Big Brother season 26: Tucker uses Quinn’s avatar to target Rubina
In Big Brother, season 26 episode 19, an AI-generated avatar of Quinn asked the cast to gather in the living room. Meanwhile, in a confessional, Tucker told America that they had chosen the correct person for the role. He said he was a “jokester” and loved pranks and that he had “lots of mischievous thoughts.”Before Quinn’s avatar started speaking, Tucker told the cameras he wanted to “clear the air” about him and Rubina to put the rumors to rest. As the cast gathered, the Big Brother season 26 avatar said:
“The other night I saw Tucker and Rubina holding hands. We should have gotten Rubina out when we had the chance because we know mentally Tucker wouldn’t be able to handle it without her. Can you say ‘Showmance?’ Pentagon for life”
The Big Brother season 26 cast was confused by the message and Chelsie told the cameras she was trying to figure out what was happening. She wondered if someone got an “upgrade” and had an “advantage.”
Rubina questioned Quinn about what the avatar said, and the latter said it did sound like something he would say. Makensy wondered if there was another power at play while Angela stated she couldn’t “take it anymore.”The avatar’s statement upset Rubina and she wondered why she was being targeted. She stated she hadn’t done anything and wasn’t a “threat to anyone’s game.”Fans of the show took to social media to chime in on the situation and were “not mad” that Tucker was the AI Instigator. They commented on his comments about Rubina and called it “crazy.”Big Brother season 26 airs episodes on Sundays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays on CBS.
