[Denver]

https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/7003520/the-official-celebrity-big-brother-line-up-confirmed/

[Epic.]

Some of these dont seem famous at all

[Ryebailey23]

Crap lineup for

[Jodie.]

Will the “mystery male” be unknown? I remember they said the same thing for Maggie last series

But imagine if that rumour was true & it was Tommy Robinson ugh

[Daniel-X]

Excited for Gabs n Chlo. Can’t say I’m fussed on anyone else (Nat will bring the drama but she’s really unlikeable, would much rather have Meghan James)

[Glenn.]

Isn’t Stormy in America on tour though

[DanielM787]

Isn’t Stormy in America on tour though

That’s what I thought :shrug:

[Denver]

Stormy Daniels
Roxanne Pallet
Gabby Allen
Kirsty Alley
Natalie Nunn
Sally Morgan Chloe Ayling

Ken Doll
Ben Jardine
Jermaine Pennant
Dan Ousbourne
Ryan Thomas
Nick Leeson
Mystery Man

[Mitchell]

I’ll still be very surprised if they’ve got Stormy

[Glenn.]

Mess at them confirming nothing then

[RileyH]

Only here for Nat & Chloe

[Denver]

Stormy will be swapped for someone else

[Glenn.]

But stormy is in America...

[Denver]

They make the male sound like someone big

[DanielM787]

I wouldn’t really class her as a housemate considering that she was only supposed to join the house for a week.

[DanielM787]

They make the male sound like someone big

Dan Lobb anyone ? :hehe:

[BBUK-Fan]

IF this is it, I’m massively disappointed

[Oaker]

if Stormy is a guest then there will only be 5 females compared to 7 males :S

[Denver]

Also i still think there is at least 16 housemates?

Has it not been years since they had 14 on launch

[DanielM787]

if Stormy is a guest then there will only be 5 females compared to 7 males :S

Sinitta was robbed, I so wanted to see her appear in her leaf dress :hehe:

[glibberglobber]

So..

Gabby and Dan both reality stars...

Hey-ho let's put Megan in there when Wes cheats on her.

Nothing surprising here.

[Marsh.]

Dire

[DanielM787]

Dan Lobb and Sinitta for late entrants ?

[Denver]

Dan Lobb and Sinitta for late entrants ?

Sinitta will still be the least famous and most pointless housemate

[Cal.]

Roxanne :love:

[DanielM787]

Sinitta will still be the least famous and most pointless housemate

I would have preferred her over stormy tbh.. especially if she’s only in there for a week :conf:

[Marsh.]

Sinitta will still be the least famous and most pointless housemate

I think more people will recognise her from her appearances on the X Factor than the likes of Roxanne Pallet.

[Denver]

I think more people will recognise her from her appearances on the X Factor than the likes of Roxanne Pallet.

She is essentially known for stalking Simon Cowell

[Marsh.]

She is essentially known for stalking Simon Cowell

Yes, regardless, she's very famous.

[Firewire]

Sinitta will still be the least famous and most pointless housemate

How dare you, Toy Boy was an ANTHEM.

[DanielM787]

Yes, regardless, she's very famous.

Completely agree with this, plus Sinitta has been on TV way more than Roxanne has

[Denver]

Also Sinitta will be out very early

[DanielM787]

Also Sinitta will be out very early

No she wouldn’t, more likely Rodrigo would be he was dull as hell on Italian Big Brother :fist:

[Denver]

No she wouldn’t, more likely Rodrigo would be he was dull as hell on Italian Big Brother :fist:

Was she not voted out 2nd on IAC?

[Greg!]

An okay line up. A few big names but also a lot of "who the hell is that" type people. Hope Sinitta will be a surprise!

I think the 'mystery man' will maybe be a male version of Chantelle.

[glibberglobber]

wow, i never have and still don't know who 'Sinitta' is... other than she has 'relations' with Cowell

i thought you were all on about this woman

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/7e/Sunita_Alahan.jpg/200px-Sunita_Alahan.jpg

[Ryebailey23]

Worst lineup history of cbb!

[glibberglobber]

No she wouldn’t, more likely Rodrigo would be he was dull as hell on Italian Big Brother :fist:

i can imagine Rodrigo being nocturnal

[Denver]

Worst lineup history of cbb!

you have clearly never seen CBB8

[Withano]

I only know two lol... i guess i accept that some of them are famous despite me not knowing them, but meh tbh

[Mitchell]

Worst lineup history of cbb!

CBB12, CBB8, CBB18 & CBB19 say hi

[glibberglobber]

https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2018/01/03/02/47B5F6DE00000578-5230393-Human_Ken_Doll_Rodrigo_Alves_has_revealed_that_one _of_the_bigges-a-13_1514947113347.jpg

we love his launch night outfit :clap2:

[Denver]

I think the Mystery man maybe a big name American? Especially with them trying to sign Jonathon and Lamar

[supertv247]

There’s not been this few housemates since CBB16 so I think it’s very likely there’ll be latecomers

[Denver]

Has there ever been a series on CH5 without an American male celeb?

[DanielM787]

People are saying it’s supposed to be that Tommy Robinson guy.. whoever he is

[Withano]

People kept complaining about back door evictions, maybe fewer cast members was intentional so they could avoid this.

[Denver]

People are saying it’s supposed to be that Tommy Robinson guy.. whoever he is

If the court wouldnt let Boy George they wouldnt let pond scum

mystery man Mr Michael o'Leary

[reece(:]

The human ken doll looks genuinely scary

[DanielM787]

I still think Rodrigo and Chloe could have been kept for the civilian series.

Apparently they are looking for wannabes again not cillivians like they are promising for the civilian

[Wizard.]

I’ll still be very surprised if they’ve got Stormy

I read this as Stormzy

[Ryebailey23]

This lineup won’t win back the ratings producers failed yet agajn!!

[Greg!]

The human ken doll looks genuinely scary

Ikr I would hate to live with him :worry: Sounds nasty but it's true

[Denver]

So Chloe faked her kidnap for a place on CBB?

[Daniel-X]

Chloe and Gabs F2

[Denver]

The Mystery man best be Ryan Lochte as we need eye candy

[Denver]

Chloe and Gabs F2

Someone who put innocent men in prison and a filthy slag hmm

[Daniel-X]

Someone who put innocent men in prison and a filthy slag hmm

She did NOT fake her kidnap and Gabby is a legend.

[Denver]

How can Chloe's claims be taken seriously when she doing RTV like nothing happened

[DanielM787]

The mystery Male will probably be Bobby Or Tommy

[Denver]

The mystery Male will probably be Bobby Or Tommy

Bobby already denied it and they wont go for 2 people from Towie .

[DanielM787]

Bobby already denied it and they wont go for 2 people from Towie .

Well it’s probably Tommy Robinson :conf:

[Denver]

Well it’s probably Tommy Robinson :conf:

The Court wont let him if he is on bail

[Black Dagger]

Worst lineup history of cbb!

You will still watch.

[Denver]

You will still watch.

Drag ha

[reece(:]

Ikr I would hate to live with him :worry: Sounds nasty but it's true
Waking up and seeing that on a morning would be scarier than even Brackie

[DanielM787]

I cant believe it took CBB 22 Series's to get Natalie Nunn while on the verge of being axed, Natalie, Kristie and Stormy deserved to be in a better series

[Scream]

It's an OK line-up.
I don't think they needed Ben and Nick... Chloe drags the line-up down to some degree but at least most will have heard of her.

If you take them out of the equation it doesn't look so bad. Does anyone think we will get Noel Edmonds?

[Strictly Jake]

Where are sinitta charlotte and bobby?

Going into a secret house I hope

[Ryebailey23]

Oh dear dan cheated on Jacqueline with gabby ,..

[Amy Jade]

Kirstie and Nat would make me SO happy! I literally couldn't care less who else is in if those two show up!

[MICHAEL G]

I think they will be 16 housemates and they’ve confirmed 13 so I think they will be another 3

[thisisdanny]

I'd still be very surprised if Stormy did it. Ben and Nick aren't needed at all, I don't often say it but they really are scraping the barrel with those two.

Why so secretive over the "mystery man"

Also I was hoping for 16 housemates, 14 is a bit low for recent years.

[Strictly Jake]

Didnt dan stop jaqueline from doing the show? Why is he getting to do it

[Strictly Jake]

If i could change it up a bit with other rumoured names it would be

Stormy Daniels(can stay as it might get promo for them)
Roxanne Pallet(can stay I like her)
Gabby Allen(replace with Montana Brown)
Kirsty Alley(big name so can stay)
Natalie Nunn(can stay)
Sally Morgan(replace with Sinitta)
Chloe Ayling(replace with Charlotte Dawson)

Ken Doll(can stay)
Ben Jardine(replace with Noel Edmonds)
Jermaine Pennant(can stay)
Dan Osbourne(replace with Bobby norris)
Ryan Thomas(can stay)
Nick Leeson(replace with Paul cattermole)
Mystery Man(needs to be a mystery female as jane mcdonald!)

I am sure if the option was there... :joker:

[pontyboi]

This line up is what made Emma's jaw hit the floor?

Seriously underwhelmed.

Why is Gabby and Dan even there seriously why are they still recycling reality stars who NEVER turn out to be entertaining on 2nd viewing...Johnny Mitchell anyone?

Wondering who WOULD impress you

[LaLaLand]

There's a lot of potential, the lesser known names are much bigger characters than the more "famous" by far (apart from Kirstie).

Not here for Nick though, like at all. Or Ben, he's a dick.

[Jase.]

Tbf to Emma, Stormy and Kirstie are huge names.

[pontyboi]

Jonny Mitchell was great, an icon in fact :nono:

He did absolutely nothing in CBB he was a bore that's what I mean you can take someone from say TOWIE or Love Island which are partly scripted and edited to make people look entertaining but when they enter an actual reality show like BB they show how boring they actually are.

Megan McKenna being the massive exception.

[pontyboi]

Wondering who WOULD impress you

I don't expect Beyoncé or Britney but C'mon ive appeared in more **** than some of these people lol.

The line up is the most disappointing in years to me anyway.

Its embarrassing to see the line up revealed and hardly anyone knows who they are BUT as the past has proven some of the lesser known people do tend to be great housemates so lets hope that's the case this year because producers really did need big names to bring back viewers but seems like they are taking a gamble on the dynamic these lot will bring.

Still perched for it as always.

[pontyboi]

Megan McKenna being the massive exception.

Have to agree with this she was an amazing housemate.

[Mitchell]

Erm the GC?

I don't think anyone's stopping either of them. They're not together.

She had one episode where she kicked off like a dickhead for attention, but apart from that DULL.

That is honestly a dire line up on paper. They need to deliver if they want to keep viewers!

That's exactly how I feel about it.

Hopefully the casting team have done their work in putting together a group of people they know will bring the drama.

All the fat **** did was break Tiffany's expensive shoes

When I want someone’s opinion who stans a drug dealing chav, I’ll come and ask you.

[Ant.]

Amazing. I only know Rodrigo and Ryan

[*mazedsalv**]

Stormy strongly denied it, count her out.

That leaves two not accounted for.

[*mazedsalv**]

I think Ben and Nick are sily mistakes.

Replace them with Noel and Dan Lobb and it will make the list look far better... plus as I said, Stormy denied it and i feel it will be Charlotte Dawson or Sinitta taken her place.

[*mazedsalv**]

I got it!!!

The Mystery Man will be Noel Edmonds.

DOND... mystery box!

Knowing C5 though, "Mystery" could be the bloke from Crystal Maze... f knows haha

[annabelindabee]

I want to be the Mystery 'Man'
and I can bee... BB Just call mee!.. A Bee :-(


If not Noel Edmonds will do

ok but is baggy fanny wrong ??

Im dreading her entrance how sick is it that the crowd will all boo her for being a "fraud" when its actually been proven her kidnap was true.

Gotta love the cynical GBP.

[Rob!]

There’s no point in pretending it isn’t a piss poor line up. It’s very young skewing (despite the fact that the young aren’t even CBB’s main demographic anymore) and it’s quite reality tv heavy. We don’t need a love islander and a Towie and a married at first sight (whatever that is)

I feel that in terms of TOWIE members, Dan Osborne is arguably one of the most famous and he fits the theme so I am okay with him.

Married At First Sight guy is completely criminal. Don't really understand it. I have never even heard of the show? :shrug:

Gabby seems a ridiculous choice. I don't watch a whole lot of Love Island and even I know she's not going to benefit ratings at all. There is so many other females on Love Island that would have brought more interest and probably more to the series... (we'll see)

[thisisdanny]

Not sure I trust line-up leaks days before the launch actually, maybe launch day but past shows anything can change

[Cal.]

The tea is Roxanne is the only one that matters?

[*mazedsalv**]

The more i look at the lineup, the more disappointing it looks both in terms of faces and IMO potential. I kind of hope half the list is wrong.

The list is also getting a lot of negativity, i think out there, it's like 95% negative. I never think they should leak names, only 1 or 2 and then leave the rest under wraps.

I know we say names don't matter, it's true, but names is the first thing that attracts people to launch, and in terms looking at the list, it's one of the worst.

The format and the quality need to be fantastic for any sort of success.

I did watch MAFS but ridiculous, probably the most "what?" choice ever.

I can choose like 10 people from last years LI better than Gabby too.

I will agree with you about Dan, he is quite known in the reality circle.

[Dash Darington]

The Mystery Male will be Kiosk Keith. He fits the theme, and is probably within their budget.

TBH, Celebrity Farm and Celebrity Coach Trip are able to attract better casts, and I'm looking forward to those shows more than CBB. This show is beyond repair.

Most of those two shows are mostly ex cbb housemates

Praying Kirstie drops out at the last minute... I'm disgusted at the producers for putting potential ratings above everything that her supposed "church" stands for and the abuses and crimes they commit...

Yes how dare a tv company try to save a show by signing a controversial character to increase ratings.

Get your head out of your arse.

With that logic they should have only atheist housemates in future.

Scientology isn't your run of the mill "religion"... The money she earns by appearing on this show is funneled right back to Scientology and helps fund the abuse... There aren't many mainstream religions that force their parishioners to fork over millions of dollars for their entire family to remain in good standing...

Controversy is one thing... Indirectly funding a dangerous and abusive organization for the sake of a handful of viewers is another...

[kingston]

Kirstie Alley won’t quit, won’t happen in the slightest :hehe:

I can think of several reasons why she'd quit...

[BigBrudder]

Great potential lineup. Some big characters and people with interesting stories/lives. People forget however, that there is an art to this casting, it is not about getting all big names and huge personalities, its about the mix.

For example there is always the requisite model/glamour model thrown in, at least this year they went for one that also has an interesting story. Secondary signings such as Sally Morgan or Human Ken Doll have the potential to be quirky breakout favorites. Natalie Nunn is an inspired "american bad girl reality star" choice ala Farah Abraham or Tiffany Pollard, two recent CBB legends. This board has been stanning for her for ages.

While there always turn out to be a few duds that looked better on paper or dont deliver, theres a lot of people on the list that could surprise us and become new favorites. When they all interact together thats the magic of it that BB is usually so good at that when it works it is better than any other show on tv.

Are you that naïve? Yes Scientology is pure evil but so is every other religion they all prey on the weak and take money from their collective flocks!

I hate leaked lineups because when people see how piss poor it is they don't tune in. Keep it all secret, so people watch and then even in the event of a weak lineup they still might continue watching if they're entertained by the cast from that night.

I don’t think The Sun should be allowed to leak it. Can’t they have stopped them by embargo it or something?

[Morgan.]

I don’t think The Sun should be allowed to leak it. Can’t they have stopped them by embargo it or something?

No, I think they get their 'confirmed' names from the agents, Celeb themselves, and spotting them on flights/near elstree so unless Channel 5 tell news outlets they've signed up then they can't embargo.

I'd imagine this mystery man has been embargoed
