GAFFE-prone MP Boris Johnson is being lined up to star on Celebrity Big Brother.

Producers want the hapless Tory education spokesman to be this year’s political contestant after George Galloway’s infamous stint in the last series.

An insider said: “We’re talking to Boris because he is absolutely the right person we want on the show. Not only is he hilarious but he’s also a bright bloke who’ll stir up some interesting debates.”

But Boris will need the approval of Tory leader David Cameron.

Show bosses hope Mr Cameron will see it as a great opportunity to reach out to younger voters.

One said: “Cameron is all about appealing to younger voters with his blog etc, so he might allow Boris on.

“That said, Boris is known for being deliberately controversial so it could be more trouble than it’s worth.”

Producers would also need to get around strict broadcasting codes that regulate the exposure of politicians on TV. Boris is infamous for getting himself into trouble with his comments.

He recently put his foot in it after criticising Jamie Oliver’s school food campaign — and encouraged people to call the overweight “fatso”.

He also hit the headlines after allegations he cheated on his wife — earning him the nickname “Bonking Boris”.

Other rumoured names for the next series of the Channel 4 reality show include Baywatch star David Hasselhoff and 80s singer Adam Ant

I thought Adam Ant was dead then remember it was Adam Faith that was dead. Well Bonking Boris, I truly love this guy, he is just so funny.

of course Cameron will let Boris go on, Cameron will do ANYTHING for publicity, in fact i wouldn't be surprised if he tried to go in himself
and omg, the Hoff would be great! you can totally imagine him doing it, plus i'd love to see if he could keep that smarmy Mr Celeb thing going 27/4

Oh excellent, I love Boris Johnson he would make great entertaining viewing!!!

Seeing the Hoff and Adam Ant (didnt he go a bit mental and walked into a pub with a loaded shot gun determined to bump off some unfortunate soul who had said something unflattering to him??) in there would also be rather interesting too!!!

Looking for celebrities to unravel right before your eyes? So are we. So, thank goodness for Celebrity Big
Brother which arrives back on our screens in January 2007.

As last year's winner Chantelle milks her final few minutes of fame and we try to erase the memory of John McCririck slumped in his man-nappies picking his nose in Celeb BB3, it's time to welcome a new batch of fame-hungry celebs. But who's up for it?

Channel 4 is refusing to give anything away about this year's lineup but David Hasselhoff has been approached to star in the new series for a record breaking salary of £200,000! Channel 4 are hoping The Hoff, whose cheese-fest single Jump In My Car recently entered the Top 3, will be TV gold.

It's rumoured that The Hoff has already pulled out of playing Captain Hook in panto at London's Wimbledon Theatre so he can star in the show. The previous most expensive Celebrity Big Brother star was Michael Barrymore who is reported to have earned £150,000 for his stint on the show.

A Channel 4 insider has also told Ntlworld that troubled '80s pop star Adam Ant (pictured above) has been approached to star in the show. The Prince Charming singer, real name Stuart Goddard, is said to have been the subject of a furious bidding war between ITV's I'm A Celebrity (which begins next month) and Celeb BB. A TV insider is quoted as saying: "It's a mighty blow for I'm A Celebrity... because they really wanted him. Everyone joked that they would have ended up with two Ants in the jungle and one Dec!" Quite. However, Adam was diagnosed with bipolar disorder (a form of depression) in 2002 and it's thought incarceration in the BB house may affect his mental state.

So until the final lineup is revealed, here's Ntlworld's recommendations for this year's contestants...

Chris Tarrant: With a messy divorce on the horizon, Chris could be ripe for Barrymore style meltdown. But he won't be able to phone a friend if things do unravel...

John Prescott: The pie-guzzling, former Deputy PM may struggle with the strict food budget but it'll be amusing watching him trying to sneak out for midnight fridge raids...

Borat: Kazakhstan's most unwanted celebrity should offend just about everyone in the house although he may be a little too interested in the bathroom habits of the female contestants

George Michael: George would be a riveting contestant but unlikely to actually make it into BB towers. He'll probably fall asleep at the wheel of his car just outside the house...

Pete Doherty: Why does Pete keep getting out of bed in the middle of the night to meet a man tapping on the window and exchanging money for strange plastic bags?

* debs is very very very excited by this possible news*

BRITNEY Spears’ estranged hubby Kevin Federline is being lined up for Celebrity Big Brother.

The self-styled K-Fed — restyled Fed-Ex since the split from Britney — has been offered £150,000 to take part in the Channel 4 reality show.

Producers hope the 28-year-old will perform some of his cringeworthy “raps”.

An insider said: “Kevin is hugely entertaining because he takes himself really seriously — even though no one else does.

“He’ll be great for the show because it’s all about larger-than-life characters.”
