Gary Busey, Winner Of 'Celebrity Big Brother' UK Criticises Royal Family And Fellow Housemates
Gary Busey was all praises for Great Britain when he won "Celebrity Big Brother" UK, but turned a complete 360° two days after. The 70-year-old also criticised UK's television shows, including "Celebrity Big Brother," his co-housemates and even the Royals!
The once "Celebrity Apprentice" contestant won "Celebrity Big Brother" UK and claimed he was very proud to be the first American to win the show. Winning for him, he shared, was his way to show how much he loves the UK. He even said his experience on "CBB" made him see why there's the word "Great" in front of Britain. In an interview with the Daily Star UK, two days after being declared the winner, Gary shared what he really thinks of the UK, it's Royal family, television shows and the British housemates he had to interact and live with for some months.
"Your royals are from the past. They are just a tradition and symbol of something that meant so much to England way back when—but not now. Now they are more like a sideshow. There's a lot of scandal and misrepresentation of love at Buckingham Palace. Prince Charles and Camilla and Diana and going with the Arab guy. And they're Germans!," claimed Gary of the Royal Family.
He then proceeded to attack the country's television shows. Asked if he likes renowned British shows like "Downtown Abbey," the celebrity was quick to answer he does not watch British TV shows. He particularly shared that he thinks "Dowtown Abbey" is a boring show and that the "Big Brother" UK version is too weak compared to the U.S. version.
He also shared his true feelings, which borders on intense dislike and hatred, for his fellow "CBB" housemates, Deirdre Kelly, better known as Dee, and Lauren Goodger. It was previously reported both female housemates claimed Gary loved flashing his privates at them. He took the opportunity now to defend himself.
Gary said Dee is a liar. "I didn't expose myself to her. I sat on a stool and she came in the door and screamed. I pulled down my trousers to put on a knee pad," he shared. He also added he sleeps in blue-and-white pants every night and Lauren is also lying about him flashing her.
Gary also claimed the other housemates were degrading. He only got along with Audley and is the only housemate he would keep in touch with now that the completion is over.
