BIG Brother bosses appeared to take a cheeky swipe at Ryan Bradshaw after he was the first contestant evicted from the 2024 series.
The 28-year-old Blackpool lad, who lives in Stockport, was given the boot after just six days on the ITV reality show.
Ryan didn’t make the best impression on the Big Brother live crowds as he was booed by fans before even entering the compound.
And after he packed up his bags, Big Brother Late and Live bosses were feeling playful as they played out the track Ego by Halsey as he walked out for a chat – taking a catty dig at his character.
Viewers had already been convinced he’d be heading home after one giveaway moment.
The marketing and events worker had caused a scene in the house with Sarah over the shopping task in an episode this week.
Reflecting on the drama away from his co-stars, Ryan claimed he was set to become a “scapegoat” in a diary room monologue.
At the time, he said: “It’s just a bit of fun innit, you know what I mean?
“As long as I don’t hurt anybody, I didn’t wanna upset anybody and I actually spoke to Sarah after to make sure she’s alright but I know people getting a bit angry but there’s a lot of mischief going on.
“It’s alright now, but we fail to shopping budget and finger’s on me. If there’s any punishment, I will say I’ll take one for the team because it was kind of me that caused it.
“But yeah, I think it’s all right now, but it’s gonna be a scapegoat, essentially that, oh, you know, if the luxury budget fails, 100 per cent I’ll be an easy target.
“So yeah, I’ve not really played it very well to be honest, have I Big Brother? Came up like a whizz-kid on day one, got blown up by a cake, stayed in a storage room, tried to do the honourable thing.
“Felt like I’d been ripped up, put for eviction, and I pissed people off today in the bloody shopping task, but you’ see how it going.”
Taking to social media, fans were left with little sympathy for Ryan.
One took to X to write: “This feels like Ryan is leading the vote so here’s a monologue to end his storyline.”
A brand new batch of Big Brother housemates are living it up in the famous compound.
Meet the cast of the 2024 series:
In his introduction VT, Ryan had described himself as a “working class northern lad” with “strong opinions”.
This quickly became clear when he made a dig at those who self-identify.
He said: “There’s a lot of woke people out there.
“It’s all well and good if you want to use certain pronouns, and I get that, but it gets a bit confusing sometimes with people identifying as a spoon or whatnot.”
Fans had also accused him of “lying about his age” during his show entry.
