Celebrity Big Brother producers are reportedly targeting a RuPaul's Drag Race UK star for the upcoming new series.

ITV is reportedly in discussions with four stars of RuPaul's Drag Race UK about appearing in the new series of Celebrity Big Brother.

The broadcaster is bringing back the reality show on ITV1 this March following on from the successful revival of the civilian series late last year.

According to The Sun, producers are keen to have a Drag Race star on the cast and have four contenders in mind - Blu Hydrangea, Bimini Bon Boulash, Tayce and Baga Chipz.

A source told the newspaper: "Bosses are keen to get a star from the show on the celebrity series - they've chatted to Bimini, Baga Chipz, Blu Hydrangea and Tayce already. It's all early stages but looking positive."

Other celebs linked with the show include former This Morning presenter Phillip Schofield, WAG Rebekah Vardy, Strictly Come Dancing head judge Shirley Ballas, former The X Factor judge Louis Walsh and Boris Johnson's former associate Jennifer Arcuri.
