by Zakiya Jamal

Big Brother fans, rejoice! The moment you've all been waiting for is finally here. After last season of Big Brother, it was announced that there'd finally be a Celebrity Big Brother in the United States (the U.K. has been doing it for years), and fans have been anxiously awaiting to see who'll be entering the Big Brother house. Now the Celebrity Big Brother cast is finally here. Check out the full cast below and see if any of your favorite celebs made the cut.

When it came to who could be entering the house, one of the popular guesses was Tiffany "New York" Pollard, who first came to fame on the reality series Flavor of Love, but has since gained notoriety after appearing on the U.K. edition of Celebrity Big Brother and becoming a fan favorite.

Another potential houseguest was Shane Dawson, a popular YouTuber who has made it very well known that he's a Big Brother super fan. Super fans are often brought on Big Brother, though they tend to have varying degrees of success on the reality competition. Regardless, many believed Shane would be a perfect houseguest and would even have a good chance of winning the game.

So did Tiffany and Shane make the cut? Find out by checking out the list of this year's cast below.

Could this be the real reason Manigault left the White House at the end of last year? Who knows? Regardless, this won't be Manigault's first time on a reality competition series. Most became familiar with Manigault when she appeared on the Apprentice, which is how she first met President Donald Trump.

If you watched Nickelodeon in the 2010s you may recognize Maslow from the Nick series, Big Time Rush. If you didn't watch the series, you may have seen him on Dancing with the Stars Season 18.

In a funny twist of fate, the Broadway actress actually appeared on the same season of Dancing with the Stars as Elizabeth, but will that lead to an instant alliance or will they become instant foes?

Remember when Steve Harvey announced the wrong winner of the Miss Universe pageant? Well Gutierrez was the one who had to give up her crown.

Liddell is now a retired American mixed martial artist and former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion. No doubt that strength will help him with the physical competitions on Celebrity Big Brother.
