Intro
It all started with an idea. Just a small hint, nothing huge or complicated. Something that could change the world, make us see the people surrounding us differently. Something that'll make people see that even the most untouchable, seemingly perfect members of our society are human. What if we took the celebrities and set them up with random, normal people? And what if we televised it?
The general plan was to take a handful of celebrities -actors, singers, comedians, anyone well-known enough to have at least a prominent fanbase- and a handful of members of the public and dump them all into a remote, secluded area far from the reach of society. The goal? Well, entertainment of course! There will be highs and lows, fights and make-outs, enemies forming and romance blossoming; all to the joy of the watching public.
So, a mansion was built somewhere near Hawaii suited to house up to twenty guests, the idea was for ten celebrities and ten small-town young adults to be picked at random once applying. For the celebrities, it might just be a publicity stunt, or chance to relax without the constant pressure of being famous. For the small-towns, maybe it's their claim to fame, or maybe they're just looking for love?

Participants will be taken to a luxury mansion located in a secluded area near Hawaii, and joined by nineteen other participants. The programme length depends on viewer interest. The more viewers, the more time the participants will spend in the mansion with the others. Participants consist of ten chosen celebrities, and ten chosen members of the public.

So, that's the basics of my idea. A roleplay based around a show similar to big brother, yet with its differences. I'm just posting this to see if it interests people, so this definitely isn't the full thing. Any questions, feel free to ask. And if you think you'd join if I made it, please just let me know!
