ANTIQUES prodigy turned wannabe reality star Lauren Harries is fighting for a place on next year's Celebrity Big Brother – because she wants to take transsexuals into the mainstream.

Harries, who underwent a sex change op about a decade ago, has received support from tens of thousands of people on a Facebook campaign to get her on the show, to be broadcast early next year.

Get Behind Lauren 2012 already has more than 31,000 likes and features such stars as model Jodie Marsh, ex-footballer Neil Ruddock and former X Factor star Chico holding badges declaring "I'm Getting Behind Lauren".
