Vicky Pattison has tipped her best friend Alex Cannon to win ‘Big Brother’.
The 28-year-old reality TV star declared her ‘Judge Geordie’ co-star would easily win the Channel 5 show before all of the housemates had even been introduced on Tuesday’s (07.06.16) show.
After Alex entered the house, Vicky tweeted: "Here he is…. The winner of #bbuk…. My best friend, ultimate stud and one of the kindest and most incredible lad I know! @alexcannon247
"The winner already man… Proper brilliant geezer (sic)."
Along with showing her support for Alex, Vicky took to Twitter to slam his fellow contestants.
She wrote: "Why are all these birds narcissist imbeciles?!! And as for Evelyn being ‘wild’ and ‘reckless’.. You look dead behind the eyes pet! #nonevent (sic)."
Meanwhile, Alex and his fellow housemates are set for an unpleasant surprise as show bosses have introduced a twist to this year’s programme.
A second ‘Big Brother’ house has been built to accommodate ‘The Others’, a group who have history with some of the housemates.
Explaining the set up to ‘The Others’, Big Brother said: "You are a single anonymous force and will remain in uniform at all times. The housemates don’t know you exist and to succeed you must remain undetected.
"You are on a mission to target and take down housemates and steal a place for yourselves in the ‘Big Brother’ house."
Host Emma Willis explained the relationship between the contestants and ‘The Others’, saying: "Some of them actually hate each other.
"Together ‘The Others’ must target the housemates and steal their place in the ‘Big Brother’ house."
And Vicky weighed in on the twist, tweeting: "The ‘others’ are the biggest bunch of d***holes I have ever seen or heard in my life… And I have done a lot of reality tv.. #prayforcannon
"This twist is brilliant…. And @alexcannon247 is going to HATE these prize helmets but I guarantee he’ll deal with it like a gentleman!! (sic)."
Meanwhile, other well-known contestants include chef Marco Pierre White’s model son, Marco Pierre White Jr and Lateysha Grace, former star of MTV’s ‘The Valleys’.
BBC reporter Andy West, who quit the corporation after its refusal to remove boxer Tyson Fury from the Sports Personality of the Year shortlist last year and model Laura Carter, who has claimed to have had a threesome with Justin Bieber also made their way into the house.
