Atomic Kitten singer Natasha Hamilton has emerged as one of the hot favourites to enter this summer’s Celebrity Big Brother house.

The latest batch of housemates will go in during the live launch show on Channel 5 tomorrow night, and Natasha is strongly rumoured to be among them.

The mum-of-four, who lives in Cheshire, would make up part of the Brit contingent in a UK versus US theme, following her bandmate Kerry Katona for a stint of TV mansion incarceration.

She’s already tested the reality waters, appearing on ITV2’s The Big Reunion and ITVBe’s Seven Days With... which followed her and partner Ritchie Neville’s day-to-day lives for a week.

But would she be prepared to leave not only Ritchie but 13-year-old Josh, 10-year-old Harry, Alfie, 4, and baby Ella to live with some highly-strung strangers?

The rumour mill is suggesting Natasha could be joined by TV presenter Eamonn Holmes, The Apprentice cheeky chap wide-boy James Hill, X Factor’s Stevi Ritchie, TOWIE’s Gemma Collins and Dan Osborne, bare-chested star of last year’s Epstein Theatre panto.

On the US side, names so far linked with the show include supermodel Janice Dickinson, glamour model and former porn star Jenna Jameson and yet another Baldwin brother, Daniel.
