Following in the esteemed footsteps of another fired Trump administration official, blink-and-you-missed-him White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci will appear on season two of Celebrity Big Brother.
Omarosa Manigault Newman, Apprentice villain and former aide to President Trump, was on the show's first season, where she spoke openly about her experience in the White House. During Manigault Newman's time on the show, host Julie Chen Moonves tells The Hollywood Reporter, The Mooch was invited to appear that season, "and he turned it down. But now he will see the attention Omarosa got."
CBS revealed the entire cast on Sunday, with the first episode slated to air on Jan. 21. The celebrities vying for a $250,000 grand prize are: the world's most famous house guest, Kato Kaelin; Lindsay Lohan's mom, Dina Lohan; Real Housewives of Atlanta star and singer Kandi Burruss; Blossom star Joey Lawrence; Olympians Lolo Jones and Ryan Lochte; Mean Girls star Jonathan Bennett; comedian Tom Green; TV personality Tamar Braxton; former NFL running back Ricky Williams; and former WWE wrestler Natalie Eva Marie.
