According to the Daily Star, producers of Big Brother are trying to persuade Busted to play during the final show of the series because surviving contestant Stuart is such a big fan of the band. In fact, according to the evicted Marco Sabba: "Stuart walks around the house thinking he's the fourth member of Busted".
A source on the show reportedly told the tabloid: "Stuart looks set to be in the house at the end, so the producers think it would be awesome to get Busted down to play on the night. We've had celeb guests before at the finale. Liberty X performed a couple of years ago because the housemates kept singing their songs all the time."
Whether Busted will be interested remains to be seen. Given that new single '3AM/Thunderbirds' was out yesterday and will be charted and gone come the end of next week I wouldn't put too much money on them appearing, unless Channel 4 are willing to put lots of money on them appearing of course.
The Busted boys surely have bigger eggs to fry just now. Word is they have just struck a £500,000 deal with Pepsi which should help them crack America. With the Thunderbirds track likely to get them media attention in the States, plus that rumoured MTV reality show, word is Pepsi will be giving away Busted CDs to American customers as part of a major sponsorship deal.
