‘Big Brother 16’ finale: Frankie Grande lands post-show interview on ‘The Talk’
Ready for a little bit of controversy already when it comes to “Big Brother“? Well, we’ve got the latest on something that you may be more than a little bit annoyed about.
Today, it was confirmed that there was one contestant who will be on “The Talk” Thursday who has spent all of this season in the house … and it’s Frankie Grande. Why? That’s the biggest question we have. We know that his sister is famous, and maybe this buys good will with Ariana Grande. Personally, though, we’d rather see the winner, or someone who was genuinely well-liked by others in the game, as the person selected to appear there.
Update: Derrick WILL be appearing, as well. That was announced tonight.
The one main issue that we have with Frankie, his sister or all the conspiracy theories notwithstanding, is that we never really felt he was completely genuine in the game. There were times when he’d be super-happy and smiling and constantly talking about glitter (like his interview with Julie Chen), and then there were the comments he made about wanting all the guys to violate Victoria and his threats to send his social media army after the people still playing the game.
In the end, what we really just hoping moving forward is that “Big Brother” finds a way to avoid casting more of these pseudo-celebrities on the show, since it really upsets the premise and the interactivity of it all. We like seeing people who don’t know anything about fame, and how they all react in these situations. Frankie’s “mogul” reveal was actually more memorable for how badly he came off than anything else.

So Julie is playing up Frankie’s ego thinking anyone wants to see him on TV ever again. Thanks for nothing Julie, and I won’t be watching The Talk ever again. I know, a one-person boycott won’t accomplish a thing, but Frankie was disgusting, the rape comments about Victoria alone are enough for Frankie to be shunned. Seems Julie likes that sort of thing, so buh-bye.

Mama J , turned my stomach with her refusal to vote for Derrick for “false Praying “. What a joke !!!. Just because he played the game better game better than she or anyone else did doesn’t mean he was any more honest in his prayers than everyone else that was backstabbing everyone in the house or “CRYING” about everything that didn’t go “HER” way. I’m sure he did a lot of praying during those 97 days in the house.

She was more of a waste of space than Victoria was.

Frankie doing his little rehearsed dance when all the players were standing together during the finale was just, well, sickening.

When I was a little girl, my parents would take me to the circus to see the strange and odd things. Frankie reminds me of those days. All I can say is he went from looking like a troll doll – when he first came into the house – to looking like a neapolitan ice cream cone. His appearance on the The Talk must be due to his semi-famous sister … you know, the one whose shadow he’s been living in. As soon as he disappears back into his youtube land, I won’t have to see him again. Great to see Derrick win, though. If I could play like that, I’d be applying to do a season. I’m more like Zach, entertaining but don’t know when to keep my mouth shut.
