More Big Brother 28 drama hit social media this week.
LaTrice Verrett (Lala) caused a stir when she teased that Melody Morris and Barrett Pfeiffer hooked up in the BB28 jury house.
It led to lots of social media buzz, which was likely the intent, and a response from Melody herself.
Many social media users doubt Lala’s tease as she went into full denial mode.
Lala alludes to Melody and Barrett hooking up in Big Brother jury house
During a live session with fellow BB28 houseguest Taylor Brown, a fan asked Lala to share her thoughts on Melody and Barrett allegedly hooking up.
Taylor jumps in with “that ain’t true” while Lala gives the camera a sly look. Many people took it as Lala showing Taylor that she had some juicy gossip. She pushes that narrative some more by telling Taylor she needs to share the gossip with her offline after spending time with Melody and Barrett in the jury house.
A firestorm of comments and responses hit social media.
Later, Melody popped on Instagram and left a quick note. It has since been deleted, but she made her thoughts very clear.
“Imagine caring about someone else’s sex life you all are actually weird,” she wrote. “No I did not ‘hook up’ with Barrett. Get a life, a hobby, something!!!!!!!”
Lala responded to a Big Brother fan on social media, claiming she never confirmed anything.
“Actually, I did not confirm anything…That was a stretch,” she wrote.
But she did not address what she alluded to in her video.
Some fans feel Lala used Melody and Barrett as a distraction because of earlier comments made in the live session.
“Lala knew that when the live ended that all of the discourse was going to be about Taylor so she dropped the high IQ move of mentioning Melody and Barrett at the end to get the heat off of her,” one fan wrote.
BB legend Jun Song even responded.
“I feel like I need to loan Lala my Messy Queen crown for the weekend. #BB28,” she wrote.
Stay tuned for more updates on the drama.
