Scandal has already rocked the latest series of Big Brother, with racy
photos of tiny belly dancer Rima Hadchiti circulating on the internet.

Hadchiti, a 1m-tall performer from Melbourne, features in a range of
provocative pictures on a website where women post nude snaps of
themselves.

Hadchiti, 25, has been married for just over a year and says promises she
is "ready to show Australia what she's got!" in her Big Brother profile.

Online bookmaker Centrebet, which rated the housemates on last night's
opening show, had pegged Hadchiti as a dark horse to win the series.

However, the agency immediately reacted to the petite performer's
provocative snaps — winding her odds out from $10 to $12.

"Big Brother fans are always prepared for anything, but I don't think they
were quite prepared for this," Centrebet spokesman Neil Evans said.

"I thought she handled herself well last night, but any sort of public
support will almost certainly be undone by these revelations."

The racy website, which has been operating for five years, displays naked
pictures of hundreds of women and claims to be a "public art apparatus".

"Each day we exhibit a new folio in which the artist presents herself in a
bold statement about nudity, fame and the Internet," the site claims.

"Is it crude? That depends on what you do with it."

Hadchiti last year featured in the stage production The Pillowman with
Joel Edgerton and also performed as a belly dancer at Sydney's Royal
Easter Show.
