Goldie Lookin Chain's Eggsy: Maggot had a tough time in Celebrity Big Brother

Welsh rapper didn't enjoy being in the limelight

Eggsy wouldn't want to go on Big Brother

Goldie Lookin Chain’s Eggsy claims bandmate Maggot had a tough time after appearing on Celebrity Big Brother.

Maggot came third on the reality show in 2006.

‘I think he had a bit of a breakdown ‘cos it’s so intense in there,’ Eggsy tells Now Online.

‘You’ve got to expect that people will recognise you but when he did Big Brother it took it to another level.

‘You have old crazy people sitting at home watching, saying, “There’s worm, there’s worm,” not even getting his name right. He’s all good now, though.’

Eggsy is not a fan of the Channel 4 programme. 

'When it first came out I was under the impression you could watch women having a shower,' he adds.

'But you never see them showering so I gave up and just watched porn on the internet instead.'

Goldie Lookin Chain are performing on the Virgin Media Union stage at this weekend's Virgin Media V Festival at Weston Park, Staffordshire.
