Marisha Wallace has left the Big Brother house.
The Olivier Award-nominated West End star was the fifth contestant to be eliminated from the competition, just days before the season finale on Friday.
Other contestants this season included Sharon Osbourne, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, and more. New episodes air on ITV1 at 9:00 pm GMT.
Wallace was recently notified on the show that she was nominated for an Olivier Award for her performance as Miss Adelaide in the immersive London revival of Guys & Dolls. While she originally was not going to find out about the nomination until she left the competition, Big Brother bent the rules to let her know. Watch her reaction here.
Since there was no music allowed in the Big Brother house, Wallace branded herself as a "walking, talking musical," volunteering to be the human "jukebox" of the house. Watch her sing "And I Am Telling You" from Dreamgirls upon her entry here.
