Aisleyne on Sky News

09 June 2010

After setting the scene, Kay was confident that her audience would "instantly recognise" her guest, "BB7 housemate Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace" and could not resist making her first words to Aisleyne "Better know yourself little girl."

They first had a look at the new set. "That's our sofas from our year!", Aisleyne cried. "I get so jealous and think 'that's my house' when new people are invading."

Kay then explored with Aisleyne the feelings of being in such a confined space, living so closely with other people, and under the eye of the cameras 24/7.

Aisleyne went on to describe the paranoia created by nominations and evictions, of gameplans and wondering what the housemates and public think of you.

"Are you glad you did it?" asked Kay. "Completely. Best thing I've ever done." said Aisleyne. They then spoke about being manipulated and edited by the producers. Aisleyne pointed out "You know they do that when you sign up. If you don't say things they can't edit it."

Kay then asked a series of questions about the whole Big Brother experience, from "What will the housemates be doing right now?" through the entrance, getting on with difficult people, the boredom and eventual coming out back into "the real world". Aisleyne said that she still can't go to the shops without being recognised.

After a little banter about housemates' motives for going in, Kay commented that, since BB7, Aisleyne had been successful, and Ash listed a few of her accomplishments, including her fashion label, her autobiography and her work with Charlie Brooker. She had a few small regrets about some of the things she had done, but doing BB was not one of them.

Her summary advice to housemates was " Be true to who you are."

Finally, and mindful of that day's announcement of a BB All-stars immediately following BB11, Kay asked "Would you do it again?" Aisleyne paused VERY thoughtfully and eventually said "Perhaps, but this time I'd wear more make-up".

Well it's obvious to us that Sky News know which housemates will be recognised by their viewers and will make good television, so we
are perfectly clear in our minds that Aisleyne is a true Big Brother All-Star, so she definitely belongs in that house.

Do you hear us, Endemol? Do you hear us, Aisleyne?
