Alexandra
Call me cynical but Alexandra being evicted after being put up for the public vote sounds like an inside scam to me. I can imagine the producers laying Alexandra on Betfair then chucking her out and sitting back with a nice healthy bank balance. Luckily I had not placed any bets so far this week but could quite of eaily have done on what Bang correctly described as a sure thing. It looks like this week’s eviction has been cancelled and its a quite weekend for us all.

I think you are being a cynic. I don’t think its good for BB9 to have a contestant threaten the others. Pow, pow, pow… I know where you live Ste.
Alexandra allegedly made the comment about gangsters while speaking to albino contestant Darnell, while a number of other housemates were in proximity.
According to Channel 4’s transcript, while discussing the fact that she had been nominated, Alexandra told Darnell: “I’m not throwing water at anyone. It’s bigger than that…personal offence is never forgotten, do you know what I mean?
“We are just inside the house. I’ve got a very, very, very, very, very strong team outside the house”.
She added: “I just can’t wait to see my mans and them and see what their plans are, who they got…I’m not talking about those mans, I’m talking about my gangster friends. They got some instructions to follow out.”
She added later: “I get to go out, see everyone’s friends, I get to see their family. I get to do the s*** that I wanna do. Pow, pow, pow.”
Angela Jain, Head of E4 and Big Brother at Channel 4, said: “Alex’s comments will be widely interpreted as having been intended to intimidate. Other housemates have said they found her comments to be threatening and we believe that is the reasonable conclusion for them to have reached given the way Alex has behaved previously.”
