'Big Brother' star kicks off

'Big Brother' winner Anthony Hutton will star in football reality show 'The Match'.

The Geordie dancer, who is a huge Newcastle United fan, has won a place on the celebrity team, which will compete against a squad of soccer legends, including Paul Gascoigne, Chris Waddle and Peter Beardsley.

He will train alongside a host of other stars, including 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here' winner Phil Tufnell, 'Dream Team' star Jim Alexander and 'Coronation Street' actor Tom Craig.

'The Match', which starts on Sky One on Sunday, is Anthony's first job since leaving the 'Big Brother' house.

He was last seen being carried home after binge-drinking himself into a stupor at the end of series party.

The handsome 24-year-old passed out during the lavish bash, in London's Kew Gardens, after downing countless bottles of his favourite tipple, Newcastle Brown Ale.

Before he was carried out by his taxi driver and a mystery blonde, Anthony spent the evening canoodling with a pretty producer who works for 'Big Brother' makers Endemol and even puckered up with fellow housemate Maxwell Ward.
