Jonty Rhodes, Shakira to share a house

Johannesburg - Jonty Rhodes will soon be moving into a house with boxer MikeTyson and singer Shakira to take part in an Indian reality show similar to Big Brother.

Bigg Boss is a reality show that follows the same format as Big Brother.

Celebrities from all over the world remain isolated in a house for three months and their only communication is with the mysterious Bigg Boss.

Rhodes will join the fifth season, which starts on Sunday October 2 on the TV channel Colors in India, Hindustan Times reported.

Rhodes said he can't talk about it yet, because his participation has not been confirmed.

"If Tyson and Shakira are in the house, it will be interesting to hear their impressions of India. I do not think any of them have spent nearly as much time as I have in this wonderful country. I will rather address Tyson as mister if I have to share a house with him, it's much safer," Rhodes told Hindustan Times.

Rhodes reportedly also expressed his hope to meet Poonam Pandey (20). Pandey became famous when she undertook to get rid of all her clothes if the Indian cricket team won the World Cup earlier this year. She did not keep her word.
