Jackie Stallone's brief stay in the Big Brother house came to an abrupt end last night as she became the first celebrity to be axed from the reality TV show.

The Hollywood astrologer and mother of movie star Sylvester Stallone made a dignified exit after the vote was announced.

But racing pundit John McCririck was clearly miffed to find his stay was to be extended, holding his heads in his hands wishing he was on his way.

Jackie told John it served him right. "You should stay," she said.

The self-confessed septuagenarian said was so happy to get out, as the house was "full of morons".

But her eviction had a sweet scent of irony as she was nominated by all six housemates except McCririck.

At 22:00 GMT last night, Davina announced that after just five days in the house Jackie had garnered just 33 per cent of the vote.

To the chagrin of McCririck, 67 per cent of viewers voted to keep him in.

Jackie became the ninth celebrity in Big Brother 3 when she made a surprise entrance on the set on Monday night.

Bez is favourite to win at 7-4, with Kenzie second at 2-1 and former favourite Jeremy third at 4-1.
