Julie Chen's Hugging Policy Confuses 'Big Brother' Fans After Cookout Appearance - Read Reactions!
Big Brother fans are so confused by Julie Chen‘s actions following the latest episode of the long-running reality series.
During all of the live episodes that have aired during the pandemic, Julie has told contestants that they were not allowed to hug her amid their exits from the house due to the pandemic. She always gives them an air-hug instead, despite the fact that the contestants have all been in isolation for weeks or sometimes months.
On Thursday night (September 22), the “Cookout” alliance from last season reunited on stage to talk about the current state of the Big Brother game.
Fans were quick to notice that Julie gave them all hugs, even though they have been out in the real world. So, why was she willing to hug them over the contestants, who have little to no chance of having COVID-19?

So Julie can hug the previous cast of the previous season of #BigBrother but people locked in a house for 79 (checks notes) days in solitary isolation might have the Miss Rona? #BB24
