331: Big Brother 28 Exit Interview: Chuk Anyanwu on Kamu's 'Biggest Red Flag Ever'

The Exclusive With Sharon Tharp

Show Notes

Chuk Anyanwu joins The Exclusive fresh off a 9-1 eviction from Big Brother 28 — with only Haley Thogmartin voting to keep him — and he doesn't hold back on the ally he says ended his game: Kamu Kirk. Chuk breaks down the moment Kamu refused to use the veto on him ("that was the biggest red flag ever"), who he believes walked into LaTrice "Lala" Verrett's room and flipped the house, and why he refused to campaign even as Taylor Brown pushed him to fight. Plus: why he'd have backdoored Kamu with the HOH, and the flowers he's still willing to give Lala.
