REGGIE BIRD’S PAYDAY BLUNDER

Fan favourite Reggie Bird is set to make her return to the new season of Big Brother in 2022 – but despite the new $250,000 prize money on offer, the mother of two is being paid peanuts! An insider close to the 2003 series winner says Reggie was given a mere two days to agree to be part of the show, and was not offered an up-front payment but simply a $170 per day rate. It’s in stark contrast to Sam Burgess’ reported $250,000 sign-on fee for SAS Australia – and has left Reggie’s inner circle furious. “It seems she’s been taken for a ride,” says a source. “Her return to the Big Brother house was meant to signal better times. Here’s hoping she wins again!”
