This year’s series of Big Brother kicks off on Thursday and sadly Samantha Mumba will not be a housemate.
According to the Mirror Online, the Body II Body singer has been sought after by bosses of the Channel 5 reality show for years but has repeatedly turned them down, despite being offered a “huge six-figure” sum.
They also say she's too busy concentrating on her music and is gearing up to start recording and performing once more.
