Kavana – or Anthony Kavanagh – was best known in the mid to late 90s as a popstar. He was signed to Virgin Records, and became friends with his then-labelmates the Spice Girls after going on tour with them.
After two singles in 1996, he released his biggest smash, ‘I Can Make You Feel Good’, which reached number eight in the chart. Follow-up ‘MFEO’ also made the top ten, but after his albums and future singles only achieved moderate success, he was dropped by his label.
In 2007, after a recurring role in Hollyoaks: In The City the previous year, he took part in Simon Cowell musical talent show Grease Is The Word – and was eventually voted one of the runners-up.
He went on to audition for BBC One’s The Voice UK in 2013 – but he was turned down at the Blind Auditions round by coaches Will.i.am, Tom Jones, Jessie J and Danny O’Donoghue.
Last year, Kavana was a participant on ITV2’s The Big Reunion, forming supergroup 5th Story with Gareth Gates, Adam Rickitt, and former Celebrity Big Brother contestants Kenzie and Dane Bowers. They went on an arena tour with fellow boybands Five, 911, Blue, A1, 3T and Damage in October. During his time on The Big Reunion, he came out as gay.
The 37-year-old has now signed up for CBB himself, as “it’s January and I wasn’t doing anything”. He says it’ll be different to his previous reality TV endeavours as “you’ve got to be mindful of what you’re doing – even little habits, like if you pick your nose, you can’t be like that 24 hours a day”.
Kavana’s ideal housemate would be his “good pal”, actress Suranne Jones, as “we always have a good laugh” – but he dreads not being able to sleep in the house, saying: “I’m quite a light sleeper and it worries me that with all those other people in one room there will be snoring!”
Thought is was pretty ironic how he spoke about Keith in the diary room saying he’s basically a nobody. Not being funny I had to research who the hell kavana was. Hes a frumpy boring tool!!! What does he add to the house?? Nada…..
Is there a point to this bloke,!!
His experience in the house is….
Does nothing,
Gets drunk,
Picks on someone for absolutely no reason at all,
Apologises,
Does nothing,
Crawls back under his rock,…….
Now hes had a drink the aggression has returned.
Get back in your bed.
Which researcher decided this talentless nobody should go in the house? Whoever it was needs sacking.
Maybe bb had a tenna left from their budget and realised this no one was doing appearances for £9.99. Personally i would rather had bought a bucket of kfc
hes coming out of his shell now…just give him some air time and we will see he actually alright.
Nasty vile little man……. Who has no idea which “side” to be on because he hasn’t personality of his own!!!!!
he does not have the strength to be himself and is afraid not to be on the popular side – is he 15 again? I really hate him when he is drunk – is this his real side that he hides during the day and he need for a drink is worrying
He’s pretending to be gay becos it’s coming to the end of the show..he mates told him to do that to win the game!
I think its definitely goodbye Kavana on Wednesday.
Kav and Kal, the 2 drones, need to go.
@confused
Yep, a right pair of jellyfish.
😉 I’ve not been a particular fan of Kavana, yet I imagine it would be a good laugh going on a night out with him, especially after numerous vodkas. 😉
@Wexford
But he’s not a good laugh after numerous vodkas, just the opposite in fact, have you been watching a different show!
Who is this fool :down:
How you spoke to Keith was disgusting. Completely disappointing
