Scott Disick turns down six-figure offer to appear on Celebrity Big Brother because show refused to fly him and girlfriend Sofia Richie to the UK in a private jet
The 34-year-old is no stranger to appearing on reality TV but it would take a lot of money for him to do CBB
SCOTT Disick has turned down a six-figure sum to appear on Celebrity Big Brother.
The 34-year-old has been approached to do the show ten times in the past and has said no once again, after Channel 5 bosses refused to fly him and girlfriend Sofia Richie to the UK in a private jet.
A source told us: "He's turned down Celebrity Big Brother ten times, but the most recent time was when they offered him a six figure sum to go into the house.
“He turned them down - he was demanding a private jet to fly him over, and to have his entire team - including Sofia - put up in London while he was in the house. The show refused.”
Scott has become almost inseparable from Sofia, 19, in recent months and he would want more money to spend time away from her.
The source continued: “Scott sees UK reality TV shows as a smaller market - he's on Keeping Up With The Kardashians! Plus, it's a hard show to do because you're on camera 24/7.
“At the moment, it's not enough money for him and he wants to stay with Sofia, but in the future, if he needs a payday, it's an option."
Celebrity Big Brother usually takes place twice a year on Channel 5, once in January and once in the summer. It often features stars from the US and previously had another Keeping Up With The Kardashian's star - Jonathan Cheban.
Sofia, meanwhile, is currently in the UK for a beauty launch and while Scott wasn’t there in person, he was in spirit as her phone case featured his image.
The teen model was seen clutching the phone, with her tribute to Scott, as she partied with Lottie Moss in the capital.
Sofia, and dad of three Scott, were first linked back in June before going public a few months later.
Scott, who previously dated Kourtney Kardashian, is yet to find favour with Sofia’s dad Lionel though.
When quizzed about Scott dating his teenage daughter, Lionel responded: “Have I been in shock?! I'm the dad, come on.”
