Celebrity Big Brother star was flogging personalised videos and surviving on panto appearances after his show axe
DAVID Potts was flogging personalised videos to make cash before signing up for Celebrity Big Brother.
The reality star was surviving on panto appearances after Ibiza Weekender was axed in 2020.
He first joined the show as a receptionist on the ITV2 show in 2016 before working his way up to head rep.
David also appeared on Kavos Weekender, which followed contestants in their twenties at the hotel resort.
When his reality TV fame came to an abrupt end, David started charging fans £95 for sending Cameos - before slashing his price down to £47.
David also went on to work on a pantomime in Bolton playing “Fairy David” in a production of Sleeping Beauty.

The 30-year-old is now headed into the famous House alongside the likes of Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne.
And David will be in the best possible shape for his time in the house having lost an impressive three stone.
David shared his weight loss secrets recently, telling fans: "For everyone wanting to know how I’ve done it. I’m no dietitian or PT, but I try and go to the gym 6 days a week and eat 1700 calories!
"Then one day I do zero exercise and eat whatever the F I want! It seems to be working for me."
Last year the former holiday rep starred in The Big Celebrity Detox alongside Kerry Katona and Love Island's Toby Aromolaran.
His other telly credits include Celebs Go Dating, Celebs on the Farm, Celebrity Karaoke Club and Celebrity Ghost Trip.
