Gary Busey is no stranger to reality shows. But he may not have interest in being a member of the Celebrity Big Brother cast. Busey took to Twitter to address a casting rumor and he stated that it is “not happening.”

Referencing a story that had run on website Celeb Dirty Laundry, Busey may have ended these particular Big Brother rumors. While some fans might see this as a red herring, people responding to Busey’s tweet gave their support to him staying away from the show.

Gary Busey has a reality show history

Long before Busey was coming up in Big Brother casting rumors, he was appearing on reality shows. The actor is best known for his roles in Point Break, Lethal Weapon, and Under Seige. But after that, he appeared on Dancing with the Stars, the British version of Celebrity Big Brother, The Apprentice with Donald Trump, and even Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.

Busey’s IMDb page is packed with appearances on television shows, not limited just to the well-known ones. Gary Busey also appeared on Celebrity Fit Club, Celebrity Paranormal Project, and World Poker Tour. His resume is why Busey is now appearing in US Celebrity Big Brother cast rumors.

Celebrity Big Brother schedule

The Celebrity Big Brother schedule begins on February 7. This likely means that there is a lot of time before the CBB cast becomes official. The casting team has not yet revealed specifics about who will be residing in the Big Brother house this winter. Quite a few rumors have been on social media about it.

Celebrity Big Brother is going to be a short installment of the franchise. Currently, there are only 13 CBB episodes on the schedule. That number could increase if the network is impressed with the ratings as the reality show goes up against the Winter Olympics on NBC.
