Some of the tabloids are reporting the following as the female hms for 2009 CBB.

MUTYA BUENA (23)
Formerly with the girl band Sugababes. She is now pursuing a career as a solo singer.

From Wikipedia:
Rosa Isabel Mutya Buena (born 21 May 1985 in Kingsbury, London), known professionally as Mutya Buena, is a BRIT Award-nominated British singer and songwriter, who rose to fame as a member of the pop group Sugababes.

Her family currently lives in Kingsbury, London. She attended Kingsbury High School. Mutya is of Filipino, Chinese, Irish and Spanish decent. Her name "Mutya" means "muse" or "pearl" in Tagalog, the official language in the Philippines. She has five brothers (Bayani, Charlie, Chris, Danny and Roberto) and two younger sisters, Ligaya and Dalisay; another sister, Maya, died in 2002, and the song "Maya" on the album Three is dedicated to her. On 23 March 2005, Mutya gave birth to 5lb 10oz Tahlia-Maya Buena, her first child with boyfriend Jay. She named her child Tahlia-Maya in memory of her sister, Maya.

The original line-up of the group consisted of friends Keisha Buchanan, Siobhan Donaghy and Buena, who met at a party in 1998. Since scoring a record deal, the band has gone on to become one of the most successful UK-based female groups in British history - second only to the Spice Girls in terms of record sales. They have had four platinum selling albums, six number one singles, a BRIT-Award as well as a platinum-selling greatest hits album. However, in late 2005, Buena announced that she was leaving the group because of "personal reasons". Her replacement, Amelle Berrabah, joined the group in December 2005, the Sugababes' second member change since Siobhan Donaghy left in 2001, being replaced by Heidi Range.

Since her departure from the Sugababes, Buena has worked with a range of record producers and artists, including BRIT and Grammy Award winning and platinum-selling jazz artist Amy Winehouse, George Michael and dance music writers Groove Armada. The first single to be released in the UK featuring Buena was that of a sultry ballad duet with George Michael, entitled This Is Not Real Love. Released in November 2006, it was UK Top 20 hit after reaching no. 15. It also appeared on Michael's greatest hits album Twenty Five. Following this, Buena toured with Michael on the London and Manchester leg of his 2006 25 Live tour. The duet between Michael and Buena is also included on Buena's debut album Real Girl.

Buena began working on her debut album in early 2006, after signing with her previous label Universal Island Records. Preceding the album, the title track "Real Girl" was released in early 2007. It was a big hit in the UK, making it to no. 2 in the charts, as well as having a BRIT Award nomination for "Best Single". The song samples Lenny Kravitz's hit "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over", and was produced by London-based production company Full Phat. Following this, Buena's debut album Real Girl was released, and made no. 10 in the UK amid mixed reviews from critics and fans alike. The album only held a place in the UK Top 40 Albums for three weeks, quickly dropping off the chart.

Buena performed at V Festival on 18 August and 19 at Hylands Park, Chelmsford and Western Park, Staffordshire. She also appeared at T4 On The Beach 2007 on Sunday 22 July. Buena also covered Tracy Chapman's classic "Fast Car" in 2007 for BBC Radio 1 as part of the "Radio 1 Established 1967" 40-year anniversary.

The third song to be released from the album was "Song 4 Mutya (Out of Control)" , her collaboration with dance duo Groove Armada. The song received rave reviews from Popjustice reached position 8 in the UK charts. The fourth release from the album was Just a Little Bit which reached 65. Buena then collaborated with Amy Winehouse, on a re-working of the track Be My Baby by The Ronettes, entitled B Boy Baby which only reached number 73 in the UK top 75. Mutya's debut solo album Real Girl, was certified as Gold, after selling more than 100,000 copies.

On 1 October 2007, Buena was nominated for the 2007 British "Music of Black Origin" (MOBO) awards. The MOBO Awards was held at the 02 Arena in London.

On 14 December 2007, she stood in at the last minute for the ill Jill Scott on the BBC Two program Later with Jools Holland, fronting Scott's band singing Real Girl and Just A Little Bit which the band had learned in one hour.

On 12 February 2008, Mutya was dropped by her record label due to poor sales and charting positions from Real Girl and her last two singles, Just a Little Bit and B Boy Baby[citation needed].

Mutya is currently working on her second studio album with record producer Dave Michigan ready for release in late 2009.

On July 15th, Mutya and fellow artist Jody Lei set up talent agency Real Girl Productions to "try to give other talents a chance." The pair are currently looking for singers, producers, writers, DJs, dancers, models, and musicians to be signed to Real Girl Productions. In the Myspace blog that Mutya posted to promote the agency, she explains their aim is to "try to do something positive with the youth today."

On October 31st, Mutya appeared on Alan Carr's Celebrity Ding Dong, On behalf of the Sugababes. In January 2009, Mutya will be featured on Asher D's second single "With You" off of his forthcoming album. She is also rumoured to be a contestant on Celebrity Big Brother[2009].

PAULA HAMILTON (47)
Former model, judge on Britains Next Top Model. Paula was the actress in the Volkswagen ads of the '80s but disappeared from our screens for a number of years to sort her alcohol and drug addiction.

From Wikipedia:
Hamilton was brought up in South Africa by her mother and stepfather. At age 11, her grandmother told her that her real father was actually a family friend in County Durham. She met him once, but her mother later insisted he was not her father. It wasn't until Hamilton was 27, that her mother admitted she had lied. By then, however, the man had been dead for 13 years, having been murdered with a pickaxe handle.

She is dyslexic and left school at 15. Paula’s success didn’t come without a fight. At the age of 17, after several rejections as a model, she moved to Tokyo and worked non stop for 18 months. She then established herself in Australia and Germany before moving to Italy.[2] After being discovered by photographer David Bailey, she became the main model of the Queen's couturier Sir Hardy Amies. Her successful modelling career was, however, hampered by her battles against alcohol, cocaine and depression. During a tough interview with top Italian photographer Fabrizio Ferrei, Paula was told her hair was too long for the job. She promptly cut her hair, got the job, and went on to learn the tricks of the trade at Ferrei’s side. It was at this point she realised a successful modelling career has more to do with ‘your energy and spirit within’ than any outside appearance.[3]

Hamilton reached the zenith of her modelling career at the age of 27, when she became a household name as the star of one of the most iconic television adverts of the 1980s, for the Volkswagen Golf - the popularity in the UK of the Mk II drew from the 1987 advert. "Changes" starred Hamilton, made up to resemble Diana, Princess of Wales. She is seen leaving her husband, posting her wedding ring back through the letterbox and ditching her mink coat, chucking the house keys at the cat, rejecting the fur coat and pearl necklace - but keeping the car keys. "If only everything in life was as reliable as a Volkswagen" ran the tagline. The advert began a new era in car advertising (Armstrong 1998 p15)[4]

In 1996 Hamilton featured in the music video accompanying hugely successful British boyband Take That's last single "How Deep Is Your Love" in the 90s. The single reached number one on the UK singles chart.

In 2006, it was announced that Hamilton, at the age of 45, has been re-signed by the leading agency Models 1, who hope to capitalise on the popularity of more mature models led by Twiggy and her successful advertising campaign for Marks & Spencer[5]. She was also a mentor and judge on the second and third series of Britain's Next Top Model on Living TV, presented by supermodel Lisa Snowdon. It was revealed in late December 2007 that Paula was to be replaced by Icelandic Supermodel Huggy Ragnarsson, for cycle 4. Fellow colleague and judge, Jonathan Phang, was also replaced by stylist, photographer and designer, Gerry Deveaux. [6] In addition to modelling, Paula turned her hand to presenting and acting, appearing in feature films ‘Mad Dogs & Englishmen’ and the ‘Life of a Serial Killer’. Having overcome a number of obstacles in her personal life, Paula released her autobiography, entitled ‘Instructions Not Included’, in 1996.

Hamilton is no longer with Models 1. She is now signed to Mandpmodels, also in London. Hamilton is one of the 12 celebrities rumoured to be taking part in the sixth series of controversial reality TV show Celebrity Big Brother.

She and Andy announced the end of their marriage on 5 June 2008 citing adultery on her part.[citation needed]

SHERRIE HEWSON (58)
The slightly, ok totally, ditzy panelist from ITVs Loose Women. She has appeared in various soaps including Crossroads, Coronation Street, Emerdale.

From ITV.com
Eccentric actress Sherrie Hewson can always be relied upon to offer a unique off view.

The off-the-wall panellist has been a hit with the Loose Women audience since 2003, thanks to her quirky outlook and self-deprecating sense-of-humour. Her cries to the studio audience, “Come on let’s hear you” and “Isn’t that right ladies?” have become her trademarks.

Sherrie’s best-known for her roles in Coronation Street, Emmerdale and Crossroads but has been in the limelight since she was six thanks to her showbiz family - her father was a singer. As a child she toured the UK singing and at 15 won the prestigious Olivier Award for Best Newcomer. She later studied at RADA.

In the 70s Sherrie changed her surname from Hutchinson as she was advised it was too long, and embarked on a varied television career with parts including Z Cars, Home to Roost, Love for Lydia, Carry on Laughing and Russ Abbot’s Madhouse.

Her role as accident-prone Maureen in Corrie launched her career in soaps in 1993. Audiences loved her portrayal of the ditzy shop assistant and her comedy partnership with on-screen husband Reg Holdsworth has been one of the soap's most popular double acts. Sherrie waved goodbye to Weatherfield in 1997.

In 2001, she made her second appearance on an ITV1 soap as uppity receptionist Virginia Raven in the Crossroads’ revival. The soap ended in 2003 and Sherrie became a regular panellist on Loose Women. To complete the ITV1 soap hat-trick, Sherrie joined Emmerdale in 2004 as Lesley Meredith. Sherrie remained with the soap for two years.

But there’s more to Sherrie than acting. In March 2008, she revealed a hidden crime-writing talent after winning BBC show Murder Most Famous. Her novel will be published in 2009 as part of Pan Macmillan's ‘quick reads’ in celebration of World Book Day.

In 2004 Sherrie and her husband of 25 years Ken Boyd separated. Sherrie has a daughter Keeley and baby grandson Oliver.
