BIG Brother stars Ali savagely branded Khaled “false” in a shock showdown on tonight’s episode.
In the bathroom, Izaaz and Ali discussed Khaled as she questioned his authenticity.
Izaaz mentioned to Ali that she may want to chat with him as he mentioned an interaction between him and Ali earlier in the evening.
Ali decided to confront Khaled upstairs and try to get her concerns off her chest.
Ali said: “I heard you thought that we thought there was a vibe up here.”
Khaled responded: “It just seemed, like no one wanted to say hi, some people seemed emotional [trails off]…”
Ali went on: “You know what it is Khaled… I think you’re a nice boy.
“But I find, sometimes the interactions I find false and I find that very, very difficult because then I don’t wanna engage with it because I don’t wanna play into, like I don’t wanna be fake with you. A
“nd I don’t wanna be shaking your hand and hugging you when inside I’m thinking I just don’t buy it.”
Ali continued by noting that Khaled seemed to lack empathy during the eviction by yawning and acting bored during a stressful situation.
Khaled responded: “I wasn’t the only one, but yes.”
Referring to an earlier conversation, Ali said, “There’s no need for these long speeches about how you want check in on us and make sure we’re okay. It’s not authentic…”
Ali said: “I don’t hate you; I don’t dislike you. All of the good things I’ve said about you are true, but I think some of your interactions are false.”
Many fans were shocked by Ali’s cruel putdown.
One wrote: “I hope Khalid can instantly evict Ali.. let’s get the bullies out early this year.”
A second posted: “Ali is trying to use her degree to belittle and indirectly bully Khaled … cute.”
A third said: “Ali is so fake, can tell she was the high school bully.”
“REVOKE ALIS THERAPIST LICENSE, she’s literally being a bully right now,” a fourth said.
Another added: “Ali is gaslighting Khaled is INSANE, she’s lying to his face. SHE IS BEING FAKE ITS A GAMESHOW AND PEOPLE ARE ACTING LIKE PLAYING IT IS WRONG. ALI IS A BULLY IM NOT HAVING THIS AND IZAZ IS A FAKE FRIEND.”
It comes after Ali admitted she thought Khaled was “fake”.
Khaled was rewarded with immunity and became head of the house following the challenge tonight.
Ali told some of the group: “Can I just say, keep your inside thoughts inside Ali. Keep them inside.”
Lily piped up and said: “I’ll say it. I think Khaled is fake.”
Ali agreed and echoed: “I think Khaled is fake as well.”
Lily went on: “I think everyone in here doesn’t see it except for me.”
Forensic psychologist Ali explained: “So, he’s worried about being perceived in a certain way.
“He doesn’t feel terrible. He wants to look like he feels terrible.”
He’s impression managing, he’s worried about being percieved in a certain way, he constantly will present himself as the nice guy
“He doesn’t want to look like he’s revelling in a party because that will make him not look like a nice guy.”
Her comments stunned Rosie aka ‘Baked Potato’ and Izaaz .
It also surprised fans who have leaped to Khaled’s defence and are convinced Ali is trying to form an alliance and alienate him.
One wrote: “Is Ali trying to get everyone to dislike each other or…”
A second said: “Sorry, but I like Khaled…I really don’t know why they’re saying he’s fake..He’s not done anything wrong tbh.”
This person simply commented: “Khaled is the realest.”
A fourth said: “Unpopular opinion: I don’t like Ali,” while this person echoed: “Seeing a very different side to Ali.”
This viewer posted: “This Khaled thing seems to be spinning out of control for no reason, he hasn’t even done anything yet to be perceived as fake.”
