I can't believe they would let her walk out (or get pushed out) and then let her continue to collect a stipend in the jury house. I think she's gone and she's gone for good. And good riddance.

IMO the self-professed "strong" woman turned out to be a quitter. Chima knew that most likely she would probably get the boot on Thursday. Her ego simply couldn't take that. I do think that she has some issues. However, I do think her main purpose in there (like others in the past) was to try and further her career. Seeing as her days were numbered, I figure that being the first to ever "quit" BB is her next attempt at trying to make a name for herself and attain some fame. There's no doubt in my mind that she'll be wanting to do the entertainment and talk show circuit....where I can see her speaking out about how BB promotes racism and the abuse of women. My wish would be that no one gives her the time of day. JMO

The only time anyone should give her was her departure time!

Quitters are generally not looked upon favorably. She won't obtain the fame she desires by having quit. I still say if she'd taken the high road the entire season so far, she might have actually been successful in her mission to write an expose. As it stands now, pretty much anything she tries to say or do will be entirely discredited by her quitting. Chima, don't you know? NO ONE loves a quitter!

Do we really know whether she walked or was evicted?

After reading the AG interview, I have to say with certainty, AG is NOT a very good judge of character and maybe they need to let someone else pick the contestants and she stays out of it.

Not surprised the post is gone. Nor am I. Grain of salt, and all that. My opinion is that there is no way Chima will be at Jury. Obviously, if she quit, she quit and therefore would have no vote. If she was kicked off (which she certainly should have been) they are not about to let her go ranting to Jury about whose fault it was (because it certainly wasn't hers, after all) that she was booted from the house. Chima is done. DUNNN! And it's delightful.

I just hope they go forward.. not backward.. in other words do not bring Jessie back! Give "America" the tiebreaker vote on the jury.

Puzzled, I've read both accounts--that she was fired or that she quit.

Landed blissfully in NY. Now layover. Sadened by news of Chima. Devaststed really. Y? Y? Y? It's hardest thing I ever did. 2x.27 minutes ago from txt

Thanks, Smokey. I guess we'll know for sure on Sunday. They have to say something.

I guess Marcellus was a Chima fan? I knew there had to be one out there. LOL I wonder if Jessie has been told. Hope not.

I don't know that Marcellus was a fan, but he knows her in real life, apparently. She's some sort of celebrity interviewer so it seems likely they know each other that way.

On the live feed thread, someone has a link to EW where CBS announced today that Chima was KICKED OFF! She doesn't even get the dignity of quitting!

Here's another article that claims CBS confirmed Chima was booted from the show. I don't know how reliable this is, but FWIW: http://news-briefs.ew.com/2009/08/15/big-brother-contestant-chima-kicked-off-the-show/

I really hope she got booted so she can't enjoy the notoriety of being the first DOR. It will be her word against theirs though. And they can edit it to a boot so I really hope they do.

It really won't be her word against theirs. They'll have plenty of film with which to back up their statements if they did, indeed, throw her off the show.

But she may have been booted because she refused to follow rules.. in other words it was her choice to leave rather than to play the game by the rules. To me that is quitting.

Loving the EW article. Perhaps we should change the Thread title to: Chima was FIRED!!!

From the article: An official statement from CBS is expected. Please check back for updates. Will do!

Actually, I don't think she is the first DOR (if indeed she quit). I think in BB9 a guy DOR'd because of an emergency in the family.

I agree Seamonkey. I think Chima was wanting drama like Lydia said. I don't think she truly wanted off the show she just wanted attention. I'm glad CBS said enough.

Gnut... Drop on Request. Drop Out Request. Discharge on Request. Depart on Request. Are some of the variations of DOR.
