Big Brother housemate turns psyhcotic!!
*** 'Big Brother' contestant kicked out
NEW YORK (AP) - A contestant on "Big Brother" was
evicted from the
house Wednesday because he held a knife to a fellow player's
throat.
The contestant, a 26-year-old bartender named Justin from
Bayonne,
N.J., was asked to leave after the incident and a three-hour
discussion with a psychologist. The CBS reality show, which
premiered last week to mediocre ratings, gathers 12 strangers to
live together for three months in a California house wired for
sound
and pictures. The one person who avoids getting voted out by
fellow
contestants wins a $500,000 prize. Shortly after midnight, Justin
was talking and kissing in the kitchen with Krista, a 28-year-old
waitress from Opelousas, La. Without warning, he grabbed a knife,
held it to her neck and said, "Hang on, I'm going to slash
your
throat. Would you get mad if I just killed you?" according
to CBS.
Krista wasn't threatened and Justin later insisted he was only
joking, said Arnold Shapiro, the show's executive producer.
