Celebrity Big Brother US spoilers indicate that Omarosa Manigault has already been tipped to win this upcoming season of CBBUS. In fact, host Julie Chen even hinted that all eyes and ears will be on Omarosa this season.
During a new interview with TV Guide, Julie Chen admitted that one of the reasons why the show cast Omarosa is because they knew she would be a controversial houseguest. Viewers recognize her name because of her ties to her former employer, President Donald Trump. And because of Omarosa, Celebrity Big Brother US producers are hoping that viewers will tune in with record-breaking numbers.
Julie told the publication, “You can’t tell me every news organization isn’t going to have to monitor her in the house to see if she says anything about the White House or the president. So it’s amazing. Whether you are offended by her or you don’t really have a big opinion of her, it’s kind of like wow, really?!”
Of course, time will only tell if Omarosa Manigault will manage to walk away with the $250,000 grand prize. Right now, she’s got the best advantage in the CBBUS house: she’s the biggest star and a lot of fans also think that she’s got a lot of things she might want to get off her chest. After all, she was just recently fired and publicly humiliated by the White House. It will be interesting to see if Omarosa will use Celebrity Big Brother US as an opportunity to dish all of the dirty details about her last job or if she will remain quiet.
But then again, Omarosa does have some tough competition. If there’s one person who will give her a good run for her money, it’s Brandi Glanville. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star said herself that she’s a reality television veteran. She’s appeared on the British version of Big Brother and knows the game well. Plus, Brandi knows that there’s no such thing as bad publicity. She’s one housemate who knows how to keep her name in the headlines. It might be a battle to the very end between Omarosa Manigault and Brandi Glanville.
Celebrity Big Brother kicks off on Wednesday, February 7 at 8pm EST on the CBS network. Viewers will be able to tune in to CBBUS live feeds 24 hours a day.
