Stormy Daniels dropped out of 'Celebrity Big Brother' minutes before the launch show on Thursday (16.08.18).

The 39-year-old porn star was a huge signing for Channel 5, as she was expected to speak further about recent allegations she made that she slept with US President Donald Trump in 2006, but had a furious bust-up with producers after demanding more money and is now believed to be on her way back to the US.
Stormy was offered £750,000 to take part but demanded an extra £100,000 when she arrived in London.
A source told The Sun: "From the outset it was clear something was wrong and once she sat down with the producers all hell broke loose. They just didn't get on.
"Stormy point blank refused to appear on the show on Friday night when she was scheduled to go in.
"They tried everything to persuade her to stay and no one could work out why she'd fly all the way from the US to London before deciding to drop out. Let alone turning down that massive fee.
"Eventually her people said she would go on for an extra £100,000, but 'CBB' said no, so she just walked away.
"To say it's been a nightmare is an absolute understatement. Everyone is completely baffled."
A mock-up of the White House had even been created in the 'CBB' house for Stormy but it was still put to good use by the other contestants, with former 'Cheers' star Kirstie Alley appointed President of the house on launch night.
The actress was the first star to enter the famous abode on Thursday evening and it wasn't long before she was given a special task.
She was told by Big Brother: "You are the first to enter the house but BB has a much bigger role for you than First Lady. You will be the president and have special powers and privileges. The public will vote for one of your fellow housemates to be Vice President.
"To help them decide, you should ask questions as you meet each housemate this evening...
"You should not reveal you are president before BB's official announcement."
Following Kirstie into the house was former 'Coronation Street' star Ryan Thomas and the show ended with the public vote revealing he had been voted in as her deputy.
