Teddi Mellencamp ‘Was Warned’ About Todrick Hall Before Playing ‘Celebrity Big Brother’: ‘Our Relationship Was Never Actually Real’

usmagazine.com:

No regrets. Despite becoming the first houseguest evicted on Celebrity Big Brother Friday, February 4, Teddi Mellencamp is happy with how she fought to stay in the game.The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 40, was voted out 5-3 over Diff’rent Strokes star Todd Bridges.Head of Household Miesha Tate originally nominated Olympic figure skater Mirai Nagasu and Queer Eye alum Carson Kressley, the latter as a pawn.

But when he won the Veto competition, Miesha put Teddi up as the replacement nominee next to Mirai.“I would have fought so hard to stay in, had I been given the opportunity,” Teddi exclusively tells Us Weekly about being backdoored. “I mean, I personally would have given somebody a fair fight. … It is super frustrating and I trusted Miesha.”While Teddi thinks she would have went home either way, she ended up sitting next to Todd on eviction night as a twist saved Mirai from the block.“I think I’m a bigger threat than Todd,” she tells Us. “I think they knew that physically and mentally, I had a better social game, and ultimately, you know, in the athletics department.

I showed my cards right at the beginning. I couldn’t help myself.”Teddi was in a majority alliance of six called “Formation” with Carson, Mirai, Todrick Hall, Cynthia Bailey and Shanna Moakler, but it quickly fell apart after some tension with Todrick.“I didn’t realize, but I guess our relationship was never actually real because from the very get-go, even when we formed our alliance, he had already been telling people in my alliance that he didn’t want me in there,” the reality star says. “So, I guess whatever relationship I thought we had was false to him.”Teddi adds that the singer and dancer pulled “on people’s heartstrings” about
