The 11 stars competing include Sugar Ray’s Mark McGrath, “Real Housewife” Brandi Glanville, former NBA player Metta World Peace, former UFC light heavyweight champ Chuck Liddell, American Pie actress Shannon Elizabeth, The Cosby Show actress Keshia Knight Pulliam, Big Time Rush’s James Maslow, Hairspray’s Marissa Winokur, TV personality Ross Matthews, and Ariadna Gutiérrez — you know, the woman Steve Harvey accidentally crowned Miss Universe in 2015.
However, the most shocking addition to the new cast is President Trump’s former adviser Omarosa Manigault-Newman, who was booted from the White House at the end of last year.
Following the cast reveal, many people took to Twitter to laugh at Omarosa as they tweeted:

Even Watch What Happens Live host Andy Cohen tweeted:
Because what else could Omorosa possibly do to follow up her important work in the White House but appear on Celebrity Big Brother?

And MSNBC correspondent Joy Reid tweeted:
TBH, Omarosa's next move out of this White House being to Celebrity Big Brother makes perfect sense.
