Day 2: Lauren, Sophie and Louie make themselves at home

9 hours ago

We all know they have been watching the House from The Cult of Celebrity but our resident housemates were non the wiser when Lauren, Sophie and Louie re-entered tonight.

In the last hour the threesome have been doing a good job of keeping up the pretence while making sure their feet are firmly under the table.

Louie has been spinning Carol one heck of a line to explain why he didn't enter the House last night. He is claiming Big Brother created the twist just for him because he was on holiday and says he is gutted he didn't get to strut his stuff on the catwalk last night. She's totally bought it.

Courtney and Lauren have been getting along fabulously. They've been chatting away about romance and diamonds like a couple of besties. The American teen has been filling her in on all her husband history and Lauren is behaving like it is the first time she's heard it. Nice work.

Sophie has already asked Courtney if she can share her bed tonight – talk about making yourself at home.

The lack of beds is causing a bit of strife. Ron has told Louie he can't share his bed. If he knew our twinkle-toed housemate had put him in the frame, he probably wouldn't have him in the bedroom full stop.

With so many twists this evening we sure don't see things continuing to go so smoothly. Watch this space.

Day 2 round-up: Louie, Lauren and Sophie join the gang

31 mins ago

Before we get into Day 2, let's give you a quick recap of what happened in the wee hours of Day 1. The Cult of Celebrity members, Sophie, Louie and Lauren were given a difficult decision to pick three housemates as contenders for the first eviction. After much deliberation, this fell upon Ron, Courtney and Carol, who would later face the final judgment on the eve of Day 2– but before we get into that, let's start with Friday morning.

The celebrity housemates awoke in a chipper mood after their first slumber party in the Elstree bungalow. We witnessed a bit of housemate bonding, followed by an extremely rigorous session from a limber Lauren Harries. Ron recounted tales of yester year, including a time he nearly, very nearly, met Sinatra and Courtney was introduced to Weetabix. What larks!

And the frivolities continued into the afternoon, with Dustin and Abz laying down some sick beatz, Bruce getting his tootsies tanned by Irish housewife Danielle and Charlotte found an ingenious solution to her missing photo problem - painting the wall of course! But when she wasn't damaging BB property or asking what you use curry powder for, Charlotte was questioning the motives of some of her fellow housemates. It certainly hasn't taken long for the doubt to creep in...

 

But the big news of the night came when Louie, Sophie and Lauren entered the House... again! As the housemates welcomed the new trio and Louie's bottle of champers, little did they know that this gift symbolised the 'Cult of Celebrity's kiss of death, which saw Ron put up for eviction this week. The general reaction was one of shock, with Charlotte acting as you would expect after hearing such news – by punching a cake.

With all 13 celebrities now in the House, it's time to see how this group is going to work over the next couple of weeks. With such big characters, we have a feeling it's going to be an rollercoaster ride, so strap in folks!

Day 3: Hair we go

1 hour ago

The housemates had a nice lie in this morning, snoring away (and sleep-singing, if you’re Bruce) away until 10am. Since then, the bleary eyed souls have spent the first hours of their first weekend grooming themselves, focusing mainly on perfecting their mops.

Charlotte showed her potential as a hair stylist by taking on Lauren as her client. And just look at the results. She transformed her into a 1950s glam Queen. The perfect look for breakfast time. The Geordie lass herself opted for a simple hair clip, before jumping in the bath for a good scrub down.

If you flick through the gallery above you’ll see Louie getting ready to shampoo his six feeble follicles (that’s our estimate),Ron’s classic comb over and Vicky’s beaut bob. Elsewhere, Sophie is nailing the towel turban, Danielle’s pony tail is getting sweaty and Abz is hiding behind his hood.

Courtney, on the other hand, has got a masterpiece of a mane in the work. Hairy business, this CBB house.

 

Charlotte's done a stellar job

 

 

Sophie suits the towel turban

 

 

Bath time for Charlotte

Why doesn't Abz want us to see his hair?

Tonight on Celebrity Big Brother's Bit On The Psych: Saturday 24th August

25 mins ago
 

It’s Saturday, and that can only mean one thing... Bit On The Side becomes Bit On The Psych!

 

We’ve only had three days to get to know our celeb inhabitants, but it’s already time to delve into their craniums and give them our all-searching psychological analysis.

So who’s joining AJ and Iain tonight to put the housemates under the microscope?

We’ve got body language expert Judi James coming in to take a good look, along with resident psych Dr Funke and agony aunt Dr Pam Spurr.

Gosh, that’s a lot of clever people in the same room.

 

Stick with Channel 5 after the main show to join in the grilling at 11pm

Day 3: Guess what? It's task o'clock!

 

20 mins ago

It’s finally time for the full House to take part in their first mini task together (ssh, don’t tell them what Louie, Lauren and Sophie have been up to). And it’s something you have played a very important part in.

 

Today the housemates are going to get to know each other a bit better in a gruelling game called ‘Guess What?’

 

Each celeb has three interesting stories to their name, and for the past day the public have been deciding which one is the most interesting. Big Brother will challenge the housemates to guess which of their famous friends’ facts the viewers found most fascinating. The more they guess correctly, the better their prize will be.

 

It is really as simple as that. Stick with us for the results!

Day 3: Guess What? It's results time!

30 mins ago

Earlier today, the housemates got to know each other a little better through a task that we called 'Guess What'. The premise was simple – the housemates were provided with a series of stories that have been written about them in the press and they had to explain the background to it. They also had to choose which of their stories was voted the 'most interesting' by viewers on the Big Brother website (that's us – wahey!).

Sounds easy, right?

That it may have been, but this is Big Brother we are talking about, so let's just say that some of the stories were a little on the scandalous side. We learnt that Abz once burnt down a hotel room in Dublin, Charlotte's favourite party trick is balancing noodles from each nipple and Sophie was once arrested for causing a disturbance at a train station. Oh and not to mention that Dustin's sex tape is called 'Screehed – save by the smell'. Yes, you did just read that right. 

For being so forthright with their checkered pasts and successfully picking nine out of the 13 stories as the most popular, the housemates have won a takeaway dinner this evening.

What's a few little secrets in return for some grub, eh?!

Day 3: There's no place like home

2 hours ago

"It's beginning to feel like home," announced Sophie and her fellow housemates agreed, particularly Lauren who went one better adding, "I am home!"

With our baker's dozen making a full House, they sure do seem to be settling in well, and in true Celebrity Big Brother fashion, have formed some unlikely friendships.

Charlotte made a beeline for Big Ron. She told Big Brother he, "reminds us of Father Christmas," and was so devastated after his nomination that she smashed a cake to pieces. She's also getting on with Carol a treat and they have already made plans to meet up after the show (let's see if they're still on each other's Christmas card list by week 2).

Carol is proving popular with her housemates and lothario Mario admitted to big Brother that he found her attractive. She enjoyed a good bitching session with Louie last night but something tells us these two could say too much if they aren't careful.

Lauren and Courtney have bonded over hair and make-up and their almost matching night wear. Lauren has been giving the young wife tips and hints and Courtney has been impressed with the Welsh one's encyclopedic knowledge of pretty much everything.

Vicky and Les might be suffering from coming into the House together and haven't really made any particular alliences, although Danielle by default may be starting to pair up with Vic or even Sophie.

Dustin and Abz enjoyed a hot tub together earlier and showed bromance potential.

It's early days and we know how things can change. An alpha male and female are bound to emerge soon and we all know how that can shake up a happy House.

Ask AJ: The BBBOTS host answers our questions

4 hours ago

BBBOTS host AJ came for a natter with the Digital Team earlier on to tell us her thoughts on our star-studded House. She discussed Abz's monk-like features, Courtney's bosom and her fascination with Lauren, amongst other things. And she even gave us a little sing-song! Have a peek below...

What do you make of the new housemates?

I love them, absolutely love them.

I love Abz. I was a fan of 5ive back in the day, so I’ve got posters of him and stuff. And with his new shaved head he’s looking like a monk, which is just a funny vision for me every single day.

I hope Courtney stays in past this week, because I think she’s going to be a really entertaining housemate. She’s charismatic, she’s got those two big footballs on her chest, she’s got a weave... she’s brilliant!

And Lauren, there’s something about her that is so mesmerising and so interesting to watch.

So is Lauren the one you’re looking forward to watching most then?

Yes, definitely Lauren. There’s something about her. I can’t take my eyes off her. Lauren’s the sort of person who, if she was stood next to Courtney, then I’ll look at Lauren. And that’s saying something because Courtney is like a blonde bombshell with two massive...

We'll stop you there. Do you think they chose the right trio to join the Cult of Celebrity?

Personally, I’d have liked to have seen Danielle in the Cult of Celebrity. Just because I am not that familiar with her and I thought that would have been a great way to introduce her to our audience. There’s massive characters in the House and we’ve not seen that much of her yet, so it would have great to have her separated from the rest of them at the beginning so I could find out all about her.

Otherwise, I really liked Louie and Lauren. So I would have swapped Sophie and Danielle.

They’ve already nominated Ron for eviction, but who do you think they’ll add to their hit-list?

 

To be honest it’s interesting, because after the first night it was all just shallow reasons like ‘Oh, Ron’s into football... Oh, Courtney is too high pitched’. So it would be interesting to see who they would pick now that they’re integrated.

I don’t know who they’re going to pick. Because even since they’ve been back in the House they’ve still been the same threesome.

Finally, seeing as you’re such big fan, what’s your favourite 5ive song?

[sings] “If you’re getting down baby, I want it now baby”

That was so good. And ‘Everybody Get Up’. [sings again] “Everybody get up, singing, 1 2 3 4”

That was a beautiful rendition. What a way to end the interview. Thanks AJ!
