‘Human Ken Doll’ Rodrigo Alves was reprimanded by Big Brother just hours after entering the house on Thursday, as he received a formal warning for his use of inappropriate language.
In an evening which saw him flirt up a storm with Ben Jardine and grill Gabby Allen on her love life, the media personality caused viewer outrage after saying ‘I prefer n***** boys.’
It was a dramatic first episode of the Channel 5 reality mainstay as Rodrigo confessed he had already taken a shine to Married At First Sight star Ben, while Chloe Ayling also opened up about her horrific kidnapping ordeal.
Shocking: Rodrigo Alves was reprimanded by Big Brother just hours after entering the house on Thursday, as he received a formal warning for his use of inappropriate language
The exchange came as Rodrigo and Bad Girls Club star Natalie Nunn were bombarding Gabby with questions about her relationship with Dan Osborne, as she proclaimed they were nothing more than friends.
As Rodrigo admitted the ex-TOWIE star was ‘nice to look at,’ Gabby said: ‘That was what the most annoying thing, we got on great as mates, my ex-boyfriend said something went on. We couldn’t really be friends after that but that was it.’
Referring to his relationship with actress Jacqueline Jossa, Dan said: ‘I am married yeah, but we separated.’
Rodrigo then left his housemates outraged by saying: ‘I prefer n**** boys!’
Unbelievable: The media personality stunned viewers as he said he ‘preferred n***** boys’ during a chat with Love Island’s Gabby Allen
Outrageous: It came as Gabby was grilled on her close friendship with Dan Osborne, as she admitted claims the pair were in a romantic relationship were false
Upsetting: As Rodrigo was reprimanded for his language, the Channel 5 show tweeted a statement saying that if he used a word again he would be removed from the house
The scene then cut to Rodrigo being spoken to by Big Brother the following day, as they gave him a formal and final warning.
Rodrigo admitted: ‘I do understand. Last night I was very excited to be here, and I had quite a lot to drink, and I was intoxicated. I was drunk. In fact I was very drunk, and today I’m very hungover, I’ve been drinking a lot of water.
‘I obviously regret that, the fact that I used the N-word. That was not necessary at all. It was just excitement, I’d had quite a lot to drink.’
Outraged: CBB viewers took to Twitter in their droves to reprimand Rodrigo’s language, with many slamming producers for not removing him the house straight away
Remember her? Other recalled the moment Emily Parr was removed from the civilian house in 2007 after her use of an n-work slur
Big Brother responded that his drunken state was ‘not an excuse,’ and later tweeted a statement which read: ‘Big Brother does not tolerate the use of highly offensive, racially charged language in the House.
‘Rodrigo has received a formal and final warning and if he uses such language again, he will be removed immediately. Rodrigo has apologised for his comments.’
It came in what proved to be a wild first night for the housemates as they got to know each other, with Rodrigo already flirting up a storm with Married At First Sight star Ben.
Sparks flying: Rodrigo was also seen getting very cosy with Ben hours after entering the house
Sweet: The Married At First Sight star planted a cheeky kiss on his new friend, as the ‘Human Ken Doll’ confessed ‘you look like an artist’
As they got cosy together in the bedroom the TV star said to Ben: ‘You look like an artist. You look like a dancer comedian, you make us laugh,’ to which he responded: ‘Love you sir!’
Rodrigo continued: ‘I’m gay but I’m not like that. If I see a beautiful girl it’s like sister, family. You’re far too young to know these sort of things.’
He then called to Ben: ‘Come here sweet boy we were just talking about you.’
Rodrigo later opened about his fancy for Ben while in the pantry with Natalie Nunn, saying to The Bad Girls Club star: ‘When I see that person when I see that body, why does he act like a clown? What is that about?’
Leading man: Ben also opened up about his experience on Married At First Sight, which saw him split from wife Stephanie
Hilarious: The animated star admitted he found the experience ‘silly’ and when he was supposed to live with Stephanie he ran off to Portugal
Earlier in the evening Ben opened up about his experience on Married At First Sight, telling psychic Sally Morgan: ‘I went into it and thought I’ll have a go.
‘Me and another couple, they split up, I had an amazing experience but it was just silly and I thought my eyes wandered, and I was in the papers and mum sees me as a love rat and a cheat.
‘She was like right we’re moving in together and I thought erm…you got into permanent accommodation for like eight weeks. I ran off to Portugal!’
Shocking: The opening episode also saw House President Kirstie Alley and her depute Ryan Thomas issue house ‘bills’ which deprived housemates of food, hot water and their suitcase
Angry: Rodrigo was furious that he would be deprived of his suitcase for one from another country
Fans also got the see the first orders of business by President Kirstie Alley and Vice President Ryan Thomas, as they were ordered to put into place a series of Bills.
First they were asked to choose one housemate to take cold showers as part of the Environment Bill, and for this they selected Ben.
Second, a housemate was chosen to consume green vegetable juices as part of the Health Bill, and this was given to Dan.
And finally Rodrigo was ordered to exchange his suitcase for one from another country as part of a Foreign Relations.
This sparked a furious clash between the surgery fan and Natalie, as he proclaimed he could not fit into her own wardrobe.
Open: Chloe Ayling didn’t waste any time in opening up to Natalie Nunn about her kidnapping ordeal, which made nationwide news last year
The raucous American beauty – who jumped into the hot tub fully clothed – has already made a bold impact on viewers, as she spoke to Chloe Ayling about her kidnap ordeal, only to immediately question her tale when in the private haven of the diary room.
Chloe said: ‘He made it out to me that it was a massive organisation, and he wanted to save me but he couldn’t, and that’s what was scaring me was there were all these people and I had to pay the money otherwise I’d die.
‘It was £300k, and I couldn’t get it. My mum and my family were trying to get the money. but this guy was always telling me that he was on my side, I just had to think what could I do to survive, so I just had to make him like me.
‘I didn’t do anything sexual no, but I had to promise him things for the future. The way he reacted to the stuff I said to him was really positive. And it turned out I thought it was this huge organisation, when it was just two people.
‘At least I know that both of the people involved are now in jail.’
Really? But once in the safe haven of the Diary Room, the Bad Girls Club star expressed views that she didn’t fully believe Chloe’s tale
While Natalie appeared sympathetic to Chloe’s story, in the Diary Room she later said: ‘I’m gonna promise you something right now, Chloe ain’t going nowhere, Chloe’s cool she vibing she having fun she’s the type of girl who will do my laundry, will you cook for me will you clean for me I don’t do those things at home.
‘Chloe’s young she claimed she got kidnapped, maybe she did maybe she didn’t.’
Meanwhile disgraced banker Nick Leeson opened up to Ben about his previous legal troubles, after serving time in prison for his involvement in the 1995 collapse of Baring’s bank.

Honest: He spoke openly about his troubles to Ben, as the housemates got to know each other in the first episode
He said: ‘I broke a bank that’s what happened. Lost a load of money. It was Japanese ones. I went to prison in Singapore for a few years. It was tough. I was trading between Japan and Singapore, I just got out of control, position went against me.
‘When you start carrying the position everyday, the element of choice was taken away, rather than doing what I was good at doing I had this position everyday, I was trying to prop up the market and it was getting bigger and bigger.
‘They didn’t find me out until right at the end. Oldest bank in England lost £862m, in 1995 so that was a bit of dollar then. I ran away from Singapore, I got back to Germany got arrested in Germany, I had my ex wife with me, after about nine months they send me back got sentenced to six and a half years, got a third off for good behaviour.
‘It was false accounting, cos I was misrepresenting profits, I was 25 at the time as well. I surrounded by people would could’ve help me but I just didn’t ask for help.’
Cheeky: Comedian Hardeep Singh Kohli also seemed to be getting along well with Ben
Naughty: The former One Show presenter could be seen caressing the shirtless hunk, as he said: ‘I thought I’d hate you, I thought I’d hate you’

The night ended with some tension of sorts as Gabby slammed Dan’s overdramatic behaviour as the housemates attempted to finally get some sleep.
As Dan complained: ‘If I don’t go to sleep I’ll be tired tomorrow,’ Gabby moaned that he should ‘shut up’ and had ‘gone too far.’
