CELEBRITY Big Brother bosses are set to sign up R&B star Ginuwine for the upcoming series of the reality show.
The US singer, 47, has been lined up by execs in the hope he will have a romance in the house after previously confessing to being a womaniser and fathering nine children by five different women.
Viewers will recognise Ginuwine, who’s worked with the likes of Timbaland and Missy Elliott, for his massive nineties hit Pony that later became the soundtrack for Channing Tatum film Magic Mike.
A TV source said: "Ginuwine is single and known for being a seriously smooth operator.
"Producers are hoping that one of the female contestants will fall for his irresistible charms and spark a romance in the house.
"Pony has become a recognisable hit again after Channing Tatum stripped off to the track in Magic Mike – and hopefully Ginuwine will show off his dance moves during the series too.
"He is a fun and lively character and is likely to be a real favourite among viewers."
Love Island hunk Jonny Mitchell was the first male star confirmed for next year’s series.
Bosses were keen to sign up the reality favourite following his split from Made in Chelsea’s Stephanie Pratt in the hope he will resume his lothario ways.
A source said: “Viewers really enjoyed watching him on Love Island this summer – and clearly there’s still more to see from Jonny."
The show will play tribute to women with an all-female cast when it launches in January.
Over the course of the series the male counterparts will enter the house and take part in tasks which will test their assumptions of gender stereotypes.
