\'Celeb BB\' chiefs struggle to recruit stars

Quote:

Celebrity Big Brother producers have struggled to convince stars to appear on the new series, according to a report.

The show's team have apparently been battling to sign up celebrities following the racism controversy which engulfed the programme's 2007 run.

Many stars have reportedly decided to reject offers from Big Brother producers because they do not want their careers to suffer after living in the house.

Jade Goody and Jo O'Meara struggled to regain their popularity after being accused of racism and bullying on the programme nearly two years ago.

One celebrity agent told the Daily Star Sunday: "A few of my stars have been approached but, to be honest, they are quite reluctant. So much went wrong last time and celebrities don't want to sign up for something that could ruin their careers overnight."

Celebrity Big Brother returns to Channel 4 on January 2.

its guna be another year of people we dnt no

why dont they recruit the person who got those
celebs in the jungle this year. Great names
Navratilova Takei Kilroy Ranzten and some
not as famous but became great names. Just imagine them in the bb house

Probably a lie, all the celebrities have been recruited if we believe what Davina said on PoG show last week.

CBB isn't really CELEBRITY BB it's just the same real thing as normal BB except it's only a month long (the "celebs" in CBB are just as well known as the non-celeb HM's in normal BB lol). I do hope though that we can have a few good names this year. I suspect this is lies anyway because I presume the HM's have already been chosen.

more like there is only so many z listers left who need to use it to boost album/book/tv program figures

Don't they come out with a story like this every time?
