Chantelle Vivien Preston (born August 21, 1983, Brentwood, Essex, England), was billed as the first 'non-celebrity' to feature in the Channel 4 reality TV show Celebrity Big Brother in 2006.

She emerged as the winner of series 4, beating 10 bona fide 'celebrities' (Michael Barrymore, Maggot, Preston, Pete Burns, Traci Bingham, Dennis Rodman, George Galloway, Rula Lenska, Faria Alam and Jodie Marsh), and winning a prize of £25,000.

In her Big Brother profile page Chantelle described herself as a "bright, blonde bimbo". Chantelle is not a natural blonde however. She said, "I look like Paris Hilton, not on purpose but it's just the way it turned out". She has been nicknamed "Paris Travelodge" (implying a poor version of Paris Hilton).

Following her rise to "celebrity" status, a look-alike agency she worked for as a Paris Hilton look-alike now offers another model as a "Chantelle Houghton look-alike" and a post-Big Brother show was shown called Chantelle: Living the Dream. Chantelle's first magazine cover was weekly celebrity magazine, Sneak magazine.

So this is what people do with the celebrity, they paint themselves orange and get bigger tits, who's her manager, Jordan?

As they say, it costs a lot of money to look so cheap.
