Ultimate Big Brother - The Beginning

When I first heard about Ultimate Big Brother I could not have been more excited. My favourite housemates living together and competing for champion of champions? What is not to love!


The cast of UBB has been kept very secret. You might remember a week or so ago I posted a blog which included a promo poster for UBB. It fueled my excitement that some of those people would be back and I am kind of disappointed. 

So first of all we have Josie, the winner of Big Brother 11!

She left the Big Brother house crowned the winner of the current series, had her interview with Davina and then made her way back into the house! She was literally outside for 20 minutes! Josie deserves to be there so much! She is a legend and rightfully takes her place amongst other Big Brother legends... or so we thought!




Next to enter the house was Chantelle Houghton, the winner of Celebrity Big Brother 4!

Chantelle went into the CBB house as a non celebrity. The twist that year was, send in a normal girl and make her other housemates believe she is a celebrity like them! Brilliant! It worked too since she won! Since leaving the house originally she got married to Preston from the Ordinary Boy's whom she met in the house. They divorced after 9 months. Chantelle also modeled and acted. She was a nice enough girl in CBB4 and still is I presume so not a bad choice but I would have preferred someone else. Definitely not the best Big Brother has to offer. 




Next to enter was Preston from Celebrity Big Brother 4! 

YES! You read correct! As Chantelle went in, next to follow her was only her bloody ex-husband! GENIUS! This is just draaamaaa waiting to happen and kudos on Big Brother for doing that. While I take no joy in a couple's marriage failing, seeing these two in the house together will be enjoyable! Preston is from the band The Ordinary Boys, who did that song and then split up but got back together again after Preston got 'famous' and then split again as soon as we forgot who he was. Another reunion perhaps? Haha.




Next to get back in the house was Nadia Almada who won Big Brother 5!

The girl/former man who showers in stiletto's is back! And it's fantastic to see her. Nadia, who is from Portugal (which is where I'm off to on holiday a week today) used to be a man. Get over it! Every person to their own I say. It doesn't make a difference to me what so ever. I love Nadia for who she is. She is one of my favourite housemates ever! Did you know she released a song? You should listen to it! It's a fantastic song. Go Nadia!




Next to go back was Brain Dowling, the winner of Big Brother 2!

Another one of my favourite housemates ever! Brian is just amazing. He won the first series I ever watched! He's just a funny, nice guy. After winning, Brian went into presenting. He presented SMTV: Live and many other things. He also continued taking part in reality shows, such as Hell's Kitchen! Brian is going to be a great housemate! He's witty and hilarious. What is there not to love!




Next to enter was Ulrika Johnson, winner of Celebrity Big Brother 6!

Ulrika Johnson is one of these people where you either like or her don't. I like her. I have no problem with her. She never really crossed my radar until CBB6. She seemed a decent enough person and I was glad she won. Ulrika can be seen on Shooting Stars which is a weird terrible show :| 




Next in was Makosi Musambasi who came 3rd in Big Brother 6!

Most famous for having "sexual intercourse" with Anthony Hutton in the pool and then asking for a pregnancy test, Makosi was a decent housemate. Full of draaamaaa which is want we love, but so annoying. She hasn't really done anything since leaving the house. (She couldn't even remember what series she was in) I dont expect her to do well in UBB, but good luck to her. And for crying out loud do not let her in the pool. 




Next to come back was John McCririck who took part in Celebrity Big Brother 3!

The less said about this 'thing' the better. As he said when we went in, "JOHN OUT! JOHN OUT!" Vile man.




Moving on, next to enter was Coolio who finished 3rd in Celebrity Big Brother 6!

Has-been. 




Next to enter was Nikki Grahame, who finished 5th in Big Brother 7!

My favourite housemate ever! I was waiting all night for her to arrive. "WHO IS SHE?" Nikki is a serious contender to win this. She's a legend in her own right. Since leaving Big Brother, she went on to have her own show, won a National Television Award and wrote 2 books! I love Nikki. 




Finally the last person to enter was Nick Bateman from Big Brother 1!

Nasty Nick is back. He was on the scene before my time. I started watching from series 2, but Nasty Nick is a big part of Big Brother history and I pretty much know everything. Once the most hated man in Britain for writing names on a piece of paper ( god we were easily shocked back then) Nick is back and I suppose he has a right to be there. I'm glad they have someone from the first series. 


So that's your lot. What do you think? Are you happy with the Ultimate Big Brother housemates? Who would you change? Let us know. 


P.S: Word is 2 more housemates will enter the house after the first eviction on Friday! So make sure you watch!
