Big Brother Canada 6 interview: Hamza Hatoum on leaving during Double Eviction

Hamza Hatoum

Entering Big Brother Canada 6 we weren’t altogether sure that Hamza Hatoum was going to be around for long just because of how confident he was about himself and how that could lead to him being somewhat of a social outcast. Yet, we actually think that he fared okay and was evicted a little bit before his time in the Double Eviction. He had some good allies and can win a lot of competitions. Unfortunately, he got saddled with three different things that helped to doom him Thursday night: A memory competition for HoH, a Veto with a high degree of randomness, and having someone in Olivia in power who he didn’t have a great relationship with.

How much did Olivia winning HoH seal Hamza’s fate? it was something we definitely asked him about in out interview with him this week.

There was a little bit of a different timeframe this week for Big Brother Canada exit press because of the Easter holiday; with that, the exit interviews with both Hamza and Veronica are a little bit shorter than usual. (Take a look here to read Veronica’s.)

CarterMatt – If anyone other than Olivia won Head of Household, would you be sitting here doing this interview today?

Hamza – Olivia was literally my worst-case scenario. I spoke to people and said ‘I’m throwing this comp.’ Anyone who won besides Olivia was not putting me on the block. Everyone was so adamant on getting this one person out in Ryan, and if not him than someone else like Maddy … but it had to be Olivia and she’s so slimy, man.

Would you have rather played the game that you did and gone home now, or play much more of an under-the-radar game and made it a lot further?

Anytime I come on Big Brother I will always play the way that I played. I’m proud of the way that I played. I’m an upfront guy — this is just my personality in real life. I don’t like to hide behind things, I like to instigate things, and I like to entertain. I like to have fun with things and I wouldn’t take it back. Unfortunately there are just bigger targets like me who end up leaving the game because other people end up sliding under the radar and making it until the end. But hey, I’ll be remembered and they won’t.

I wish I could’ve stayed a few more weeks, but I knew I would be a victim of a backdoor and it just sucks that it had to happen during a Double Eviction because I had like two minutes and it couldn’t campaign against Merron since he was one of my best friends in the house. If did have two or three days to campaign I easily would’ve persuaded people to vote for me.
