Sweet, caring and cute, strict vegetarian Carrie adores all animals and wouldn’t abide anyone who would be cruel to them. Originally a West Country girl, she is a keen shopper and follower of fashion and now lives in London pursuing her dream job of being a dancer. She loves a night out preferring Camden to the West End and she relishes gigs, festivals and supporting unsigned bands. Excitable Carrie, especially after a spoonful of sherbet, will be likely to be one of the more immature girly girls in the house which is likely to annoy the more mature girls such as Felicia and Kat. She will look up to the alpha females and is most likely to form strong friendships with Samuel, Jade, Laura and possibly Meddy. She will clash with Lydia due to her strong morals on animal rights.

Chrissie can only be described as one of a kind. A divorced Yorkshire lass with Burmese roots, she is part lady of leisure and part glamour girl. An avid blogger, she writes reams about her life and puts it up on line for anyone who will listen. Her annoying voice, unique sense of humour and outrageous laugh should grate on the other contestants. She is likely to get on well with Carrie, Jade, Meddy and Laura and will possibly clash with Felicia, Kat and Ola.

A wannabe songstress, Emma has had her taste of fame but with her girl band career now over, her endless persistence to be in limelight means she is back for more. The Girls Aloud reject is now pursuing a solo music career but is finding time to offer up her friendship to Paris. Emotional and sensitive, she’ll be certain to bring some tears and tantrums to the house. Although very sweet, genuine and caring, her desperate plea for fame leads to her constant overzealous nature which could annoy other housemates but she will stand up for herself in a fight and will be persistent in getting her point across. She is likely to clash with Kat, Ola and in particular Layla due to their similarity in the wannabe popstar stakes. Best mates in the house are expected to be Laura, Carrie and Jade.

Well spoken, posh totty Felicia, is a confident, competitive, independent and intelligent girl. Describing herself as feminine but boyish, she prefers to spend her time in male company especially hanging out at top London restaurants and nightclubs with her England rugby player boyfriend. No stranger to being in front of the camera, this wannabe television presenter and model will stir things up in the house with her mature attitude, high standards and competitive streak. She is liable to fulfil an alpha female role possibly competing with Kat, Layla and Ola to rule the roost. She will look down on the girlie girls such as Carrie, Chrissie and Meddy and she is most likely to form a friendship with Emma.

Scouser Jade has a loud, bubbly personality with looks and a figure to die for. This fashionista is never found far from the shops and she always dresses to impress as she never knows who she’s going to bump into. Her ditzy, clumsy character does get her into trouble though, she even crashed her car on the way to her first audition. Honest and straight talking she might annoy certain members of the house but her sweet nature will appeal to the girlie girls. She is likely to be overshadowed earlier on by other big characters but her distinctive accent with make her stand out (although, will Paris understand her?). She is likely to bond with Emma, Laura and Samuel and not get on with with Ola and Kat.

Sassy, feisty and brash Kat has huge amounts of energy and can be very excitable. Her career as a pole dancer makes her incredibly confident and mature. A tom boy at heart she loves hanging out with the boys but if she needs to ‘girl it up’ she’ll get her frock on and party the night away. Her confidence and honesty may lead to her being branded as ‘the bitch’ and she is likely to clash with any of the alpha females such as Felicia, Layla and Emma and also not be liked much by the ‘sweeties’ such as Laura and Carrie. There is a possibility she could bond with someone like Ola or Lydia.

Gorgeous, sweet and genuine, Laura is an Essex girl with a heart. She is a loyal friend who will go to the lengths of driving on a night out to ensure her mates get home okay. A finalist in last years FHM High Street Honey’s, this stunner will cause a lot of jealousy amongst the other contestants. The girls are likely to be envious of her sweet nature and striking looks. It’s likely she won’t have many friends, especially as she is one of the eldest in the house but a few may be drawn to her such as other sweet girls Emma, Carrie and Jade.

What you see is what you get with Layla. A hugely confident, alpha female character she says on first impressions she comes across as stuck up but actually she is just a down to earth girl. She hates bitchiness and although not hugely confrontational she can lose it when she needs to. She is likely to be the subject of bitchiness in the house and has the potential to clash with our other wannabe singers, Emma and Kat. She is likely to bond with the older girls, Laura and Felicia.

A professionally trained ballerina who loves rock and metal music, Lydia is not your usual Paris fan. She loves getting dressed up in alternative and edgy clothing and doesn’t care what people think of her look. Living on a farm in York, she enjoys horse riding and fox hunting, but leaves her quite rural life behind at a weekend and hits the hard core clubs of Leeds or Liverpool. Although Lydia is extremely chatty and she claims she can make friends with anyone, she is likely to be overshadowed by the other bigger characters in the house. She might be a bit of a loner only making a few friendships with the sweeter contestants such as Jade or Samuel. It is very likely she will clash with Carrie due to her strong animal rights.

This retro, motor biking, Barbie rock chick from the Valleys loves vintage fashion, classical music and her Chihuahua, Caden. An actress / model, she is regularly found spinning the decks at the local hospital with her popular volunteer radio show and equally sipping on cocktails up the Cardiff high street. Vintage vixen, Meddy will cause a stir in the house with her no nonsense attitude and her unique personality. She is likely to bond with Samuel and could be possible ‘fag hag’ material, competing with Carrie for his affections. Being a girly girl, she could annoy Felicia and Layla and possible friends could form between Meddy and Chrissie, Laura and Kat. She may also bond with Lydia due to their similar rock chick connections.

Promotions girl and model Ola will bring some glamour to the house. She’s a feisty, loud, party girl who much prefers to be too dressed up than dressed down. Her ability to speak her mind may come across as bitchy and she’s likely to bring some excitement into the house as she hates to be bored. She is likely to clash with the majority of the contestants and might only form one or two friendships with Kat and Meddy.

Our only boy on the line-up Samuel stands out with his individual style and loud character. A gay “Prince William” he describes his family as “chav-rich”, as they inherited rather than being born in to it. A confident character, he is not one to care what people think and will make his mark in the house. A slightly obsessive Paris fan he will be competitive and determined to win the show. He is likely to pick up a ‘fag hag’ in the house in the shape of Meddy or Carrie. He’ll love most of the girls but is likely not to get on that well with the more mature girls such as Felicia and Layla.
