Celebrity Big Brother 2018: Bosses confirm HUGE shake-up as line-up bombshell revealed
CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER bosses have confirmed an enormous twist when the show returns in January.
The infamous Channel 5 reality show will launch with an "all-female" cast to celebrate the centenary of women's suffrage.
What's more, a tantalising teaser from the programme has hinted that the line-up will be as diverse as ever.
The women that enter the Borehamwood bungalow first will range "from politicians to performing artists" and will mingle together before the men arrive.

It seems that gender will take precedent, with a spokesperson confirming: "The housemates will take part in a series of entertaining tasks and hidden experiments which will test their - and our - assumptions, challenge gender stereotypes and reveal fascinating truths about what it is to be a woman - and man - in the 21st century."
Emma Willis will return to present Celebrity Big Brother while Rylan Clark-Neal will resume his position hosting Bit On the Side.
Earlier this year, Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding emerged the winner of the star-studded series.
The 36-year-old shared a steamy romance with fellow housemate Chad Johnson, 30.
However, when the pair left, their turbulent relationship nose-dived and they confirmed their split earlier this year.
