Question

Does appearing on the reality show Big Brother as a Housemate give you the right to call yourself a celebrity?

Answer 1

No, it depends how much work you do afterwards, eg

-Photoshoots (though how much do these count?)

-Singles

-TV appearances

-Their own reality TV show (eg Chanelle Hayes, Wannabe Popstar)

-Another Reality TV show (eg Grace Adams-Short was on Cirque De Celebrite)

Answer 2

Not automatically, from my point of view...

A Celebrity is someone famous.  It depends on how far in the game, how they carried themselves, and whether or not they stayed in the entertainment Industry and furthered their career.

There's an old (but true) saying by Andy Warhol:  "We're ALL 'famous' for 15 minutes".. But that doesn't make us all celebrities.. True.:)

Answer 3

No, then you're just that person who gets recognized more.

Answer 4

No

Answer 5

Of course it does - not A list admitttedly. As a celebrity you can flog the story of your uneventful life (or get your kit off) for the mags for money, for doing nothing more than appearing in a freak show. The media decides who are celebrities - Pete Docherty, Amy Winehouse, Keith Allen's daughter, need I say more?

Answer 6

no it gets to be known more but not at all a celebrity( maybe unless you are a winner..) since that would mean you were the most popular amonst other housemates...
