Seven remain in Celeb Big Brother house after Cami Li eviction

Calum Best, Keith Chegwin, Perez Hilton, Katie Hopkins, Michelle Visage, Kavana and Katie Price will compete to be named the winner of Celebrity Big Brother 2015.

Voting for the winner of this year's series has opened and the public will choose from the seven after model Cami Li became the fifth housemate to be evicted.

She learned she was facing eviction alongside Katie Price, Keith Chegwin and Perez Hilton earlier in the show, but the contestants were not expecting anyone to leave on Monday night. They were shocked when host Emma Willis entered the house to announce the eviction.

After learning she had polled the lowest number of votes from viewers, Li - real name Camilia Figueras - said: "It's bittersweet in the sense that I can get out and call my mum. I would have loved to make the final because the first 10 days were hell. It's so hard to be in that house."

She launched a blistering attack on Hilton, who has clashed with fellow housemates.

She said: "I did say in an interview that I'm going to really love him or really hate him. Obviously I f****** hated him."

Each of the four stars who were nominated were invited to explain to viewers why they should remain in the house earlier.

Li said: "I've been here since the beginning, I've been true to myself."

Price apologised for being 'boring', but added: "If you keep me in I will be the same boring. It would be nice to stay in because for once in my life I would have achieved something."

Chegwin said he had enjoyed his time on the show and had been 'honest - probably too honest'.

Finally celebrity blogger Perez Hilton launched into a foul-mouthed rant, saying viewers would 'do whatever the f***" they want', adding: "I would be thrilled to go home. Let the people who really want to stay, stay."

The final eviction will be announced on Wednesday and viewers are now voting for the winner of the series, who will be crowned on Friday.
