Looking forward to it!

Cast has been leaked to the press, and they're covering it like it's legit, but take it with a grain of salt:

Celebrity Big Brother 2024: The rumoured line-up is here - CosmoUK

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu
Ekin who? That's right, Love Island winner and reality TV star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu is said to be entering the Big Brother house and if this is true, we can't wait! The Turkish star recently split from her Islander ex, Davide Sanclimenti, and has previously starred in The Traitors US, Dancing on Ice and other shows. We think she'd make some great telly on Celebrity Big Brother.

Nikita Kuzmin
Strictly Come Dancing star Nikita Kuzmin is said to be swapping the ballroom for the Big Brother house in the new series. The 26-year-old Ukrainian-Italian dancer has partnered with Layton Williams in the most recent series of the dancing competition, and we think he'll be a fan favourite in the house!

Louis Walsh
The former The X Factor judge is said to be swapping the glitz and glam of the music business for the Big Brother house in the new season. The Irish personality may even meet his former co-judge, Sharon Osbourne, in the house but more on that later!

David Potts
You might recognise David from shows like Ibiza Weekender, Celebs Go Dating and more.

Bradley Riches
Bradley is best known for playing James McEwan in Netflix's Heartstopper, starring alongside the likes of Yasmin Finney and Joe Locke. The 24-year-old, who is openly gay and autistic, hopes to help with representation on the show. A source told The Sun: "Brad really wants to fly the flag for autistic, queer people on a huge mainstream show like Celebrity Big Brother."

Zeze Mills
Zeze is best known for being an online personality and cultural commentator, who has interviewed the likes of Mahalia, Akon, N-Dubz and more on her podcast. We think she'd be TV gold!

Marisha Wallace
Marisha is an American TV personality and actress, who has starred on Broadway in shows like Aladdin, Dreamgirls and more. She's also a talented musician and we think she'd be a big personally if she does enter the Celebrity Big Brother house.

Fern Britton
Fern is a television presenter and author, best known for co-presenting Breakfast Time back in the 80s. She also presented This Morning for six years. A source told The Sun that Ferne "wants to show the public a different side to her, unscripted and unapologetic." Can't wait!

Sharon Osbourne**
Sharon Osbourne is the next celebrity rumoured to be entering the Big Brother house. She judged on The X Factor alongside Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh and is the wife to iconic rocker, Ozzy Osbourne. Given her huge personality and candidness, we think she'd be make for some amazing telly!

Levi Roots
You might recognise the name Levi Roots from your kitchen cupboard, as he's known as the man behind Levi Roots' Reggae Reggae Sauce. He got his start in business on Dragon's Den, and now he's said to be the next famous face entering Celebrity Big Brother.

Colson Smith
Colson plays policeman Craig Tinker in the ITV soap, Coronation Street. Now, he's said to be swapping the cobbles for the Big Brother house. "They're thrilled he's keen to enter the nation's most famous house because he's a big name already loved by millions of viewers and they were hellbent on securing someone from Corrie as it's great cross-promotion for ITV," a source said.

Gary Goldsmith
Royalty is rumoured to be entering the Big Brother house, as uncle to Kate Middleton, Gary Goldsmith, may be going in. Yes, really! “The CBB team love him because of his link to Kate and the fact that he’s confident and loud and won’t hold back," a source said. "He’s made it clear he will talk about everything and anything, and he’s pretty outspoken when it comes to Harry and Meghan."

**The rumor regarding Sharon is that they couldn't afford her salary demand to stay for the whole season, so she'll be staying in the house for only a week mid-season.

Overall, a very satisfying season! A good top two, either David or Nikita would have been a worthy winner. Congrats David!

Louis was insufferable the entire time, mean and smug and thoughtless. But the public kept him in till the finals for "the drama" which makes me question their taste in enterainment...

Bradley's eviction just broke my heart, coming right before the finals. But what was worse was the way they did it. They directed each housemate to go into the garden, and they each received visits from a loved one. (At this point, the public had been voting for the final eviction.) They brought Brad in last, and instead of a loved one, AJ the host came in to tell him that he was evicted. He's such a sweet kid, he took it well, but the rest of the house was gutted. He was such a source of joy in the house, and he brought attention to the neurodivergent by taking part. I hope he takes the exposure he got and runs with it.
