Shievonne Robinson has become the sixth person to be evicted from Big Brother after fellow nominee Conor McIntyre survived eviction for the second week in a row. The former Playboy bunny - who was facing her first public vote - lost out after receiving fewer votes than Conor - and promptly burst into tears upon hearing the news. And Shievonne - dressed in a red lace dress and matching hair bow - left the house to a resounding chorus of boos from the crowd, following a week which has seen her behaviour turn increasingly erratic, and which at one point saw a psychiatrist drafted in amid fears she had become suicidal. Afterwards she addmited, "I knew I was going to get boos, but I didn't know they were going to be that loud." The 29-year-old also admitted she did 'not think she would get this far' in the series. Shievonne is the third woman to be given the boot from the house following the departure of Victoria Eisermann just days after the series began, and dancer Lydia Louisa a fortnight ago. Other housemates who have been evicted so far include model Arron Lowe, doorman Chris James and teacher turned porn star Benedict Garrett. The housemates will nominate once again on Monday.
