Celebrity Big Brother gears up for new series with Rylan Clark and Jordan tipped as housemates

Celebrity Big Brother is getting ready to hit the screens again and along with the new image of presenters Brian Dowling and Emma Willis, comes housemate speculation.

X Factor contestant Rylan Clark is the hot favorite to enter the house when the show kicks off in January.

Ladbrokes bookies are offering odds of 1/2 that the flamboyant singer will appear on the show, and is even the 3/1 early favourite to win the series.

According to the Daily Mirror, a spokesperson explained: “Rylan’s hot property now he’s established himself as a fully fledged celebrity and it’s impossible to see him turning down a future in reality TV.”

Ryan’s besty Katie Price (aka Jordan) is also tipped to join his in the house.

Katie is reported to be considering taking part in CBB either in January or next summer.

Katie’s ex-husband Alex Reid won the show in 2010, and some reports suggest Katie is worried she won’t live up to his success on the show.

A source told the paper: “Signing up Katie would be a massive coup for CBB and bosses are really keen to get her to sign on the dotted line.

“They have given her the option of going in the new series or the one in the summer. Producers have also approached Rylan and the pair of them in the house together would be hilarious.

“But there would be pressure on Katie to win as she wouldn’t want to play second fiddle to Alex who won in 2010.”
