‘Big Brother 18’ finale: Corey Brooks on his future with Nicole (backyard interview highlights)

There were times when Corey Brooks had some things going for him during “Big Brother” this season, but ultimately he couldn’t win the competitions when he needed to — at the same time, we also don’t think that he would have won the game had he made it there.

However, his alliance partner in Nicole Franzel DID win, and we were interested in hearing his take on that with Jeff Schroeder following the finale. You can see a few highlights from this interview below.

On the outcome – “She deserves it 100%. After the roundtable I knew she had some votes I didn’t expect … It was the best feeling ever.”

On Da’Vonne’s vote – “She was someone I thought was a little bit bitter, but during the roundtable when [we discussed] I started to think she had that vote.”

On Paulie and Zakiyah voting for Nicole – “Paulie and Zakiyah loved Nicole. Me and Paulie [were close], Nicole and Zakiyah were like ‘this.’ She had their backs all season.”

On his future with Nicole – “We’re not going to rush anything, but hopefully things progress. She’s a great girl. There’s a chance there; I like Nicole, she’s beautiful inside and out, but I haven’t hung out with her outside the house. Hopefully she’s paying for the date.”

Corey said that one of his favorite moments of the season was when he gave a striptease in a middle of an argument, and that was actually one of the funnier moments of the season to date. He claims that his life is not going to change much.
