The current season of Big Brother has been marred by inappropriate behavior. First, two cast members—Angela Rummans and Rachel Swindler—were filmed being racially insensitive, comparing themselves to an African-American contestant and worrying their tans would make them look too “ghetto." In another incident, JC Mounduix was filmed trying to use an ice cream scooper on the genitals of fellow houseguests, even going as far as putting his bare hand on a woman’s crotch.
After these controversial moments, CBS promised there would be “future consequences” for inappropriate behavior. Days after this announcement, another (white) cast member was filmed using the N-word on Thursday night.
The video, as TMZ captured, shows Kaitlyn Herman talking to two other guests when she decides to quote Drake’s “0 to 100” word for word: “I did go 0 to 100, n***a, real quick.” For what it's worth (which is not much), it looks like she realizes her mistake immediately.
According to Tuesday’s statement by CBS, the footage will not be used in the show broadcast. This clip was taken during the show's 24/7 online feed. After the ice cream scoop incident, CBS stated Tuesday, “Big Brother is a reality show about watching a group of people who have no privacy 24/7—and capturing every unfiltered moment and conversation in their lives. At times, the houseguests reveal prejudices and exhibit behavior that we do not condone. The producers have addressed two such incidents that were seen recently on the 24/7 online feed. In both cases, those involved have been warned about their inappropriate behavior and offensive comments, as well as future consequences. These events will not be part of any future Big Brother broadcast on CBS.”
