Big Brother 2013 Spoilers: Aaryn Gries’ Mother Apologizes
|We have all seen and heard the comments made by Aaryn Gries on Big Brother 2013 and many were calling for her dismissal from Big Brother 15. That never happened, but her eviction last week finally did happen at the hands of the other remaining HouseGuests and the interview with Big Brother host Julie Chen afterwards received a lot of attention. Whether you thought it was harsh or not, we now have some words from Aaryn’s mother about the situation and some words of apologies in my Big Brother 2013 spoilers below.
So, what does mom think of her daughter’s words and actions on Big Brother 2013? She released a statement to the Los Angeles Times:
“While I love and continue to support my daughter Aaryn, words cannot describe my disappointment in some of her comments made on Big Brother. These inappropriate comments certainly do not represent the value system under which her father and I have raised her. Aaryn is a young 22-year-old college student that has spent 70 days living in a fish bowl and making mistakes for America to see.”

Well, Aaryn wasn’t raised that way, but she did say the things, correct? In order to prove she isn’t racist, you know Mom is going to pull out the “black friend” card and so on. Yup, she did it. She went to the senior prom with an African American man and then goes on to say: “Aaryn’s first true love was Cuban American, and she has cousins of Japanese descent who she truly loves. She has never discriminated against anyone for their sexual orientation whether within our family or not. Aaryn truly loves all people equally.”
When you have to pull out cards like that and defend the fact that you are not a racist and these are the reasons why, then you are probably a racist. She goes on to think that CBS used this to benefit them and not show her apologies to the HGs: “It appears that it was beneficial for Big Brother to focus on the negative comments made by Aaryn to boost ratings. Again, I DO NOT condone those inappropriate comments, but I — and I am sure the entire Big Brother audience — would have appreciated the show’s producers also airing her complete statement acknowledging the mistakes she made and more of her apologies to the Houseguests while still ‘in the house.'”
Does that include the night before her eviction and her continued racist comments then? She cooled down on the comments, but then knew she was going home and let the real Aaryn come out again on Big Brother 2013.
While I loved the way Julie Chen handled the situation and the interview with Aaryn, her mother seems to think differently: “I am disappointed that a woman of Julie Chen’s stature would choose to attack Aaryn and influence America to judge the fallacies she [Chen] seems to have about Aaryn.”
Well, I personally think many people were not fans of Aaryn way before Julie made any comments about it. What do you think? I get that she is trying to defend her daughter, but just avoid the media and let it all float away. People have already forgotten about her, so let it be!

People can make their minds up from what they have seen, her mother is no better then her.
Mothers will defend their daughters. No matter what or how. Remember cindy anthony?
I agree! Besides it is NOT her mother’s place to do the apologizing it is hers. She meant every word she said or she would not have said them. She was still making excuses when she was talking to Julie Chen, & you can’t apologize for what you do not acknowledge, & she said she was sorry if she offended anyone….NOT for what she said. I think Julie Chen did an excellent job on that interview. Sorry their little Aaryn did NOT come out looking like the princess THEY think she is, but rather the racist she IS! On the last night Amanda & Aaryn were saying they hate Asians & laughing! Obviously her mother doesn’t read facebook & all the comments either. We all hated Aaryn “MOM”!
OMG Char you hit it all on the head!!!!!!
I will never forget Aaryn’s reply to Amanda when Amanda was trying to warn Aaryn about the comments, and the perception, of the HG’s and public at large. She said ‘I wish I could care more about that, but I don’t’. That one sentence says it all in my book.
I will never forget that comment either Susan. She is what she is..and I thought that Julie Chen’s interview was spot on..
I agree. What 22 year old calls a black girl Aunt jamima in this day & age? She got that from her mom. Aaron called Candice Aunt Jamima & told her to fix her some pancakes.
The same kind of person that calls white people “Crackers”. I hear this on tv all day long by black people. I guess THAT”S ok? Hmmmmm????
oh no, it is not ok! There are racist in every color and race.and I do believe that she was raised that way..
Crackers is just a term for the slave master cracking the whip getting ready to beat a slave. So it means a white person thats in power.
I think attacking Aaryns mother is a low blow. You don,t know this woman and a mother will always defend her child, as she should.I read her comments and thought she was very sinsere.
Arron was raised as a racist because she acts like a racist from the 60’s.
Candice didn’t do anything to provoke her to hate her. Candice even petted & consoled that fatal attraction racist when she was crying over nick.
Yeah, she was about as sincere as Aaryn. You’re not born racist it is taught to you.
Now you are prejudging the mother who is just defending her daughter.
Her mother must NOT have subscribed to LIVE FEEDS because I did! And there never was an apology, until she realized she was going home. I think the mother must be like the daughter, all face and no heart, because her excuses come off insincere as her daughter’s eleventh hour apologies.
Like everyone else, LESS IS MORE. Had she not blamed Big Brother, or Julie Chen, I would almost would have believed she was sincere…..but……she kept on rambling…..and here I do an eye roll, like Aaryn did when Amanda tried to warn her.
She is a racist & momma knows this. Julie chin grew up under racism & knows how it can hurt. Moms tried to protect their children, but this time she failed & the world sees they are alike
Totally Agree
If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, it is pretty much a duck? Yes mothers protect their children no matter what, but she shouldn’t blame CBS for airing Aaryn’s true colors, it is what it is! Shameful, I am sure we will see part of jury ppl next week, that is usually when they start showing what they are up to.
Wasn’t expecting her to say anything else than what she did. Now Aaryn is nothing but background noise. An irritant but totally forgettable once you learn how to drown her out.
I especially “shake my head” when I hear them begin defending themselves ( like Aaryn did with Julie ) by saying “Well, I’m from the SOUTH……”!!! So, apparently if one is “from the South”, they are supposed to have a free pass to say racist and homophobic comments??? Seriously???
I’m black,I’m from Houston. I went to Gary Job corps in San Marcos texas where arron is from. most of the black people in San Marcos should know Aaron. They probably know shes like that & they probably ignore her. Thats why she says “in Texas we joke and don’t mean it”, its because blacks ignore her in San Marcos. San Marcos is small
I’m from the south and no we are not all racist such as not everyone up north is not all racist. This is a sad thing and I do agree CBS made the most out of all the statements for ratings.
So people who should be held responsible ? There was no consequences , what should we expect?
CBS should have stopped that the first words said——ratings equals dollars !!!!
It wasn’t done for ratings, it was done because Aaryn is a racist pig!!! She was warned how she might be viewed and she kept it up. She did apologize to Howard but of course she didn’t mean it because she kept up her remarks. She wasn’t the only one but the first one. Instead of her mom trying to blame Julie and CBS she should have apologized for raising a racist brat and have her go to sensitivity classes!!
I do not think it should be blamed on CBS. This years HG are way out of control. They have no respect. When they ask them not to talk about DR it means nothing to them. They keep right on finishing what they wanted to say. They are quite a bunch!
Aaryn is probably the way she is b/c she has a mother that skirts around the truth, avoids the real issues, and jumps in defending her daugther’s mistakes. If Aaryn wasn’t racist, then she would have NEVER made the comments that she made. Since I would cut out my tongue rather than say the things she said OFF camera, I wouldn’t just randomly say things ON camera that are totally against my value system and my core beliefs. Julie handled making Aaryn accountable for her actions in a dignified, fair way. She did not skirt the issues, but rather asked her calmly and politely about the things she said-one of which stung Julie. (“I’ll slap her slanted eyes into her head” talking about Helen.) This is why kids act the way that they do-b/c they have parents helping them avoid consequences. Now at 20, she still doesn’t know any better.I think that Big Brother should have kicked her off the show the night she made all of those comments. She’s lucky she hasn’t gotten sued. (or maybe since she is so innocent of all of this, maybe her parents should be sued for raising a daughter like this.) I believe her mother said “she wasn’t raised this way” to cover her own hide of being a terrible parent. We’re all over your daughter, missy.
Aaryn would’ve been better off if mama didn’t keep the spotlight on on her.
Aaryn would be better off if mama wouldn’t keep it going.
She is just a kid. Everyone says stuff they regret later. Good grief do you want her to kill herself over it? She made a mistake.
Yeah shes a RACIST kid.Arron doesn’t regret anything she said. shes just upset because she wasn’t portrayed as a beautiful lovely smart girl.
She probably went in the jury house & blames candice for what Julie said. Aaron is the type of girl that would stand & watch her husband hang a black man from a tree. Gina marie is the type to tell her husband not to hang the black man, but just warn him to stay in his place.
Hmmm? sounds like somebody else is passing judgment on these people. Judge not lest ye be judged. You don’t know these peoples hearts. GM talked the same way about the WHITE people in the house. She’s just plain trash. She’s the same to everybody. That doesn’t make her a racist. It just makes her stupid. Your comments were typical of a person who only see’s what they want to see. BAM!
Since when is being in your 20’s a “kid”??? Kid is 8, 9 etc. not 20 something. Should she kill herself, no…but there are people that are affected by words, such as what Aaryn and a few of the others said, that make the person you are hurting kill themselves. When does it stop??? She is an entitled, spoiled racist that needs a few lessons on how to treat people and respect others.
Joie When you get a little older like maybe 35. You will realize 22 is a kid. But 22 year olds know right from wrong more so than a child or teen. thats why she has to reap the backlash & deal with it.
I am not just from the South, I’m from the Deep South. In my hometown, there were literally less than 10 African American citizens. Only 1 girl in my class from kindergarten until 5th grade, and only 6 students within our entire school. Racism, bigotry, abuse, and prejiduce, whether loud and proud, a commonly known but quiet undertone, or covert but vicious…THAT IS NOT “JUST HOW WE TALK!.” Honestly, there are people like my grandmother. She’s over 90, and because of a sheltered small town life, she’s likely only come into contact with less than 20 “non-white” people in her life. About 15 years ago, she called a friend of mine “colored.” I almost choked and lovingly said “Mama, that’s hurtful to people, okay.” Her response was “I thought it was that N word that wasn’t nice.” I respectfully explained things to her and she wept, because she said she must have sounded so awful any other time she’d said it.” That type of thing does happen sometimes. When you get these towns with 80 people in them, most over 60 who have only traveled w/in 100 miles, that can occur. But people like Aaryn and the rest don’t get to ride on those coat tails. That’s not okay to say, and it’s offensive to those of us in the south who love and respect all of God’s creatures. Southern faith doesn’t give you a bigotry pass. There are towns and churches who are hateful and vile, but most of us like to be thankful for the slow and easy pace of our lives, and embrace the ethnic and cultural differences between us. If you are gonna be that way, at least don’t paint all of us with tha nasty brush.
About Mrs. Chen’s interview, I thought she was more than fair. (Until I heard a season 8 comment she made, referring to Jenn in her unitard. Chen said “you really take the “uni”‘out of unitard. That was unsettling If she hasn’t, she should apologize about that. It’s just as bad
geez…I wonder if people will ever be affected the popularity the brash comedians like chris rock, carlos mencia, dave chappell and their routines of ni**er is and ni**er that, beaner this, beaner that. honkey cracker this, honkey cracker that.
this is not a blanket excuse or accepting to be saying those derogatory and hurtful things, but in their narrow minds I kinda think they think, “oh haha, im being funny.” well, honey, no the hell you arnt…but then again some people say a crucifix in urine is art.
Aaryn will reap what she has sown, so I haven’t given, nor plan to give, any time of my lfe worrying about what she said or what her Momma said. CBS got their money’s worth with her. She served her purpose. I save my worrying for children being abused by adults, animals being abused and discarded, and the serious lack of funding for education. Aaryn isn’t even a blip on my radar and to give her my precious “worry time” would a waste of it. I have been called all sorts of derogatory stereotypical things in my life, but if I know who I am, why in the world would I give a flying fig what anyone says about me?
Like mother, like daughter
Chen should grow some thicker skin. I’m a short man; I see short guys getting it all the time in commercials and stuff. I never got anything said to me personally because I’ve got shoulders like a truck, but at the end of the day height is a physical characteristic just like color, lips, eyes, hair etc. I can laugh at it- I don’t understand why others can’t. It’s not like she said, “I hate all Asians” or something.
If you haven’t been discriminated against by whites then what is your point?
Physical appearance is different from racial issues.
and HOW is physical appearance different from racial issues!?!? That’s all part of discrimination correct? CORRECT?!?! NO you say? Tell me the difference then?
Purphict1
Black people have been treated like sub humans for centuries. And all of us don’t look alike.
Do people fear you because you are short? its annoying.
Do merchants follow you around stores because you are short thinking you are gonna steal everytime you walk in a store? I consider myself very classy well dressed. I’ve never stolen. but because i’m black people think I’m gonna steal something.
Gets on my nerves.
I see a lot of white THUGS go into stores that are followed around. GOthic kids, people with tattoo’s, etc. Grant it, I remember locking my doors when a black person passed by my car. I wasn’t used to being around black people years ago. That doesn’t mean I’m predjudice. It was ignorance! Point is, people fear different people because of their race, choice of clothes or tattoo’s. Stop feeling sorry for yourself. We have a ‘black’ President. Get over yourself.
and I’m white and I was JUST discriminated against today by a black person in the store. The black sales person ignored me and walked RIGHT past me to wait on a black lady. POOOOOR ME!! What EVER will I do! I chalk that up to stupidity. I didn’t stop and call CBS and report her as a racist. Happens to me A LOT lately. I guess I am getting what I deserve because it’s PAYBACK TIME?!!?
Purphict1…It wasn’t because you were white, it was because you were short, and she didn’t see you!!!!! 🙂 Just a little humor to keep peace!!
LOL
White people called CBS, blacks had nothing to do with it. Just like blacks had nothing to do with that Paula Dean mess.
White people have done all the calling of CBS about everything on BB 15. they are not gonna listen to a black person making complaints dumbass.
98% of the people watching BB are white.
Blacks had nothing to do with Paula Dean!?!? LOL What about Wendy Williams?!?! SHe made the biggest stir. You saw her for a full week crying. Julie C. made the biggest fuss about BB. She’s not white. Networks always tell you what you want to hear. Sheep listen to them. Typical

I’m trying to make points & you think I’m feeling sorry for myself. Boy you are so DUMB.I don’t pity myself.
So now that theres a black president the world is different. You aren’t even smart enough to understand what you are talking about.
All you racists talk about is Al Sharpton Jesse jackson & now theres a black president. thats your answer to everything.
no that’s YA”LL answer to everything. LOL I”m not a racist, you don’t even know me. and yes you try to make points but then you ignore MY points. Typical ignorance
It does NO good to try to prove MY point because your point is always going to be right. I’m sorry you were mistreated growing up. I’m sorry you were followed around in the stores all your life but I didn’t DO it! I”m a realist and I’m an adopted redheaded skinny boy that has been picked on ALL my life by blacks, whites, everybody. IT’s called LIFE! TRUE, Aaron is a racist I’m sure but that doesn’t mean her parents are. I know a lot of people that were raised decent but turned out to be trash. It’s their environment and their friends they hang with. Don’t blame her parents for sticking up for her. I’m sure you stick up for black people all the time. Did you want Zimmerman killed? What about the 3 kids that killed the Australian? What that ok or the poor kids were just a product of their environment? I’m done. Have a nice life and peace!
Chen is just like the rest of the media. Out to get the white person and prove her point. Whoa is America. Only certain people can get away with these things these days.

So now the Paula Deen mess is because of Wendy William so therefore black people instigated the whole thing?
I saw it on Good Morning America & everytime I turned the channels it was on the news. It wasn’t even a big deal to black people. whites turned it into a big deal.
A white guy leaked the footage of the video & white companys and establishments dropped her. But its black people at fault. Make sense.
LOL YOU know as well as anybody else, the MEDIA is VERY well rehearsed in what they are to put on the news. Did you hear ANYTHING about the Australian guy that was killed? was it on the news every single day like Trevon? NO! Paula Dean was dropped by whites yes. I wonder WHY!>?!? Scared of the backlash from higher up. Look at Chick-Fil-A. They were on the news because they support pro-life and were boycotted by the gays and a lot of people. You can’t do what’s right anymore or have ANY kind of morals or the media doesn’t like it. It’s a sick world we live it. This country is going to hell in a handbasket. Black people had little to do with Paula BUT it’s people like wendy and Julie that get air time because of it is my point. Networks don’t want to air Australains death because the Liberals might get mad. PS- – yes I”m all over the place beucase I’m ADHD and I cna’t keep me thoughts straight LOL
Here we go with the Trevon case again
We black people being outraged about the death of a black kid & you whites can’t STAND it.
We care about our kids to.
Why does it make you people so angry that Zimmerman should just kill a black kid in cold blood and go home like he killed squirrel or something? He needed to take his ass to jail like any other murderer.
You will never understand that black people are people to. The world can’t just revolve around white people.
you want us to love you & other races but not ourselves?
The SAD thing is, if a black person or the gay guy would have said these things, it would NEVER have been brought up again.! CASE CLOSED!
Purphict
Yeah its sad that people can’t just allow others to freely display KKK behavior. maybe if we are lucky slavery will come back.
Aaron has been so mistreated it makes me sick to think that she can’t freely mistreat a girl because shes black..
LOL I’m not saying what she did was right at ALLLL! My point was well taken and anybody with any brains would recognize that. Australian kid killed ring any bells?
and I didn’t realize she burned a cross in Candice’s room. Tell Sharpton and Jackson to stop what they do and we’ll see how people get along. Poor MLK is rolling over in his grave right now I”m sure due to those guys. MLK was a great man and wanted to stop discrimination not keep it going.
You sent money to George Zimmerman didn’t you?
LOL Nope! You send money to Jessie and Al? Stereotypist much?!!?!? Zimmerman is killer plain and simple. He should be put away but it’s not media worthy unless it’s against a black guy. YOu know my point but again refuse to see it. Typical!!
Jonte, I’m not about hate or anything. I just dislike what liberals are doing to the society these days by basically saying morality is wrong! It infuriates me when both sides are not shown on the air anymore just the side the media cares to cover. America is ready for a downfall. IT’s not becuase of black people OR white people OR any other race. IT’s becuase of the lack of morality!! God be with this ONCE great nation and God be with you too Jonte. Love ya! 🙂
