Big Brother 8 Ziggy Video | In His Former Life As Boy Band Member of ‘Northern Line’

by

I was going to save this until Ziggy was actually evicted from the Big Brother house, but he’s hanging on in there so well that I think the time is well overdue. Before Big Brother 8, Ziggy was already semi famous, being a member of a boy band called ‘Northern Line’ for a few years. I say semi famous because these lads were not exactly Take That, and didn’t actually do very well.

They did have one song which did ok though called ‘Love On The Northern Line’ and this is the video for it.

It’s pony (pony and trap = crap) isn’t it? I was going to try and tell you which one Ziggy was in the video by saying “the gay looking one with the black shirt half open showing his navel”, but that applies to all of them.

It seemed to be the fashion back in 2000 to have boy bands be quite metro sexual, appealing to both women and gay men. That would never happen now would it? And not just to boost record sales!

I’m convinced Ziggy won’t win Big Brother, God I hope he doesn’t, Brian deserves it all the way. But I reckon Ziggy may well be persuaded to reform ‘Northern Line’ for the right money. Will they do any better the 2nd time around? On the strength of this long lost performance not a chance.
