‘Big Brother Canada 2’: Rachelle Diamond on turning point, Sabrina, tough moments
This past week in the “Big Brother Canada” house was a predictable one, since from the moment that Rachelle Diamond didn’t win the Power of Veto, it was clear that she was going to go home. She could at least be a threat in endurance competitions, and that made her more of a target than her fellow alliance partner / Gremlin Sabrina.
As with the rest of our jurors, Slice didn’t make Rachelle available for phone interviews, but they did send out a Q&A for journalists to use after her eviction from the game. We’re going to share the highlights below, which include her comments on her alliance, why she didn’t make a big move, and also something that has taken on a huge life of its own via the internet.
On the turning point in the game – “I honestly think that when Canada was HOH that’s when everything shifted gears because the first five really was owning the house until that point, and so, when two members of the first five went up on the block, that’s when everything changed.”
On why she didn’t campaign more – “Sabrina is my best friend so we kind of made a deal that we didn’t want to campaign too hard against each other. We were kind of campaigning for each other to stay actually, Sabrina was like ‘I’ve actually come closer to winning more comps so you should keep Rachelle’. I tried a little to campaign, my only argument was that I would be a good person to take to final two with because I’ve only one won comp and that Sabrina has come a little bit closer to winning things. Other than that, I knew I was the target and they thought I was the threat and I don’t think they were changing their minds.”
On what she learned about herself – “I have a lot more patience than I thought I did. I am very impatient in the real world, I am always busy and doing things, and I hate waiting. If my boyfriend is 10 minutes late I freak out! But, I got used to waiting around a lot and I realized that I have a lot of patience. If you don’t have patience in there, you will definitely crack.”
On her best and worst moments in the game – “My best moment was the HOH I won. It was an endurance comp and everyone got flung out and was complaining about how much it hurt and I was so proud of myself for making it to the end. I won one thing so that was my best moment!
“My worst moment was when I was shown peeing in the hot tub on national television.”

Oh, and Rachelle does not even know the half of the internet’s reaction when it comes to the hot tub. It’s probably the way that she handled it (which included Adel getting in there later) that made it even worse than it probably would’ve been otherwise.
