A ‘Big Brother’ spokesperson said: "There will be one final housemate position up for grabs which will be decided by the public in tonight’s live launch, from a selection of candidates.
"The lucky housemate voted in by the public will become the People’s Housemate and will hold great power within the house, even having access to the outside world."
Kayleigh, 28, is hoping she will be able to prove she is more than just a "bimbo" on the reality show.
On why she wanted to go on ‘BB’, she said: "You will be put in an environment where you will either sink or swim with lots of different personalities."
Chanelle, 24, has vowed to cause "mayhem".
She said: "I want to let my wave down and cause some mayhem."
And Lotan, also 28, has vowed to "bare" his soul.
he said: "I want to lay it all bare and put myself through the test in this unique and intense experience."
The People’s Housemate will be announced on the live launch show on Monday night (05.06.17).
