While a part of me vividly wanted to ignorate this event, my darker self just needed to post and comment on it.
Among the contestants in the recently started Big Brother edition in Spain, surely one of the most difficult characters to understand for the masses has definetely been Mimi-chan .
And that's it folks, courtesy of youtube, her presentation video. Here you can see her cosplaying as Athena from King of Fighters, Digiko from Digi-Charat, Umi from Magic Knight Rayearth and other characters, and also dubiously performing the Gals! series Opening Aitsu while cosplaying Suu from Clover (¿?).
You know, it's hard to introduce at once and make the people digest the concepts of cosplay, j-pop, or dollfies. She introduces herself as a gal, but I can't help but thinking her looks are closer to a... what in spanish would be catalogued as "killa".
Obviously, from the show's point of view, she is just in for comic relief (her intro is ridicule, and also being the most average looking woman in this edition and last but not least, she proudly commenting on her 24-year-old kept virginity), but it is funny seeing her adressing the rest of the contestants adding the particle -chan at the end of their names and imitating generic female villain laugh.
So far the audience has just mistaken her for a generic freak and the general reaction is pitying her for still liking dolls being 24 years old and disguising herself in weird customes. Also, the spotlight has been stolen by the hotter and hornier women, so she is rather secondary (at the moment).
On a side note, 200 private photos from her have already been leaked and are available on Emule (Oh! Fame!  ).
Ganbatte Mimi-chan!!!~
Further cover if I don't get excessively flamed.
But I still want to quench your thirst.
Because I am the one that put you into the desert.

Television networks in Spain are INDEED crazy.
About her "detox" time... uhm... I'm not really sure about it. Her experience somewhat seems to be watered down by the other contestants, who give her the cold shoulder everytime she seems to do some otaku joke (she started imitating Pikachu for whatever reasons, but nobody laughed nor even smiled, and whenever she starts singing in japanese, the others look at themselves with a "WTF?" expression).
And, of course, there should be the compulsory typical simple guy who asks her "Why do you wear those clothes?" filled with ill intentions, and another dupe that, aware of her virgin status, shouts "Take manga!!!" while doing pelvic thrust.
So I think that, as soon as she gets kicked from the contest, she'll return being the one she is as nothing happened, except for the fact that she will have an extra-though time finding a new job. Also, her romance possibilites are 0 there, so that experience won't do much in a long-term perspective and the possibilites of an "inflexion point" in her life due to her appearance in this contest are really scarce.
And about the dollfies aspect... YES, she does happen to write extense fanfics about her dolls personality, interactions and adventures and has photolog and livejournal accounts in which she throws in photos of her dolls cosplaying anime characters in an episodic story fashion.
But I still want to quench your thirst.
