Frankie Cocozza Celebrates Birthday In CBB House

However, Big Brother had a surprise in store for the birthday boy...

Shamed X Factor star Frankie Cocozza has celebrated his 19th birthday in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

The wannabe rocker was given a monster-sized sponge birthday cake by BB - however, as part of the current Minute To Get In It task, there was a big surprise in store for Frankie.

Cocozza was made to dress up as a giant candle and balance on the cake until Big Brother gave him permission to step down.

After completing his b'day challenge, Frankie and new BFF Kirk Norcross stuffed their heads into the huge cake, then divided up the treat for their fellow celebrity housemates.

Ex-Eastenders actress Natalie Cassidy then gave Cocozza a new lemon to play with as a birthday gift, with Frankie exclaiming: "That's got sex written all over it."

In other CBB news, The Only Way Is Essex hunk Kirk was forced to spend time in a boat with the two housemates he nominated - Playboy duo the Shannon twins and on/off love interest Georgia Salpa.

Norcross told Karissa and Kristina that he had selected them for eviction as he "doesn't like awkward silences", while admitting to Salpa he felt they had drifted apart.

The Shannon twins refused to accept his reason, stating they believed he had nominated them because "they don't flirt with him", adding: "You just talk about your c**k all the time."

Clearly insulted by their comments, Kirk disagreed and replied: "No offence, you're not my type."

Georgia joined the twins in slamming the 23-year old, criticising him for his perceived "lack of sensitivity."

Kirk and Salpa - who faces eviction from the CBB house tonight (18th January) - appeared to kiss and make up on Monday, after sharing a smooch when handcuffed together as part of the task.
