Who is Jasmine Waltz? Celebrity Big Brother 2017 housemate, US reality TV star and model
SHE got up close and personal with two of her housemates before embarking on a brief romance with another and spent most of her time semi-naked.
So viewers expected more headline-making antics during her appearance on the special edition of Celebrity Big Brother, which sees former contestants return to the CBB house as well as some newbies.
However, after just over a week, Jasmine left the house in a shock eviction after several melt-downs.
Jasmine took her place with her fellow All Stars on launch night, when they had to make the decision which housemate to ‘edit out’ of the show.
She was at the centre of a 'love rivalry' early in the show, when housemates Calum Best and Jamie O'Hara had a 'play fight' for her affections.
Jasmine appeared to have been enjoying the 'love triangle', kissing them and sharing a bed with them both.
Her actions didn't go unnoticed by the other housemates, and Coleen warned her that her flirting could be perceived as leading them on and may not impress the public.
Jasmine had a few run ins with Stacy Francis and also Big Brother culminating in her frying her microphone and and on-air meltdown during the Weekend From Hell task.
After leaving the show, she opened up about her past "run-ins" with Calum.
She has appeared in racy scenes in TV shows like Femme Fatales - but who is she and what is she famous for? Here’s what we know.
Tough cookie
Jasmine was born in Las Vegas, Nevada in August 1982.
She was an only child and ended up living in care homes and shelters when she was young after her father committed suicide and her mother abandoned her.
At the age of 16 she fell in with the wrong crowd and was locked up in a maximum security prison until she was 18.
In 2004 she was arrested for drug possession and was fined £372 and sentenced to two days behind bars.
Miami to Hollywood
Jasmine started modelling while living in Miami, Florida where she was studying at the University Performing Arts, working in local clubs to pay her fees.
After she graduated, Jasmine moved to Los Angeles where she attracted the interest of Hollywood producers and soon began appearing in a number of commercials and TV programmes.
She went on to appear in films such as Bad Boys II and Pledge This with Paris Hilton.
Famous romances
Jasmine is known more for her showbiz romances, the most famous being her fling with actor David Arquette.
Jasmine had an affair Arquette following his separation from Friends star Courteney Cox.
Jasmine has also been linked to presenter Ryan Seacrest and actor Chris Pine.
Celebrity spat
In 2010, Jasmine punched Lindsay in the face while the actress was out celebrating her 24th birthday.
Jasmine is a former flame of Lindsay’s friend Doug Reinhardt and Jasmine reportedly got jealous and hit her.
But she denied hitting her and described Lindsay as “delusional” and “disturbed”
Reality TV sensation
She was a relative unknown when she joined the British reality TV show and soon made a name for herself, but necessarily in a good way.
She snogged both former N-Dubz star Dappy and Apprentice star Luisa Zissman in the house’s Jacuzzi, took her clothes off a lot and annoyed a lot of the older housemates, including Lionel Blair.
She then embarked on romance with Blue star Lee Ryan, went on holiday with him and poised for a magazine shoot together, but then two months later she dumped him.
