Former Calvin Klein model and longtime pro soccer player Freddie Ljungberg is being considered as a contestant in the next British "Celebrity Big Brother" as a way to boost the number of gay viewers. Reports the Daily Star:
A CBB insider said: “The man is unbelievably attractive and won’t just have the girls hot under the collar. He’s a massive gay icon so we know his male admirers will be desperate to spy on him in the house.
“And who wouldn’t want to share a house with him?"
Ljungberg, from Sweden, has posed for a British gay magazine and when asked by the New York Times about gay rumors, simply said: "There’s been a gay rumor for a long time. I don’t mind at all. I am proud of that. I love fashion, and I think so many gay people have amazing style."
He is currently without a team for this season.
