Big Brother star Daniel Gorringe shocks his rivals by cross-dressing

Big Brother contestants Daniel Gorringe and Mat Garrick were given free rein of the house on Monday night.

And one of the first things they chose to do was cross-dress.

Former AFL player Daniel, 28, shocked his housemates when he was seen parading around in a short frock. 

Daniel and Mat were treated to a night alone in the house, as the other nine contestants were forced to camp under the stars until sunrise.

After sharing a hearty dinner, the pair decided to raid their female co-stars’ drawers to find something to wear.

The duo decided to try on Angela Clancy and Marissa Rancan’s clothing. 

‘It’s kind of concerning that I can fit into Angie’s stuff,’ Daniel said as he slipped a red halterneck dress over his tall frame.

‘What do you reckon?’ he joked, as he twirled coquettishly in front of Mat.

Mat, who squeezed into Marissa’s activewear tights, responded with a cheeky grin: ‘She’ll flip when she sees you!’

The men then paraded their outfits through the house and into the garden, where the remaining housemates were snuggled up in sleeping bags.

While several cast members reacted with laughter and gasps, Angela and Marissa were clearly unimpressed.

Daniel and Mat later mocked the women as they spoke to Big Brother in the diary room.

There are currently 12 contestants left in the house vying for the $250,000 cash prize.

Australia will vote for a winner next month during a live finale when there are only three housemates remaining.

Big Brother continues Tuesday at 7:30pm on Channel Seven
