Meet the Celebrity Big Brother 2024 housemates
Celebrity Big Brother returned to TV screens tonight after an almost six year break, in a show which welcomed 12 brand new housemates and one celebrity lodger!
Leaving luxury behind, the celebrities will take part in nominations and tough tasks with cameras capturing their every move. Who will win the hearts of the nation, go all the way to the finish line and be crowned the winner?
Sharon Osbourne was the first entrant of the evening, however it was revealed that instead of being a fully fledged housemate, she was instead a celebrity ‘lodger’.
Sharon was given a secret task by Big Brother to secretly judge the new celebrity housemates on first impressions alongside her friend and new housemate Louis Walsh.
The pair had to pick three housemates to put in the firing line for eviction this week. At the end of the show, Sharon picked Gary, Zeze and David to be in the firing line.
Tomorrow, each of the three housemates will visit Sharon in her secret lair to plead their case for staying in the house. The housemate who convinces Sharon the least will face eviction this week.
