CELEBRITY Big Brother has been thrown into crisis as two stars have dropped out of the line up.

Now, panicked bosses are struggling to fill the final slots before the show’s launch next week.

The Sun Online can reveal that transgender journalist Paris Lees and TV presenter John Leslie have quit the show at the last minute.

“Paris’s deal broke down during last minute negotiations, so she won’t be going into the house anymore,” says a source.

“And John was offered a big, six-figure deal but turned it down and now he’s out of the running too.

“It’s left frantic bosses scrambling to fill the remaining slots.

“They want to land big names but they’re really up against it with time.

“There’s just over a week to go which isn’t long to work out contracts and fees.”

Nah. The only source I trust is C5 themselves or Rylan, Emma etc.

[Denver]

So your saying that everyone the sun rumoured is fake and won't enter

[Bluelight]

Is this why they contacted India Willoughby? Last min replacement?

[DarrenBBUK]

Honestly, John dropped out ages ago, from what I saw. Paris failed to even sign up to the show. The Sun is just exaggerating.

The Mail published an article reporting that she had failed the test, there was a thread made about it here but that segment of the article was removed a few hours later: http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forums/showthread.php?t=344206

John would have been good in there.

I changed my view of him after he was interviewed recently on This Morning.

He does seem a nice guy.

A stint on CBB would have done him good and resurrected his career.
