Big Brother legend says young lads 'still fancy me' after huge career change
A Big Brother legend has admitted young lads "still fancy" her after she made huge career change.
Lisa Appleton, 55, starred on the iconic show 15 years ago where she soared to fame. She appeared alongside then-boyfriend Mario Malcone, making Big Brother history as the first couple to enter the house together. The TV star recently revealed she had picked up a new job to help pay the bills.
She started working for Amazon, where she was expected to deliver 167 parcels a day. Lisa ended up packing in the job and switched to making money online through OnlyFans. The former bodybuilder confessed it was all down to her fan base. “I’m really flattered, I’m so grateful. I’m quite shy and humble about myself. I think, ‘god there’s so many fit birds out there and I’m 55’.

The Big Brother star had a rough time after the show (Instagram/mslisaappleton)“They’re all young men. You should see my private messages. The amount of people who want to take me out for a meal, it’s really tickled me," she told Closer. "There are hundreds of them.” When leaving the Big Brother house into the world of fame, host Davina McCall commented during her eviction interview she had received the best reception anyone had received. Lisa and Mario won over the nation, and each other's hearts, after he romantically proposed to her in the house.
They were quickly swept up into the celebrity lifestyle, being offered magazine deals and lavish holidays. However, things took a turn for Lisa after work dried up, not only did she end up in a rat-infested council house on benefits, it also saw the end of her marriage. “When I came out of Big Brother it went crazy for a good couple of years,” Lisa told the Manchester Evening News. “But after a few years of highs, I hit rock bottom. Work dried up and I ended up on benefits. It was the lowest moment of my life."

She added: “Everyone still recognised me, but little did they know I was living in a rat infested council house, suffering with depression, clinging onto my marriage." The breakdown of her marriage to Mario was particularly hard for Lisa. She was thrust back into the tabloids in 2018 when it transpired that she was living rough in a treehouse in a bid to find a job. "I was even applying for regular jobs but people didn’t want to employ me because I was too well known and assumed I wouldn’t take it seriously."
To help pay the bills, and move out of squalor, Lisa took the step of creating an Onlyfans site, where she shares sexy videos and photos with subscribers. She confessed it "didn't bother" her to be photographed like that as "everyone saw me in my underwear, no makeup on, bikinis" on Big Brother. Lisa shared how the response to her joining the website was "incredible" and she also knew "it would help pay the bills".
