Big Brother

Chuck Liddell says he's still VERY serious about taking another MMA fight -- he's even naming names -- and kept up his training regimen inside the "Celebrity Big Brother" house ... just in case.

For the record, Chuck's 48 years old -- and hasn't had a pro fight since UFC 115 in 2010.

But he trains like a maniac -- and made it a point to keep up his workouts during "Celebrity Big Brother" because, "I didn't want to get too far out of shape."

So, who does he want to fight? He's got some ideas in mind ... but adds, "Depends on who they offer. I'm down for just about anything."

Chuck's record is 21-8 and he's widely considered one of the most iconic UFC fighters of all time ... beating legends like Randy Couture and Tito Ortiz in their primes.

Unfortunately, he was the first celeb booted from the 'Big Brother' house.

Omarosa went to the hospital last week after a dizzying bowling competition on "Celebrity Big Brother" ... and the game seemed pretty intense on TV.

The former White House staffer was among the first guests to partake in the game -- aptly called Bowlerina -- in which players have to spin around to lower a gate guarding some pins ... and then try bowling them over from afar.

Omarosa went up against Marissa Jaret Winokur, and kinda got her ass handed to her in the process. More importantly, though, she had to spin around twice to lower her gate ... and appeared to suffer an asthma attack as a result.

As we reported ... Omarosa was sent to the hospital after the game, which left some house guests speculating she faked the attack to get some rest outside the house.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner thinks Omarosa's Donald Trump-Bill Cosby comparison is unfair ... because she knew what she was getting into BEFORE she went to work with the Prez.

The former 'Cosby Show' star was at LAX Friday when he addressed Omarosa's convo on "Celebrity Big Brother" with Keshia Knight-Pulliam. She tried to justify being loyal to Trump by pointing out Keshia stuck by Cosby during his sexual assault trial.

MJW's not having it, and explains he and Keshia grew up with Cosby -- long before the flood of sexual misconduct allegations -- and considered him family.

Malcolm adds ... Omarosa made a conscious choice to get in with Trump, despite all his controversial comments on the campaign trail.

Omarosa was loyal "to a fault" when it comes to standing by President Trump, which is exactly like standing by alleged rapist Bill Cosby ... according to her.

Trump's former aide was running her mouth about life in the White House Thursday night on "Celebrity Big Brother" ... trying to rationalize why she's stuck by Trump for so many years. She was pleading her case to Shannon Elizabeth and Keshia Knight Pulliam.

Then Omarosa masterfully pulled Keshia into the mix by pointing out how she stood by Cosby during his rape trial.

Keshia was left speechless.

"Celebrity Big Brother" is out to spill secrets this season, because producers are plying the contestants with truth serum in the form of booze.

Production sources tell TMZ ... the bigwigs have changed the policy of limiting alcohol consumption ... the spigot is wide open and the cast is taking full advantage. Omarosa, James Maslow, Brandi Glanville, Ross Mathews and the other houseguests have partaken every night since January 31 when they entered the house.

The buzz we're hearing ... producers want Omarosa to spill the beans on her tenure in the White House. She's already started, turning on Trump ... saying everyone should be worried about the Prez, saying things in the W.H. are "so bad."

The show used to be stingy in the alcohol department ... it was typical contestants would share 2 bottles of wine and a few 6-packs each night, but producers are worried celebrities play things closer to the vest than the average Joe, so a little alcohol -- or a lot -- always does the trick.

Omarosa's diss on President Trump's White House didn't go unnoticed -- because 45's Deputy Press Secretary confirmed she was, in fact, fired from her job.

Raj Shah was fielding questions in place of Sarah Huckabee Sanders Thursday and got asked about Omarosa besmirching the rep of the White House on "Celebrity Big Brother" the night before.

His response ... the White House doesn't take her comments very seriously. He also deaded the much-debated topic of her departure a couple months ago ... she was fired, according to him.

Shah elaborated with this ... Omarosa had been fired from "The Apprentice" 3 times prior ... and that "this would make the 4th time we let her go."

He also said Omarosa had very limited contact with the Prez while on the job, and has zero contact with him now.

Omarosa's tears were flowing on "Celebrity Big Brother," and the topic of convo getting her all worked up ... her time spent under President Trump.

The former White House staffer was having a heart-to-heart with fellow houseguest Ross Mathews, who questioned why she went to work for the Prez in the first place. Omarosa explains she felt it was a call to duty to serve her country -- not Trump -- but things turned sour pretty quickly.

To be fair ... 'Big Brother' contestants are known to play up the theatrics, but Omarosa certainly seemed sincere when she told Ross she was "haunted by tweets every single day" and attacked by Trump's other staffers when she tried to advise him.

Sean Spicer considers Omarosa's new gig with "Celebrity Big Brother" a laughing matter ... and a huge step down!!!

We got Trump's former White House Press Secretary Tuesday in NYC, and asked if he'll be watching his former colleague on the reality show. Spicy laughed and said anything after the White House is a downgrade. Odd for him to say, since he's in post-WH mode, too.

We also asked Spicer if he has advice for the Prez ahead of the State of the Union address. It's amazing how quickly he fell back into podium mode.

Omarosa's latest reality gig on "Celebrity Big Brother" gives her a chance at a massive payout ... and the longer she survives the house, the more cash she'll walk away with.

Sources close to the production tell TMZ, each of the show's celeb house guests signed a base deal of about $200k. We're told the longer the celebs stick around, the more they can get paid. Our sources say the winner will take home a cool $500k.

The cash won't come easy -- O's up against world class athletes Chuck Liddell and Metta World Peace, singer Mark McGrath and 'Housewife' Brandi Glanville -- just to name a few.

May the best most cut-throat celeb win!

Omarosa's got herself a new gig even before her speaking gig starts -- and it's back on reality TV ... as in "Celebrity Big Brother" on CBS.

Omarosa was announced as one of many stars that'll be in the 'Big Brother' house next week in a quick promo that played right before the 2018 Grammy Awards began Sunday.

She'll be in there with the likes of Shannon Elizabeth, Brandi Glanville, Keshia Knight Pulliam, Chuck Liddell, Metta World Peace, and lots more. The first episode's set to air next Wednesday ... so we'll find out who else is there soon enough.

As we reported ... Omarosa recently signed on as a speaker with the American Program Bureau after leaving her job at the White House. She'll be asking for up to $50k for gig, depending on the venue.

"Big Brother" star Amber Siyavus' daughter has died from an apparent suicide ... TMZ has learned.

Lexi Tomcavage died Monday night in Ohio, and her death is being investigated as a suicide ... according to the Stark County Medical Examiner. On Sunday, Lexi tweeted 3 times about missing her friend who recently died ... saying "i miss you" and "never been like this before."

Siyavus was a houseguest on Season 8 of 'BB' and was known for her frequent crying. Fans gave her the nickname "Whamber." She finished in 7th place.

Amber's daughter, Lexi, was 18.

RIP

UK Celebrity Big Brother fans got an eyeful of famed drag queen Courtney Act Friday night on live TV ... as her skirt suddenly tore away during her big entrance.

The show's debut -- always a huge event on English TV -- was airing on BBC when Court strolled down a grand staircase, and then shockingly lost it all. With no underwear for safety, the broadcast cut away to a super-wide overhead camera angle ... while Courtney scrambled for the skirt.

Courtney, whose real name is Shane Jenek, picked up, carried on and entered the BB house ... and is now quarantined.

"Big Brother" star Jessica Graf -- aka the anal invader -- wasn't feeling all the nudging about her butt poking ... so she bailed.

We got Jessica -- flanked by fellow co-star and bf Cody Nickson -- outside Clifton's Thursday night in downtown L.A. for the "Big Brother" cast party and our guy tried digging about her controversial schtick -- approaching unsuspecting houseguests from behind and surprising them with a 2-finger checkup.

Jessica's having none of it ... so fed up she stops the autograph sesh and takes it inside.

It's all fun and games ... until someone starts poking.

"Big Brother" contestant Jason Dent was way out of bounds when he joked about raping the wife of houseguest Kevin Schlehuber ... this according to Kevin's wife, who's deeply disturbed by Jason's remarks.

Kevin's wife, Deborah, tells TMZ ... Jason making those comments on the show's live feed, while laughing hysterically, is the worst thing she's ever seen. She says while her husband signed up for 'BB' and all that comes with it ... she and her kids didn't.

Deborah also calls BS on Jason's family's apology and claim that the jokes were taken out of context -- because it would never cross her husband's mind to say something so horrible.

Kevin and Deborah have 7 children together -- 6 of them girls -- and she works as a neonatal nurse in Boston. She says they're a nice, hardworking family and she's appalled her husband's season of "Big Brother" has turned so ugly ... mostly due to Jason.

"Big Brother" contestant Jason Dent thinks rape is seriously funny -- he went full LOL while talking about having sex with another housemate's wife ... while forcing the guy's kids to watch.

The footage is pretty disturbing ... Jason was cracking up on the Internet live feed Monday, joking he was going to f**k Kevin Schlehuber's wife if Kevin turned on him in the game. A female housemate, Alex Ow, was laughing along as Jason joked he'd also tie up Kevin's daughters and "make them watch."

Fair to say ... the 'BB' house is getting out of control. Remember, Jason also made a rapey comment earlier in the season -- saying he'd hold down a female housemate so other guys would be able to 'backdoor her.' Not to mention the rampant butt and genital poking that's been going down.

The "Big Brother" house is a cauldron of sexual shenanigans ... or so it seems judging from the 24-hour live feeds.

It's shocking ... a male cast member grabbing Jessica Graf's vagina, women butt poking men, men butt poking women, men butt poking men, and it's all on video.

TMZ broke the story ... Jessica appeared to start it, and it seemed it was to the dismay of other housemates. But now we see, it's become a thing in the house.

These latest clips show Matthew Clines, Paul Abrahamian, Ramses Soto and Elena Davies all partaking in a sneak butt poke or two. Paul gets 2 off, both on male cast members ... one of whom Elena also pokes. Jessica Graf even accuses Matt of punching her vagina ... and her roommates laugh.

It's interesting ... Matt called Jessica a sexual predator when she poked his ass, and Paul later complained to Kevin about Jessica's ongoing poke joke in the house.

We got Les Moonves out at Craig's last night and he said he hadn't seen the footage of Jessica, but he would watch it today.
