‘His mask is slipping’ say Celebrity Big Brother fans as they slam housemate for ‘playing up to the cameras’
Celebrity Big Brother fans have slammed one of the star housemates for ‘playing up to the cameras’.
One of the fan favourites inside the infamous ITV house is facing fresh backlash from viewers after last night’s dramatic instalment.
Former This Morning star Fern Britton was injured after she collided with Strictly Come Dancing professional Nikita Kuzmin.
She was forced to take time out after she hit the back of her head against the ottoman seat in the bedroom whilst the housemates played a balloon popping game.
Nikita escorted the TV presenter to a darkened Diary Room as she was forced to have a lie down on the enlarged chair to properly recover.
He also only squashed his beef with the media personality after a conversation with Colson Smith and David Potts in the garden.
Celebrity Big Brother fans have previously praised the star for his exuberant personality in the house, but it seems they are starting to think differently.
One fan started a thread on social media site Reddit called ‘Unpopular Opinion : Nikita’s Mask is SLIPPING’.
They wrote: “I’m sorry but I don’t buy the nice guy act that Nikita puts on at all.. he tries to put on the guise of perfection… but it’s not real.
“I feel like I haven’t gotten to know him… I wish he just drops the mask and show us a real personality.”
Other fans have started to see it as they also took to the social media site with their notes.
One fan wrote: “Everything Nikita does is such a performance. Fern can see right through it.”
A second viewer noted: “I have to say I was already uncomfortable with the way he threw Marisha to the side, let alone Fern’s thwack.
They continued: “Saying the seat is soft is a cop out. She’s not 100, but at any point past 50 any sort of fall is going to take its toll. :)”
As a third stated: “Interesting to hear when Louis commented on Fern and Nikita both playing the game; he mentioned Nikita following the cameras, and playing to them.”
The social media user added: “I must admit I have felt he’s always been hyper aware of the cameras. Maybe the mask is starting to slip!”
