Celebrity Big Brother 2006 (UK) - Ranking of Fame

Ranking of Fame

On Day 4, the housemates were asked to arrange themselves in order of fame from most famous to least. Chantelle had to avoid being the least famous in the lineup in order to remain. She succeeded as both Preston and Maggot ranked themselves as less famous. Michael Barrymore immediately placed himself at number 1 and refused to move despite there being some debate among the housemates as to whether he or Dennis Rodman was the most famous, given that Barrymore is very famous in the UK while Rodman has a higher profile in the US and probably globally. George Galloway argued that Michael should be ranked first, it being a British show. He also later suggested, in a conversation with Rula, that globally he may have the most fame, claiming that most of the 1.3 billion Muslims in the world know of him. Michael later threw a massive tantrum, seemingly targeting Jodie because she had suggested that both Dennis and Traci would be more famous than Michael globally. The housemates ranked themselves as follows:

1. Michael
2. Dennis
3. Pete
4. George
5. Traci
6. Rula
7. Jodie
8. Faria
9. Chantelle
10. Preston
11. Maggot
