We might say we’re watching Big Brother for social strategy, but in reality, it’s
We can say that we are watching Big brother As for social strategy, in reality, it’s all about the drama. Over the past 26 seasons, there have been some epic feuds in the Premier League, from arguments over replacement candidates to arguments over who cleans the house more.
Although there have been countless battles, only a few have stood out as iconic television moments.
Here are the top 5 Big Brother fights of all time…
Rachel Riley vs. Ragan Fox – Big Brother 12
Ragan Fox was relieved when Rachel Riley was kicked out of the house and sent to the jury. Unfortunately for him, she returned home as part of a “Pandora’s Box” transformation. The transformation only lasted 24 hours, but her brief return was enough to push Ragan over the edge.
When she entered the house, she called Rajan directly and told him that he should be nice to her since she was on the jury. He didn’t like the comment. He replied that it would be “an honor” if she didn’t vote for him in the final two. Ugh.
The fight escalated from there, with Rachel and Rajan trading insults. Rajan told Rachel she had no friends, insulted her job as a waitress, and called her an “absolute monster.” Rachel responded with equal energy, calling him a “big slut” who couldn’t keep a boyfriend.
The confrontation between Rachel and Rajan in season 12 of the show will forever be iconic. The insults were vitriolic and plentiful. It was a perfect reality TV show.
Keisha Smith’s Birthday – Big Brother 10
Kesha’s birthday is probably the most famous Big Brother fight of all time. The feud started when houseguest Jessie Godderz overheard Kesha Smith and Libra Thompson talking negatively about April Lewis. Jessie shared this information with April, who was eager to start the drama. She confronted the two girls and it didn’t go well. Kesha and Libra got defensive, which quickly turned into anger. Within minutes, the entire house was involved in the fight. Jerry McDonald stepped in and told Libra to shut up, which prompted Renee Martin to tell Jerry not to talk to people like that. Shortly after, the petty argument escalated into a full-blown explosion. After much yelling, the house finally calmed down enough to offer a sad “Happy Birthday” to Kesha. It was frustrating but very funny.
Britt Robinson vs. Angela “Rockstar” – Big Brother 20
On BB20, Britt Robinson lied about Rockstar flipping a vote to cause chaos in the house. Naturally, Rockstar was upset by the accusation and confronted him about his lie. For some reason, she focused on Britt’s audacity to stalk her on her daughter’s birthday. The comment made fans laugh, knowing that Britt didn’t care at all that it was her daughter’s special day.
He repeated the lie, asking Rockstar why she couldn’t have her move, which made her even more angry.
“Disgusting, disgusting,” she said. “I can’t believe that on my daughter’s birthday you’re going to drag my name through the mud like this.”
She didn’t stop there. To prove her innocence, she started banging pots and pans and walking around the house “celebrating” that Brett was still in the house. It was an interesting strategy, to say the least. Not only did this move convince the houseguests of her innocence, it also made them question her sanity.
Christy Murphy vs Nick Maccarone
Christy Murphy and Nick McCarron’s Big Brother 21 Taco Tuesday fight will always hold a special place in my heart. The drama began when Nick heard Christy had a target on his back. He confronted her about the situation, leading to an incredible scene.
Nick wanted revenge, so he tried to blow Christy’s game. He told the house her entire strategy and who she was planning to target. When she tried to deny Nick’s master plan, he responded by saying, “Show the truth, bro.” Christy loved to say that she had shown her success at BB’s house, so this was the perfect way for him to throw her words back at her.
Angela Murray vs. Matt “Crazy Eyes” Hardiman
The first week of Big Brother 26 was filled with chaos thanks to the always unpredictable first Head of House, Angela Murray. The 51-year-old let her madness get the best of her and used her time in power to target 25-year-old Matt Hardiman. She did so by giving a big speech in front of everyone, warning them that he was a verbally abusive boy with crazy eyes.
“I feel so honored to be a threat to you,” she said. “I want the houseguests to know how Crazy Eyes verbally threatened me so severely in my room during our one-on-one conversation. Then he said, ‘If you put me up there, someone is going to knock me down if it’s not me. Then when I fall, you better believe you’re going to get back up there.’”
The explosion was beyond awesome but also confusing. Matt hadn’t been verbally abusive to her in her room. He was probably a little cocky. He had said he could survive if she let him. But Angela took it to a whole new level. It was one of the greatest Big Brother scenes I’ve seen in years and I’m grateful to Angela for giving us that moment.
BB21 was a tough season to watch, but this scene made it all worth it for me.
