Punx not dead
=v= John Lydon (née Johnny Rotten) has walked out on the filming of I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!
He told programme-makers he was "bored" and "wanted some chocolate".
He is now holed up in a luxury hotel on the Gold Coast and will be barred from returning to the set.
In a sense, I have to side with chocolate over the phony reality of reality programming. But how will the punker-than-thou set feel?
Does anybody know how John Lydon came to be on the show in the first place? For the first time ever I was kinda curious about a RealityTeeVee show, but didn't actually watch it. Did they ask him or did he think it would be good for a laugh? Was it a PR thing? Did money change hands?
My curiousity must be sated!
