'Big Brother' TV show contestant Eugene Sully says he wants a job in
commercial radio, now that celebrity work is starting to trail off after three
months.
Having originally given up his new job at the BBC to enter the reality show, and
having earned £50,000 from the TV show and £20,000 from 'Heat' magazine,
Sully now says: "I'm looking into an engineering job at an independent radio
station. If the BBC want me, I would be happy to go back to them."
Explaining his personal experience of celebrity status, he said: "It is a little like
a firework. When I left the house, I was so busy and now it's started to quieten.
I'm a little bit worried the celebrity is starting to run out.”
But Sully says he is still harassed by young girls when he visits nightclubs:
“They ask me to sign their breasts, but I try to stick to the upper area … I am
starting to learn little tricks that people play like those who take photos in clubs
and send them to Heat saying, 'Eugene snogged my best friend'”.
