"Big Brother" Series 5: Nadia Almada, 2004

Portugese-born Almada was the first transgender contestant to appear on the show. Loved for her open, honest conversations, she won the series with over 70 percent of the final public vote. After leaving the show, she went on to record a song, "A Little Bit of Action", which charted at number 27 in December 2004. With a few TV appearances on "Hollyoaks" and "Come Dine With Me", she appeared on "Ultimate Big Brother" but was evicted on day eight.
