She later threw on a matching latex purple belted jacket, that perfectly co-ordinated with the rest of her monochrome look.
AJ took to the stage with her co-host Will Best, 39, who cut a dapper figure in a blue suit, featuring a statement gold buckle on the front.
The duo seemed to be in very high spirits as they graced the stage to announce who would be the fifth housemate to get the boot.
They even enjoyed a boogie in front of the crowd while everyone was waiting for the action to begin, as well as taking snaps with fans who brought along signs.
However, the fifth live eviction of the series did not go entirely to plan due to a huge technical error that left the hosts scrambling.
Dean Smith became the fifth person to leave Big Brother on Friday night – but got stuck in the house due to an issue with the door.
Tense scenes saw the 35-year-old barber from East London say his goodbyes after hosts AJ and Will revealed his time was up.
However, when he got to the front door to leave, he was surprised to find that it wouldn’t open, and AJ and Will were forced to leave the crowd waiting and cut straight to Late and Live.

‘Your door’s not working, if you don’t want me to leave that’s fine,’ he joked, while the hosts explained there had been an unprecedented issue with the house.
Eventually, Dean did make it out through the garden and got a live eviction exit, which was aired on Late and Live, before he joined AJ and Will on the sofa.
AJ laughed as she admitted: ‘It is live television, certainly anything can happen’.
Marcello, Lily and Hanah survived the public vote and made it through to another week.
‘I knew it, I knew it, I told you’ repeated Dean, as he found out that he was the fifth housemate to leave, adding: ‘I knew it was me, that’s okay.’
To fill the time while producers tried to get Dean out, AJ and Will cut to the house live, which caused more confusion for viewers.
During the segment, fans heard a female Big Brother voice speak to the housemates and tell them go inside.
Then, the contestants in the garden seemed to see a familiar face as they all started shouting for someone called James.

Fans rushed to X to reflect on the chaotic scenes they had just witnessed, writing: ‘The door breaking. The garden eviction. The producer voice. The awkwardly long time to get Dean onto the outdoor set (*cut for time*). Will going to find Dean. Hang it in the Louvre #BBUK#BBLL’
‘Big Brother exit door had the opportunity to do the funniest thing and it did #bbuk’
‘Dean being evicted as a result of a twist. The door not opening. Dean being shoved out the back door off screen. A real life panicked producer ushering the housemates back in over the tannoy #BBUK’
‘This stalling by the door is so awkward #BBUK’
‘JAMES, A FEMALE BIG BROTHER VOICE, A BROKEN DOOR, THIS IS CLASSIC CHAOS BIG BROTHER #bbuk’

It was announced during Friday’s live show that the vampires had won, with Big Brother revealing the shock twist that only vampires are able to nominate
As Head of House, Emma had the power to either deliver a killer nomination, or save one housemate and replace them with someone else
Eagle-eyed fans also noticed that the livestream is down and took to social media to question why, quipping: ‘I wonder if there’s no livestream so they can fix the door #bbuk’ and ‘Everything is going wrong tonight, livestream down #BBUK’
It came as the second departure of the week, after Martha Church became the fourth housemate to get the boot in a ‘brutal’ back door eviction on Wednesday.
Earlier in the programme, the housemates had to deliver their nominations face to face, instead of in the diary room to Big Brother.
For this week’s shopping task, they had been divided into two teams – villagers and vampires, with only one group able to win the luxury budget by the end.
It was announced during Friday’s live show that the vampires had won, with Big Brother revealing the shock twist that only vampires are able to nominate.
After they stood up one by one to nominate two people each, it was revealed that Nathan, Lily, Marcello, and Hanah had the most votes.
Lily had three nominations, and Hanah, Marcello and Nathan each had two.
However, as Head of House, Emma had the power to either deliver a killer nomination, or save one housemate and replace them with someone else.
She chose to save Nathan from the public vote and instead put Dean up for eviction.
In a quick turnaround, viewers were then given a short time slot to cast their vote for who they wanted to evict.
