Whispers of both stars began circulating on social media over recent days but the final line-up will not be officially unveiled by Channel 5 until launch night. Speaking to Express.co.uk about the rumoured list - which includes Jake and Bianca as well as previously tipped stars such as Kristina Rihanoff and Darren Day - a source who claims to have connections with the reality series said: "If the show was to start today, that would be the line-up.

"Obviously it could change as there's just under a month to go." Jake's management politely declined to confirm or deny the speculation when contacted, while Bianca's did not respond.

If the show was to start today, that would be the line-up Source

The drag queen, real name Roy Haylock, 40, has appeared on Big Brother's Bit On The Side with former housemate (and Drag Race judge) Michelle Visage in the past, and is tipped to make a big impact on the house in January. A spokesperson from betting outlet BoyleSports said: "Bianca Del Rio or Roy Haylock as he will be known in the Celebrity Big Brother house would be a fantastic addition to the show and is expected to win over the public with his charming wit. "Once the rumours had emerged we quickly saw some shrewd punters latch onto his price of 5/1 to win." Jake was one-eighth of Stereo Kicks before their split earlier this year, after scoring a Top 40 single with Love Me So.

Jake has been attempting to launch a solo career and recently told the Daily Star: "For me it's about being a solo artist now. "At the end of the day I have to focus on my career rather than looking at what [former bandmates] are doing." Celebrity Big Brother launches on January 5 on Channel 5.
