like a dog when somebody slags off somebody else. Michael Barrymore 14/1 Has seen his odds slump from 3/1 favourite to 14/1 following a week of abhorrent, self-pitying behaviour. Barrymore looks tired, old and must be wondering whether entering the house was a wise decision. An altogether unpleasant character, but unfortunately one who still has a large enough fan base to keep him in the game. Traci Bingham 16/1 The classic Stepford wife but in this case, she is for real. Traci is immaculate at all times and is always cheerful and positive. There is clearly some sort of history with her and Dennis and this could be explored further – a far more interesting proposition than the Chantelle / Preston non event. Pete Burns 20/1 Has wit as dry as the Sahara even if he does look like Lily Savage’s less attractive younger sister. Like the two-bob diva he is, he has threatened to walk out of the house because of a lack of cigarettes. However, prima donna’s like Burns only flounce around threatening to walk without actually doing so. It is his own fault as he failed to hold on to a plant and talk to it every 15 minutes. He missed a trick there, the plant could have been the best source of conversation he has had all week. George Galloway 33/1 “Gorgeous” has been “milking” the attention for all its worth this week when acting like a cat in a bizarre task with Rula. The politician purred and licked imaginary milk from her withered hands. Is he bringing politics to an audience other MPs cannot reach or is he just humiliating himself in an attempt to boost his ego? Rula Lenska 33/1 After slating Jodie for her “sexy” antics, the ageing former Mrs Dennis Waterman proceeded to give a tacky “mummy” striptease during Traci’s Friday 13th themed birthday party. She would have been better off leaving the bandages on. Dennis Rodman 40/1 Has been portrayed as a mumbling, sex mad perve since Day One but has done little to disprove it since he spends most of his time, well, mumbling and talking about sex. After hounding Chantelle and Jodie, he has now moved onto Faria. Faria Alam 66/1 Faria is an almost endless source of cheap laughs if you can be bothered to write the jokes yourself. Hilariously, Chantelle chose Ms Alam to confide in about how she wouldn't do anything with Preston because he already has a girlfriend. Aren’t we, as a nation, better off since she has been given prime time media coverage? Taking advice on ethics from Faria is like being told how to get a six-pack by Rik Waller.
