February 1, 201510 yr Author :D :D :D 50 Katie Schepis (BBAU, 20th) http://cdn.mamamia.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Katie-Big-Brother.jpg Katie was an excellent casting choice, I was excited for her from when I saw her little preview VT. Unlike Gemma (who featured in the worst countdown), Katie actually delivered -for her short stay. Paired with Priya on launch night, Katie was made the first power housemate along with Priya and had to make some big decisions. Katie played it well, but her differing opinions with Priya made them clash somewhat. Katie was headstrong, feisty and brought some drama with her outspoken nature. However, Australia didn’t take to her much (although she was up against eventual finalists Priya and Travis and the initially hugely popular Cat) and she evicted third, in a double eviction along with incredibly hot dullard Dion. I feel that her leaving that so early was a waste of potential, that series probably could have done with some drama because it was all “LOOK AT THIS SHIT RELATIONSHIP, LOOK AT IT” at times... 49 Caleb Reynolds (BBUS, 4th) http://cdn.bigbrothernetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/BB16-0702-Caleb-hoh-room.jpg Look at the picture and you’ll know a certain part of my body that isn’t my head may have influenced this… But jokes aside, the psycho stalker mess that was Caleb was hilarious to watch and never offended me that much or anything. His fixation on Amber dominated the first few weeks, and was just another level of creepy :lol: He would follow her, talk to her all the time, start on the seating plan for the wedding and the starer for the meal afterwards… She was clearly not interested but he just kept on. I thought they’d have binned him in the early stages for being a bit of a liability game wise, but he was in pretty much all the major alliances and managed to go most of the way in the game. He was probably the most likeable of the “in crowd” (if we discount Victoria who I still think they kinda just kept for less competition, and it wasn’t just for his godly body I swear) in the end, not that that was difficult…. Thighs tho https://36.media.tumblr.com/1e620a210c0d725...n1ucto1_500.jpg Dat ass tho http://uploadir.com/u/aqq9g66p (no more slutty posts. Probably. There’s nobody as hot as Caleb coming up anyway x) 48 Richard Burr (Great British Bake Off, runner-up) http://community.magnettrade.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/img-03.png Ah, lovely Richard. Richard is a builder and baker, unlikely combo but it works as he was Star Baker an unprecedented five times! He was a lovely guy, he was like the cool dad of your best friend who’d prefer you to his own son :lol: His bakes were often so far ahead of the pack he seemed like a foregone conclusion he would storm to the win, but his only couple of bad weeks sadly for him came towards the end and he wasn’t even in top form in the final! He clearly has a career in baking ahead, but he had to settle for runner-up, along with Louis (who really should have been in my hate list, god he annoyed me). 47 Winston Showan (BBUK, 7th) http://i1.cdnds.net/14/27/618x347/bb_winston.jpg There wasn’t REALLY much to Winston, and he was sadly aligned with horrible Helen, Mark, Ash etc. but he was a decent guy I think, just kept the wrong company. Pretty much all the housemates (and a lot of the public for most of the run!) had Winston pegged as the winner, so his eviction was easily the biggest shock of the series both within the house and on the outside. He wasn’t someone I’d have necessarily wanted to win because he didn’t do much, but despite his awful company I found him to be very likeable and harmless. He did have his bad moments, but hey. 46 Jason Roses (BBAU, 15th) As the sidekick to Priya, I was bound to get to like him! Jason was pretty much the better version of Ben Zabel. He was the token gay, a bit emotional but also very likeable which I found wasn’t also the case with Ben (I was almost certain he was somewhat fake)! Within the house he was hugely popular, and was tipped by many of his fellow contestants to win. Sadly, Australia didn’t feel the same way and he was a shock exit in the 6th week having received less votes to save than Ryan, David and Ryan. I always did think he’d do a Ben but I think he’d last longer than he did :( :D :D :D
February 1, 201510 yr Am I the only one who thinks Helen wasn't that bad? Like yes she was a bitch but I mean Tamara, Pauline, Matthew, Kimberly, Steven, Zoe, Mark, Winston and Pav were all more offensive whether it be through being more boring or more nasty Edited February 1, 201510 yr by Daniel_
February 1, 201510 yr Author Am I the only one who thinks Helen wasn't that bad? Like yes she was a bitch but I mean Tamara, Pauline, Matthew, Kimberly, Steven, Zoe, Mark, Winston and Pav were all more offensive whether it be through being more boring or more nasty SHe has a couple of fans on here :lol: Tamera, Matthew and Zoe were certainly NOWHERE near as bad as her. I loved Matthew! Winston was so boring :P I liked him :(
February 2, 201510 yr Author 45 Rochelle Pitt (X Factor AU, 8th) http://dailypostal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Screen-Shot-2014-08-10-at-2.49.24-PM.png I didn’t really like Rochelle when the live shows started; I found her quite big headed and she seemed like not such a nice person… But her performances on the live shows were brilliant! She was kinda pigeonholed as the mumsy belter, but I think her perfomances showed a sense of artistry and her voice was always on point. Her highlight was History Repeating in week 1, because it’s not at all what you’d have expected from someone like her. The styling for her performance was absoltuely hilarious though, no wonder she was eliminated then :rofl: 44 Hayley Tammadon (Dancing On Ice, 2nd) http://files.stv.tv/imagebase/211/623x349/211039-hayley-tamaddon.jpg Currently torturing us with her awful Corrie character Andrea Beckett, Hayley also spent some of 2014 competing in the All Stars series of Dancing On Ice, which was also its last. She won in 2010, three years after leaving her role Delilah Dingle in Emmerdale (significantly better than Andrea!) which was what made her famous. Hayley’s iconic Jai Ho routine is probably my favourite DOI routine ever, so it was brilliant to see that reprised. In her series, she was my favourite ever, but as you’ll see in the same bunch one contestant was better than her in the context of this series. 43 Anja Nissen (The Voice AU, WINNER) http://entertainmentbureau.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Anja-Nissen.jpg I get the impression that the general consensus on Anja was that she was a bit of a crap winner. Sure, she’s nothing we haven’t seen before but I love her voice and she was always on point! I think having will.i.am. as a mentor didn’t help, he’s never the best person to guide you! She pretty much just sang a lot of big ballads, but she had the voice for it so why not? Really, this is The Voice and that’s what she has - she’s just sadly not much of a popstar I guess. Her winning was so random though, she was actually eliminated in the semi final but brought back as a wildcard pretty much right away and won the next week… Anyway, they’ve given her a horrifically generic will.i.am. song as her debut, so I doubt she’ll be getting anywhere (it peaked at #42 or something in Aus). 42 Victoria Rafaeli (BBUS, 3rd) http://www.stockingblue.com.nyud.net/wp-content/uploads/bb1613vv.jpg Victoria was almost completely irrelevant for the whole run, but I really liked her. She played hardly any game (she won Veto once and Battle Of The Block twice I think), but she played a great floater game really. She was aligned with the right people, so when she was nominated (pretty much every week as a pawn to ensure the other person went) they all kept her in. Outside of the fact she was a non-entity game wise, Victoria was pretty funny and very likeable, especially in her diary room segments. I really wanted to play the perfect game move and win, it would have been amazing to see her beat Derrick and Cody. On another note, I’d rather Cody won in the end, but oh well. He isn’t in this countdown though so clearly wasn’t that great :P 41 Kate Henry (Great British Bake Off, 6th) http://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/20/590x/secondary/197528.jpg Just missing out on the top 40 is furniture restorer Kate, who was pretty fabulous. She was a bit of a QoL all the way through, and I felt she was someone I could really root for. Her bakes were fairly consistent, and she had a lot of praise, except for maybe the time the ham in her bread was still raw :lol: And of course her elimination. I kinda find it hard to say anything about Bake Off contestants, but I like them, that's enough! :P
February 2, 201510 yr Victoria :wub: Easily one of my favourite reality contestants from 2014, only because she looked like she was completely out of it the majority of the time and didn't have a clue where she was or what game she was supposed to be playing! :lol:
February 2, 201510 yr I loved it when Victoria was bigging herself up in the Diary Room as if she had this massive game plan :lol: She was very lucky to even make it past the first couple or so weeks!
February 2, 201510 yr Author Victoria :wub: Easily one of my favourite reality contestants from 2014, only because she looked like she was completely out of it the majority of the time and didn't have a clue where she was or what game she was supposed to be playing! :lol: That was her appeal really :lol: Kate :wub: She was amazing on TGBBO :wub: I loved it when Victoria was bigging herself up in the Diary Room as if she had this massive game plan :lol: She was very lucky to even make it past the first couple or so weeks! I remember thinking every time for the first three or four weeks or so "bye Victoria", then I kinda forgot and then began to love her for her perfect floater game :lol:
February 7, 201510 yr Author :D :D :D 40 Darcy Oake (Britain’s Got Talent, 5th) Darcy was pretty much the best of Britain’s Got Talent in 2014… In fact, he was about all that a pretty crap series had to offer! As well as what you see above (:smoke:) Darcy’s magic act was genuinely thrilling and exciting, his audition really had me gripped! That was certainly a welcome change from endless predictable kid singers and dancers or classical acts….. Admittedly, we kind of knew what was coming in his final performance (and that’s why magic acts often struggle on BGT) as we’d seen him twice already, but regardless I loved his act. 39 Pixie Lott (Strictly Come Dancing, 6th) http://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/79/590x/pixie-lott-strictly-507528.jpg Poor Pixie </3 Not content with her most recent album bombing, Pixie tried her hand at the BBC celebrity ballroom dancing show. Pixie wowed the judges each week, and was pretty much always near the top of the leaderboard. She was a frontrunner to win and I still think she was probably the most talented of the bunch… However she landed in the bottom 2 with SIMON BLOODY WEBBE and ended up being sent home in the dance-off by the judges, probably just to facilitate a shock elimination because she was 2nd on the scoreboard that week. That, or perhaps the public didn’t take to her but tbh she seemed likeable and the public did vote Caroline effing Flack as the winner weeks later... 38 XOX (The X Factor AU, 10th) http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/09/03/1409731663553_Image_galleryImage_XOX_from_X_Factor_includi.JPG Ugh, it sucks how underrated these girls were! Of Dannii’s groups, these were the only ones with REAL talent and potential, but I don’t know what went wrong :( They were bottom 2 in the second week against their (awful) fellow group Younger Than Yesterday but thankfully the judges unanimously voted to eliminate Younger Than Yesterday. However, they fell back there two weeks later and weren’t as lucky against Natalie’s boy Tee - only their mentor Dannii voted to eliminate Tee :( These girls were modern, polished and had an incredible rapper in Serenity. Tbf the talent was so incredible that most of the acts ahead of them were great anyway but they were too good to just be 10th :( 37 Milk (RuPaul’s Drag Race, 9th) http://i61.tinypic.com/346km11.jpg Milk was an odd one… Throughout the series, her style raised eyebrows and had everyone talking - from her choice to wear a beard in drag to her bizarre decision to dress as male RuPaul in a Ru focused runway challenge! She isn’t your typical drag queen, but that’s what I love. Similarly to Sharon Needles, she brought something rarely seen in Drag Race that can’t really be replicated. That’s what I want in a drag queen, that “x factor” (for want of a better word) - not just a paegant queen who smiles and looks pretty. There are still three Drag Race alumni to come though! 36 Beth Tweddle (Dancing On Ice, 3rd) http://i6.cdnds.net/13/50/450x450/dancing-on-ice-2014-contestants-beth-tweddle-handbag.jpg The second of two entrants for Dancing On Ice’s all star series, Olympic gymnast Beth Tweddle! Just a year after winning DOI, Beth returned for the final series which pitted her against classic contestants, and she really held her own. Beating out most of them, she managed to get to the final and I think of them all she went on a journey (again - she really improved over the course of her first series too) and got even better. She’s such a lovely lady too! :D :D :D
February 7, 201510 yr Author 35 Only The Young (X Factor UK, 7th) http://cdn.funkidslive.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/tumblr_static_tumblr_static_dp0cibony144ks88sgw880swc_1280.jpg From the auditions stage, I always knew these guys were a breath of fresh air! They started off the live shows as potential dark horses, but they did land in the bottom 2 in week 3 and were frankly lucky to survive after one of the worst sing-off performances of all time… But I’ll put that down to nerves because they really had “it”otherwise. There was a “gap in the market” to use the old cliche, and they were good fun without being a novelty act. Their best performance was definitely Monster Mash <3 34 Alison Hammond (Strictly Come Dancing, 10th) http://i2.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article4174856.ece/alternates/s615/Alison-Hammond.jpg The second highest out of all the Strictly contestants! I watched this series almost solely for Alison, what a woman <3 I have loved her since Big Brother, I was gutted she was out so soon in I’m A Celebrity and always love her when I see her on This Morning. She’s just a bundle of fun, she doesn’t take herself too seriously and she wasn’t too bad at dancing either so didn’t end up as the annoying novelty act who ousts many talented dancers… Sadly this was a hugely competitive year and she only came 10th :( 33 Sabrina Batshon (The Voice AU, semi-finalist) http://flamewatercircus.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Sabrina-Batshon.jpg The second and final Aussie The Voice contestant is next, she is the second highest out of all The Voice contestants (Britain has beat her!) - although there are a few Aussie singers from another show to come... Sabrina’s powerful voice was her weapon, and she was a potential winner imo! Her most memorable moment was Chandelier, which is obviously a tough song to sing but she made it seem effortless <3 It’s a shame that Jackson Thomas beat her to the final out of Ricky’s team, but he was pretty talented too. 32 Andrea Faustini (X Factor UK, 3rd) http://i.ytimg.com/vi/m3bgTFzfQsU/hqdefault.jpg The Italian cuddly teddy bear <3 Andrea won the hearts of Britain the second he walked in with his pug t-shirt, but you’re lying if you didn’t expect him to be terrible before he sang… But we all love a “SuBo moment”... Andrea opened his mouth and I was stunned from the very first note! So much soul, passion and emotion came out along with the words <3 He was so talented, and a very likeable fun guy too. I kinda want to marry him and buy pugs to name after the Spice Girls… He could easily have won, but I think the producers saw him as a real threat to whoever their intended winner happened to be and he was bussed a bit after around week 4 or 5 (NEVER FORGET the gold painted Andrea who was forced to belt out Relight My Fire on Halloween week). He ultimately came 3rd, landing in the sing-off twice in the process. Interestingly, Lauren Platt was actually above him votes wise in the semi-final so he’s very lucky the judges decided to send him through! 31 Jocasta Odom (BBUS, 11th) Ah Jocasta <3 Much like Victoria earlier in the game, she was so irrelevant game-wise. She played NO game at all, she didn’t even really win anything (aside from Battle Of The Block). However, her diary room moments were quite frankly LIFE GIVING and she’s easily the most gif-able contestant of BB16! She was just fabulous, I wish she had tried a bit more because to be fair the whole point of the game is to play… Arguably Victoria did play by being a floater - she at least made sure she was in with the right people. Sadly, Jocasta was friends with the “outsiders” so she was bumped off fairly quickly.
February 7, 201510 yr Author Jocasta was my favourite. So unnoteworthy gameplaying wise but so hilarious. I think she would have been my fave too if she at least played a floater game like Victoria - like I said she didn't even try and make friends with the right people :lol;
February 7, 201510 yr Only The Young could've been huge :(. They just got the wrong styling/mentor imo. I loved them.
February 8, 201510 yr Author Only The Young could've been huge :(. They just got the wrong styling/mentor imo. I loved them. This is true, they might have been fine if Cheryl, Simon or even Mel had them instead of bloody Louis :lol: Pixie (U) Only The Young <3 I knew your post would be about Pixie :kink:
February 8, 201510 yr Author 30 Chetna Makan (Great British Bake Off, 4th) http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/976x549/p026vhzz.jpg QUEEN OF FLAVOUR <3 Fashion designer Chetna wowed most weeks with her imaginative bakes, each time incorporating different flavours. Her Indian background fed her love of spice, which gave her a bit of an edge over some of the others. If I were to be asked to try someone’s baking from series, I think I’d be adventurous and plump for Chetna’s, she always made you want to taste her creations. 29 Zach Rance (BBUS, 9th) http://www.thebigbrothershow.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Zach-on-Big-Brother-16_article_story_large.jpg Zach was totally mad, but the fact he was such a mess was most of his appeal! He was one of the homoerotic duo "Zankie" (a Tumblr fave right there I can assure you) alongside Frankie Grande, the horrific brother of Ariana, and was initially not too liked tbh. But he soon became a fan favourite and his eviction rocked Twitter, in fact I'd bet that he was probably 2nd to Donny in the America's favourite favourite houseguest vote. Zach was fun, cute, mischievous and always totally entertaining. Maybe not the best player, but he was far better to watch that meticulous Derrick for example.
February 8, 201510 yr LIAM - I've been shit with following over the last week, SO BUSY. Haven't even been contributing to my own countdown. Thoughts/Highlights! Katie: Obviously on mine as well. Cut too soon. Caleb: Yum. Winston: Yay for not making the final! Jason: Sacrificial lamb so Priya could stay. I was fine with him leaving when he did. Victoria: WAII is she on here, Didn't even make the Top 100, probably not even the top 200 for me. Jacosta: Didn't appear in the Top 100 for me, but she did have some *.* moments. But again another sacrificial lamb so someone so much more relevant could stay. Zach: <3. Such a star.

Jason - True dat, seeing as him staying would mean Priya went it's good that he did! But I'd still have him above a good few of those who weren't even up that time :kink: Victoria - nooo </3 Jacosta - I can see what you mean with her and Vic tbf - they played like no game :lol: Zach - saviour of the season really, along wth someone I remember you didn't like who is still to come :smoke:
