Kellie Maloney has threatened to "knock" James Jordan's "lights out".

The former boxing promoter - who was known as Frank Maloney before he revealed he'd been living as a woman for the past year - has been clashing with the former 'Strictly Come Dancing' professional in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house.

Speaking to her fellow housemate, 'White Dee' Kelly of 'Benefits Street', on the Channel 5 reality series, she said: "I can't be in the same room as James.

"The more I'm around James, the more I want to knock his lights out."

The 61-year-old star added that she hoped the public would vote her out of the house tonight (03.09.14), after she was nominated for eviction alongside Lauren Goodger, Ricci Guarnaccio, Gary Busey, Frenchy and Stephanie Pratt.

Kellie's anger with James was further ignited during a conversation about Lauren and Ricci's flirty relationship, as Kellie claimed it was no-one else's business, prompting James to ask her if she'd got out of the wrong side of bed.

She retaliated, saying: "I don't like your company James, do me a favour and don't talk to me."

Speaking in the Diary Room later, she said: "He's a very false person, he's a bully ... two faced people are something I don't tolerate."
