The “Apprentice” cast member and Trump campaigner, Omarosa Manigault, has decided to leave the White House to compete inside the Big Brother house.

Mark McGrath

“Celebrity Apprentice” alum and singer Mark McGrath will also be joining the first season of “Celebrity Big Brother.” McGrath is no strange to reality TV shows and competitions since he has already served as guest judge in “American Idol.”

Marissa Jaret Winokur

The “Hairspay” broadway cast member also starred in “DWTS” during Elizabeth’s season. Entertainment Weekly is already speculating on a possible alliance between the two houseguests.
