Cleric and former GB News presenter Calvin Robinson has embarked on another money-spinning scheme following his departure from the channel, which once branded itself “the home of free speech”. Robinson is now offering personalised video messages on the website Cameo. Prices start at £32 per video. Robinson was sacked from GBN along with actor Laurence Fox after defending the latter’s on-air rant about a female journalist, in which Fox asked “who’d want to shag that?”. The pair remain friends and Robinson recently gave him a blessing, pictured.
After leaving GBN, Robinson set up a crowd-funding page in an attempt to match the salary he was receiving from the channel. He also embarked on an expenses-paid preaching tour of the United States in which he visited Disneyworld. A number of minor celebrities and public figures use the site, which can offer big money for relatively little work. Messages are pre-scripted by customers, who seem to take pleasure in ventriloquising famous faces to deliver birthday messages, insults and the like.
