What To Know
- Jason De Puy, also known as Salina EsTitties from RuPaul’s Drag Race, was eliminated from Big Brother 28.
- He talked to Swooon about his close alliance with Rome Seymour and Rome’s showmance with Lyric Medeiros.
- Jason revealed he felt isolated in the game after Rome’s eviction, highlighting Rome and La Trice as the only housemates he truly trusted during his time on the show.
Hide your tea kettles and wooden spoons because Jason De Puy is officially outside of the Big Brother house.
As Big Brother 28 viewers know, Jason, who previously appeared on RuPaul’s Drag Race under the drag name Salina EsTitties, got the boot after three weeks in the BB house and one intensely dramatic tea party. Now, the fan-favorite star — who was sent home way too soon, if you ask us! — is spilling all the tea on Lyric Medeiros and Rome Seymour‘s showmance. After all, he was their closest ally!
“I loved it,” he shared, looking back at the season’s first showmance. “I just love love. In the pre-interview with Taylor Hale, before going into the house, me and Taylor were talking about showmances, and guys, and flirting, and [if] I was gonna do that.”
Looking back at his most solid alliance with one half of the showmance, Rome, who was eliminated last week, he shared, “It kind of bit me in the butt to follow the pretty boy. But to be honest, Rome was the only person in the house who I felt truly — Rome and La Trice [Verrett], honestly, were the only ones who I felt truly had my back in there.”

A week before Jason’s departure, Rome was sent home. “Once Rome left, I did feel very alone game-wise,” Jason confessed. Whether Rome and Lyric’s relationship status will be up in the air until she exits the Big Brother house, Jason shared, “I root for Rome. Rome is a beautiful, amazing human, and the fact that he decided to take me under his wing instead of teaming up with the big muscle dudes, I just think speaks volumes of him as a person, and I’m so grateful to have known him, and I miss him so much.”
We’re rooting for a Rome and Jason reunion soon!
