Kelly Osbourne shares why she'd nominate Ekin-Su as next CBB twist announced
Kelly Osbourne has teased that she would nominate Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu on Celebrity Big Brother (CBB) following news of another "twist" ahead of the next eviction this week.
The latest episode of the ITV show saw housemate Lauren Simon, 48, and 'lodger' Sharon Osbourne, 71, leave the Big Brother house. The pair later appeared on its companion show Late & Live, alongside the latter's daughter Kelly, 39.
AJ Odudu, 36, and Will Best, 39, interviewed the evicted celebrities before revealing that there is a "twist" with the next nominations. It comes after Sharon previously got to replace a nominated housemate with someone else for Tuesday night's eviction and earlier in the series she got to choose the first person to be up for eviction on CBB.
Announcing the next "twist," presenter Will said on the most recent episode of spin-off Late & Live: "We can reveal that the housemates are gonna be nominating again tomorrow." He continued: "Straight back at it and there's a twist."
AJ added: "There absolutely is [a twist]. It's face to face nominations. Not only that but they will be taking place in the kissing booth." It was suggested that housemates will give the "kiss of death" to their choice for nomination.

Kelly responded: "I would kiss Ekin-Su." She then added: "Because I think she's very smart and she's playing a very good game. And I would want ... that would be my biggest competition so I would [want her out] if I was in the house."
It was also announced on Tuesday night that there will be a double eviction on Friday. AJ and Will asked the panel for their thoughts on the upcoming departure. Asked who she thinks will be leaving later this week, Sharon said "probably" Fern Britton but didn't provide a second prediction.
Fern is among the remaining housemates on the show, following the departure of Lauren and first evictee Gary Goldsmith. Sharon's pal Louis Walsh, Dragons' Den star Levi Roots and Strictly Come Dancing's Nikita Kuzmin are also still in the Big Brother house alongside Ekin-Su.
West End star Marisha Wallace and Coronation Street's Colson Smith are also still housemates. They are joined in the line-up on the ITV show by reality TV star David Potts, content creator Zeze Millz and actor Bradley Riches.
Celebrity Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on ITV and ITVX. Each episode is followed by companion show Late & Live on ITV2. Previous episodes of both shows are available on the streaming platform.
