THE leaked Celebrity Big Brother line-up is FAKE, with at least four names on it definitely not entering the house.

The Daily Star reported that Towie's Pete Wicks, presenter John Leslie, Geordie Shore's Nathan Henry and Human Ken Doll Rodrigo Alves were all taking part, but we can reveal that's not the case.

Reality hunk Pete turned down the opportunity, while Leslie had signed on only to pull out, and the other two were never in producers' plans.

The celebrities we exclusively revealed are signed up to the show - Jemma Lucy, Sarah Harding, Jordan Davies, Brandi Glanville, Amelia Lily, Sam Thompson, Paul Dannan, Shaun Williamson and Derek Acorah are all still going in.

CBB producers are convinced they have a really strong line-up that will guarantee strong viewership among fans.

A TV insider said: “These three will all be fantastic housemates.

"They all have plenty of experience on reality shows, meaning they know full well what makes for good TV.”

They continued: “Bookers have secured a great mix of celebs. There are some household names and plenty of reality stars.”

A statement from Big Brother producers said: “Our celebrities will take a break from their hectic schedules for a stay in the country’s top celeb retreat… the Celebrity Big Brother house.

“It’s sure to be holiday heaven for some and a holiday from hell for others.”

The current series of Big Brother will end on Friday, July 28 meaning bosses have just four days to turn the house into a "high-end retreat inspired by celeb hotel hang-outs".

Earlier today we revealed the latest addition to the house was former EastEnders star Shaun Williamson, who was an Albert Square stalwart from 1994 until 2004 when Janine Butcher famously pushed his character Barry Evans off a cliff to his death following their shotgun wedding in Scotland.

After Barry met a grisly end, Shaun went on to have a regular role in Ricky Gervais’ Extras.

Now he’s going to be dishing the dirt on starring in one of the country’s biggest soaps when he enters the house next month.

A source told us: “Celebrity Big Brother bosses are delighted to have Shaun as part of the line-up.

“He played an iconic character and everyone recognises him.

“Soaps fans will love him in the house and he’s going to go down a storm with viewers.”
