Following the success of this summer’s ‘UK vs USA’ series, two more American names have reportedly signed up for the forthcoming series of ‘Celebrity Big Brother’.
Vanilla Ice, best known for his rap single ‘Ice Ice Baby’, has been tipped to be making an appearance in the new series of ‘CBB’ this January, having previously taken part in ‘Dancing On Ice’ and ‘The Farm’.
After attracting the attention of the world’s media, Nadya faced a backlash when it emerged that she already had six children, and was living off welfare in the US.
Emma Willis will be back to front the new series of ‘CBB’, when it returns to our screens in January, on Channel 5.
10 Stars You Forgot Did 'Celebrity Big Brother'

Mark even appeared to have forgotten that he'd done 'CBB' himself, when - shortly after Take That's comeback - they said they were pleased none of them had done reality telly in their break.So that wasn't you winning 'Celebrity Big Brother' in 2002, then, Mark? (credit:Rex/Philip Toscano)
Germaine Greer(02 of10)

Feminist commentator Germaine Greer lasted just five days in the 'CBB' house before walking, following the arrival of her housemate, Brigitte Nielsen's mother in law, Jackie Stallone.Why anyone would pass up the opportunity to spend any time with Jackie is beyond us, but we're sure Germaine had her reasons.

H from Steps(03 of10)

He may be a big character, but H's stint in the house in 2007 was somewhat overshadowed by the racism controversy that surrounded the series that year.Apparently, being a 'Celebrity Big Brother' housemate also made H forget how to do his shirt up properly too. (credit:Rex/David Fisher)

Everyone remembers George Galloway's appearance on 'CBB' - largely thanks to one spandex suit, and one unforgettable cat impression - but he isn't the only Scottish politician to have been in the house. (credit:Rex)

She may be now known as a co-presenter on the 'Great British Bake Off', but one of Sue's lesser known accolades is her stint in the 'CBB' house back in 2002, when apparently camouflage-print cargo trousers were all the rage... (credit:Andy Butterton/PA Archive)
Martin Kemp(06 of10)

He started off the series as the favourite to win, but ultimately the former 'EastEnders' actor and Spandau Ballet guitarist's time in the 'CBB' house was surprisingly uneventful, and he finished in third place behind Colleen Nolan and Julian Clary. (credit:Ian West/PA Archive)
Vinnie Jones(07 of10)

Hardman actor and ex-footballer Vinnie Jones spent four weeks shacked up in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house with Stephanie Beacham, 'The Thong Song' singer Sisqo and Alex Reid - a far cry from his A-list life on set with Ian McKellen, Brad Pitt and Halle Berry. (credit:Rex/Channel 4)
Ivana Trump(08 of10)

The highlight of Ivana's time in the house was when she'd been convinced as part of a task that she'd won a sought-after European award, only for her housemates to drink water out of it and, eventually, smash it. She also donned some questionable flesh-coloured underwear as part of a life drawing task. (credit:Rex/Channel 4)

David didn't have much time to make an impression on viewers during his short-lived time in 'CBB' last summer - he only managed to last 10 days before being given the boot. (credit:Karwai Tang via Getty Images)
Jack Dee(10 of10)

He might prefer not to mention it now, but Jack Dee was the first ever winner of 'Celebrity Big Brother' back in 2001. The whole series might have only lasted eight days - a walk in the park compared to latter day runs - but even that was too much for Jack, who at one point famously tried to tunnel his way out of the house.
