Who the actual hell are these people? Celebrities? A 'professional footballer' who's only attended a Premier League game when he bought a ticket to watch it from the crowd? A model and presenter who's biggest achievement is looking decent at 45 after having three children and twice as many plastic surgeries? Come on PP u should know better... This is ridiculous.

These really are an obscure bunch of celebrities and are not really 'A' list by any stretch of the imagination. It will be interesting to see who does come out on top and good luck to all

Well. It's a little bit like I'm a celebrity get me out of here, full of aging has bees, or in most cases, aging never have Been but would have really liked to, playing a game, earning (no doubt) lots of money in the meantime, attempting to get their (not very recognisable) faces back into the limelight. Good luck to them.

Well, while Melinda Messenger has been part of the television industry for over 20 years, it seems that she’s never really been able to shake off the model label. She only did modelling for a few months and she always carries that tag with her. Anyway, good luck to all the contestants!

Party Poker is a small site so they found ''célibrities'' who would not cost to much and they came with this joke.
I am very happy to be a part of such a great community, wish you the best of luck at the tables, off the tables, behind the tables, under the tables and in your life in general. Yours truly pinotte.

I am not sure about them being small, but a couple decent british c-list celebs would not cost that much either way - these people above are might as well just here because they payed for PP to participate in the promotion.

Funny how this story warrants a news article. I am pretty sure no one is going to follow this charade and we wont even hear the result. I would not matter anyways. Poker is a beautiful simple game that is very easy to understand yet extremely difficult to play profitably over a long period of time. Reason: poker players play against each other. For someone to win another player has to lose.

No, thank you but I really don't need chlamydia nor herpes. And I also don't think they would care about poker at all tbh.

Does anyone know how all of this is going? Has it started yet? I am so interested in knowing which one of these no bodies succeeds in learning to play poker and beating one of the others in a game. It is just so enthrallingly entertaining and enjoyable that I simply must know how it is all going! Are they doing it on some distant sunny shore remote Caribbean island just for effect? That would make it even more special!
