NOH8Campaign Via Twitter: right now @chimasimone is on her way to the studio. #NOH8 #changetheworld #BB11
The NOH8 campaign is about to ruin their image by using a known racist in one of their next ad campaigns. Chima Simone the horrible and vile racist who was evicted by the producers of Big Brother for violating the rules of the game, is set to take pictures for a NOH8 ad.
The NOH8 campaign was launched after the passing of Prop. 8 in California. It is a massive effort to end hatred and bigotry in all forms.
Why does it matter if NOH8 uses Chima Simone?
I should start first which Chima's eviction speech in during the first eviction ceremony of the 11th season of Big Brother. A contestant named Braden Bacha who was the first to be evicted, burst out in a racist attack on Kevin and Lydia during an argument in the back yard of the Big Brother house. Braden called Kevin who is of Japanese and African American decent, "Beaner" and other racial stereotypes relating to Mexicans.
So at the first eviction this was Chima's speech.
Chima, a short time later, has a major fight and blow out with Russell. Someone with whom she flirted with and hung all over incessantly in the Big Brother House. Apparently a jealous tiff happened between the two during one of the competitions. She flirted and he flirted with other people behind the scenes. Then all hell broke loose in the house. Chima and Russell are both stubborn and loud mouths in the house. Both antagonistic, both strong willed, and both will not back down when cornered. Once they began to fight, Chima a crossed a line in which she couldn't walk back. She began to call Russell who is of Lebanese decent, a terrorist. And when she first said it, she said "Fuck it, it's out there. I said it." She even had Lydia, the Big Brother resident bi-polar manic depressive whom admitted on the show to cutting herself and was a having frequent mood issues, to join in with her in calling Russell a terrorist.
This is a clip of Chima and Lydia calling Russell a terrorist right before Chima was evicted. Saying the twin towers remark, and that she wasn't sorry for the things she has said to Russell.
CBS edited Chima on their regular Big Brother network show as though she were calling Russell a terrorist because he was terrorizing the house. There was a moment on the live feeds which sadly I do not have on tape because I am not technical at all and the Superpass Real Player FlashBack feature has not worked for me all summer, where Kevin asked Chima to stop calling Russell a Terrorist because she said it 50 millions times already and he said it's wrong for her to do that. Chima said to Kevin that she would spin it in a way that made it like she was saying he was terrorizing the house. So at this moment we know Chima does in fact mean her attacks on Russell in a racial way and clearly knows it's wrong and has a plan to cover her tracks instead of saying sorry. Naturally this was the new lie she stuck to and CBS tried to edit her that way as seen in the below clip taken from the edited show. Skip to the 2:50 mark. CBS never showed Braden's racist "Beaner" remarks but no one denies it happened after Chima's bullshit speech about Braden during the first evictions. But Shamefully CBS actually tried to cover it up for Chima.
Chima has also called Russell "Osama," said she "would win the game over Russell because America hates terrorists," called herself the twin towers, and told Michele (another house guest) while in the HOH room that she DID mean it in a racial way. Michele later confided in Russell about that. Jesse, another loser house guest from Big Brother also participated in the racism. While drinking in the HOH (Head of Household room), he laughed and made jokes with Chima about Russell being a terrorist too. She has made numerous comments about white people and blonde women. She threw around the word misogynist left and right, yet she was the most hateful person in the house not just to all of the HG's but to the women especially calling them whores and bitches. She said about Lydia that Lydia "would suck the current HOH's dick if it kept her in the game" and called her a whore and laughed about it. Then said it was okay for her to say that because she was joking. She only issued a half assed apology to Lydia because she was tired of arguing that she was justified in calling Lydia a whore because she was joking. She then immediately went behind Lydia's back and laughed about how she called Lydia a whore right to her face with Natalie and Jesse, other big Brother House Guests.
When Chima was booted from the Big Brother house and realized that there was a real backlash against her character, her PR team quickly had her issue this statement:
Upon
recently leaving the Big Brother show this season I have been privy to
many judgments and criticisms made of every aspect of my being ranging
from things as trivial as my appearance to more egregious comments
referring to me as a racist.
As a woman of color, I have experienced racism first hand. I know what
it is to be discriminated against so I would never want to inflict that
pain onto someone else. I will, however, always stand up for myself.
Many of you perceive my resolute candor objectionable, but I have
always been outspoken and will remain so. I will never apologize for my
looks, personality, or straightforwardness.
Nonetheless, I am particularly sorry that my words disparaged
the regard and respect that should be shown to all cultures, especially
the Middle Eastern community in this time of great turmoil within our
nations. In describing Russell’s abusive, bullying, and threatening
actions towards me and other houseguests, I referred to him as a
terrorist. I used a phrase that was insensitive given his Middle
Eastern descent and I apologize to all who are justifiably offended
with my use of that racially charged term.
My sentiments concerning his behavior, however, remain intact. I do not
agree with his antagonistic rampages throughout the house. Russell
constantly demoralized many of us on a consistent basis and his conduct
was alarming, daunting, and terrifying.
Fortunately, for me, I do not have to be subjected to those tirades
anymore. I am going on with my life in the real world. I wish the
remaining BB housemates the best of luck!
Best,
Chima Simone

"In describing Russell’s abusive, bullying, and threatening actions towards me and other houseguests, I referred to him as a terrorist."
That part is the lie that she continues to spin and perpetuate which is why we should not accept any form of apology until she comes correct about what she really meant. Forgive her when she is ready to admit she lied. Everything else until then is Buhhhshit. (Buhhhshit with 3 h's was Chima's favorite word on Big Brother. "That's sum Buhhhshit! And of course calling Russell Mutherrrr Fuckerrrr! 4 r's in each word. I mean you really have to emphasize that "r" good.)
This is the very reason I used the image of Isaiah Washington in his NOH8 Campaign photos. Isaiah Washington meant it when he said sorry for the things he said against gay people. He apologized a lot and especially to T.R. Knight whom was the target of Washington's homophobic remark. He also went through anger management classes. He took steps to better his life and continues to lead a positive example of learning from his mistake. I believe that people make mistakes and are allowed or should be allowed to make amends for them. Lord knows I am full of my own mistakes. It's what you do after you make a mistake that shows the real content of your character.
Chima however, lied in her apology and therefore is not sorry. She isn't changing or willing to change. The proof is on the feeds where she tells Kevin just how she will spin this whole mess. Also where she tells Michele she meant it racially, and the numerous times she made cheap cracks at white people. Calling all of the south ignorant. How not all white people are bad because they voted for Obama.
Worst of all was Chima threatening to use her rape as a ploy against Russell. Chima was a survivor of a vicious attack and raped by a man known as The Bathtub killer. In a sad and true story she was attacked and raped by a serial killer and managed to fight back and get away. Her survival was the key in catching the killer. He was later put to death in the state of Texas.
During her mental breakdown on Big Brother, she threatened that if the producers did not get rid of Russell, she would say she doesn't feel safe with Russell in the house, and would force the producers to get rid of him. She said "they can't say shit to me about it."
She also threw water on Russell and threatened to spit on him in order to get him to hit her so he could be thrown out. What kind of sick person wants a trained cage fighter to hit her over some game? Yes Russell is apparently a Mixed Martial arts fighter.
She never said sorry for any of that either. Even if she is a rape victim herself, the threats of using her rape to unfairly oust a player in the game was disgusting and a horrible slap in the face to other rape victims and survivors out there. It would be one thing if she said it just fucking around or as game play banter (as sick as that might be), but she meant these things and threatened the producers of Big Brother with these actions on a regular basis.
This is the kind of person the NOH8 campaign is proud to showcase on their ad campaign. It's a sad day for equality. Yes Chima has a right to free speech. I was all for Chima continuing to spew her vile racism, because I knew once she got out in the real world again she would have to face the consequences for her words and actions. Not be celebrated by an organization who works to end hate.
I think it is also very important to know that there is a difference between shit talk, gossip, and pure hate. I myself am plenty guilty of vile shit talk and trashy gossip. But do not mistake my foul mouth with the same kind of hate Chima Simone has disgustingly fueled on Big Brother.
I am a woman who regularly calls other women cunts, bitches, and when there is a cheap whore around, I point that out too. But I do the same thing to men too. I have a bad habit of not letting anyone get away with their bullshit if they deserve it. There are a lot of stories, celebrities and people I find ridiculous. I am just not a big supporter of people in general.
I am not a journalist I am just a shit talking blogger. I am a terrible writer with abhorrent grammar and zero shame. Most of you might find that unsavory. And that's okay, but with the exception of a few cases, nothing I ever write about or talk shit about is ever done with real malice or contempt. For gods sake I have a massive pair of tits in my blog header. How can anything be taken too seriously or contemptuous with that?
I must confess though, the very worst thing I have ever said was I wished Chima never got away from her attacker. After watching her disgusting behavior I was fed up with her hateful ways. But there is no excuse for that. I was truly sorry I said it too. I might hate her vile ways, but I don't really ever wish for anyone to be hurt.
Okay that's a lie. I wished for Micheal Vick to suffer a career ending blow like Joe Theismann. But he is disgusting animal killer and I feel no shame for wishing him ill will or people like him who senselessly hurt animals.
The point is, I am just being honest with myself. There is shit talk, there is trashy gossip, and regular haterade. But there is no excuse for racism and pure hatred. And using your rape as a cheap tactic to get your way when things don't go your way on a fucking reality show.
I really didn't want to talk about Chima anymore. We made fun of her on twitter and had good laughs at her melt downs. I know a lot of you are thinking "why do you keep bringing this bitch up?" Again I was cool with letting her fade into loser obscurity, but her name has reignited controversy with this NOH8 ad. I can't tell what their motivation is. Cheap publicity? Do they really believe Chima was unfairly edited by CBS when in fact CBS covered up how vile she really was? Did they honestly buy that cheap ass apology based on more lies? Are they really just naive and easily ready to forgive at the drop of a dime?
Whatever their reasons are, it stinks. They have now cheapened their cause to garnish a little bit of press. I know most of you don't let the small shit bother you. And I know most people are quick to forgive and move on. That is okay too.
All I am asking is that NOH8 chickety-check themselves before they wreck themselves with an unapologetic racist like Chima. Is this really the kind of person they wish to make an example out of as a changed person? Someone who willfully lied in their apology. Someone so full of actual and real hatred for just about everyone and everything? Someone who on a daily basis said something racial or vile or full of hate? You don't lose that kind of hate over night and with one fake NOH8 ad. Fake from Chima that is.
Ask any real Big Brother fan who has been watching from the beginning and they will tell you it is true that Chima is in fact a hateful racist and that she is not sorry. She has maybe 2 fans out there who will tell you differently. But I guess family is supposed to stick up for you aren't they?
I wore out my twitter with Chima Haterade that's why I was hoping this bitch's 15 minutes were up already. I have no shame in admitting that I definitely helped perpetuate the awesome hashtag on twitter #ChimasWeave. If I have said it once, I will say it 1000 times. Chima's weave was the real star of Big Brother! And a good portion of you all participated in the #ChimasWeave song game.
My Twitter Buddies filling me on some key Live Feed Flash Back dates and times.
jakejonasmom: Cam1 -10:11-10:16pm 8/13 - twin towers, terrorist & white trash. #BB11 - during Jessie's funeral
attwx: 8/3 - 11:10 pm - F1 - chima bashes russell's family and calls russell a terrorist
jakejonasmom: I can't record but on camera 1 on 8/14 at 12:09 is the extremist muslim terrorist comments\. also says that Jeff hates women.
(Every man who doesn't pay Chima attention or denies her advances is a misogynist who hates women. She has hated on Jeff since day one when Jeff showed interest in Jordan, a very cute blonde who is completely innocent in nature and has stood by Jeff through all the drama and BS of this game, over Chima. That is my own suspicion about Chima and Jeff. But there has been many awful things she has said about Jeff and Jordan, particularly blondes that she simply had no justifiable reason to say.)
attwx: there was one very early in the season about white girls being nasty and dirty when natalie was getting a wart on her foot
Thanks to Twitter users kshae, ihatebigbrother, rosclark7, growlt, stb71 for also pointing out for me some of the video links and key moments with Chima.
I will continue to update this post as more of Chima footage or times and dates from the feeds are brought to my attention.
UPDATE: Chima Makes Reality TV Hall of Shame. They basically say everything I say but without all the swear words.
And Chima continues to lie about her meaning of the word Terrorist only this time to People. I am not quite sure why People would even bother to publish her statement without a follow up to prove she is lying. It's all out there and she continues to lie.




Nice post, I wish I could link to it from my blog, but Real.com frowns on linking to pages that have videos, and since I advertise them, I cannot.
Good stuff though, hopefully some of the bigger blogs pick it up.
She is one of the most fowl players in the history of this show.

Hi, I'm a gay man who runs a Big Brother blog. One of my BB twitter followers pointed me to your blog article above. Very well said. A bit harsh at times, but that what makes it interesting. I copied, pasted, and linked the article on my BB blog.
If you check the tags in the sidebar on my blog, and click on Chima's name, we've posted a couple of her hypocritical, two-faced comments about people.
Thanks!
