Lisa's no actor, says neighbour

BIG Brother housemates should keep on the right side of feisty Lisa Huo.

Childhood friend Dino Hill lived next door to Lisa for about 15 years when her parents owned a takeaway on Sunnybank Avenue, Hattersley.

And according to the 35 year old, she hasn't changed a bit.

"I've known her since she was a little kid and she is exactly how she is in the house. Some of them are putting on an act but Lisa hasn't got an agenda, she's just being herself," said Dino.

"She has no fear, she'll stand up to anyone and she won't change just because people want her to. She won't take any rubbish, so the other housemates better watch out - I wouldn't like to be them if they annoy her!"

Loud and proud of it, the straight-talking Tamesider has been criticised for her constant swearing and smoking.

But even if the housemates don't love our lass, Dino reckons the public will.

"I found it amusing when I heard Lisa going off on one and I thought back to how she was," he said.

"Where we lived, if you didn't swear you were considered posh! I don't think that will bother people.

"She's a lovely girl and really loyal to her family and friends. I think she's done it for a laugh rather than to get famous and I hope she stays in.

"I think people like people who are straightforward and upfront and not fancy. I'm glad she's in it and and I just hope the public accept her for what she is and respect her for it."

Lisa, 27, is a former pupil of Hattersley High School and now lives in Ashton.
