Big Money for Big Brother
71-year-old Louis Walsh shocked fans by disclosing that he received a whopping £850,000 for his appearance on Celebrity Big Brother. This jaw-dropping amount came after three years of pursuit by show producers.
More Than Expected
Initial reports suggested Walsh was set to earn half a million for his time in the house, but the actual figure surpassed this estimate. Walsh clarified that the offer kept increasing as producers were determined to have him on board.
Not in it to Win it
Despite the lucrative paycheck, Walsh revealed that he had no desire to win the show and was initially hesitant to participate. He expressed his preference for a low-profile life and distaste for the celebrity world.
Irish Bluntness
Walsh's time on the show was marked by candid and sometimes controversial comments about other celebrities. He attributed this to his Irish background, stating that he tends to speak his mind.
Regrets and Reflection
Reflecting on his outspoken nature, Walsh admitted that he may have crossed the line at times but maintained that his comments were not meant with malice. He acknowledged that no one is perfect and that he is known for his candidness.
Despite his candid remarks, Walsh defended his comments as simply being true to himself and not intended to harm others.
