CELEBRITY SAS has signed up another two BIG stars for the new series.
The Sun can exclusively reveal that X Factor legend Lucy Spraggan and Drag Race star Bimini Bon Boulash will be putting themselves to the ultimate test on the Channel 4 show.
A TV insider said: “Both Lucy and Bimini are ready for a challenge – and to prove to the public that there’s more to them than what people have seen on Drag Race and X Factor”
Lucy shot to fame on The X Factor in 2012 with her original song but had to quit due to illness, finishing ninth.
Despite this, she was signed to Columbia Records and made history as the first star to have a Top 40 single and album before the live shows aired.
Last year she became the first X Factor star to perform at Glastonbury and was invited on tour by James Blunt.
Next year, she has her own headline tour coming up along with another album release scheduled.
Bimini, whose real name is Thomas George Graeme Hibbitts, appeared on the second series of Drag Race UK and finished as runner-up.
They made waves at London Fashion Week, debuting for ART SCHOOL S/S 21 and returning for A/W 21 alongside fellow Drag Race alum A’Whora.
In 2021, the star released their debut single God Save This Queen.
Both Bimini and Lucy are gearing up to join the upcoming sixth series alongside footballer Troy Deeney, and Love Island stars Chloe Burrows and Adam Collard.
Controversial figures like Peru and two-time jailbird Michaella McCollum will also be part of the lineup later this year.
While other names are yet to be announced, the celebrity edition of the series aims to raise funds for Stand Up To Cancer.
Known as the world’s toughest reality show, Lucy and Bimini will undergo rigorous SAS training techniques in challenging terrain, set this season in New Zealand.
Previous seasons have seen the show film from the Wadi Rum Desert in Jordan to the Vietnamese Jungle.
The gruelling nature of the series has led to celebs being withdrawn on medical grounds, often due to injuries, hypothermia, and heatstroke during previous seasons.
In the previous season, Gareth Gates made it through the course and came out on top, beating former MP Matt Hancock.
Directing staff Jason Fox, Mark Billingham and Rudy Reyes are all expected to return for the upcoming series.
Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins returns to Channel 4 later this year.
