It seems as though every season, Big Brother produces a villain (or three) so vile and loathsome, viewers can’t help but be consumed with frustration every time he or she appears on screen. Whether they’re spouting hateful language, indulging in self-pity, preening with self-righteousness, engaging in character assassination, or simply being awful, these people are sometimes so intolerable and irritating, it’s hard to imagine that they could have any fans at all.
Currently, the Most Terrible Person EVER is Natalie, the irritating pest who has annoyed America with her shrill voice, malicious scheming, and generally humorless presence (not to mention her aversion to such things as showers and general cleanliness). But is she really the worst Big Brother contestant ever? Let’s look back at some previous bastards and bitches and see who’s truly the bottom of the barrel.


DISCLAIMER: Okay, as much as I like to act like the biggest Big Brother fan out there, truth is that I didn’t start watching until season three; so any awful people in the first two seasons will have to be highlighted in the comments section. Anyway, let’s move on to the list.
Josh, season 3
Talk about weasel. I don’t remember too many things Josh did specifically in the house — just that he was gross and disgusting and seemed like a total sleaze. Every time he appeared on TV, you just wanted to look away. Luckily, Josh was out midway through the season before he could ascend to legendary Awful status, but he was certainly on the way. A later Playgirl spread did him no favors.
Allison, season 4
Allison pretty much ranks up there as one of the most obnoxious women to play the game. She lied, she cried, and she was generally awful for an entire season. Her only saving grace was that she at least seemed to be enjoying herself along the way. Still, Allison was a piece of work, and a later stint on The Amazing Race with boyfriend Donny proved that she was nothing less than a spoiled brat. However, I must confess that I wish she lasted a bit longer on All-Stars, just to see her screw with people. I guess that means she’s not the worst ever then, huh?
Jase, season 5
There’s narcissism, and then there’s Jase. Storming the house with guyliner, highlights, tank-tops, and more mandanas than you can imagine, Jase proved to be one of the most hateable cast members of all time right off the bat. It wasn’t so much the ridiculous primping he engaged in on a daily basis, but the smoldering spite he carried underneath. The guy had some internal rage that would come out when the cards were down for him. His attitude was reprehensible — as was his deluded notion that he was the star of the show. They don’t get much worse than Jase.
Eric a.k.a. Cappy, season 6
Eric only lasted about three weeks on Big Brother, but his presence has been epic. The guy stomped through the house with a self-righteous fireman attitude, and when he was caught in his lies, he flipped his lid in one of the most famous backyard brawls of all time. Everything about the guy sucked, and to this day, the mere mention of “Cappy” is enough to elicit groans from any Big Brother fan. Even worse was his lasting legacy:
The Friendship, season 6
Maggie, Ivette, Jen, Bo, and April. This was the five-headed, Cappy-loving beast that formed the most loathed alliance of all time. Thinking they were the “good” ones — despite their often hateful comments (Ivette was notoriously racist on the live feeds), they simply could not comprehend why America would repeatedly lavish gifts upon Janelle and Kaysar and all the “bad” people. Their self-righteousness as a group has been unparalleled, and the fact that their leader, Maggie, took home the big prize over Janelle still remains one of the biggest travesties in the game’s history.
Boogie, seasons 2 & 7
This is a tricky one for me. The full disclosure is that I’ve actually met and hung out with Boogie a few times, and in the capacity that I know him, he’s a nice guy. But on the show — he was pretty awful. Being aligned with Dr. Will, he earns a huge amount of bonus points, but he still came off as a major sleaze, and his treatment of Erika — his showmance during All Stars — was fairly deplorable. Plus, he bumped Janelle from the game, and anyone who does that automatically winds up in the hateable column.
Evel (sic) Dick, season 8
Some people absolutely love this guy. The rest of us — with taste — hate him. This guy burst onto the scene as a “hardcore” rocker — which apparently meant wearing a nasty Suicidal Tendencies shirt and Mom Jeans all summer long. Plus, he had a wallet chain. And no wallet. What on EARTH was connected to that chain? And what sort of rocker wears Mom Jeans anyway? Ones that are wannabes. Of course, Evel Dick won the whole damn show; so as much as I malign him, he’ll always have that to spit back at me, but it doesn’t matter. The guy was a jerk, and it wasn’t just strategy. He said hateful and offensive things to many of the cast members, coughed and spat all over the astroturf lawn (which, unlike real earth, does NOT absorb saliva), and maintained a cocky attitude the whole way. A cocky attitude, by the way, that was totally unfounded. The only reason he got as far as he did was because of the America’s Player twist, which conveniently kept him in the game when he would have otherwise been voted out. Was it really America’s will? Or the interference of sneaky producers? We’ll never know, but conspiracy theorists will always debate it.
Daniele, season 8
Daniele, Evel Dick’s estranged daughter, certainly didn’t do too many awful things, but oh did she whine. She whined and whined and whined, and when things didn’t go her way, she sniffled and pouted and whined some more. The epitome of a spoiled brat, Daniele made an art of declaring “It’s SOOOOO frustrating!” She certainly had more class than her father, but oh, she wasn’t much more entertaining to watch.
Crazy James, season 9
Like Evel Dick, Crazy James had some very ardent fans. But for those of us who don’t appreciate self-righteous, self-pitying idiots, we couldn’t stand him. The kid could certainly compete, but when he found himself in a tough place, he would play the victim card like none other. “You don’t know what I’ve been through” or “I’m all alone in the house!” or “I’m on an island” or just… crying — these were just some of the woe-is-me maneuvers he pulled on a constant basis. Plus, James committed the biggest sin of all: he complained ad nauseam about being stabbed in the back when he himself had stabbed many, if not the same people, in the back as well. Had this been merely a strategy, it would have been fine, but in the Diary Room interviews we could see he was genuinely peeved. Even worse, James had a lot of rage brewing under the surface, and never was that more evident than when he cornered Sheila in the backyard and screamed that she was a CUNT for no apparent reason. Not cool man. In the end, he was just a big petulant kid. Oh, and he really wasn’t THAT Crazy. He just wore a lot of pink.
Chelsia, season 9
Sharing a bed and various bodily fluids with James was Chelsia, a bitter, spiteful shrew with a very modern haircut. This girl relished other people’s misfortunes and wasn’t afraid to hit below the belt — such as the time when she ridiculed the suicide of cast member Amanda’s father. It doesn’t get more loathsome than that. I seem to also remember a drunken spree where she crushed some eggs or something like that, but really, it all comes back to the suicide thing. Pretty much one of the most tasteless incidents in the show’s history. And that says a lot.
Joshuah, season 9
Also proving to be a model of abhorrent behavior from season nine was Joshuah, the wannabe Southern gentleman who just couldn’t help but engage in angry, spite-fueled rants towards the women in the house. The guy was bitter beyond all means, and when he wasn’t calling the women cunts or regaling house guests with stories of snorting cocaine out of guys’ asses, he was meandering about the house acting so “over-it” all the time. The best, however, was watching him on the live shows when he’d attempt to be the perfect gentleman — good posture, fake smile, and awkwardly polite responses to Julie. He was a disaster.
Jessie, season 10
In season ten, Jessie the cocky bodybuilder was insufferable. He moped around the house for three weeks, stirred up trouble where he could, and generally acted as if everyone owed him some sort of apology for something or another. The kid was totally dense, and his utter lack of logic when trying to defend himself made you just want to reach through the TV and shake him. He proved to be less annoying when he returned in season eleven, but still, we’ll always remember his first time in the house.
Ronnie, season 11
Ronnie thought he was so clever and shrewd — the second coming of Dr. Will. The only problem was that he wasn’t clever, and he wasn’t shrewd. Plus, he wasn’t very likable either. He immediately screwed over his Brains alliance in week one by pitting Michele against Chima, and then he lied repeatedly to members of the house for really no good reason. Lying is one thing, but doing it so awkwardly — that’s another. Ronnie was just so bad at scheming, and yet he bragged about how good he was. The guy came off as a weasel, and the fact that he called Michele the worst person he’d ever met because she didn’t save him from eviction (when he in fact had screwed her over royally the first week; so she really didn’t owe him anything) was pretty detestable.
Chima, season 11
Chima was just a bitch. Plus, she laughed at all her own bad jokes. More importantly, this diva thought the game revolved around her, and when the producers finally decided enough was enough, they gave her the boot. But really, there’s just not much to say about Chima except she was just a raging, raging bitch.
Natalie, season 11
Humorless, annoying, irritating, shrill, lacking self-awareness. These are just some of the many descriptors for Natalie from season eleven. Her lightest offenses: she doesn’t shower. And she brushes her nail clippings onto the floor (instead of the garbage). And she scrapes the dead skin from her feet into the hot tub. If it were just that, Natalie would merely be gross. But there’s so much more. She lies all the time, and she lies for no reason. She lies to hurt people’s reputations. She lies to cheat at pool. She lies just for the sake of lying. Some people can lie, and it’s great to watch — there’s a playfulness about it, a wink at the audience. Not with Natalie. Her lies don’t feel playful and strategic, but rather malicious and cruel. And yet through it all, Natalie claims she’s kept her word and has played with Christian values. Of course, she has no word, and her Christian values are suspect. There’s something about her cockiness and total lack of charisma that just makes her despicable. Other players have certainly done more vile things than Natalie, but it’s hard to argue that any have been more annoying.
So now, after looking at the list, who’s the worst? And who has been omitted?

  2. Hmph- there is a long list of people I hate on BB, but I would have to say that my absolute worst would be a tie between Evel Dick (fucking LOSER!), and Chima. I agree that Natalie is annoying, and definitely up there with the worst of them, but she’s got nothin’ on these assholes ( Not to mention, The Friendship… what a pathetic bunch that was).
    But I can’t believe you have Jesse on this list! How could anyone hate that dopey, narcissistic, lug head? Especially after he made the appearance in the hot pink spandex? Jesse was so fun to ridicule, that he now actually holds a spot on my top ten favorite BB contestants ever.

  3. NATLIES IS THE WORST PLAYER TO BE ON BIG BROTHER. HER CONSTANT LIES BEFRIENDING A FRIEND.AND CUSSING IS THE WORSE. SHE IS JUST PLAIN GROSS !!!!!!!!!!!!
    BETTY

  5. I would add Eric from BB8 on that list as well as Dr Will(everyone hated him at first but we all did a 180 the last few weeks) from Season 2 and Will Mega from season 1

  6. It’s a toss up for me between the uberbitch Chima and the vile, repulsive, despicable Natalie Martinez. Take your pick.

  7. Hmmm, I go with Natalie. Evel Dick was a good player, and most of the rest were either just annoying or scumbags, but not both. Natalie has so many bad aspects to her, that it’s amazing she made it this far. People must have been figuring she’d never win because everyone hates her. And now that her lies are catching up to her, she isn’t going to win (we all hope).

  8. I’ve watched all 11 seasons. Natalie by far is the worst of the worst. She showed what kind of person she is outside the house. What I can’t figure out is WHY her bf proposed to her. He must be just like her. Why else would he want to spend the rest of his life with someone like her.

  9. For me it is Booger.
    If it wasn’t for Dr. Will he would not have made it as far as he did — in the game and out. He was sleaze personified and what he did to Erika was so willfully cruel.”Plus, he bumped Janelle from the game, and anyone who does that automatically winds up in the hateable column” – agreed.
    (plus I believe edhill & sg-dub were poisoned by his restaurant)
    NataLIE is a pig but she talks a way bigger game than she can play.
    hb

  11. I’m shocked danielle bb3 wasn’t mentioned. I could not stand her!! I will always love when will kept Janelle locked in the hoh room all night to keep Danielle away from her. Watching her ring the doorbell in her drunken glory was hysterical

  12. Seriously? No mention of Jerry yet!? For someone with one foot already in the grave, and a wife practically already in one, he had a lot of balls to be THAT despicable. His raspy nails-on-a-chalkboard voice, self-righteousness and his “Judas” spiel made me want to punt him into oncoming traffic.

  13. My vote goes to NataLIE. Not a sense of integrity or honor in her soul. She is the most repugnant, vile and wicked person to have played the game.
    Absolutely the most pitiful and grossest player in BB history.

  15. How has everyone forgot “Team Christ” from season 9 Adam was a disgusting pig and Natalie was a hypocritical cry baby.

  16. Matt from Season 9 was a real sleaze bag. Regardless of how pathetic Natalie was, the way he treated her was vile.

  17. Oh man….talk about a trip down “Bad Memory Lane”
    damn it’s so hard to say. Evil Dick, Allison, The Friendship, Boogie and Danielle Donato are all pretty bad.
    Jase was a jerk, but when he came back for All-Stars he was pretty cool. Same with Jessie.
    But if I had to chose one, I’d have to say Evil Dick pretty much ruined Big Brother for me. I have not fully recovered from that. And, from the looks of this season I will most likely have several strokes when it’s all said and done.

  18. Natalie wins the distinction for being the worst BB house guest ever, and I’m sure she’ll continue to hold this crown even when future seasons will air.
    There were some huge contenders before her, but the others are pale in comparison to her behaviour of this season.
    REALITY will check in when she steps out into the real world and realizes how much she’s despised.
    Her boyfriend’s proposal? Seem staged by the producers to soften her character a bit, as it DIDN’T seem genuine.
    Also, this will be the MOST DISAPPOINTING FINALE in history with Kevin and Natalie in the FINAL TWO.

  22. Um the above poster is clearly crazy, alison was a horrible player, I hated her. She should be on this list

  24. How could you have Jessie on this list? Jessie is so much fun to laugh at that he was main the reason that all of my friends and I watched the show all season long. He’s UNBELIEVABLE. But, a helluva lot of fun to watch! Quite a character. Jessie is DA BEST. Natalie, now she’s a different story…LOL

  25. I totally agree with your list minus one exception: Jerry. How could you leave him off that list!? I couldn’t stand Jessie in BB10, but in my mind, Jerry was a lot worse. At least Jessie was somewhat funny in picking pointless fights and him being totally into himself, but Jerry was just outright awful! He repeatedly called one of my personal favorites Dan “Judas” multiple times and really didn’t bring any redeeming qualities to the show, minus his age.

  26. UM. ITS OBVIOUSLY CLEAR THAT DANIELE DONATO IS THE WORST PLAYER OF ALL TIME. I SERIOUSLY HATE THAT HO. FOR REALZ.
    P.S – MEMPHIS R0X

  27. I have to agree about Natalie, although Allison and Booger are my top two most-hated players of all time. Even the thought of them now raises bile in my throat.

  30. Daniele (BB8), Chelsia, and Natalie from BB9 are deffo the top of the list for me. Why isn’t Jordo on this list? She seriously has no strengths except for eating cookie dough. Give me a break.

  31. Gnat-a-lie is the absolute worst alien bug i have ever seen on BB. she and her family should be ashamed of her vial behavior. some of the things she has done would have landed her in jail outside the BB house. cbs layed down the law with chia pet and should have done the same with this bitch. it boggles one’s mind that a 24 yr old acts the way she did. just shows how her daddy raised her. i hope she does not win, it would be another example that bad behavior pays. i can only hope she ends up in prison soon, where her lying, cheating and stealing, (along with trying to cause bodily harm to another), will get her what she really deserves.

  32. Evil Dick. Power hungry abusive White misogynist guy trumps everything. No question.
    It’s very telling to see how well AmeriKKKa has learned to hate all the “right” people for all the “right” reasons. Big Brother (tv’s) 3 month hate has taught them well. The “massess” behave as Big Brother intended and demonize people of color and hate them for all the reasons they were trained to hate them for. They obediently despise the dozens of Emmaual Goldbergs created for them by ‘reality’ tv.
    Orwell rolls in his grave.

  34. How could you leave out Josh from Season 9? But when thinking about it, you could really put anyone from Season 9 on this list and no one would argue with you.
    With that said, these a-holes are the reason we watch the show. I try to tell everyone in the Feed Chat Rooms this but they dont get it. They think the house should be full of Jeff’s and Jordan’s and the show would be awesome. Believe me, it wouldnt be. It would be boring as hell.

  35. Matt – you’re right. We do need the villains, as much as we hate them. I almost included Joshua on this list, buuut for some reason I didn’t. He just barely skated by!

  36. Does anyone not remember Jennifer from season 6? She was the one who was in the endurance competition with Kaysar and they were there for 15 hours! She promised that she wouldn’t put him up if he gave her the HOH. 15 hours holding a button! He agreed and she nominated him and he was evicted. That was horrible! Kaysar shouldn’t have believed her but he stood there for 15 hours and then got stabbed in the back. Terrible.
    I also don’t like Natalie. She is such a liar. I don’t mind as much if they admit they lie, but she doesn’t admit it, even in the DR. It is very weird and I hope to God she doesn’t win. It would be Maggie all over again..another one that upset me so much.

  37. I think you got them all, even some I wouldn’t have included. I wouldn’t have considered Josh (BB3) or Maggie (BB6), or even Daniele (BB8).
    Natalie though is by far the absolute worst of all of them and you hit the nail on the head, she lies just to lie and the problem is she believes it.

  38. I think Jordan is very likable. And she has won an HOH and a POV. Whether or not she could have won the HOH without Jeff is argumentative. There is no way of proving it, so we’ll never know. However, she has landed herself in the top three, so she is doing something right.
    Yes, she seems to have lost faith and verve since Jeff has been gone, but she is our only hope, so I will continue to back her.

  39. I actually made myself a list yesterday. I don’t know if I would have added Boogie or Dick — they actually played great games and had some charisma and/or personability to back it up. You completely missed…
    April (Season 10) – Miss ‘I’m the 2nd coming of everything’ — remember her walking around saying Keesha shouldn’t eat cereal because she was “fat” ??!! Oh, and the rampant sex on camera wasn’t appalling either…
    Jen (Season 8) – The rules wouldn’t pertain to her – ever. She’s just a vapid human being.
    Jen (Season 9) – Attention-seeking bitch…. my whole family went “UGH” the night of the finale when she almost flashed the audience w/ her short skirt as she kissed her lame-o bf Ryan
    Jerry (Season 10) – Confirms my belief that even older people don’t have a right to be mean – just because they’re old.

  40. Natalie has went straight to the top of my hate list, she has usurped Chatty Natty(just typing that made my eye twitch), who usurped the turd herd(they are just one crappy collective unit to me too). Nat (bb9) should be on that list, she was unbearable for me, and amber (bb8) should get an honorable mention. lol

  41. Wow…great list. I only started watching in Season 6 and I must say you chose exactly the ones that truly made it painful for me to watch the show. My personal top 4 are Evil Dick (S8), Gnatalie (S11), Crazy James and Chelsia (S9). It is sometimes hard to believe that there are actually real people in the world that would act the way many of these houseguests act. I don’t think it is the show that does it to them…I think that many are as unlikeable in the real world as they appear to us in the house.

  42. From a game play standpoint – Reality TV Hall of Shame inductee Marcellas Reynolds. How can he win the veto and not use it on himself?

  43. Wow…great list. I only started watching in Season 6 and I must say you chose exactly the ones that truly made it painful for me to watch the show. My personal top 4 are Evil Dick (S8), Gnatalie (S11), Crazy James and Chelsia (S9).

I don’t think it is the show that does it to them…I think that many are as unlikeable in the real world as they appear to us in the house.

  44. We need villains that make us want to continue watching the game because they are so ‘bad’ they are good (entertainment). Now Natalie, on the other hand, makes me want to give up on this show. Villains (a-holes) of the past had at least some sense of self-awareness. Natalie has none, zip, zero….and THAT is why she is the worst.

  45. You know, I think the problem with Jerry is that most people who only watched the show didn’t see what a jackass he was. Those that watched the feeds, however, know it’s a different story. What a womanizing, disgusting, mean-spirited racist. Ugh.
    Natalie is still worse, though.
    Oh, and I looooved James’ game. He did a lot of annoying stuff but it was mostly strategy. Natalie can’t say the same. She has no game. She’s lucky to be in the position she’s in and it was not strategy that got her there. The most annoying part is that she thinks she’s there because she actually had a hand in her own fate… she thinks she deserves to be there. It’s sickening.

  47. When people are so hated in the house, do they ever comment about this later? I would love to know how they react.

  48. I can’t believe nobody has mentioned Season 1’s Will Mega. Obnoxious, racist, and an all-around jerk. He has the dubious honor of being the very first person ever evicted from US Big Brother.

  49. Mostly, really great list. Although I’m VERY surprised you left out Eric of BB8 out from the list..He definitely should of been first for season 8 with his incestuous and child molester comments, as well as his overall despicable and ratty behavior. Most of his behavior was even worse than Dick’s. At least Dick said it to people’s faces.
    Amber from BB8 should’ve also been on that list as well. These two were way worse than Dick and Dani.
    I’m definitely voting for Natalie has the worst of all time. Nobody has never annoyed me as much as her, except maybe Eric. It’s a tie between Eric and Natalie for me..
    Marcellas should’ve been on the list too, from his first season. I liked him but the guy didn’t use the veto on himself, that’s pretty f’d up.

  50. I never thought I could hate a houseguest more than Boogie, but Natalie is the worst ever because she lies just to hear herself lie, with no strategy behind it, and also because she will not shut up and the sound of her voice is like nails on a blackboard times a thousand. As much as I didn’t like Evel Dick during his season, he was at least entertaining, unlike the current group. I’d give anything to have seen him enter the house this season about week six and call these idiots out on their game play (and hygiene).
