American TV personality Tiffany Pollard shot to fame in the UK when she appeared on the 17th season of Celebrity Big Brother in 2016.
She entered the house with the likes of Gemma Collins, Megan McKenna, John Partridge, Stephanie Davies, Danniella Westbrook, and winner Scotty T.
The stacked cast did not disappoint, with several tantrums, screaming matches, Gemma's catchphrases and Stephanie's up and down romance with Jeremy McConnell making the headlines.
However, there was one moment from the series that will forever be etched in the Big Brother Hall of Fame.
During her time in the iconic house, Angie Bowie was informed by producers of her ex-husband David Bowie's death from cancer.
She quickly confided in fellow housemate Tiffany, whispering: "You can't say a word, David's dead."
After learning the news, Tiffany collapsed on the floor and screamed in disbelief as she had mistakenly confused Angie's ex-husband for their fellow contestant, David Gest.
Despite Angie urging her co-star to not tell anyone about her ex-husband's death, a distraught Tiffany quickly let slip the news to the rest of the house.
After several housemates ran to check on David Gest, who was resting in bed at the time, Tiffany was left feeling angry as she thought Angie had lied to her - before she later discovered the truth.
Ahead of Celebrity Big Brother's return to ITV and ITVX tomorrow night (April 7), let's take a closer look at Tiffany's life away from the show.
Life and Career
Tiffany first began her television career in 2005 at the age of 23, when she was working as a clothing buyer and walking down Hollywood Boulevard. She was noticed by a casting agent from 51 Minds Entertainment, leading her to be cast in US reality dating game Flavor of Love in 2006, and its spin-off series, I Love New York in 2007.
Her bubbly personality quickly landed her more on-screen roles in Brunch with Tiffany, Hot Haus, House of Villains, College Hill: Celebrity Edition and Celebrity Ex on the Beach.
In 2023, Tiffany was named one of Variety magazine's Most Powerful women on reality TV.
As well as her TV success, Tiffany has also been candid about her personal struggles, previously revealing that she had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
Speaking in 2017 about her mental health struggles, she said: "I own every inch of my personality now, so to admit that I do suffer from a little bit of bipolar disorder is just me being transparent, and it's true."
She added: "I think patience is a virtue when you're dealing with someone who does suffer from bipolar because one minute you can be so up in the clouds and the next you can just be so angry out of nowhere."
Tiffany has also been an outspoken advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community, and in 2023, revealed that she identified as queer.
"I have lived a very, very broad life. I've never been afraid to do anything that I wanted to do," she said on The Jason Lee Show last year.
Late and Live 2025
Nearly a decade after her TV gold moment, Tiffany is set to return to the world of Celebrity Big Brother as a presenter on the spin-off show, Late and Live.
She will be joined by last year's winner David Potts and Strictly star Oti Mabuse, with each of them taking turns in assuming the role of Celebrity House Guest.
Alongside hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best, the house guests will take part in hilarious discussions and deliberations alongside a star-studded panel every night.
An insider said: "There are no fans as passionate as those that love Big Brother and this booking's one for them. Tiffany is a solid gold show legend and is going to be brilliant on the Late & Live panel."
The line-up for this year's Celebrity Big Brother has been confirmed by The Sun, with the likes of Jack P Shepherd, Patsy Palmer, Donna Preston and Jojo Siwa set to enter the iconic house.
Celebrity Big Brother will return to ITV1 and ITVX at 9pm on Monday, April 7
