Producers Say That Omarosa’s Impact On ‘Big Brother’ Is Surprising
Already, Omarosa Manigault has made a huge I’m pact on houseguests at Celebrity Big Brother. Entertainment Weekly asked producers about the hiring and how it’s impacted the house.
“Oh you know, she was available,” executive producer Allison Grodner said.
On the reaction from cast members, Grodner says, “I would say it’s surprising. There is no doubt she was polarizing, judging by the reaction to her walking in. Remember we sequestered everyone so they had no idea of the cast. They did not know until they stood on that stage. Certainly the biggest reaction was to Omarosa. But I will tell you this…she’s smart. And she knows her reputation going into this house. She also happens to be a Big Brother superfan. And she is playing to win. It will be surprising to people.”
