Louis Walsh

When asked if he’s going to dish the truth to his housemates, Louis said: “I’m just going to be honest. I’m just going to be me, I can’t be anybody else!”

When asked if he’ll be the life and soul of the party in the house, David said: “What do you think AJ? Of course I will!”
However, some viewers aren’t impressed so far! One person said: “David Potts. There’s always one to ruin a series, isn’t there?”
Another wrote: “Can we all agree now to get David out first, if only for the utter BS he was spewing on #BBLL last series!”
A third added: “OK I’m done already. It’s a no from me.”

As all the housemates were confirmed, viewers shared their thoughts on X. One person said: “Stop moaning that there are no celebrities in #CelebrityBigBrother. We all know they’ll deliver the drama! I think it’s going to be great!”
