Coleen Nolan is set to take part in Celebrity Big Brother.
The 47-year-old star, who recently quit her role as host of The Hub on This Morning, will follow in the footsteps of her former Loose Women co-star Denise Welch by taking part in the show when it returns later this summer.
A show insider said: "Coleen gives good chat and that's what we're really looking for on the show. She also appeals to women so she's a great booking for the show."
Coleen has reportedly been offered a six-figure deal to appear and producers hope she will bring some controversy to the show.
Other stars linked to the new series include former Coronation Street actress Julie Goodyear and Justin Bieber's dad Jeremy.
Outspoken model Janice Dickinson is also set to take part in the Channel 5 show and presenter Brian Dowling can't wait for her to cause havoc.
He said: "I've read that Janice Dickinson is going in. That bitch will take over the house. She's crazy, but in a great way."
The 33-year-old Big Brother host, who took over from Davina McCall in 2011, would also like to see Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle on Celebrity Big Brother.
He commented: "Amazing! Get her drunk. Get her talking about Cheryl Cole."
