And insider said she had signed it and if she didnt appear she would have to pay money, or something.

[SammyAyee]

I really think it would be great if Paris came in for just a few days. I reckon it would stir so much up!

[LaLaLand]

Grace Jones has been heavily rumoured too... people seem to not pick up on her from tabloids a few weeks ago.

SHE would be fantastic!

[tommYHYH]

If would be great if the producers just threw all of those rumoured housemates in. Unlikely, but I can imagine

[Indierock&roll]

Why rule out Mutya but not Lembit? Lembit has vehemently denied any association with CBB, whilst Mutya denied it but then said what she was doing was secret and has been heavily rumored despite her denial.

Anyone got a rumour list from last time around as quite often in the past those rumoured for one series turn up in the next.

Here you go:

http://gallopinggossip.blogspot.com/...-has-been.html

It's a list I made for my blog for CBB5. Every name on that list had either been rumored by websites or papers or just done the rounds on the forums.

[dupin]

That's helpful ; knowing Tommy Sheridan was asked last time, perhaps some of the other rumoured celebrities will be on this time...note how a lot of them were right as well...I definately remember Donny Tourette being rumoured as well.

I didn't hear about Jo O'Meara, Ken Russell, Cleo Rocos, Leo Sayer or Carole Malone.

I'm sure Shannon Elizabeth was rumoured a while back. She was also rumoured for I'm A Celeb but obviously that turned out to be false. But she is a massive Big Brother fan, she wants to go on the US version but they don't do a Celebrity series, so she may go on BBUK. She was on BBLB a couple of years ago.

I hope this is true, she's so funny and a really good actress. I liked her on Dancing with the Stars too.

Fingers crossed!

Thanks Gazbo - let's throw some of them in the mix then:

David Hasselhoff (no)
Ruby Wax (possible, but unlikely - she's already done Fame Academy)
Kevin Federline (he's got the kids to look after)
Adam Ant - even if you've no idea who he is you know the name!
Boris Johnson (he's got London to run)
Whitney Houston (rumoured every year - won't happen!)
Sarah Harding, Girls Aloud (they're on the up at the moment)
Jeffrey Archer (would be a better political choice than Sheridan)
G4 singers Jonathan Ansell & Matthew Stiff (another repeat one there then)
Bruce Forsyth (could use it to prove he's not doddery!)
Tommy Sheridan (another repeat, but no me thinks!)
Paul Michael Glaser (regularly rumoured)
Derek Acorah A strong chance - according to the spirits!
Duncan James, ex-Blue singer (done Dancing on Ice)
Stephen Hawking, theoretical physicist. (as if)
Leilani Dowding, Page 3 model. (even less famous now, so possibly!)
Lauren Harris, British singer & daughter of Iron Maiden bassist Steve Harris. (who?)
Rebecca Loos, Famous for claiming she had an affair with footballer David Beckham. (I think that ship has passed)
John Leslie - a shame he's sunk so low through no fault of his own, so a possibility
Grace Jones, Jamaican singer, actress & model. (would be great)
RuPaul, American drag performer & singer. (who?)
Su Pollard About time she did one of them
Justin Hawkins He might begrudgingly accept
OJ Simpson, Former professional footballer & film actor. (i doubt parole is due!)
Dale Winton, British radio DJ & TV presenter. (unlikely)
Tara Reid, Actress & party girl. (regularly rumoured and said to be a fan)
Robert Kilroy Silk, British politician & TV host. (I'm a Celeb)
Jo Guest, British glamour model & Page Three girl (see Ms Dowling)
Carol Lee Scott, English actress . (who?)
Sharon Davies, British swimmer. (unlikely IMO)
Julie Goodyear Not sure if she would, but she seems more willing to make public appearances than she was a few years back. I think Bruce Jones - aka Les Battersby, is a good bet though.
Gavin Rossdale, Former lead singer to rock band Bush. (probably unlikely, but the sort of celeb I'd much rather they went for rather than a mainstream has been)
Marilyn (musician), aka Peter Robinson, Jamaican cross-dressing singer. (who?)
Marc Almond, English singer. (who?)
Colin Baker, Actor most known for his role in TV show Doctor Who (unlikely)
Lil' Kim, American rapper. (unlikely)
David Schwimmer, Actor most known for his role in sitcom Friends. (not quite that forgotten yet!)
Michaela Strachan, English television presenter. (always rumoured)
Lauren Harries, Trans-sexual antiques dealer. (are we that desperate yet!)
Johnny Vegas, English comedian. (seems to have his life sorted now)
Daz Sampson, Entered the Eurovision song contest this year for Britain. (so 2006!)
Abi Titmuss Tabloid slag, so perhaps so
Abigail Clancy (a WAG who actually would be a good HM, but as she does a show with George Lamb it's unlikely)
Michelle Marsh (model), English glamour model. (who?)
Josie D'Arby (did The Games and doesn't seem to be doing much now!)
Adele Silva, English model & actress. (back in Emmerdale)
Gary Coleman, American actor & politician. (who?)
James Whale (radio), British radio presenter. (got sacked this year so a good bet!)
Michael Carroll (lottery winner), famous for winning the lottery. (barrel scraping!)
Freddie Starr, English comedian & author. (hope not)
Jean-Jacques Burnel, Musician, bass guitarist to English band The Stranglers (who? - but see Gavin Rossdale!)
Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York & former wife to Prince Andrew (would be a coup, but more likely to become Queen)

Gavin Rossdale - his wife in like 8 months pregnant

Adam Ant - strongly denied it at the time.

[Redmond]

You don't know who Gary Coleman is? What you talking about Willis?!

He played Arnold Drummond in Different Strokes. Better known now for being an angry little man that punched a fan.
