Blagojevich Eager to be Reality Star

Former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich won't actually get to participate in "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!" but that hasn't stopped him from promoting the reality show, PEOPLE.com reports.

Blagojevich, who was recently indicted on corruption charges, said "[This] is a chance to do something that's really fun and entertaining compared to some of the other things that I got to deal with that frankly suck, period. At this point I'm looking for a new line of work."

Twitterers found his ambitions laughable:

    greyracer04 Sorry, neither #Blagojevich or his wife, are celebrities, he's a corrupt politician & she's married to a corrupt politician. That's it.
