Julie tries hard to nail him but he evades everything. It's almost as bad as Jesse's interviews from last year. Almost.It is painful to listen to. I think he is a little too fond of herbs. http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=5167505n&tag=cbsnewsVideoArea.0

Thanks, Missy! These are some of the things I picked up from that interview. It sure was short! Rat packed. Lydia instigated it. You guys have no idea. It is intense. Would you characterize yourself as crazy? Skydiving wihtout parachute. Maybe you'll make it. Why did you want to try out. I love a challenge. If a ship is going around the world I'm going to jump on.

Wow ~ Julie doesn't think Braden likes or respects women just because Lydia got his goat? Why isn't she this hard on all evicted HG's? Yeah, yeah, he made a reference to her. Get over it, Connie. You married rich. Be happy. While I'm sure he's fond of the herbs, I'm not so sure I would have reacted any differently then he did during this interview. At one point, he says, can I go now? I think he was actually so relieved to be away from those people in that house that he just wanted out of the studio and to go on with his life. I honestly don't think he cared who got HOH which of course, Connie just couldn't understand because usually the HG's are still foaming at the mouth and Braden wasn't. The guy is quiet and he doesn't like to talk. He's not a rabid BB fan so he doesn't care who won the HOH ~ he just hopes his friends in the house do well. Geez, Connie, not everyone is going to kiss your ass. Not everyone is uber impressed because of who you're married to. Wait til Russell comes out and you will get the kind of interview you want. Personally, I'd rather know Braden in real life then Russell.

Who's Connie? Just because she married rich she should not be offended by being called a "ho"?? Sorry, but I'm not getting that logic. And I don't really think it has a thing to do with who she married. She was successful in her own right long before she married.

First morning show interview I have ever watched. Actually first anything morning show I have ever watched. I'm only sorry we are not going to get more Braden this summer. He is far more interesting than most of the predictable houseguests.

Bee, I'm guessing Kappy meant Julie, but got it mixed up with Connie Chung.

Goll-ee! Julie was sure pissed at Braden for the first 10 minutes or so by her tone and the way she grilled him. I felt she kept on pushing him to apologize for what he said ABOUT HER but he just wouldn't bite. I think he handled a very uncomfortable interview very well, obviously charming the audience and by the end, it looked like Julie got over some of her animosity toward him too. I think he gave back as good as he got and seems like a really cool guy. I think she kept on trying to make him look like a fool but IMO, it didn't work. Too bad he's out of the game and we're left with such bottom feeders instead. Als too bad Mrs. Moonves doesn't grill all the evictees in the same way.

I don't think she needed to try very hard to make him look like a fool. And, I honestly don't think she could care less that he may have called her a "ho". She has seen enough of the recaps and logs to know that Chima took that out of context and these people talk shit all the time and it is taken out of context and tossed back in their faces. I think she was much more concerned and addressing his racist comments. His calling her a "ho" doesn't amount to spit in her world.

I thought Kappy was being sarcastic: So, Julie, all of a sudden you think you're Connie now? I would have liked for Braden to stay longer. But this reminds me of Jannie's Michael. Guys like that are probably used to being "adored" w/o lifting a finger. They mostly don't know what to do when attacked or cornered under BB's HGs situation. I DO very much wish Braden had taken the opportunity and apologize about his "bad words" with sincerity! If he was really already out of the game in his head, he should realize what Julie was hinting and say nice "sorries" about all those bad words he'd blasted when he was out of sorts. Instead, he used the chance to attack Chima some more! &^$%% That's a domdom move! Maybe we will hear retractions in a while. Who knows???

Just got to read Holly & Missy's above mine. I agree w/Missy. Julie is all grown. She knows about the silliness in the House. I don't think she was mad at him. She really wanted him to used the time to say sorry about the B word to Kevin. She might not be really worried about Braden, but she could have done w/o all the foul cries on line and probably making hard news soon as it had happened before. Disclaimer: Unlike Braden, I am using Eng. as a 2nd language. Sorry I don't know how to get out of run-ons when I'm pressed w/time. P.S. Actually, I have no clue if Braden's 1st language was Eng. or not. ....

<His calling her a "ho" doesn't amount to spit in her world.> Sorry, but I beg to differ. I think it amounted to a whole lot of spit for Julie, being referred to as a Ho on national tv. You have to remember she comes from a whole different world, a world in which she's shown loads of respect on a daily basis (she is, after all, married to da boss) and most likely a very personally sheltered world. So I have no doubt that being referred to in such a way in front of so many viewers must of shocked the shit out of her and totally p'd her off.

When Braden left the house, the first thing he said to Julie was, "We need to talk." I think Braden knew darn well that what he said was wrong and he would be called to the carpet for it.

Chy, if Julie really views it as just "silliness", why would she give a toss and press so hard for him to apologise about "the B word" as you call it! Surely the epithet Ho is as bad as, if not worse (from her point of view anyway, being the one who was called it) as Beaner. So, it makes no sense that she would totally blow off the Ho insult but be so up on her high horse about the beaner insult. I have NEVER seen her go after anyone like that; she was snippy, pushy, and persistant in grilling him for over half the interview...there was certainly a personal reason for that, IMO. That has never been her interview style before this.

True Bee, and she certainly did try to call him to the carpet for it. He didn't play the way she was pushing him to though. Hmmmm, I wonder if she'll similarly push Lydia for her white gringo comment, or Jordan for her f*g comments? I sure hope she does.

Wasn't this taped after the show last night, I think I read that in a post from someone who was in the audience. Anyway they (the audience member) said he was almost impossible to interview as he wouldn't answer the questions and Julie thought she was the one who was nuts. Maybe that is why she seemed that way in the interview.

I don't have the feeds and Chima's eviction speech was bleeped out on the west coast. So just watching the TV show I did not hear Braden call Julie anything derogatory, and I don't recall hearing him use any raciest terms. (admittedly I am not into the show so may have missed it) ... So having missed his comments, I thought Julie looked silly. This is Big Brother and he is a simple surfer dude...It seemed to me that Julie thought she was interviewing some head of state...

Chima's speech was bleeped out on the East coast too, Bonbon. I thought Julie's interview was overkill too. If you think about the repulsive things Evel Dick said to Jen you have to wonder why no fuss was made about that. Now THERE was a misogynist if ever there was one. Much worse than what Braden said, and said with accompanying violence, no less.

Bon...Braden said to Kevin, "I'm a white American, why don't you go back to Mexico, you beaner." And, while playing a game of "Simon Says" which they turned into "Julie Says" outside with all the HG, Braden called Julie a "ho". Something like, "Julie, the Ho married to the CBS president." And...Chima's comments were bleeped on BOTH coasts. We know what she said by being able to read her lips and knowing that she was going to address it to get Braden voted out instead of herself.

I think she was just giving him a chance to say he is not a racist or bigot as Chima said and he would not do it. He seemed incapable of understanding the questions. I think that up until jury, julie will be harder on all evictees. She asked some pretty pointed questions on the live show . She also did not look especially shocked by chimas outburst. They knew something was up. They listen in all day. JMO but Julie was not bent out of shape by Bradens comment about her. She has been called worse.

Wasn't right when Dick did it. Wasn't right when Braden, Jordan, Russell, Lydia do it.
