Celeb Big Bro: Trump, Baldwin and Sisqo face chop
Ivana Trump, Stephen Baldwin and Sisqo have all been nominated for eviction from the Celebrity Big Brother house. The trio will face the public vote after receiving the most nominations in a special 'speed-nominating' round, which took place minutes after rapper Lady Sovereign became the third celebrity to get the boot - and two will leave the house in the eviction show on Friday night. Wealthy socialite Ivana received five nominations, including one from actress Stephanie Beacham, who said: "I'm nominating Ivana because she has played her game and I think needs to be released from her misery." DJ Jonas 'Basshunter' Altberg said Ivana complained too much, and added: "She spends more time than anyone else in the bathroom and she's the weak link in doing the tasks." Singer Dane Bowers, glamour girl Nicola Tappenden and Thong Song singer Sisqo also nominated Donald Trump's ex. Born-again Christian Stephen received nominations from Nicola, Ivana, Stephanie and Dane during the speed-nominating round, which saw housemates tasked with naming the two people they wanted to get the chop within 30 seconds. Dane said of Stephen: "I feel like half of my life is spent waiting for him to finish a sentence, and it really drags on." Singer Sisqo was nominated by cage-fighter Alex Reid, footballer-turned-Hollywood star Vinnie Jones and Jonas, who said he was sick of the musician 'showing off'. "He just keeps talking about all of his achievements and it's boring," he said. Stephanie and Vinnie Jones were the only housemates who didn't receive any nominations.
