STAND by for fireworks — Boy George is going on Celebrity Big Brother with Anna Nicole Smith.
Show insiders are predicting tension between the pair — one a camp Eighties icon, the other a feisty former lap dancer and centrefold.
To stir things up Channel 4 bosses have also lined up acid-tongued comic Johnny Vegas, alongside veteran funnyman Jimmy Tarbuck.
George, 44, is appearing despite being charged last month with cocaine possession. He was nicked by cops in New York.
A Manhattan court released him to reappear on December 19. But manager Tony Gordon insisted: “George is a good boy.”
Busty Anna Nicole, 38, is still battling the family of her late oil billionaire hubby J. Howard Marshall II, who died aged 89.
They are fighting her bid to inherit £46million from his will. Anna’s weight ballooned during the long-running legal action — but she has since shed five stone.
Celebrity BB begins in January and will also feature Most Haunted’s Derek Acorah, Jocelyn Jee Esien from BBC3 comedy Three Non Blondes, and diet doctor Gillian
McKeith — host of Channel 4’s You Are What You Eat. There will also be another mystery guest.
An insider said: “It could even be Jimmy’s daughter Liza.”
