Preston to win!

Posted January 16, 2006 10:14 PM.

Sometimes it's difficult when you're writing a weblog to know how to change tone - you've just written something trivial and flighty, and now want to talk about something real and serious that matters to a lot of people. It can be hard to know how to handle that transition. And it's such a challenge that I find myself confronting today, but I feel it must be done. I must stand up and state that Celebrity Big Brother is an extraordinary bit of television that's slightly eating my brain, and that only one man is fit to win! So stand up and be counted, webloggers of Britain. It's time to start our campaigning in earnest! Preston to win!

Apologies to any visiting Americans who haven't got the wonder of Celebrity Big Brother in their lives. You're really missing out. Cough. Preston to win!

Comments

Please stay on-topic, informative and polite. I reserve the right to remove comments for whatever vague capricious reasons seem reasonable at the time.

Are you kidding? Chantelle rocks!!!

So much for bloggers only write drivel. Here's a useful debate, finally.

P.S. Has anyone else noted that on Orange's WAP Portal, you can already buy topless & bikini pictures of Chantelle that were apparently taken beforehand in anticipation of her staying in the house.

He seems to have let a 10 year old draw all over him. Strange.

Posted by: Simon Thornton at January 16, 2006 11:01 PM

What's going on with the Star-Trek-esque ear in that picture? I say Pete to win, because I love seeing the guy suffer.

Not you as well? The whole country seems to have gone Celebrity Big Brother and Preston mad!

I did an interview with him last September when he came to Jersey with the Ordinary Boys to play Jersey Live - between September and January we'd had just 4 comments on the feature - within 1 week of CBB we'd had 75.

This is going to do a LOT for The Ordinary Boys - in this case the gamble of going in the house will have paid off big time.

50 notes on Pete Burnt, seriously... Preston is not entertaining enough.

Posted by: paulpod at January 17, 2006 12:22 AM

Paul, you're on drugs! He's so entirely entertaining enough! He dresses up as skeletons, he's got a sense of humour, he fronts a dodgy rock outfit, he's foxy as all get out. What more do you want?! To Max though - okay 50/50 on Chantelle - I'm quite keen on her too, although I don't think our love affair with their love affair can really last more than a week or so. At which point something's going to go horribly wrong.

It's such a relief, you know, just really getting down and talking about crap rather than all this internet stuff that I love in a very different angsty way.

And don;t forget the reatest servbice known to man - making George Galloway act like a cat and drink Rula lenska's cream. If that doesn't shut him up then I don;t know what would!

Posted by: Ewan Spence at January 17, 2006 9:16 AM

Weren't the ordinary Boy's dropped by their label a few weeks ago and then hastily resigned after Preston went into the CBB house?

Or is that just an ugly rumour?

Posted by: Rob at January 17, 2006 9:42 AM

With his tattoos, rock credentials and slightly curmudgeonly air, Preston is the epitome of a 21st century gentleman. I want him to win too. And he's a cutie.

Posted by: Lubin Odana at January 17, 2006 10:19 AM

Preston Schmeston. Pete Burns all the way, I say. Post-human, vile, wondrous.

Posted by: Jack Mottram at January 17, 2006 2:43 PM

A question from an American fan of British music:

Is this the same show that Bez from the Happy Mondays was on? Oh how I would have liked to see that one!

Posted by: Kevin at January 17, 2006 5:48 PM

Well, full marks for managing to sneak an incredibly small dog into the house.

Posted by: Greg K Nicholson at January 17, 2006 6:31 PM

praston and chantelle should hook up. i think they already have.

Posted by: AMy at January 18, 2006 7:58 PM

Do my eyes deceive me or has Tom actually typed a completely trashy, shallow post? I never thought I'd see the day. I expect this kind of thing from Lubin but Tom what has come over you (so to speak)? Still at least you picked the very droolsome Preston to begin your foray into the trash side of life !!

Posted by: PoetX at January 19, 2006 8:26 PM

preston is sweet in his own way. But ugly. All my friends like him apart from MIMI but she thinks sweet but he smokes. MIMI and I think that smoking is bad and he should stop it now. Then he will be a better person. My friend RANA is a perve and so is Preston.
