Well, when Janelle got home after being evicted, Nicole‘s wedding invitation was there and she just shared it on Twitter.

“Just received my invite. 3k for hotel so Nicole’s reception and hotel stay can basically be comped. Glad I don’t have to go. I hate cheap ass weddings where the go to song is Cotton Eyed Joe,” Janelle tweeted.

Janelle also threw shade at another contestant in an interview after being evicted.
