Dancing On Ice star Jason Gardiner signs up after being offered 'big money'

[Loukas]

CBB producers have reportedly persuaded the Australian star to appear on the Channel 5 show with a huge cheque - but they have high expectations

Jason Gardiner is set to appear on Celebrity Big Brother. The 43-year-old Australian choreographer - who's best known for his controversial appearances as a judge on ITV's 'Dancing on Ice' - has reportedly been offered a big-money deal to star on the reality TV show.

Producers are said to be convinced that the star will be a major hit with viewers. A source said: "Jason would be perfect for Celebrity Big Brother because he's so unpredictable and won't hold back. The execs are really keen to get him to sign up." However, Jason's appearance on the show is likely to create a headache for its bosses, who've already confirmed it will feature a UK v US theme.

A show insider told the Daily Star newspaper: "It's still being decided where he would fit in." Last month, the makers of Celebrity Big Brother revealed the house will be decorated with British and American iconography. What's more, it's been confirmed that the patriotic celebrities will have to put on their competitive hats as the UK and US housemates are pitted against each other in a series of tasks, challenges and twists.

Other celebrities rumoured to have been lined up for the show include soap actress Danniella Westbrook and ex-TOWIE star Dan Osborne.

[Pete.]

First boot?
He'll get the James Jordan treatment

[Lostie!]

First boot?

Depends whether it's VTE or VTS. VTS usually helps outspoken (aka, nasty) housemates.

[MB.]

Well UK vs USA didn't last very long did it

[Ashley.]

At least he's famous. If they put him in the UK pile though lmao

[arista]

First boot?

Not if there is a Worse one in there.

[EspeonBB]

Not the Craig Revel Horwood of DOI. Hope he's the first boot

[Withano]

Never seen it, is he the 'mean judge'?

[Withano]

Opening night twist will be some us v uk bull**** with him judging, calling it now.

[Withano]

He alone will choose which half is up for nomination

[Ross.]

CBB16: UK vs USA vs Jason Gardiner?

[reece(:]

Never seen it, is he the 'mean judge'?
The token Cowell wannabe judge of Ice skating

[Withano]

The token Cowell wannabe judge of Ice skating

Yeah, thought so, he looked familiar for that reason. Hope he's a prick outside of work too!

[Shaun]

So long as he acts natural and isn't forcefed to us as another James Jordan dickhead villain I'm good with this.

[reece(:]

Karen Barber should be a housemate too, to scalp him like on DOI

[Vanessa]

Karen Barber should be a housemate too, to scalp him like on DOI

[Suze]

I thought they had stopped with the Towies, won't be watching anything CBB, IACGMOOH and others that include any gawd awful Towies.

[reece(:]

Now that i would watch! :laugh:

Yessss :love:

[Jason.]

I don't watch DOI, is he nasty?

[Moosething]

Isn't he another James Jordan

[Lostie!]

I don't watch DOI, is he nasty?

Yeah, he's the token Mr Nasty of Dancing on Ice basically.

[Liam-]

He once called Sharron Davies a floater that wouldn't flush :laugh2:

[Natalie.]

I'd love it if he went in

[Jason.]

Yeah, he's the token Mr Nasty of Dancing on Ice basically.

Great. As if James Jordan being in CBB14, CBB15, and BB16 wasn't bad enough :rolleyes:

[Lostie!]

The live argument with Karen was entertaining, though. :laugh:

pK_bfV_wjU0

[LukeB]

Karen >>

[Liam-]

Great. As if James Jordan being in CBB14, CBB15, and BB16 wasn't bad enough :rolleyes:

Don't judge him before you've ever seen him :nono:

[Lostie!]

Don't judge him before you've ever seen him :nono:

He's right, though. :hee:

But Jason at least has more potential to be entertaining than James.

[Jason.]

Don't judge him before you've ever seen him :nono:

:umm2:

I didn't even say anything about him to judge him. I just asked if he was nasty or not, and apparently he is. I have no opinion on him so I'll wait till he goes in, if he even does go in.

[Liam-]

He's right, though. :hee:

But Jason at least has more potential to be entertaining than James.

He is a bit of a dick, but I'm pretty sure that's just his 'judge persona' becuase he's been on other things and he hasn't been nearly as 'nasty' as he was on DOI, he literally is Simon Cowell, but gayer, balder and poorer :laugh:

:umm2:

You sounded judgey... plus I'm a James fan :hehe:

[Jason.]

If he's like Simon Cowell, I might like him as a housemate.

James was just a dick for the sake of it, and he wasn't even funny with it. Just annoyingly nasty, who always used the "I'm being honest" card as a platform for his vitriol. Not to mention hypocritical.

[MB.]

Karen vs Jason to be the CBB-hosted disappointing sequel to Freddy vs. Jason?

[Xtopher]

Sounds like a delight.

[mrmattybeck1]

Isn't this UK vs USA

[Black Dagger]

Karen is a knobhead

[cheeky_monkey]

I hope Jason does go on CBB :)

[Ammi]

[Jay28jay2]

Cant stand him but hes probably going to be iconic so thats fine by me.

[Macie Lightfoot]

if they want someone related to ice skating can't they just get Tonya Harding or something

[MB.]

(the funny thing is I don't think he can even ice skate)

[Xtopher]

if they want someone related to ice skating can't they just get Tonya Harding or something

I keep thinking of her doing the show.

[reece(:]

Karen vs Jason to be the CBB-hosted disappointing sequel to Freddy vs. Jason?
Kelly Rowland to cameo again?

[aj2463]

I would have put money on him doing IAC instead, but hey, He'd be great, especially in the same house as Janice Dickinson and Kim Woodburn
