Perez Hilton is reportedly the latest famous face to sign up for Celebrity Big Brother.

The American gossip blogger is to appear on the forthcoming series of the Channel 5 reality television show after negotiating a deal worth £150,000.

Show bosses are said to have been keen to sign Perez up due to his huge online influence, and hope he'll spill the beans on some public spats he's had with A-listers including Fergie and Lady Gaga - the latter of which accused Perez of "stalking" her.

Speaking to The Sun newspaper a source revealed: "Perez is a huge influence online, with a website that's one of the biggest in the world.

"He's also making a name for himself outside the web, having appeared on various telly shows and had run-ins with well-known celebrities.

"Perez loves Britain and the producers of CBB can't wait for him to star in one of the most talked about shows here."

It's thought that Perez - real name Mario Lavandeira - is to head to the UK following Christmas ahead of the January 7 launch date.

Other stars rumoured to appear include Katie Hopkins, Keith Chegwin and Calum Best, as well as Patsy Kensit and Michelle Visage.
