Celebrity Big Brother includes a porn actress, a Loose Woman and two X Factor losers on the controversial reality show

Is Gail Porter REALLY fit to enter the Celebrity Big Brother house? Troubled star joins porn actress, Loose Woman and two X Factor losers on controversial reality show

She admitted to having 'severe OCD' and fearing the show like a 'nightmare' in her introductory VT for Thursday night's Celebrity Big Brother.
So, as Gail Porter became the fifth housemate to enter the 2015 house, the famously bipolar star was shaking like a leaf; needing comfort on her way in from show host Emma Willis.
She joined porn actress Jenna Jameson, 'sex-obsessed' Tila Tequila and X Factor rejects-turned-reality-TV-couple Stevi Ritchie and Chloe Jasmine Whichello, who entered as one housemate.

Representing Britain, Scottish star Gail claimed to have quite severe OCD when she referred to the cleanliness of the CBB bedrooms.
She began: 'What irritates me, is just people with hair.' 
Gail later joked: 'I get nervous about things that aren't funny, so if someone said "Oh, there's been a murder" I'd laugh but it's not funny. Because murder's not funny.'
The former model - who catapulted to fame as the familiar face of Live & Kicking and Top Of The Pops in the Nineties - has a known history of depression and was more recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
Inside the house, Gail immediately hit it off with fellow mum - and self-confessed 'control freak' - Natasha Hamilton (from Nineties pop band Atomic Kitten) with whom she bonded over their pre-teen children.

Natasha - who gave birth to her fourth child last September - became the third of 12 contestants to appear on the launch show; with her famous partner Ritchie Neville cheering from the sidelines.
Gail is expected to have less in common with sex-obsessed US stars Jenna Jameson and Tila Tequila, who spent their interview time with Emma making innuendos and lewd comments.
The gorgeous duo contrasted in black and white outfits, but ultimately made the most of their curvaceous shapes with figure-hugging dress. 
Of course, in this year's line up the only eligible batchelor to enter the house was former Apprentice star James Hill, who claimed he didn't have a 'type' of woman.

Meanwhile, at 64, British national treasure Sherrie Hewson from Loose Women kept things classy in a sparkling full length frock as she was welcomed into the house by presenter Emma.
Surprisingly, stunning television star Sherrie said she was hoping for eye candy inside the house, but said she certainly wouldn't be taking her clothes off.  
This series will feature a UK vs. USA twist, in which the stars from each side of the Atlantic will be pitted against each other in some of their tasks. 
Thus the second contestant into the house was an American star, Fatman Scoop, best known for his Noughties hit Be Faithful.

Hollywood heavy hitter: Daniel Baldwin followed his brother Stephen's example and went into this year's show
Looking sharp: He wore jeans with a grey blazer
 Men of the house: (Left) Daniel Baldwin entered for the American side, while Apprentice star James Hill (right) was flying the British flag
He was closely followed by Austin Armacost, who previously dated international fashion designer Marc Jacobs and is better known as a model.
He received harsh booing from flag-wielding crowd, who didn't take well to his introductory comments about being in London.
This year's twist - known as the 'all-star summer smackdown' - follows controversy over the number of American contestants in last year's show and is expected to be a source of arguments and perhaps a few transatlantic romances.
This was particularly clear when extremely patriotic Londoner Chris Ellison - originally an actor in The Bill - started a chant for the UK and said he was dreading an American housemate who didn't know Paris was in France.

Later entering the house, US Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham tried to get the British crowd on side by wearing a Union Jack gown.
The star hit the headlines most recently for her botched lip job, but also claimed to have a nose job, a chin implant and fake boobs.
British stars Chloe Jasmine and Stevi Ritchie also opted for the red, white and blue theme; dressing eccentrically in union jack flags.
Contestants' new look house reflects the same theme.

It has been decorated with both British and American iconography, including stars, stripes and numerous Union Jack patterns to make each side feel right at home.
The early 2015 series was known as the TimeBomb series and featured a series of themed tasks where time was the object. 
Emma Willis presented the opening of the August 2015 series, deciding to stay out of the battle by avoiding the blue vs red colours and diplomatically wearing all black.
She introduced the transatlantically transformed house, which features a 1950s American diner, a red telephone box shower and the Statue Of Liberty at the centre of their pool.

The battle began straight away, when the six British housemates won a challenge which took place in the garden.
As a reward they were thrown a house party, but the British stars had to pick people that weren't allowed to come. 
In one final twist, Janice Dickinson and Bobby Davro were introduced as the thirteenth and fourteenth stars with the potential to join the show on Friday night.
The US vs UK pair would have to fight it out to be president or prime minister of the house.
