'Celebrity Big Brother' 2016: 'Geordie Shore' Star Marnie Simpson Tipped For Line-Up

She's been tipped to create 'explosive' TV.

In the long-standing tradition of filling up spaces in the ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ house with ‘Geordie Shore’ cast-offs, Marnie Simpson has become the latest name linked with a spot in this summer’s line-up.

No doubt hoping to follow in the footsteps of past winners Charlotte Crosby and reigning champ Scotty T, Marnie has been rumoured to be heading into the ‘CBB’ house next week.

Before she’s even set foot in the house, Marnie’s already been tipped for romance in the house, with the source adding: “Marnie is currently single again so there’s a chance she could find love in the house.

Marnie’s former ‘Geordie Shore’ co-star Ricci Guarnaccio also appeared on ‘CBB’ back in 2014, while Vicky Pattison is currently the reigning Queen of the Jungle, following a successful stint in the most recent series of ‘I’m A Celebrity’.

With just over a week to go until the new series of ‘CBB’ kicks off, the rumour mill is now in full swing, with Marnie said to be joined by housemates like US rapper Lil’ Kim, former Page 3 model Sam Fox and ‘Gogglebox’ favourites Stephen Webb and Chris Steed.

'Celebrity Big Brother' 2016: All The Rumoured Housemates
Azealia Banks(01 of15)

Azealia kind of has some making up to do to the UK, after essentially slagging off the country's music scene on Twitter at the height of her latest controversy.

Multiple outlets have claimed Azealia could be heading into the house, but given that their main source seems to be a tweet, we wouldn't hold our breath on this one (perhaps unfortunately).

Stephen And Chris From 'Gogglebox'(02 of15)

Yes, please.

These two were the very first celebs rumoured for the new series of 'CBB' - even before the regular series of 'Big Brother' started in June - and given their chemistry on 'Gogglebox', we'd love to see their catty Diary Room asides.

Sarah Harding(03 of15)

Given the impressive list of reality shows Sarah has already racked up since the end of Girls Aloud, 'CBB' doesn't seem too out of the question.

An insider told The Sun: 'She has been offered a lot of money to do it and she is incredibly tempted.'

Lil Kim(05 of15)

The self-professed Queen Bee is said to be getting a similar fee to Katie Price and the late David Gest, who are said to have pocketed the highest fees in 'CBB' history.

And while the successful rapper might seem like a long shot, it's worth noting her past credits include 'The Apprentice', 'Dancing With The Stars' and the short-lived reality show 'Lil Kim: Countdown To Lockdown'.

Helen Lederer(06 of15)

A natural housemate for Lil' Kim, Helen has been slated to be on the line-up for 'CBB', fresh from her appearance in the 'Absolutely Fabulous' film.

Helen's past excursions into reality television include 'Celebrity Masterchef', 'Celebrity Coach Trip' and an ill-fated appearance on 'Splash!'.

Jaymi Hensley(07 of15)

Intriguingly, the rumours about Jaymi's 'CBB' appearance seem to stem from a quote from Union J's manager, who said: 'If they were interested, I'm sure he'd do it.'

Nothing quite like outright asking if your client can go on 'CBB' in a public forum, is there?

Things have certainly gone quiet at Camp Flanagan since the birth of her daughter, Matilda, and it seems she could be about to jump-start her once ever-present spot in the tabloids with a stint on 'CBB'.

"Now that her daughter is a little bit older, it would be the perfect time for her to make her return to the world of showbiz", a source told *sigh* the Sunday Sport.

Samantha Fox(09 of15)

No, believe it or not, Samantha Fox has actually never done 'CBB'. We're as surprised as you are. (credit:Ian West/PA Archive)
Big Narstie(10 of15)

Another major YES PLEASE from us.

Sadly, though, while we think he'd be an amazing housemate, the reports about Big Narstie's 'CBB' stint stem from the same mysterious tweet that also lists Azealia, so let's not get too excited for now.

aka. Chloe Victoria, aka. Chloe Mafia.

Chloe's journey from 'X Factor' reject to webcam millionairess has been an interesting one, and we'd definitely be rooting for her in the 'CBB' house.

Well. This is just happening, isn't it? He was on 'Ex On The Beach'. He went out with woman of the hour Vicky Pattison for a while. Chuck him in the house, really. Yeah. (credit:MTV)

US exports Tiffany Pollard, Janice Dickinson and Perez Hilton have all proved to be worth the air-fare once they've landed in the 'CBB' house, and 'Mob Wives' star Renee Graziano looks set to follow suit. (credit:Dennis Van Tine/ABACA USA)
