It was one of the most somber finishes to a Big Brother season – never have we seen a houseguest casually walk through his confetti without emotion. It was an awkward finish to the show and a lot of that stemmed from Julie putting the contestants on blast for their treatment of others throughout the season.
In this article, we’ll give the BB fans a little reminder of other guests that crossed the line in the past, similar to the likes of Jack and Jackson this season. Heck, some of them were even kicked off the show without even getting evicted; that took place four times in the show’s history. We’ll also include others who also made insensitive comments and clearly, won’t return for an All-Star season.
Enjoy, folks!
15 Adam Jasinski
He might be the most controversial Big Brother winner ever. He took home the grand prize in season nine but it came at a cost.
Shortly after the show, Adam was arrested for possession, using his BB money to fund his illegal activity. Big Brother is harsh when it comes to arrests – they won’t mention his name ever again, that’s for sure.
14 Willie Hantz
In the history of Big Brother, only four contestants have been banished from the program for bad behavior. Willie was one of them. When things got physical with another contestant, the show had seen enough.
In addition, he was rude with lots of the other houseguests and kind of on a power trip throughout the show.
13 Frankie Grande
Frankie went from the most beloved BB houseguest early on to the most hated. Frankie’s ego rubbed fans the wrong way, especially on the live feeds.
Grande had an arrogance to himself because of his family name – he would even say that nobody would watch the show if he got evicted. His Diva attitude didn’t sit well with the audience, clearly.
12 Jack Matthews
Perhaps the fact that he resembled Aquaman gave fans hope that Jack might be a fan favorite throughout the recent season. Boy, were fans ever wrong... Jack became a huge villain on the live feeds for his insensitive comments pertaining to other houseguests.
Julie Chen put Matthews on blast following his eviction, something we’ve rarely seen in the show’s history. Clearly given all of this, he won’t return at any point, not even as a villain.
11 Aaryn Gries
Before the recent controversy hit the Big Brother world, former houseguest Aaryn Gries faced similar circumstances, being put on blast by Julie for her racist comments while in the house. She didn’t own up to them either, which made things that much worse.
With Big Brother trying to eliminate bullies from the show, it is clear we won’t see this former contestant ever again.
10 Chima Simone
It was a Big Brother exit like we’ve never seen before. When you’re on the show, it is important to follow whatever the producers tell you. Chima didn’t get that memo during her meltdown in the house – she refused to put on her microphone and making matters worse, she destroyed it by launching it in the Jacuzzi.
She would later state that production manipulation was the reason for her meltdown.
9 Amanda Zuckerman
She was entertaining to watch and really didn’t have a filter – however, this was her downfall at the end of the day.
Live streams caught Zuckerman making lots of terrible comments and some that can also be considered as racism. It was not a good look for Zuckerman – she won’t be mentioned again given her prior comments on the show.
8 Raven Walton
#RavenExposed trended on Twitter during season 19 – fans basically dug up all the lies she told about her personal life. Making matters worse, some would even state that she faked her disease in order to get sympathy from the audience and houseguests... Yikes!
Given all the controversy surrounding her name – she won’t be mentioned on the show. Fun fact, she’s still with Matt.
7 Scott Weintraub
Scott was just way too wild for Big Brother during his stint in season four. He was ultimately expelled from the show, becoming only one out of four to be kicked off without even being evicted.
From throwing furniture around to launching chess pieces at other houseguests, Scott was a trainwreck.
6 Christine Brecht
She was one of the only houseguests to actually get booed when she hit the stage in front of the audience following her eviction.
Not only was her gameplay poor but fans cringed at her closeness with some of the other men in the house throughout the season, given that she had a husband and family back at home.
5 Justin Sebik
We go all the way back to season 2 for this banned houseguest. He was thrown out on day 10 according to Big Brother Fandom.
Sebik made everyone uncomfortable and the show had seen enough when he physically started to threaten the other houseguests. The same source notes that he wasn't invited back for the final episode.
4 Ellis Hillon
We include a houseguest from Big Brother 19 over in the UK. She was removed from the show for her personal tweets that were filled with hate and racism. She would try to defend herself but the truth is, the facts were quite clear.
She did not return to the show and she’ll forever be regarded as a dark cloud that entered the house.
3 Alex Ow
She didn’t come across in the greatest light according to Top Tens. Given her comments on some of the live streams, Alex was considered a bully as she had harsh words for some of the other houseguests.
Her actions resulted in some serious unpopularity with the Big Brother fans – that showed when she was booted off the show with a tame crowd reaction.
2 Paulie Calafiore
He definitely didn’t play a game as successful as his brother Cody. Instead, Paulie rubbed lots of others the wrong way, in particular for his bad temper when things didn’t go his way (along with the way he would treat women in the house – several examples exist).
Surprisingly, Julie didn’t call Paulie out on any of antics on the streams, but she probably should have.
1 Jackson Michie
Jackson should go down as one of the greatest BB players of all-time, but that just won’t happen given all the controversy surrounding his name. We assume CBS will do its very best to suppress his victory in the upcoming years despite his dominance.
His comments made about other houseguests really buried his dominant season, ultimately.
