FORMER Big Brother star Shabnam Paryani has re-emerged on social media and revealed her passion for aliens, UFOs, and all things cosmic — a far cry from her chaotic reality TV days.
It seems Big Brother series 8 star Shabnam has swapped fame-hunting for star-gazing and now shares content about space.

Big Brother fans will be happy to see the reality TV star is posting again
Shabnum asked Elon Musk for a lift into Space
In one video the ex-housemate wore a space-themed dress, telling fans: “Wishing you a universally blessed afternoon!”
In another she showed off her socks adorned with aliens and UFOs, adding: “Keep calm and groove on!”
Shabnum is also hoping she’ll get a ride on Elon Musk’s SpaceX rocket.
She tweeted: “Musky I want to go to Space, Shabs.”
Shabnam, who lasted just two weeks in the Big Brother house, made headlines for her celebrity obsession.
She was famously booted from a TV job after sneaking into Robbie Williams’ dressing room with flowers and chocolates.
Despite her rocky past, Shabnam’s X bio highlights her trailblazing side.
It reveals: “The First Lady in the UK of my Heritage to Come Out as a Bisexual Woman and pave the way for many people who gained the confidence. That’s why I did Big Brother.”
After her brief reality stint, Shabnum revealed she trained as an actress and took on roles like Anne Frank, filmed projects in Spain, and even walked in Bollywood fashion shows.
But her antics in the Big Brother house are unforgettable — from losing all her belongings as punishment to openly admitting she was only there for fame.
Fellow housemate Ziggy once said: “She is spoilt, bone-idle, and selfish…
“She has completely the wrong attitude, with delusions about what it’s going to be like on the outside.”
Ziggy and Chanelle‘s Big Brother romance captured the hearts of the nation.
They became the “Posh and Becks of Reality TV”.
Chanelle, who was a 19-year-old student at the time, walked out of house on day 62 of the programme, prompted by a row she had with Ziggy.
Despite immediately hitting it off in the house, the reality stars were unable to make the romance work in the real world.
It comes as AJ and Will are set to return for more Celebrity Big Brother in the Spring.
