Evictions, Walking Out and Why Do We Bother?

It’s very easy to see why some people end up on Celeb BB. Verne? They was him drunk and pissing in the corner like on The Surreal Life. Coolio? They want rampant misogyny and random moments of disbelief. Terry Christian? They want to give good people a second chance at a career that they deserve (he would make an excellent Panel Show host, I think). But Tina? She’s there to be fat and piss people off and then leave in a blaze of glory as the second evictee. And, congratulations, Tina: you played your part admirably! But what I didn’t really expect was what happened after Tina left: Mutya walked. I mean, fine, she stole Tina’s thunder, whatever, but, really, who walks out of Celebrity Big Brother after a week! 

It’s an odd one, that. They must be under some contractual obligation for a minimum amount of time, but there’s no way they’ll get paid the full amount they’ve been offered if they walk early, so Mutya has plausibly just thrown cash away (cash I’m betting she needed, from her very appearance on the show). So why did she walk? She said she missed her daughter, and, weirdly, I completely believe her. I just can’t see any other reason, unless she hates Tina so much she wanted to detract from her eviction in the worst way possible. 

Anyway, what else has been happening…

* Coolio did a really enormous and quite repulsive fart!

* Everyone got letters from home and the woman from Liberty X who has obviously got some form of radioactive poisoning cried a lot when her boyfriend wrote to her! (I wonder if she cried because he’s just learnt how to?)

* ‘The Housewives Favourite’ and Ulrika chatted about sexual dreams (which makes me feel sick, coming from either of them, frankly)!

* Terry Christian and Coolio don’t get on very well!

* Still, to this day, nobody gives a shit about Tommy.

Oh, to coin a phrase: it’s all so torrid.
