The fans are accusing Cody Calafiore, Enzo Palumbo, and Bayleigh Dayton of mistreating and making fun of Kaysar Ridha on Big Brother 22: All-Stars.
Warning! Spoilers for the Sunday, August 30 episode of Big Brother below!
The fans are accusing Cody Calafiore, Enzo Palumbo, and Bayleigh Dayton of mistreating and making fun of Kaysar Ridha on Big Brother 22: All-Stars. Kaysar's biggest ally in the game, Janelle Pierzina, was evicted by a 9-2 house vote that took place in week 3. The nomination block consisted of both Janelle and Kaysar... but the dominant alliances of the house concluded that Janelle was more of an immediate target for their game in the short term. In the days that preceded her eviction, Janelle told Kaysar that he had the opportunity to improve his relationships inside the house without her being there.
Immediately after Janelle's eviction, Enzo became the fourth HOH on Big Brother: All-Stars. It didn't take very long for him to start talking about targeting Kaysar. All in all, Enzo wants to finish what his alliance has started in week 3, ultimately evicting Janelle and Kaysar before jury. The fans were upset at the prospect of losing two fan-favorites so early, but the discourse surrounding Kaysar's elimination was initially just game-related. As the days went on, however, certain comments that were made by the players started to feel a little too personal for the fans.
On Friday, August 28, Enzo, Cody, and Daniele shared how they feel about Kaysar inside the Big Brother 22 house. In this first clip, Enzo brings up an earlier interaction he had with Kaysar. During that initial conversation, Kaysar told Enzo that he understood why he's a big threat to the house. To Dani and Cody, Enzo laughs about Kaysar's words and pokes fun at him, claiming that Kaysar isn't a threat at all. Cody then adds that his eviction message for Kaysar will be: "You played the game three times, and I was in here more days than you... in one season. Enjoy outside, see ya later. Pre-jury for a third time." In a second video, Bayleigh and Da'Vonne are also in the HOH room with Enzo, Daniele, and Cody. Enzo jokes that this week's Power of Veto competition will be "How to make Middle Eastern food," which heavily implies that production plans on rigging the competition for Kaysar to win. Furthermore, several fans are now calling this statement Islamophobic. Below are reactions from @weabstan14 and @marleytargaryen.
Another contentious conversation that took place on BB22 was between Bayleigh and Kaysar in the bathroom area. In this clip, Bayleigh tells Kaysar the following: "You and Janelle have already done so much damage to my game. You used my name, you tell people I'm one hundred percent locked (...). I had to check Janelle about it, now I'm checking you about it." Janelle and Kaysar have been trying to alert Bayleigh and Da'Vonne that the majority alliance doesn't have their best interests at heart. However, it doesn't seem like they're trying to work with Kaysar now that Janelle is gone. On Twitter, Bayleigh's husband Swaggy C shared a tweet where Kaysar told Bayleigh about what the dominant alliance will do to her game. Swaggy agreed with Kaysar, saying: "One. Thousand. Percent. Correct."
The fans are disappointed that Kaysar is now being criticized and made fun of for being Middle Eastern, for his early evictions in previous seasons, and even for trying to dismantle the current dominant alliance on Big Brother 22. Nonetheless, it is very possible that Bayleigh and Da'Vonne will indeed become the next targets for the big alliance following Kaysar's likely eviction.
Big Brother 22: All-Stars airs Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays at 8pm EST on CBS.
