Little Mix's Jade Thirlwall has confused fans by encouraging them to vote to save Courtney Act (real name Shane Jenek), AFTER the lines closed for last night's Celebrity Big Brother triple eviction.

The pop star tweeted, 'You know what to do. #CBB 💛 Jade x' with a photo of Courtney and text telling viewers how to vote to save the celebrity from eviction.

And some eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice this saying, 'LOVE YOU but the votes are closed... :( however voting for the winner can start I think tonight? Or is it now?'. sic

But unfortunately for some others had already voted, despite the lines being closed with one saying they had voted 51 times!

Earlier this month Jade revealed she would be backing Courtney Act to win Celebrity Big Brother when she tweeted,

'In honour of @courtneyact joining the @bbuk house and already delivering the most iconic entrance 😂♥️ I’ll be rooting for you! #ShaneToWin 🙌🏽 jade x'.

Courtney starred alongside Jade and the other Little Mix girls, Perrie, Leigh-Anne and Jesy in their 'Power' video. The video also starred all four of the girls' mums and the stars from RuPaul's Drag Race.

The video, which highlights female empowerment, featured William, Courtney and Alaska from the American reality show and showed the Little Mix girls strutting their stuff, as they are joined by a crowd of women with 'girl power' and 'love and peace' signs.

Luckily, despite Jade's mistake, Courtney did survive last night's evictions, with Ashley James, Malika Haqq and Amanda Barrie saying "goodbye" to the Celebrity Big Brother House.

After leaving the house the three celebrities had one last message for their fans which was later posted on Twitter.

Celebrity Big Brother is now into its final week and yesterday Channel 5 revealed they would be introducing some of the previously evicted housemates today (31st January), for a task which will be shown on Thursday night's episode.

In a statement Channel 5 confirmed, "Some of the ex-housemates from the series will be returning to the house tomorrow as part of a task! This will be shown in Thursday's 9pm episode of CBB on Channel 5."

Take a look at the Celebrity Big Brother housemates:
