<\/p>\nCelebrity Big Brother star Nicola McLean recalled the moment she shut down former host Emma Willis.<\/p>\n
This came during her eviction chat during the 2017 series – in which she constantly clashed with Kim Woodburn. In her post-exit chat, Emma asked: "Do you think maybe you're quite similar?"<\/p>\n
To which Nicola cried out: "Don't you dare – wash your mouth out!" Emma then added: "I mean in the respect that, you're both very vocal, you're both very opinionated and neither of you will back down."<\/p>\n

Nicola was having none of it and said: "OK, but hold on a minute, hold on a minute there. I'll tell you where we differ is because I'm not insane in my argument, I'm sane.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"She argues a point that's not a point. And she says she hasn't said something but she clearly has. And then even when we watched it back, she would still go 'Well, I don't think I said that'. You were there on the screen saying it!"<\/p>\n
Speaking of the moment to Daily Star, Nicola said: "I couldn't believe it, absolutely not! We are absolutely nothing alike whatsoever. That is offensive! But I love Emma, we've worked together on a lot of shows, when I was in the jungle and on BOTS, I think she was a great Big Brother host." <\/p>\n

Nicola described the shoe as one of the most fun experiences of her life but said it did become quite "anxiety-inducing" sometimes. The mum-of-two explained: "I know it sounds really odd but it's the most fun you'll have in your life and then also like the most anxiety-inducing experience you'll have in your life.<\/p>\n
"It's just highs and lows that you would never experience before but the highs are really funny. It's a bizarre place to be, but never knowing what's going to happen is not good for many people."<\/p>\n
