Celebrity Big Brother lost yet another housemate tonight (January 23).

Yesterday's show saw the backdoor eviction of John Barnes and the announcement that someone else would soon be leaving the house.

John reflected on his time in the house, but Emma Willis warned that he was about to be joined by another of his former friends.

There were five famous faces facing the chop tonight, with two of the unlucky few already confirmed as Ginuwine and Wayne Sleep.

The episode revealed that the three other potential ex-housemates were Jonny Mitchell, Ann Widdecombe and Daniel O'Reilly.

But in another live eviction, it was Ginuwine who was sent packing and given just moments to say his goodbyes.

Departing the house, his words to Ashley were "don't cry".

The 'Pony' star reflected in particular on his relationship with Ashley, obviously saying he would miss her the most.

"She's a beautiful young lady... we really clicked. When we first had a really long talk on the couch, I think we talked for like four hours, I haven't done that for a long time."

Remaining coy on their future, he said: "I'm definitely going to talk to her when she gets out."

Asked about the coining of the phrase Ashuwine, he said: "I prefer my name to be first though."

He thanked Emma Willis and his fans for the experience.

"I had a wonderful time, it was something that I never expected, to even get this far. So, thank you guys."

But he also expected his departure, saying: "I'm going up against the hometown, so I kinda expected it. No love lost though."

He also revealed that there is no bad blood between the contestants (despite the slew of nominations against him).

"Everyone likes each other, and with no bad stuff with Big Brother, but we had to find reasons, you know, even myself."
