What’s this? Barely clothed midgets belly-dancing on film behind closed doors in front of total strangers? No, no – it’s not just another one of Elton John’s parties… it’s actually just a bit more Big Brother 9 build up.

The Daily Star has revealed that BB insiders have lined up 25-year-old Rima Hadchiti from the Aussie version of the show for a switch to the UK house when it opens its doors in June. Metre-high Rima recently caused uproar Down Under (so to speak) when explicit shots of her surfaced on the internet.

“This was one of the show’s most closely guarded secrets,” said a source. “They have been looking for different candidates who can really make this year’s show a hit. Rima is perfect – she’s a tiny person with a huge heart and larger-than-life personality. Fans will love her.”

In other news, it turns out that Claire Young, currently busy with the job interview from hell over on BBC1’s The Apprentice, has previously auditioned for Big Brother a whopping four times.

Claire’s colleagues, who affectionately refer to her as The Rottweiler, reckon she’s desperate for fame. “The last thing she wants is for Sir Alan to discover she’s a fame seeker,” the source added.

Claire Young for next year’s I’m a Celebrity? Place your bets now.
