From 2 January 2009, Lucy Pinder appeared in the sixth series of Celebrity Big Brother UK. She revealed that she is «a bit of a Tory bird» and that 'thick' people irritate her. She was the first housemate to be voted out, on 9 January with 57% of the public vote. Pinder declared her wish to leave the Big Brother house after being driven to distraction by the incessant rapping of another housemate.
