Am I a celebrity?

I am led to believe by my Sky+ box that "I'm a Celebrity" has started again this week.  While I couldn't be less interested in who is eating Marsupial scrotum, I couldn't help noticing who this years "celebrities" were. So, one by one:

1. Brian Paddick, Former Copper and Politician.  Famous for being homosexual. 

2. Dani Behr, TV Presenter, famous for The Word? I certainly can't recall anything she's done since 1995

3. Joe Swash, No idea. Was in Eastenders apparently. 

4. Carly Zucker, Not a clue. Joe Cole's girlfriend.  Wow.  "A" list.

5. Nicola McClean, Model, married to a Peterborough player.  (Yeah, Peterborough. Impressive)

6. Martina Navratilova, tennis playing lesbian. 

7. Esther Rantzen, famous for her massive teeth, and shows about other talking horses in the 80's

8. Kilroy, Famous for Kilroy, and Arab-bashing which got him sacked from Kilroy.

9. Simon Webbe, the talented one from Blue (His solo stuff was good too.  Shame it's come to this Webbe), and Mancunian, therefore, should win.

10. GEORGE EFFING TAKEI!  You will notice a space between George and the rest of these lot. This is because he shouldn't be in there.  Not in the jungle, not in the list, not even in the same post as all these other hasbeens and wannabes.  This is George Takei.  Sulu from Star Trek, and more importantly, Hiro Nakamura's Dad. If you don't realise why that is so monumental, then you need to get out more.  Or more accurately, stay in and watch telly more.

We have the power of Gods. That doesn't mean we can play God.

What the hell has happened since he stopped being in Heroes that has caused him to find it necessary to do this "Z" list nonsense?  I'm sure it was a big coup for the producers of IACGMOOH (Pronounced EYE-AH-CUG-MOO), but you just know that they have only gone after George so that there are two gay men in the jungle.  That's how these idiots work.  They presume that putting two gay men in a confined environment will result in gay rudies.  After all, gay men are all promiscuous, aren't they? (CLUE: No, no they're not)

It's really quite depressing that reality TV is allowed to exist, solely to promote failing celebrities or aid the creation of new, evil celebs.  (I'm looking at you Goody) I really wish I had more faith in the British public and could trust people to just stop watching this garbage, and they would stop making it.

I mean, for god's sake, they've got George.  Who's next? Prince Charles?
