In a clip shown on spin-off show Celebrity Big Brother's Bit on the Side, he called his housemates to the kitchen to break the news to them.

He said: "Can I speak to everyone please? I've not been happy for a few days, I love you all and I really mean that. I just can't.
"It's a great experience but I'm just not feeling me. I just don't want to sit out there and smoke all day. Crack on everyone and kick its arse."

It comes just days after Brandon was removed from the house for medical tests after complaining of chest pains.

At the time a source said: "Brandon wasn't well at all. It was pretty serious. He immediately saw the medics that were on standby at the house."

"But there were concerns his condition could worsen and could even become critical so it was decided he needed to go to hospital," the source added to the Daily Star.

Brandon's exit from the house comes just a day after Ray J walked out to seek medical treatment.

Ray J then threatened to sue Celebrity Big Brother bosses after quitting the show.

The rapper was forced to leave the show to go to the hospital after suffering intense toothache and now he has said he will sue producers of the show if he is not allowed to return after seeking treatment.

"I'm ready to go back into the house and they won't let me back in and I'm really hurt by it," he told TMZ.

"What's sad is I can't do the show anymore, they won't let me back in the house and it's not fair to me," he added.

When asked if he would sue producers for not letting him back in, Ray J said: "Put me back in the house and let me work. This isn't right. It's wrong bro, it's wrong."

He added: "I'm going to drive myself to the dentist and get my tooth fixed and then drive up to the house and try to get back in."

TMZ claims the former sex tape partner of Kim Kardashian was in so much pain he had to beg to leave the house and while leaving to go to the hospital he blacked out.

The website is reporting that he is still in the hospital with severe tooth issues and won't be returning to the Channel 5 reality show.

Channel 5 confirmed to Sun Online that Ray J had left the house and said more details would be forthcoming.

The rapper became one of the highest ever paid housemates with his deal worth a reported £810,000 but whether he collects the full fee after leaving the house remains to be seen.
