He had the brawn, but Russell couldn't power through to win "Big Brother." Now the evicted housemate is telling ET about the blowups that got him booted. INSIDER: Do you really harbor bad feelings toward Jeff, who you called "an idiot," or do you feel he was just playing The Game RUSSELL: He played a great game and I have no hard feelings. INSIDER: Why did you give Jessie your vote -- especially after Jeff saved you and Jessie had no intention of keeping you that very same night? RUSSELL: I told Jessie that I would never vote to evict him. I was unsure if Michele would vote to keep him in the house and that would have been 3-2 vote in Jessie’s favor to stay. INSIDER: Were you just playing The Game like "Ronnie the rat" -- who told us that he's only a bad guy on TV? RUSSELL: It’s a character I chose to play in The Game I decided to be the villain. It was all just an act. INSIDER: Any regrets? Would you do anything differently? RUSSELL: I would have found the Laura Banana. I never want a banana again. INSIDER: You said you hoped Michele wins. Were you trying to comfort her or is she your pick to take it all? RUSSELL: I was just trying to comfort her and get her vote. "Big Brother" airs on CBS Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT, Thursdays & Sundays at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
