‘Big Brother Canada 2’: Quotes from Allison White on Andrew, evicting Arlie
It’s pretty fair to say that Allison White will go down in “Big Brother Canada” history. While she didn’t win the competition this year, she did have a trajectory that was far and away different than any contestant on this version of the show to date. She lasted for quite a while despite being a late addition after being stuck in the War Room, and she was also the keeper of the powerful Secret Veto.
Unfortunately, her problem really from the start of er game on is just that she couldn’t hammer down any solid allies other than Andrew, and while there were times where she was close to the Gremlins, there were not enough opportunities in the game where they could help her.
Just like with Arlie Shaban yesterday, this interview with Allison was conducted via Slice / production, and then sent to journalists in Q&A form. (There are limited outlets with access to jury members for the sake of keeping the integrity of the game.) We have some of the highlights from the Q&A for you below.
On if she was surprised by the house’s decision – “No, I am not surprised at all. I spun a tangled web before I left, after getting rid of Arlie, and put my faith in the promises Adel gave me which were not true. And it came down to me losing HOH so when that happened I wasn’t surprised I was the next target for Neda because she never trusted me and I never trusted her.”
On why she chose to align with Andrew – “He was the first person that actually made me feel comfortable in the house. Coming in to that house, the snake pit, and having everybody suspicious of me, he was just the first person to come up to me and have a conversation, it felt really comfortable. I just went from there, he was a really genuine person. It started for me as a game move but quickly turned to this is my friend, this is a person I can trust, and this is a person I want to spend time with.”
On what she discovered about herself through being on the show – “I’m actually not as good of a liar as I thought I was. It was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be, too. The trust thing was huge. I trust people easily, so having to constantly question people was hard and I don’t know if that will come outside with me or not.”
On what she would change – “OH MY GOD, I’D KEEP ARLIE! And I would have said 200 in that HOH, instead of 350.”
For the rest of the season, we’ll have these Q&As a little faster for you; there was just a delay this week thanks to the Easter holiday.
