Big Brother 11: Exclusive chat with Chima Simone
August 15, 11:14 PMBig Brother ExaminerTommy Sarda


Today, Chima Simone sat down and composed an email for the Big Brother Examiner. Below you'll find a transcript. You will find that Chima's portrayal of the events is somewhat different then what CBS is pushing out there for the audience. There are questions yet to be answered, but this makes for some interesting reading.



Hi Thomas. Yes, I did in fact quit the show, although there are reports on EW from CBS to the contrary. Big Brother would like everyone to believe I was kicked off for not following the rules, but I went to the producers repeatedly over the past couple of days wanting to leave....wanting out of that house!

As crazy as that house is, the producers NEVER want the world to think or know that we houseguests DO LEAVE when it becomes futile to stay. I lost faith in the show & my ability to remain committed to this game. All of the remaining housemates know I wanted to leave and that is why any conversation concerning me is cut in the live feed because they don't want America to hear the truth about my voluntary departure.

Do you really believe that I would be expelled for tossing my microphone when past houseguests have only been kicked off for violence & threats of violence? You know better, as do I.

It's better that I left. I did what was best for me in this game and that was to leave. When I chose to play & play hard the power I did earn was completely usurped by a game piece never used before in this game and my HOH reign was rendered useless. I have no regrets. As cliche' as it sounds, until the public is a part of a human pressure cooker, then the judgements should cease.

I find it interesting that my personal attacks on Russell have been highlighted, but his attacks on me pushed under a rug. Selective portrayals? I think so. Russell did terrorize the house, especially the women in the house. Why America constantly finds men attacking women okay, yet vilifies the woman defending herself, will always confound me. But what's done is done, now BB fans can find a new woman to hate. I didn't sign up for what I was exposed to & I left gladly. It was the principle of the matter, the $500,000 prize be damned. That's all for now! Take Care...'

Well, there you have it ladies and gentlemen from the keyboard of the lady herself and straight to you via cut and paste!

She needs a psychiatrist. Seriously, her control and entitlement issues are off the Richter Scale.

I very nearly needed a new keyboard when I went back to the CBS site and re-read Chima's bio:

"An exotic beauty, Chima is truly as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside"

Huh?

Has Marcellus posted a reaction to Chima leaving since he is the one who cast her for the show?

Yes. He said she blew a great opportunity and he is disappointed in her.

But, um, HE didn't cast her. Robyn Kass and AG did.

I thought I read a blog where he said he is the reason she is on the show? Oh well.

Marcellus did say Chima called him and said she wanted to be on the show and he made it happen. He said in a blog that the Chima he sees on BB isn't the Chima he knows.

All you have to do is tell Marcellus how fabulous he is and he thinks you are a wonderful person.

I seriously doubt that the producers put Chima on the show because Marcellas requested it.
I have no doubt, however, that Marcellas would think that's what happened, because Marcellas thinks he's super duper special.

But the producers may not have seen her if Marcellus had not brought her to their attention.

Obviously she has glanced at the internet and gotten a taste of what America thinks of her.... Hence the statement, BB fans can find a new woman to hate.

Merry...I'm sure there are many people brought to the producers thru previous HGs. Doesn't mean they are guaranteed to get on.

I'm just saying that I can see Marcellas thinking it was all because of him, when it was nothing more than an introduction.

IIRC, Boogie sends lots and lots of potential HGs to the producers, too. Doesn't mean he's personally responsible for any of them that actually get on the show.

That was my point Merrysea if Marcellus never suggested Chima the producers may have never known known about her. While the final decision was AG's, it was Marcellus who brought her to the front of the line so to speak.

I agree with Bee -- front half of the line maybe, but not "the front". AG has a big pool to choose from.

I think that Chima over-estimates how much impact she had on us. I didn't hate her. She didn't inspire that much emotion in me. There have been far more despicable people on this show than her. She's just been irritating to me.

Alison from Big Brother 4 inspired a great deal more hatred from me than Chima. April, Ollie, and Jerry disgusted me far more than Chima.

Chima just made me want to leave the room and call Jerry Springer casting because she could have come straight from one of their shows. Either that or Maury Povich. The same screaming and in-your-face finger wagging, and name calling is the standard on those shows. It doesn't call for much thought or strategy, and strategy is what big brother is all about.

Gemma ITA the thought of Boogie makes bile rise in the back of my throat. Same with Chiara. Chima is just someone I never want to meet or hear about again.

Except tonight. I hope they feature Chima getting shitcanned for the whole hour tonight, complete with two-year-old temper tantrums, finger-wagging scream-fests, racist name-calling, constant threats to Big Brother production and mean/irrational/destructive behavior.

Then I never want to hear of or see her again.

Gemma, I agree. Chima doesn't even come close to the ones I despised. Chima just makes me roll my eyes. I feel sorry for her family. Hope she gets some pro help.

Gemma you r so right....Jerry, APril and Ollie were ones I disliked much more than Chima.

Chima is sick and is to be pitied to some degree.

Chima was accustomed to being catered to due to her circumstances. For example it happened on college grounds - university bent backwards to help her.

Police and district attorney needed her testimony therefore she received nice treatment so to speak.

Her family and friends could never make the pain go away and did their best to help her and appease.

Chima has to beleive that special treatment is due to her after receiving so many years of it from all around her in both her inner and outer circles.

GAL! Too funny! I agree, tonight I will thoroughly enjoy watching her get her spanking for her two-year-old temper tantrums.

I had forgotten about Chiara, actually I had blocked her out! LOL! One day during BB3 I was looking at screen caps on one of the other less wonderful sites featuring big brother. There was a picture posted there and I was shocked to see that someone had posted a picture of me! I called my husband and I asked him if he knew how a picture of me from high school had gotten on that website. He looked and started to laugh and said "Sweetie, that's Chiara!" I hadn't realized how much she looked like me until that moment. I was horrified! Then I went and looked in the mirror and started to laugh and I chanted "I know what Chiara's going to look like when she gets fat!" LOL!

Well, if nothing else, Chima has overwhelmed Jessie as the most talked about, controversial and disliked member of this year's cast.

Jessie -- The Man. The Myth. The Footnote.

Tre, you are right about Chima being sick. She hasn't realized that the world doesn't revolve around her, and when she does I don't know if her ego will be able to take it.

She does need help.
