Watch: Out 'Big Brother' Player Uses Racial Slur on Live Feeds, Twitter Reacts
READ TIME: 2 MIN.
"Big Brother" 20 contestant JC Mounduix is coming under fire this week after using a racial slur when speaking to other houseguests that was caught on the show's 24/7 live feeds, according to a report from Us Weekly and other report from TMZ.
The incident took place Tuesday while Mounduix, an openly gay dancer residing in West Hollywood, was speaking with fellow contestant Bayleigh Dayton, a 25-year-old flight attendant. During their conversation, Mounduix and Dayton discussed his height - Mounduix stands at 4-foot-8-inches tall. Dayton asked if he identifies if he's a dwarf.
"I'm just a short guy. Literally, like, I even went to a doctor," he reportedly started to say before Dayton caught him off.
"OK, let me ask you this: Is there a difference between a midget and a dwarf?" she asked.
Mounduix tried to explain "midget" is a pejorative term, linking the word to other slurs. He said it's similar to saying "gay," and "faggot" or like the n-word and "black."
Dayton, who is black, was visibly upset but Mounduix saying the racial slur, "You" re="" not="" allowed="" to="" say="" that,"="" she="" said,="" shaking="" her="" head.="" "Don't="" do="" that="" again.="" That="" was,="" like,="" out="" of="" control."
Mounduix then attempted to explain he was trying to compare slurs.
"No, you can't do that," Dayton said.
A number of "Big Brother" fans took issue with Mounduix on Twitter, too.
This isn't the first time Mounduix caused controversy in the "Big Brother" house. Earlier this month, some fans accused him of assault after he was spotted on the live feeds attempting to place an ice cream scooper on the private parts of some houseguests.
Mounduix isn't the only houseguest to make headlines this season, either. TMZ reported earlier this month "Big Brother" players Rachel Swindler and Angela Rummans were seen on the live feeds tanning. Swindler was heard saying her stomach was getting dark as Dayton. Rummans added, "I know. I'm looking ghetto here with the skin coloration." Read more about that by clicking here.
