Yes, I think that's probably so. Even in CA, the only one Meat has competed in, there are more realistic "tasks" set, plus the objective of raising money for a worthy cause, whereas the prime objective and indeed hope of BB seems to be to provoke conflict between those who have entered the "House". Just my opinion of course.

Except perhaps those who really are not "celebrities" as most of us would consider the term in that they are not known for any particular talent but who gain some headlines from the exposure? It wouldn't surprise me if "White Dee" picked up some TV work on the back of appearing on it this year, but I'd hardly consider her to have a set of skills that were relevant. Remember that unfortunate creature Jade, who made a name for herself on BB by being stupefyingly dense .. didn't she go on to get TV employment of some sort .. and then return as a "celebrity" herself to demonstrate she was racist as well as daft .. plus her mother appeared on CA didn't she? Again, just my perspective of course.
