Janelle Pierzina claps back at a Big Brother 22: All-Stars fan and claims that Nicole Franzel bought fake Instagram followers. At this point, even the most casual Big Brother fan is aware of the ongoing feud between Janelle and Nicole. Ironically, however, the feud didn't start on BB22. According to Janelle, this feud can be traced back to a charity event that she did a few years ago, where Nicole and Janelle shared a room that was paid for by the charity organization. Janelle recalls a needy Nicole asking Janelle to hang out with her all the time. But Janelle hung out with Elissa Slater more often at the event, which, according to Janelle, made Nicole feel very irritated.
Then, it just so happened that these three women were cast on the same season of The Amazing Race. Nicole Franzel competed along with her fiancé Victor Arroyo. Janelle Pierzina was paired up with her friend and BB14 co-star Britney Haynes. Elissa Slater was in a team with her sister, BB13 winner Rachel Reilly. According to Nicole and Janelle, there was a lot of friction between Rachel and Nicole on TAR. As the story goes, Rachel told Nicole about a team planning to u-turn her and Victor. But Nicole allegedly ran with that information and managed to turn the other teams against Rachel instead. Needless to say, Janelle took Rachel's side. Then, on BB22, the feud between Janelle and Nicole reached new heights.
The Big Brother: All-Stars fans that support Janelle have a lot of fun throwing shade at Nicole Franzel's career as a social media influencer. However, Nicole's fans are now also poking fun at Janelle for making money off of her social media profiles. During one particular interaction, a BB fan claimed that Janelle was "trying to ruin a women's freaking life because of jealousy. She wanted what Nicole has with social media." The fan also criticized Janelle as a player and as a person. In response, Janelle sent out a tweet (seen below) laughing at those accusations. She then sarcastically asked the fan, "Are you talking about her fake followers she bought or the ones that followed her from Frankie five years ago that no longer even engage with her posts?"
In her reply, Big Brother legend Janelle claims that Nicole Franzel's Instagram followers are fake because her posts don't have the expected engagement for a profile that is followed by over 600,000 people. Janelle also adds that Nicole got a lot of followers from certain posts that she had with BB16 co-star Frankie Grande. After all, Frankie is famous for being Ariana Grande's sister.
One thing is certain: this Big Brother 22: All-Stars feud isn't slowing down anytime soon now that Nicole Franzel is also out of the house and can read everything that Janelle has said and is saying.
