Vinnie - quits the kitchen in protest

The Press Association reports that Vinnie Jones lashed out at Dane Bowers and Nicola Tappenden, insisting that because they had gone against his wishes and allowed the rapper to help herself to the meagre food supplies they would be in charge of meals until Sunday.

He told them: "You two and Sov do the dinners, that's fair. You think there's enough so you do it."

Earlier Jones told Alex Reid that his hoped-for acting career was doomed in Hollywood because of his current reputation. Jones tried to persuade the cage fighter, who is dating glamour model Katie Price, to admit he is not really a cross-dresser.

Jones told Reid: "No one's going to want to work with you right now - if you offered me five million dollars to be in a movie with you, I wouldn't take it."

Jones told Reid that as far as the acting world is concerned he has been "sent to Coventry" because of what is currently written about him in the tabloid press. He said: "People will cross the street to get away from you."

Reid was discussing his future career with Jones, Bowers, Sisqo, actor Stephen Baldwin and former Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss.

Bowers told him: "Big Brother is a wicked opportunity for you because at the moment you're only known for being a cross-dresser and dating someone famous. This will give you the chance to show the real you."
