Brendan's not the only one who’s been approached for reality TV, with I’m A Celebrity bosses trying to ‘sign up Buster’
BRENDAN O’Carroll has revealed he turned down £150,000 to appear on Celebrity Big Brother.
The next series of the show starts on January 2.

Mrs Brown's Boys star Brendan O'Carroll, here as his character Agnes, has turned down a deal from Celebrity Big Brother bosses
The actor, who found fame as the lead character in Mrs Brown’s Boys, told The Daily Star: “I had a tentative chat about Celebrity Big Brother but I just decided it’s not for me.
“I’d be homesick.”

They also report how 62-year-old Brendan’s son Danny, who plays Buster in the BBC sitcom, was approached by I’m A Celebrity bosses.
Brendan explained: “He was asked to do the Jungle but turned it down. He hates spiders.”
The comedian said he would be homesick, despite the reported £150,000 fee

His wife Jennifer Gibney, who plays Cathy in the show, took part in Strictly Come Dancing in 2014.
Brendan joked her experience on a competitive show put him off for life after saying Jennifer was “exhausted” by the end.

If Brendan had signed up, he would be joining Rachel Johnson, Ashley James, Andrew Brady, Jonny Mitchell and Charlotte Leslie.
The Sun exclusively revealed these stars were heading into the house earlier this year, with more names to be revealed soon.
