1980's gay pop star, Marilyn is to join the cast of Celebrity Big
Brother in January, according to popbitch.com. And there are quite a
few more gay icons going in too.



Marilyn had a major hit in 1983
with Calling Your Name, and appeared on the original Band Aid single,
Do They Know It's Christmas. Much of his success can be contributed to
Boy George, since Marilyn was a close friend.



Despite the
initial collaborations between George and Marilyn, the friendship
became increasingly strained due to fame and drug-related problems. In
1986, Marilyn, along with Boy George's brother Kevin O'Dowd, was
sentenced a charge of possessing heroin. The resultant media fallout of
Marilyn's drug addiction and disputes with Boy George seriously damaged
his career.

Other gay faves rumoured to be joining the Celebrity
Big Brother House are H from Steps, Julie Goodyear who played Bet Lynch
on Coronation Street, and Paul Michael Glaser, the original Starsky on
Starsky and Hutch.



Dirk Benedict, Jermaine Jackson, Sharron Davies and Gavin Rossdale are also supposedly earmarked for CBB 07.

ELECTRICITY

THE ONES WHO CHASE YOU

George's heels are about as long as Jamelia's.
