CBS is opening up the house early for "Celebrity Big Brother," announcing the 11 stars that will spend nearly three weeks locked away from the world, beginning Feb. 25. Unlike most seasons, though, these houseguests know each other. Click on through to see who's in, and how that knowledge might help or hurt them.

The first-ever “Apprentice” winner, Omarosa Manigault recently left Trump’s White House, where she was a communications director, though reports differ as to whether she resigned or was forcibly removed. She's got a shot to win because of her competition experience and she's a proven leader, but her political affiliations and signature outspoken behavior could drag her down.

While Metta World Peace is mostly known for changing his name now, the former Ron Artest is infamous for the “Malice at the Palace” brawl including fans and players that saw him get the longest suspension in NBA history. Fresh out of the sport, his competitive drive is still kicking hard and it’ll keep him motivated for awhile, but with that passion comes that temper that’s derailed his otherwise stellar professional career over and over again, and the “Big Brother” house is notorious for pushing people to their breaking point.

After rising to fame during three tumultuous seasons on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” Brandi Glanville parlayed that into a successful podcast, and bestselling writing career. In Aug. 2017, she was on the UK’s “Celebrity Big Brother,” so she knows what to expect, but her mouth gets her into trouble over and over again, which could be her downfall, and she can’t say no to a fight … or a glass of wine.
