Called out. Big Brother contestant Kyle Capener was confronted for his comments about race on the CBS reality series.Kyle, 29, spoke with Monte Taylor and Terrance Higgins in the Have-Nots room during the Thursday, September 1, episode and admitted to subconsciously grouping together the minority cast members.
While Kyle attempted to justify his thinking, claiming the BIPOC players were all united by a similar goal to win, Terrance, 47, called his argument “bulls–t.”Monte, 27, seemed particularly hurt as he explained how many times in his life he’s experienced a similar level of racial bias that Kyle showed to their fellow houseguests.
However, Monte and Terrance appeared to disagree on what was the best move for the house, with the latter suggesting in footage from the live feeds that evicting Kyle might not help him change his ways.Turner suggested the houseguests all convene for a meeting to air out their issues, but the conversation gets a little rocky.
