You know you've seen them on TV before but just can't place the face to the TV show?Lisa and Mario are serial reality show contestants and here's the list of shows they have appeared on. If anyone can add to the list then feel free to comment.
Lisa was a contestant on:-
Gladiators
Kitchen Criminals
Body Heat
Mario has appeared on:-
Brits Behind Bars
Brits Behind Bars
Deal or No Deal
Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway
The Brits Behind Bars show, where we send our minor criminals to one of Americas most dangerous toughest jails, is one of my little lad's favourite shows. He was a bit surprised to see Mario on BB, "That's not Mario mum!" he declared. No just a blatantly obvious desperate wannabee with an obvious criminal record. I believe the British men held records for offences such as GBH or possession of drugs; the idea of the show was to scare them into reforming. More like a good way of getting TV fame for dear Mario?
We all know that BB is used as a platform for fame, you only have to watch last night's Little Brother to see the audience full of past contestants to see how it has helped some transform their lives. With Mario and Lisa, we are looking at two people who are not true lovers of BB but only there for what they can get out of it. I doubt they have put on their application forms that they are there for the experience as the psychs will have worked them out as self loving, egotistical, zealots.
Here's a link to the Liverpool Daily Post where reporter Peter Elson spots their wannabee desperation a mile off; http://www.liverpooldailypost.co.uk/liverpool-life-features/liverpool-special-features/2007/08/11/lisa-cooks-up-a-storm-64375-19609520/ Its funny and well written so click and have a giggle. Apparently for instance while filming Kitchen Nightmares Lisa's heavy perfume wearing was considered a fire hazard and that she would be the 'flambe' - Oh I love it.
And if you have any more info on our reality gruesome twosome then please comment.
