She was only a child when Big Brother was cancelled.
But that hasn't stopped Hallie, 18, a youth worker from London from joining the cast of the newly revamped show.
The teen has signed up for what has been dubbed the 'ultimate social experiment' as it returns to screens.
She's one of sixteen housemates who on Sunday night entere the brand new Big Brother house before a live studio audience as they prepare to compete for a £100,000 cash prize.
Hallie, who admits to being a huge Alison Hammond fan, said she caught up with old episodes of the show on YouTube before sending her application in.
Meet Halle…
What made you apply to be a Big Brother housemate?
Just the whole experience. I feel like Big Brother is the biggest social experiment and I want to be a part of it. It's about getting my face out there and just having fun, enjoying life. I'm only 18 so I didn't grow up watching it but as I got older, I would watch clips on YouTube and stuff, so I've been a fan. And yeah, just for fun, really?
What part of the experience are you most looking forward to?
The tasks and all the different personalities. I can imagine it's all extroverted people and big personalities. Just the whole experience.
How would your friends and family describe you?
I'm a bit of a diva and I speak my mind but I'm also a very lovely person. I'm a girl's girl, for sure. I'm honest, fun and, yeah, just brilliant.
Tell us an interesting fact about yourself…
I once accidentally swallowed magnets and I was in the news because I had to get them surgically removed and everything!
What are you most likely to get nominated for?
Being lazy and having an opinion. I'm quite opinionated, I like speaking my mind and not many people like that. I'm quite real.
What would you do with the prize money if you won?
I’d give my mum a couple of grand just to say thank you for everything she’s done for me and to give her her flowers.
Who would be your dream celebrity to live with?
Alison Hammond. She is just so hilarious, I love her.
