Interesting facts: WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO GET NOMINATED FOR? Sometimes if I find something annoying, I will speak my mind - but in the nicest possible way.

Dua Lipa fanatic and Pizza shop manager Gani said he would like to 'known by millions' and has already had a crack at an acting career before heading into Big Brother

He said: 'I see this as an opportunity not only for my personal growth, but also to help build the future of my personal brand'.

Asked what why he'd be nominated by fellow housemates Gani mused: 'When I’m triggered, I can raise my voice, and the other housemates may think that I'm being rude. It’ll either be that or that I’m speaking too much'.
