Cocozza for Celebrity Big Brother?

Frankie Cocozza could be making a return to TV screens

X Factor reject Frankie Cocozza is reportedly set to compete in Celebrity Big Brother next year.

The party-loving teenager - who was booted off the ITV talent contest last month amid drugs allegations - is said by The Sun to have signed a five-figure deal to appear on the reality TV show when the new series begins on Channel 5 in the new year.

Meanwhile, X Factor finalist Amelia Lily - who was voted back onto the show after Frankie was kicked off - has returned to her home town of Middlesborough to perform at her old school.

The 17-year-old pink-haired singer told The Sun she had been unpopular at Teeside High because of her unusual style and love of rock music.

She said: "It was the best experience to be back there and see girls being so nice to me and supporting me.

"I was always different in school, I was always the odd one out. People just didn't get me. I always liked different music and dressed differently and had my own style.

"Now it's like they understand why I was like that. I was meant to be an artist, I was meant to be a singer. It was hard, we were only young. When you're young you don't understand - it all makes more sense to me now."

Fellow finalist Marcus Collins, 23, returned to his old school, Sacred Heart High in Liverpool, and visited the salon where he worked as a hairdresser before auditioning for the show. Marcus then performed in the city centre for fans.

This isn't a good time to make travel plans. Weather conditions and work responsibilities have a way of wreaking havoc with your schedule. Wait another few days before putting down a hefty deposit. Working behind the scenes will yield significant rewards. If someone asks you to serve as their assistant, go ahead and accept. The pay will be excellent and there will be a lot of fringe benefits, too. Don't talk about a neighbour's private life in mixed company.More
