Actor slams reality show contestants
Sunday, 17 August 2008
Hollyoaks star Ricky Whittle has hit out at Big Brother, branding the show’s contestants idiots.
The actor – who plays policeman Calvin Valentine in the Channel 4 soap – says he can't believe the arrogant attitude of some housemates.
‘They don’t know how to speak to people,’ he says. ‘I‘ve been in the presence of one when they said: "Do you know who I am," to a bouncer! I just thought: "You idiot."
‘The show breeds fame-hungry idiots, I think they’re ridiculous.’
The 27-year-old actor says he would only appear on a reality show if it was to learn a new skill.
‘I’d do something like Strictly Come Dancing or Dancing On Ice,’ he says. 'They would be fun.'

I so agree with ricky's comment.. BB is notorious for turning idiots into fampus idiots, and for what reason? for sitting in ahouse for a long period of a time causing riots and insulting those in their vicinity. BB should not be on the air, celebrities should earn their right to be famous.
Well, this is a bit rich coming from Ricky. Do you think that he's constantly posing naked in magazines because he wants to be a well established and respected actor or because he is indeed a prime example of a "fame hungry idiot"? Lesson to be learnt Mr Whittle; people in glass houses shouldn't make comments in magazines about their next door neighbours!
