Will these be the new Bigg Boss inmates?
Last updated on: September 22, 2011 18:25 IST
Former world heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson has reportedly been finalized as a participant in Big Boss 5.
The show starts in October and will be hosted by Bollywood stars Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt.
Although it's quite a big news, this is not the first time that an international celebrity will enter the Bigg Boss house. Last season, former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson made a special appearance and proved a ratings booster for the show.
The late reality TV star Jade Goody appeared in the show in 2008.
Besides Tyson, there've been reports about several other probable participants. As surprising as the names are, we are pretty sure this will be one helluva season if all these people actually make it.

This former cricketer and reality show judge is (in)famous for his wisecracks and Sidhuisms.
It'll be interesting to see how his fellow-inmates respond to them if he decides to take this offer up.

22-year-old Nihita Biswas's claim to faim is that she's convicted murderer Charles Sobhraj's wife.
She's probably filling in the shoes of Monica Bedi, who was also an inmate in one of the previous seasons of the reality show.

And this one is pretty huge.
None other than pop icon Lady Gaga might grace the Bigg Boss house in a guest appearance, just like the buxom Pamela Anderson did last season.
Barbara Mori

The Bigg Boss guys seem to be going all out this season. Spanish beauty Barbara Mori didn't get her dream launch in Bollywood when Kites failed.
But she'll be a huge draw in the reality show.
