Jeremy McConnell entered the Celebrity Big Brother house last night, and Twitter exploded with mixed opinions of him.
The former MTV star caught the eye of viewers thanks to his colourfully tattooed body, but also due to his honesty in saying that he’ll be “like a kid in a candy shop” with the women in the house.
The Dubliner mostly attracted a lot of ladies on Twitter for his looks, with TOWIE reality star Ferne McCann and the Queen of the Jungle Vicky Pattison joining in to admire his appearance.

However, it wasn’t all compliments for Jeremy as plenty of people had a lot of things to say about his extravagant tattoos.
It seems some people aren’t a fan of a fully tattooed bod, with ultimate TV baddie Katie Hopkins even chiming in to have her say.
Jeremy has chosen to wear leggings whilst being garrotted by a butterfly. This is what you get when you leave school unable to read. #CBB

Jeremy needs to go on Tattoo Fixers rather than #CBB. ?

Jeremy’s tattoo on his neck looks like it’s strangling him and holding his head up ?? #CBB

Despite a few begrudgers, a lot of people seem to be loving Jeremy already, with some people even comparing him to his close pal and former Big Brother contestant Marc O’Neill.
James Jordan, who is a former CBB contestant and dancer, tweeted that he thinks Jeremy will be the next Marc, which was good news as he was “TV Gold”.
Jeremy reminds me of @marqoneill I hope so because Marc was TV Gold #CBB @bbuk

I’m expecting big things from Jeremy McConnell. He’s pals with Marc from last year so probably got tips off him! #CBB

If I remember rightly Jeremy was great on Beauty School Drop Outs. I think he’s the new Marc #CBB
