PinkNews Exclusive
Channel 5 has confirmed that, despite calling for “poofs” to be shot on Twitter, a Big Brother contestant will not be removed fromĀ the house.
Danielle McMahon, who entered the Big Brother house last week, works as an underwear model and had featured topless in Nuts magazine.Ā She said in an interview with the Daily Star that due to her Catholic beliefs, she thinks same-sex marriage is ājust not rightā.
PinkNews revealed earlier today that in comments apparently made by McMahon on Twitter last year, sheĀ called gay people āpoofsā and āfreaksā, suggested that they are not actually men, telling them toĀ āman upā.
In one tweet she called for a gay person to be shot for using the word “lush”, saying: āJust seen a supposed guy use the word lushā¦. Shoot him, shoot him now How utterly cringe and vileĀ #manupĀ #poof.ā
Channel 5 declined to comment, but saidĀ that producers would not be removing McMahon from the house.
McMahonĀ is up for eviction this week, along with Tamara Stewart-Wood and Jale Karaturp.
Despite working as a topless model, McMahon got annoyed when other housemates were discussing porn in the garden this week.
Fellow housemate, Playboy bunny Kimberly Kisselovich, got into a debate with McMahon this week, as the two clashed over the formerās acceptance of gay people.
