the housemates aren't trying to be heroes though? they're just living their life and earning a bit of extra dosh along the way. are you telling me you wouldnt go in the BB house for 300k? which is what some of them are being paid. what a stupid comparison. (p.s. theirs an olympic athlete in the house and i dont blame him one bit seeing as he probably gets paid crap for doing Judo)
I never said they were trying to be heroes, I was simply comparing what I see when I watch the Olympics and what I see when I watch Big Brother (I admit ZEROS was probably a bit harsh but it rhymes with heroes so it was more artistic licence). I think the huge difference between people doing things they spend their lives training for and people doing something to get their face on TV (which seems to be a common trend) is fairly obvious. What has the amount they get paid and whether I would go in to the house got to do with it?
