THIS WEEK IT was announced that TV3 acquired the rights to Celebrity Big Brother.

Which Irish celebs could we expect to see on the show?

1. Cormac Branagan from Tallafornia

Needless to say, Cormac’s main job would be looking after the shopping list.

Five eggs per bloke per day.

2. Mattress Mick

Irish mattress mogul Mick Flynn is well known for being charitable, helping out the local community where he can and having a great sense of humour. His poignant Humans of Dublin interview also showed his softer side too. Mattress Mick would be the voice of reason in the Irish Celebrity Big Brother house.

3. Vogue Williams

Vogue has proven to be a very entertaining interviewer in her recent TV shows. Vogue William’s Wild Girls was like Louis Theroux meets The Simple Life.

For that reason, I could see Vogue getting into some arguments to defend her beliefs on CBB. It’s also easy to imagine her engaging in a romance that ultimately leads to several dramatic and emotional conversations in the house’s smoking area.

4. Suzanne Jackson

So Sue Me would be a good addition to the house because she would really thrive on the smoking area chats. Then again, it’s easy to see her asking to leave the house early because she misses her dogs Coco, Harper, Bella and Dylan too much.

5. Jim Corr

Jim Corr’s conspiracy theories would really start conversations in a potential Celebrity Big Brother House. He could use the platform to discuss some of his theories:

• 9/11 was an inside job
• Swine flu may have been man made
• The American military caused the 2010 Haitian earthquake
• Climate change is a hoax
• The Illuminati are trying to create a one world government

6. Brian McFadden

All reality TV shows of this nature have to bring somebody’s ex on to cause a bit of drama, so why not bring Brian McFadden, ex-husband of Vogue onto the show.

He’s made a bit of a name for himself on Twitter by, to put it lightly, losing his temper a few times. He’s threatened to choke people tweeting them with the cord off their mouse. He also called his ex-wife Kerry Katona a “pig faced mole” online during an argument.

There’s no doubt that Brian would bring a bit of drama to the house.

7. The Happy Pear

Reality TV loves twins. Jedward have had their moment in Big Brother and I don’t think they’re in any rush to go back, so let’s give The Happy Pear twins a go. David and Stephen Flynn would always be going around barefoot and doing stuff like handstands all day. They have as much energy as Jedward anyway.

8. Bláthnaid Ní Chofaigh

Bláthnaid is outspoken and isn’t afraid of talking about issues that are important to her. She speaks about everything from sexism in the workplace to adult urinary incontinence.

A few years ago she told The Mirror that when she’s intimate with her husband she speaks Irish. She also recently rugby tackled a mugger near Merrion Square. Total reality TV material.

9. Blindboy Boatclub

Channel 4 News Channel 4 News

Another voice of reason but also someone who would keep the seat out in the smoking area warm. Would be a big fan of the generic white beer cans that come in the weekly shopping (once Cormac doesn’t intercept it and send back everything but the eggs).

10. Katie Taylor

Every Big Brother house needs a normal enough contestant who’s not there for drama or arguments, just to highlight how odd the rest of the housemates are. Since she’s never been phased by fame I don’t see why Katie Taylor wouldn’t suit that role.

11. Cian Twomey

TV3 will get two people here for the price of one because he will keep pretending to be his own girlfriend the whole time he’s in the house. If this does not drive the other housemates up the wall, I don’t know what will.

12. Twink

Twink, but also her dog Teddy. Teddy has been kidnapped and rumoured to have fainted live on air too. The excitement never ends for this pair.
