KIRSTIE Alley has been accused of being drunk by Celebrity Big Brother fans as she entered the house.
The Cheers actress entered the house excited about being on the Channel 5 reality show but her erratic behaviour saw her ask if she was going to be assassinated when she was made the secret President of the house and fans wondered what was wrong.
Some decided Kirstie was drunk, despite the contestants not having access to excess alcohol before they enter the house.
One wrote: “Kirstie is already so drunk… #CBB”
A second added: “Is Kirstie already drunk? #cbb”
Another asked: “Has Kirstie been drinking? #CBB”
A fourth added: “Is Kirsty drunk or on something ahahaha I’m screaming #cbb”
Tonight’s live launch will see 12 big name stars enter the completely refurbished house.
Bosses chose a Love Island themed décor for the pad, complete a luxurious hot tub, pool and funky bar.
This series has been the most costly ever – with the big name stars commanding fees that total £2.3million.
Former Emmerdale actress Roxanne signed a deal worth £750,000 along with Stormy who signed on the dotted line for the same figure.
The series will last for a total of three weeks, with Emma Willis hosting the show tonight and throughout the live evictions.
Rylan Clark-Neal is back hosting Big Brother’s Bit On The Side which will air straight after the main show ends.
The future of the hit show remains in doubt as bosses try and work out whether to continue the pricey franchise or end on a high note.
