Where Are They Now?

Poor Caleb is trying to book a gig on next years The Block (with Matt) and as a travel presenter by posting his audition online.
So Lady Gaga isnt the only one who lives for the applause-plause...
 
Thought I'd mention this even though it's not a big deal - nothing particularly juicy but a true story nevertheless.

Anyone remember Geneva from BB05? She had a crush on Hotdogs and was young and kind of annoying (I found). I really didn't like her in the house. She was a pain in the arse.

I did, however, find myself in a position where she was my co-worker for the grand total of 3 days a couple of years back. I had got a temp job at a small, up market recruitment company and it was her job to train me up. I didn't recognise her immediately. I kept trying to place her and then it hit me.

I have to say she was very, very lovely. We didn't talk much about anything other than the job at hand (I certainly didn't go "Wow, I've seen you naked on TV!!!" which quite honestly went through my mind several times haha). Our boss was an absolute prick of a man. Like a stereotype of the evil, mean, nasty bad boss. I was used to a sales environment in which positive reinforcement was used as a motivator as opposed to the "Get in the trenches and get me a sale or you're fired!!" mentality. I'm generally a very good sales person but I floundered under the pressure. I basically felt this guy breathing down my neck and stumbled in my pitch several times. Geneva seemed very aware of what a dickhead this guy was and seemed to do everything in her power to make me feel more comfortable. At one point she actually sighed, put her hand on my shoulder and said softly "Seriously, you're actually doing great considering... Don't let him get to you". I was in the position where they could fire me at any time because it was only a temp position while she had the advantage of being a full timer. In spite of that she was still very wary of the boss. It was the most uncomfortable working environment I've ever been privy to. The office of seven lowered their voices when they talked to each other. Everyone was on edge constantly. Terrible. I ended up taking a day off to ""re-evaluatee my career prospects" knowing that they'd sack me - I needed them too so I was eligible for the dole haha.

But yes. Geneva BB05. Bitch on the show. Lovely in person.
 
Simon Deering (Hotdogs) is reportedly getting married getting married next year in Japan!

I despised her on the show so i'm glad to hear that she is so lovely!

I saw this article recently which also changed my opinion of her and it talks about her work too, how ironic!

Gosh I had no idea Susannah had been stalked. I was disappointed when she stopped posting here but now I understand why.
 
I saw David from BB06 at QVB in Sydney two weeks ago.

He's not aging well... And always wears flannel!

The last time I spotted Joel from BB07 was about two years ago at Central station in Sydney. He was wearing a tight tank top and looked really fit and hot!
 
I also saw Layla last week at the X-Factor live shows. She was on the complete other side of the crowd and was nice enough to take photos with LOTS of people. Almost everyone noticed her and she's looking hot and fit lately!

At one point she walked past me, I wish I had taken a photo!
 
Does anyone else have stories of meeting housemates? Doesn't have to be recent or from any series. It's just interesting to hear about.

Wow, she is now psychologically disturbed? I did hear Bree see on FNL that Elle hasn't bothered contacting her, since i remember them and another housemate discussing that they were planning a trip to Thailand while they were in the house....so much for "we'll stay friends after this."



My sister saw her like 3 months back. She still lives on the Gold Coast, still being the curvaceous hooker that she is. :p :rolleyes:
