BIG BROTHER is underway and it’s off to a WILD start! Every week we’ll be picking the brain of the evicted house guest to get the real deal on what went down in the house! Time to chat with Jillian!

 

You’re such a sweet soul in this house, swimming with sharks and snakes. We’re only a few weeks in and this season is awesome! Maybe not so much for you, because you were put on the block against almost a quarter of the house. Cameron, Christmas, Megan, Alex, Christmas again. Am I missing anyone? That must have been hella stressful…

I live this but it’s so weird that everyone knows. It was very stressful. When you’re on the block, for me since day one, it’s really hard to be yourself. It’s hard because people think you’re just talking to them because you don’t want them to vote for you. You feel like you can’t really be yourself because you feel like they’re judging you, like she just doesn’t want me to vote for her. The first week that’s how I felt, going into the second week I just didn’t care. If they can’t see that I’m trustworthy enough to keep me in the house, then so be it. I was literally next to so many nominees, and with everyone person you have to take a different angle of why they should keep you over that person, especially when it’s your friends, it’s really hard.
 

Let’s talk about Paul for a sec cause this is a monkey wrench thrown into the house.First he comes through those doors so you have to prepare playing with, and against, a vet and THEN in one of the most epic POV ceremonies EVER, Paul reveals he’s won three weeks of safety with the Pendant of Protection, and Cody almost craps his pants. What went through your mind during those two moments?

As a viewer, it was awesome, I love seeing that kind of stuff on TV. As a player, I was like oh my god. I just wished it was him because I knew if it was him, a lot them wanted to get him out. So as a player, it didn’t work in my advantage.

 

There’s so much tension in the house so soon, especially with the whole Paul vs. Cody and Jessica vs. Christmas beefs, and you were visibly shocked with the blindside. Let’s back track for a sec. Why was everyone so gung ho to be on Team Cody to get Christmas out?

Actually I honestly didn’t see it as that. On my side, I wasn’t really sure about Josh and Kevin, I felt like people wanted to keep Christmas more than me. But at the time I thought it was going to be a tie. But even two of the votes that I had “locked in”, I could tell they didn’t know whether to keep me or keep Christmas. So even when Cody put her on the block, I don’t think anyone was gung ho to get rid of her.
 

Going forward, there are a LOT of strong women in the house. If by some miracle of the Big Brother Gods, you were given a second chance to play this season, which one of those girls would you wanna team up with in a secret alliance and who would you love having a hand in evicting?

Now because I was evicted, if I get a second chance, I’m definitely going to confront Alex, and she’s going to tell me what happened. And going back in the house, I would try to talk to Jessica and make an alliance with her because I know she needs people on her side because they’re all gunning for her. As far as trying to evict someone, I would try and backdoor Alex – I’m pretty sure she was the one who flipped on me.
 

What are your thoughts on all the showmances this season, and if you had your pick (guy or girl) who would you have liked to get all buddy/buddy snuggle bunny with in there?

My thoughts on the showmance, I think that a lot of them just want attention because for them to align that early on, I felt like it was too soon. I don’t know if they think it’ll take them to the end or what. The only one that I thought was cute was Mark and Elena. Mark adores Elena, and you can see it in his face, the way he looks at her, he really likes her. The other two are super annoying – I think it’s just by circumstance. For me, I have a showmance already, it’s with Ramses. We have our hashtag it’s #jamses or #rillian. I’m just kidding but we are really good friends. For me there was nobody in the house that I wish I could be with them.
