Sinitta axed from Celebrity Big Brother after bosses refused to meet her 'most ridiculous rider ever' diva demands
SINITTA has been axed from the Celebrity Big Brother line-up after show bosses refused to meet her list of diva demands.
According to the Daily Star, show sources have revealed that her ridiculous list of requests – including a bodyguard with her at all times, including when she was asleep – became too much to accommodate her.
The source told the paper: "We were thrilled to get Sinitta on board as she is a laugh and could let slip some embarrassing secret about Simon Cowell.
"But her demands were the most ridiculous we've ever seen."
The So Macho singer had previously revealed to OK! Magazine that she was in negotiations with the Channel 5 show ahead of their summer series which starts in early August.
But even she admitted at the time that they were having trouble bending to her wants and needs.
She told the magazine: “I’ve given them my rider, but there have been complaints.
“I just asked for a few things that would make it nice because they’ve asked me every year and I’ve always said no. But if these things could happen, then I could do it.”

Opening up about her particular requests, she revealed that she wanted her puppy to come and visit her.
Sinitta, 53, added: “I want a swearing ban, because I don’t swear and people shouldn’t be allowed to swear at me or around me. I asked for a bodyguard who would stand with me at all times, especially when I’m asleep. If they provide alcohol then I want tequila because it’s all I drink. Quite reasonable, really.
“The producer said it’s the most ridiculous rider they’d ever had. It has gone a bit quiet, I must admit. But if you don’t ask, you don’t get!”
Sinitta's booting comes after it was revealed Dawn Ward from The Real Housewives Of Cheshire, Sinitta's biggest TV rival, had also signed up for the show.
The 80s singer and Dawn, 43, used to be pals but had a toxic fall-out in 2015 over a mutual friend.
During one major show-down Sinitta suggested Dawn’s footballer husband Ashley Ward had cheated on her, and Dawn hit back with venom.
She called Sinitta a “has-been one-hit wonder” who was “hanging on Simon Cowell’s coat tails”.
The Sun Online has revealed that X Factor star Amelia Lily was joining the show, alongside Girls Aloud's Sarah Harding, Absolutely Fabulous star Helen Lederer and Ex on the Beach star Jordan Davis.
