CBS announced on Sunday that former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci will be among the contestants on the second season of Big Brother: Celebrity Edition premiering Monday, January 21. Last year, during the show’s first season, former Trump adviser and Unhinged author Omarosa Manigault-Newman made news by confessing to her fellow housemates how “bad” things were getting in the White House. Asked if things would be OK for the country, she said, “No, it’s going to not be OK. It’s not. It’s so bad.” Other “celebrities” joining The Mooch in the house will be Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte, Lindsay Lohan’s mother Dina Lohan and O.J. Simpson trial witness Kato Kaelin. Scaramucci was ousted from the White House in the summer of 2017 after less than 11 full days on the job. If he makes it through the entire Big Brother season, he will win the grand prize of $250,000.
