‘Big Brother’: Did Zingbot Just Call Out Morgan & Vince’s Showmance? They React
[Warning: The following contains spoilers from the live feeds from Week 10 of Big Brother Season 27 .]
The Zingbot is back to roast Big Brother‘s Season 27 houseguests, and it’s clear no topic is off limits, including the season’s infamous “cheatmance” between Vince Panaro and Morgan Pope.
According to live feed viewers, Zingbot entered the BB house after the eviction on September 11, allegedly hitting Morgan with the cheeky zing, “What do you call someone who lights up when Vince walks into the room, gives him long hugs, and cuddles him? His girlfriend!” This has caused both Vince, who viewers know is in a long-term relationship outside of the house, and Morgan to finally catch on to fan speculation about the nature of their relationship.
In a conversation on the live feeds, Morgan admitted to Vince, “The second I heard your name, I was like, ‘Wow, they’re going there.'” Trying to recall what the specific zing was, Morgan continued, “Clearly, I light up whenever I see you.” Trying to remember what was said, Morgan stated, “We don’t cuddle.” Laughing, Vince added, “I have not spooned you at any point.”

In the early morning on September 12, as Vince and Morgan sorted through separate sleeping arrangements in the HOH room, they continued to discuss their confusion about Zingbot’s claims. Morgan began, “I just hope that when America watches us, they see, like, a best friend duo. Not whatever Zingbot thinks it.”
“So that’s what the public perception is,” Vince pondered. According to Vince, another unspecified houseguest let him know that he may not be seeing the full picture, telling him, “I don’t know, other people must be talking about it, but as a friend, I just thought I should let you know.” However, for Vince, this must have been too little too late. Reflecting on the conversation, he told Morgan, “If [they] were my friend, [they] would have told me three weeks ago, saying, ‘Hey you’re looking a little cozy with Morgan.’ That’s what a friend would have done because I’ve never viewed it that way.”
In response, Morgan told Vince, “It’s so weird because it would be very different if I was like, like you said, straddling you or like always being — even doing that sometimes I’ll catch myself and I’ll come off.” She then proceeded to share that she thought viewers would see them as a strong final two alliance, “Like, at first, I was like, I feel like people would be like ‘Damn, these, like Vinny and Morgan are ride or dies.'”
If anything, Morgan regretted not addressing the zing right after it happened. During their early morning conversation, she told Vince, “I think the only thing that I regret is like, after the zing. Cause I was chilling, I was like, ‘So anyone want some pizza?'” However, after a minute, she realized, “Wait? Are they implying XYZ?” Recalling her realization, she continued, “And then, of course, I vent out loud, and then Keanu started listening to it, and then I see the camera turning, and I’m like, damn, I hope that this part doesn’t make the episode because I’m just venting about how, like it could really, like—not like, I’m mean just like… Wow, this could ruin my real life.”
After Vince claimed their time in the Big Brother house would not ruin Morgan’s life, she agreed, “It would only ruin it if it was actually real.” According to Vince, Morgan shouldn’t worry. He assured her, “That’s extreme. If we get a few random comments on Instagram, then whatever. I don’t care.”

One thing Morgan and Vince did not discuss during their early morning conversation was how his girlfriend, Kelsey, would react to their in-house connection, which has been a hot-button topic for fans of the show. Fans also noted that Big Brother had decided to place the long-awaited “cheatmance” zing on Morgan, who is single, and not Vince himself.
