AceShowbiz - The full cast of upcoming season 2 of "Celebrity Big Brother" has been announced. The sophomore season of the "Big Brother" spin-off will once again feature a slew of famous houseguests including Anthony Scaramucci, Kandi Burruss, Ryan Lochte and more.
If the first season had Omarosa, the former White House aide and "The Apprentice" alum, as one of the cast members, the sophomore season will see the former White House Communications Director Scaramucci. "The Mooch" is joined by disgraced Olympic swimmer Lochte and "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Burruss.
Also among those who are going to compete in the new season of the CBS reality show are Jonathan Bennett (a.k.a Aaron Samuels), Tamar Braxton, Tom Green and Joey Lawrence. Lindsay Lohan's mom Dina Lohan is also among the new Houseguests following rumors of her being offered big money for the TV gig amid her bankcruptcy case.
In addition to them, former WWE star Natalie Eva Marie and NFL runningback Ricky Williams are joining the crew. Meanwhile, Julie Chen will return to reprise her hosting duty.
The new cast members will be living under the same roof with one Houseguest being voted out of the house each week. The winner will go home with $250,000 grand prize. It's said the participants will receive a $100,000 guarantee in addition to $5,000 "every time they survive one of the eight evictions." Meanwhile, favorite house guest, which is chosen by the viewers, will be awarded with extra $25,000.
Season 2 of "Celebrity Big Brother" is set to debut with a special two-night premiere on CBS. The first episode will air on Monday, January 21 at 8 P.M., while the second episode will follow on Tuesday, January 22 at the same time.
