Caprice to star in The Surreal Life

Caprice is to appear in an American version of Celebrity Big Brother.

Caprice, who took part in Channel Four's Celebrity BB in January, will appear in the upcoming fifth series of VH-1's The Surreal Life.

She will share a Hollywood mansion with Sandi Denton aka 80s rapper Pepa of Salt-N-Pepa, and Carey Hart, a US motorcross star and sometime boyfriend of singer Pink amongst others.

Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth, a reject on the first series of America's The Apprentice reality show, will also be joining the mansion along with baseball player Jose Canseco and Janice Dickinson, described as "the world's first supermodel".

Caprice, 33, was evicted from Big Brother with just five per cent of the voting public wanting her to win.

The Surreal Life will air in September.

CHUCK D APOLOGISES TO FANS FOR FLAVOR FLAV

PUBLIC ENEMY frontman CHUCK D has issued an apology to fans for bandmate FLAVOR FLAV's reality shows THE SURREAL LIFE and STRANGE LOVE.

The hardcore rapper admits he's ashamed of his former sidekick, who has been romancing Danish diva BRIGITTE NIELSEN on TV shows in America for the past six months.
In an internet posting on his website, Chuck D blasts, "His character and private issues are being trashed in front of millions for the mere sake of profit and ratings."
The rapper admits he's particularly upset by footage on Strange Love, which shows conflicts between Flav and his six estranged children.

A defensive Flaw, real name WILLIAM DRAYTON, says, "I wish Chuck would've come to me first."

Mr 'T' Labels Reality Show Stars 'Washed Up'

The Surreal Life

MR T BRANDS SURREAL LIFE STARS "WASHED UP': Former A-TEAM star MR T has branded the celebrities who agree to appear on hit reality show THE SURREAL LIFE "washed up".

The 53-year-old actor refused to take part in the VH1 show, whose participants have included VERNE TROYER, FLAVOR FLAV and BRIGITTE NIELSEN, was offered a part in the series, but immediately turned it down.

He says, "Everybody on that show is through - they're washed up. I told them to give me $5 million and I'd do that show; you don't insult me! They ain't dealing with no fool!"
