Celebrity Big Brother is back, and this time around there is a twist. Don\u2019t worry, no one\u2019s suitcase got blown into smithereens this time around. (Sorry, Jenkin!)<\/p>\n

As viewers have seen, a new group of celebrities have entered the Big Brother house, all ready to ensure they remain in there for three weeks in the hopes of being crowned the next winner.<\/p>\n

However, one celebrity won\u2019t be in there for that long: Sharon Osbourne entered the house during tonight\u2019s episode, but it was confirmed that she wouldn\u2019t be a full-time housemate like the others, but she will instead be in there for five days as the show\u2019s \u201clodger\u201d.<\/p>\n

So, how will she interact with the other celebrities and what will her role be in the Big Brother house? Read on for everything you need to know.<\/p>\n

Why is Sharon Osbourne a guest housemate on Celebrity Big Brother?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It has been widely reported that Osbourne will be in the house for up to five days.<\/p>\n

\u201cSharon is a guest housemate and won\u2019t be going in on launch night,\u201d a source told The Sun<\/a>. \u201cInstead, she will come in once the show has started and will be there for a few days.<\/p>\n

\u201cBosses did all they could to get Sharon and finally reached a deal she\u2019s happy with,\u201d a source told the publication. \u201cProducers cannot wait to see her reunite with Louis and know that it will be TV gold.\u201d<\/p>\n

The exciting twist was announced during tonight\u2019s episode, with AJ Odudu revealing that Sharon will be this year\u2019s lodger. Sharon will take on a secret mission, deciding which three contestants should go up for eviction. She will then decide on Tuesday\u2019s episode which one person will automatically face the public vote.<\/p>\n

Despite her only being in the house for a short amount of time, Osbourne will reunite with fellow X Factor judge Louis Walsh.<\/p>\n
