EXCUSE me, but isn't this what you want, really?
Why on earth did 83 Big Brother aficionados complain to media regulator Ofcom last week about Kinga's racy antics?
Channel 4 said it received numerous other complaints, but how can you possibly complain about trash when the whole programme is just that – trash.
From what I can tell, Big Brother fulfils a social need. The British love to moan. And what better television show is there to moan about than BB? It's taken over from the weather.
But don't bother writing to the programme makers. They love to shock and the current Big Brother housemates have been such a boring bunch the show needed some uplift. So, after her topless appearance in the pool, does Kinga, it seems.
Unfortunately she's never going to emulate Jade Goody, who has established herself as a one-woman entertainment industry despite being quite devoid of any discernible talent.
Mind when I saw Jade's autobiography staring at me from the shelves of WH Smith at the weekend I admit I had to give the girl credit. I somehow don't see any of the present BB housemates achieving more than their bare 15 minutes' worth of fame. But don't complain to me.
