Even though Chloe Ferry has been evicted from the Celebrity Big Brother house, Geordie Shore pal Sophie Kasaei has spoken up to defend her sometimescontroversial behaviour during the show.

Having taken abit of flack from viewers and housemates alike(er, we're looking at you, Coleen Nolan and Kim Woodburn), Sophie reckons the reaction to her behaviour comes down to the massive differences between the Geordie Shore and CBB audience.

In an interview given prior to Chloe's eviction, Sophie told Closer Magazine that her "young and daft" behaviour was being misunderstood:"When she was lapdancing and also rubbing her bum on Jedward's John Grimes you could tell she was just flirting.

She added: "It's harmless fun to her as she sees bums and fannies out in Newcastle all the time. All the housemates are professional people with talents, and she's little Chloe from Newcastle."

Explaining that despite coming off with confidence, Chloe is actually a very insecure person, Sophie continued: "She joined Geordie Shore when she was still a teenager, and she obviouslyfelt the need to look a certain way. People on social media made her insecure, but she's beautiful andjust being her usual hilarious self.

"I'm worried about Chloe - she hides her vulnerability by being silly. If she thinks someone doesn't like her, she'll try to make them laugh rather than confront them."

Still, even though Chloe has since left the house, Sophie is pretty sure Chloe will be making more moves on Calum Best when the show finishesup: "It's sweet to watch her with Calum... He's a bit old for her but whatever happens, she'll be trying to get him drunk and in his pants at the wrap party."
