Reid latest name linked to 'Celebrity Big Brother'

Tara Reid is set to enter the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house.

The ‘American Pie’ actress is being lined up by bosses to compete in the reality TV show when it re-launches on Channel 5 next week.

The 35-year-old star – whose other movies include ‘The Big Lebowski’ and ‘National Lampoon's Van Wilder’ – could also be looking for love in the house as she is single after cancelling her wedding to internet entrepreneur Michael Axtmann in May 2010.

A source said: “Tara will be a fantastic addition to this year’s line-up.”

Reid is set to compete against Pamela Anderson and ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ star Amy Childs.

Another new name rumoured to be entering the house is troubled singer Bobby Brown.

The ‘My Prerogative’ singer is wanted by bosses who think his tales about his life with ex-wife Whitney Houston and battles with drug addiction and alcohol abuse will attract viewers.

Bobby, 42, has previously appeared in several reality shows in the US, including ‘Celebrity Fit Club’.

Other famous names believed to be competing on this year’s ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ include Kerry Katona and her mum Sue, ‘Big Fat Gypsy Weddings’ star Paddy Doherty and Jedward.
