Celebrity Big Brother fans were left disgusted over ‘creepy’ comments Chris Hughes made towards JoJo Siwa during Thursday’s show.

The former Love Island star, 32, and the singer, 21, have got plenty of tongues wagging thanks to their super close relationship, with fans previously left baffled after he called her his ‘girlfriend’.

However, the latest episode infuriated viewers after Chris remarked that he was ‘turned on’ by JoJo as the housemates played a memory game.

To pass the time during nominations, the housemates played a game of ‘I went to the market’ where they had to take turns to remember a list grocery items, with each person adding to the list.

After JoJo managed to recall a very long list of items, Chris turned to her and told her: ‘That was impressive, a big turn on that’.

As JoJo, who identifies as gay, misheard and asked him to repeat his comment, he once again told her that her memory skills were ‘a turn on’.

Watching the scene unfold, viewers were quick to take to X to express their discomfort over Chris’ words, with many finding the moment ‘creepy’.

They penned: ‘Did Chris just say Jojo remembering the list in the game they’re playing is a big turn on?’

‘Chris is being too much now’, ‘nah chris is so weird with jojo on my lorddddddd.’

‘Is anyone else starting to get annoyed by Chris in the #CBB house. He is so barking up the wrong tree but doesn’t stop and he’s just annoying full stop.’

‘Ffs man Chris… feel like that just gave Jojo the ick. “Big turn on that”‘

‘Why is Chris slowing becoming the creepy uncle?’

‘Chris is a 32 year old man constantly making creepy and flirty comments towards a 21 year old woman, who has made it clear she is a lesbian and in a happy relationship.’

It comes after fans shared the same complaint after Chris called JoJo ‘his girlfriend.’

In Wednesday’s episode, Chris offered candid insight into his close bond with JoJo, admitting that she has become ‘his person’ in the house.

Chris said: ‘If she left the house ever and I’d be stuck in here that would genuinely be crushed.

‘I guess she’s like my person in here. When you walk into a party you don’t know anyone, there’s someone you want to see in the room that makes you want to feel at ease.

‘It makes me feel happy it makes me feel comfortable and it allows me to be me, it really brings out me, I like me, I like being me and I’ll always be me and it takes someone to get you. We’re like two peas in a pod.’

Later in the episode, Chris then appeared to call JoJo ‘his girlfriend, while attempting to explain why he chose Jack P Shepherd to enjoy a Chinese takeaway with him.

JoJo immediately stated that she wasn’t Chris’ girlfriend, but said she’d remember that he opted against sharing his prize with her.

Viewers were quick to vent their frustrations over seeing an episode dominated by JoJo and Chris’ close bond.

Others claimed that Chris was clearly ‘in love’ with JoJo, with posts including: ‘Chris being in love with JoJo Siwa was not on my bingo card…

‘Swear to God if this episode is nothing but Chris and JoJo’s freaky relationship AGAIN;

‘I can’t cope with Chris and JoJo anymore; It’s doing my head in now with this Chris and JoJo weirdness… he fancies her but he knows she is with someone etc etc etc

‘Does Chris know he’s in love with her; So why’s Chris Hughes actually in love with JoJo Siwa then?’

Meanwhile, the pair’s ever-growing closeness has led to question marks over her relationship with her partner Kath Ebbs, who she has been dating since last year.

New videos of Chris and JoJo, who came out as pans3xual in 2021 but recently described herself as gay in an interview, will do nothing to quieten talk about their intimate relationship, with viewers hooked over their close-knit bond.

Celebrity Big Brother: Chris Hughes calls JoJo Siwa ‘his person’

Clips that weren’t aired during the main show, saw Chris and JoJo in bed together with the reality star lying on her chest before they pulled the duvet over their heads.

Another surprising video showed them dancing together in the garden, with Chris momentarily distracted by ‘how good’ JoJo looked.

While the former Dance Moms star was trying to teach Chris a routine, he lost himself and was caught staring at his co-star JoJo in an intense moment.

As she attempted to continue the routine, Chris said: ‘God you look great today. I think that’s my favourite colour on you.’

JoJo replied saying thank you and Chris added: ‘It suits you.’

While Kath – who is non-binary and uses she/they pronouns – has been publicly supporting JoJo during her time on the show, they have gone quiet in recent days.

The Australian content creator, 27, spoke out in defence of the American singer after she suffered a h0m0ph0bic attack from axed housemate Mickey Rourke.

Using her TikTok platform to weigh in on the controversy, Kath said that Mickey’s behaviour was ‘beyond disgusting’ and described JoJo as ‘the love of her life’.

However, Kath has not posted on her social media platforms for the past five days, notably in which time JoJo and Chris’ relationship has blossomed.

Kath has also been forced to now turn off the comments on her page after she was trolled by viewers over JoJo and Chris’ bond.

JoJo has raised eyebrows in recent days after growing close to Chris with the pair cuddling and stroking each other in bed at night. Fans watching on live stream also spotted her sleeping on the floor next to his bed.
