Seems pretty legit. A nobody. Drug addled, tax dodging pimpstress. This year's token crazy American, no doubt.

It's on its last season and has yet to announce a full line up, but one cast member has a lawful go ahead to appear on Britain's "Celebrity Big Brother."
Heidi Fleiss was given permission Tuesday by a Nevada judge to participate in the 7th season of "CBB" in London in January, the Las Vegas Review-Journal is reporting. No one opposed her request to leave the country.
Fresh off her inpatient drug treatment program stint on VH1's "Celebrity Rehab 2" with Dr. Drew Pinsky, in September Fleiss was sentenced to three years probation on felony drug charges stemming from her February '08 arrest in Pahrump, a rural town 45 minutes outside of Las Vegas.
She needs to stay out of trouble, and away from drugs, through 2012.
The former HOllywood Madam, 43, plans to leave her home in Pahrump and her many birds in January to be on the show, which is in its last season. It was announced in August that Britain's Channel 4 would pull the plug on the series due to low viewer ratings.
Fleiss told the Review-Journal that she was to be paid $10,000 per episode, money she needs as her most recent endeavor, a dog grooming shop in Las Vegas, is apparently all washed up. She continues to draw a paycheck from a laundromat she owns in Pahrump called Dirty Laundry.
