Alex Reid has reportedly been approached about appearing on the final series of Channel 4’s Celebrity Big Brother.

The News Of The World reports that Reid has been offered £100,000 to star on the show and a pal told the newspaper:

“They’re desperate to sign him up. It’s perfect for him because people will get to see the real person.

“Alex has got a bad reputation but he’s actually charming and funny. We’re convinced that if he does it he’d make it to the final.”

However it is doubtful that Katie Price would allow him to appear on the reality TV show.

One insider explained: “She’s already wary about Alex doing the celebrity circuit. She thinks people use him because he’s with her.”

Popstar Boy George has reportedly signed up for the 2010 series of Celebrity Big Brother

The singer, who was recently released from prison is rumoured to have accepted a £200,000 fee for the final series of the reality TV show.

An insider told the paper: “Boy George will be explosive – get ready for Celebrity Big Brother to finish with a bang.”

Aggie MacKenzie has said that the cancellation of How Clean Is Your House was ‘long overdue.’

Aggie, who appears in the show with I’m A Celebrity’s Kim Woodburn, said that she and Kim are surprised that the show went on for so long.

Aggie told MSN: “I’d say it was long overdue myself.”

She went on: “It’s so funny because when we did the first series we said, ‘oh my goodness they want another series of this!’ And then there was the third, and the fourth, and the fifth and the sixth, and the few in America and we thought, ‘it can’t go on for much longer’.

“Essentially it’s dirty house, clean house. You can mix and match what you put in between but after a while it’s ’same old’ isn’t it really? I’ll miss it but you’ve got to move on and do other stuff.”

Channel 4 has axed Wife Swap and How Clean Is Your House? in a bid to shake up the channel.

Head of Channel 4 Julian Bellamy told The Guardian: “The decommission of Big Brother earlier this year has been the catalyst for a process of creative renewal right across Channel 4.

“When Wife Swap launched, it was a truly groundbreaking programme which heralded an era of new factual formats right across television.

“It was challenging, impactful and connected with a large mainstream audience. I am now looking to find new ways to challenge the mainstream through entertaining and provocative programmes.”

Bellamy added that the axing was a “creative decision on our part to make space for new ideas”.

I suppose that explains why ‘How Clean Is Your House’ star Kim Woodburn is appearing on I’m A Celebrity this month. She’s got to make her money somehow!

Gordon Ramsay has admitted that he won’t be making any more episodes of his ‘Kitchen Nightmares’ show for Channel 4. The show sees Ramsay entering a struggling eatery and through his own tough love methods, trying to turn the restaurant around.

However, Gordon has admitted that the show is more trouble than it is worth and he told The Sun:

“If the restaurants succeed, there’s no praise. If they’re screwed, we’re blamed and get lawyers’ letters,” he said.

Instead Gordon will be concentrating on shows like The F Word and his new India series Gordon’s Great Escape, for the duration of his Channel 4 contract.

Former Hollyoaks star Paul Danan has been tipped to appear in the final series of Celebrity Big Brother. Danan has previously appeared in numerous reality TV shows, including two series of ITV’s ‘Love Island.’

“He’ll be TV gold,” a Channel 4 source told the Daily Star.

Speaking about his plans for 2009, the 31-year-old said: “I have a number of offers on the table for next year… You’ll be seeing a lot of me.”

Former football star, Paul Gascoigne has reportedly been offered £100,000 to appear on Channel 4’s final Celebrity Big Brother.

Paul was rumoured to have signed up for ITV’s I’m A Celebrity, but was dropped after bosses feared he wasn’t well enough to take part.

Paul is said to be keen to appear on the nation’s flagship reality TV show, however his friends are worried that 24 hour scrutiny could destroy the recovering alcoholic.

A bb insider told The Mirror: “Getting Gazza would be seen as a major coup as he is a national treasure.

“But he would need a lot of psychological support.”

Reports have emerged that the original wild child, Lindsay Lohan, is considering making an appearance on next year’s Celebrity Big Brother.

LiLo is presenting a number of shows in Singapore this week and The Sun reports that show bosses have flew out for some preliminary meetings.

The 2010 series of the show will be the final celebrity version and it looks like Endemol are going all out to make sure its a cracker.

Ulrika Jonsson has admitted that she had panic attacks before and during her time on Channel 4’s Celebrity Big Brother.

Jonsson told Metro: “It took a long time to make the decision to do it. I was having panic attacks thinking about doing it and I was panic-stricken when I was in there.

“I was thinking, ‘I’m panicking, I’m having an attack, go and clean the kitchen to make it stop’. I had planned to be out in the first few days, so winning was daunting and completely unexpected.”

Of being nominated for eviction, she added: “I was quite grateful as I wanted to go home. And I do not care what they think about me. I don’t have anything to do with them anymore.

“It’s part of the game, people saying horrible things about you and you doing exactly the same.”

In an upcoming episode of Celebrity Come Dine With Me, Eastenders star Laila Morse is caught licking cream off Bobby Davro’s chect. The mental image is very, very disturbing!

Laila, who plays Mo Harris on the BBC soap, knew Bobby from his time playing Vinnie Monk on the show.

Bobby, told The Sun: “I knew she was up for it.

“It just took the right kind of cream to get her in the mood.”

Laila added: “It wasn’t very nice but I did it.”

Dani Behr and Dane Bowers, watched the shenanigans but Dane was a little repulsed by the whole thing.

He said: “I’ve dated some freaky chicks but Laila tops them all.”
