Celebrity Big Brother: Alicia Douvall is evicted

Alicia Douvall has been evicted from Celebrity Big Brother.

The glamour model, had been up against Calum Best, Nadia Sawalha and Perez Hilton, but was voted out of the house in a live eviction on Friday night. There had been shouts of "Get Perez out" and there were boos when Alicia's exit was announced.

Alicia is only the second proper eviction, following model Chloe Goodman who was booted out on Day 10.

This latest series of Celebrity Big Brother has proved controversial from the start, with former Baywatch star, Jeremy Jackson and ex-Coronation Street star Ken Morley both removed from the house for bad behaviour during the first week. Then the following week,  American singer, Alexander O'Neal unexpectedly decided to leave the show.

"I'm gutted to be out but I've got my children at home,' said Alicia upon her exit. "I was up against some really big names."

Alicia tipped Nadia or Keith Chegwin to win this year's edition of the Channel 5 show.

When asked about her relationship with controversial celebrity blogger, Perez who has been stirring up everyone both inside and outside the Big Brother house, Alicia said: "I take the good with the bad and thought he was entertaining, but I can totally see he can be annoying."
