Frankie Grande exits the house coated in glitter as he places sixth place in the Celebrity Big Brother final
FRANKIE Grande has come in sixth place on Celebrity Big Brother 2016.
The US TV personality and YouTube star was up against Renee Graziano, Aubrey O'Day, Marnie Simpson, Ricky Norwood and Stephen Bear in the final showdown.
As the first person evicted on the live final, Frankie left the way he came in - in a dapper blue suit can covered completely in glitter.
The larger than life character won fans over with his happy-go-lucky attitude and dancing abilities.
On the final day, he told the Diary Room: "I've always said shine bright like a Frankie, and when people throw shade, shine brighter."
In his exit interview he said: "I made it to the finals which is incredible. I didn't do that when I did it in America."
When asked why he didn't win, he said: "I think it's definitely something to do with how the voting works. My fan base was primarily in America. That's why I feel like a champion."
He managed to remain neutral across the board and only had one notable argument with (unsurprisingly) Bear.

One his relationship with the volatile housemate, he said: "Honestly, my relationship with Bear walking out of that house is one of the things I'm proudest off to date.
"The fact that I can walk out of the house, shake his hand and say 'I enjoyed playing this game with you' - the fact I could have that, was amazing."
Frankie had a little help from superstar sister Ariana Grande who plead with her fans to help him win on her Snapchat account.
Viewers branded him, alongside Ricky Norwood, a 'fence sitter' for his refusal to get involved in confrontations, but he unwittingly started a downward spiral for Katie Waissel after he was seen branding her "unstable".
At the end of the interview, he said he wanted Renee to win, but thought that Bear would take the crown.
