Maybe going in for 5mins or something as part of a task

Yeah, they seem to have taken the entire front page! I don't know why they would lie at this point, I mean there will be a lot of pissed off faces when Fergie and Sheen don't go in, if it's just to drum up interest. But I wonder, what's in it for Sheen?

You asked why The Daily Star would devote an entire page to a headline that might not be true. I responded by saying ... well ... it's The Daily Star.

Let me know if I'm losing you here.

"HELLRAISER Charlie Sheen is lined up to enter the Big Brother house as part of a £6million deal.

Channel 5 bosses have stumped up a wallet-busting budget to lure Sheen and some of the biggest names in showbiz for their new-look reality series.

And the wild actor is their most “box office” housemate to date.

Sheen, 45, is due to jet to Britain in the next two weeks after agreeing a lucrative deal to appear on the show.

Bosses are convinced Sheen’s Celebrity Big Brother involvement will make it “unmissable TV”.

He has stolen the headlines since he was sacked from his role in hit US sitcom Two And A Half Men in March.

Sheen was fired from the £1.2m-an-episode role over his cocaine binges and sex romps with porn stars.

Since then he has been snapped drinking what he called “tiger blood”, waving around a machete and partying with a string of sexy models.

Among the babes were then live-in girlfriends Natalie Kenly and porn star Bree Olson, both 24, who he convinced to snog each other on stage during his recent one-man show, Violent Torpedo Of Truth.

A telly insider said Sheen would make CBB the hottest show on the box. “It would be unbelievable,” said the source. “A producer’s dream.

“No-one would want to miss the chance of seeing what he’s up to and hear the wacky things he’s saying. And let’s face it, he’s been saying some crazy stuff recently.”

Other names linked to the show, which starts later this month, include Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson, 51, TOWIE star Amy Childs, 21, and boxing legends Mike Tyson, 45, and Ricky Hatton, 32.

A Channel 5 spokesman said: “Big Brother execs are in talks with a number of celebrities about appearing on the series but we’re not confirming any names at the moment.”

Oh, yeah. Stupid, stupid me!


Anyway, Charlie Sheen.

[Vicky.]

They paid 6m for him?

[g17m]

if this is true then i think CBB is going to get some impressive ratings

[ram513]

here's hoping he goes nuts

[*mazedsalv**]

Holy ****, £6m, Five if this is true, you are crazy!!

According to the link, other celebs:

Sarah Ferguson, Mike Tyson, Ricky Hatton and Amy Childs

[Locke.]

Still standing by it not being true.

But he would be shagging Amy Childs within the first 24 hours if it is

[CharlieO]

The Daily Star continues to post bull****e about BB because it causes press attention which in turn creates more viewers for the show. So what if Desmond owns them both. The way messages travel through the business hierarchy of The Star, BB and everything else Desmond owns means it would be almost impossible for Dicky himself to monitor the crap they print.

[billy123]

This would be a massive boost for big brothers profile i really hope this happens.

[Tony1111]

Hope it's true the ratings would go through the roof with media coverage and interest from not only here but America too.

[*mazedsalv**]

He would be the biggest celebrity ever in the house, by quite a long shot

[keithafc]

Why would he go into Big Brother?

[Tony1111]

For the money.

[Colbert-Bump]

Hatton won't be going in the house but getting Sheen means C5 mean business for Big Brother, that's a good sign.

[King Gizzard]

Not a chance

[Novo]

If they have offered that kind of money then why not? they all go in there for the money and when someone is offering £6,000,000 to live in a house for 3 weeks then he'd at least consider it

[Marc]

Surely he isn't sane enough?

[Novo]

And that free 9 pack of kit kats is a great offer i may buy it today just for that

[Tony1111]

You will probably find Sue Katona got the same offer... The kit Kats I mean not the £6 million!
