AE: You said on the live feeds that last season was your last season of House Calls...
MR: No, that was actually a lie. There was this rumor going around in the house that if I get kicked out, that I could go back to House Calls, and that was the truth. If I got kicked out before sequester, I could have gone back and done House Calls. But I didn't want that to factor in to somebody getting rid of me, so I said in the house, “Oh no, I can't go back to House Calls, they have a new host.” And then I said, “Oh, I really don't like doing House Calls, this is my last season, I'm sort of done, blah blah blah”. Unlike Boogie and Will, I didn't want to throw in people's faces what my outside life was like, because I think that factors in.

AE: I've got one more question about Howie, then we'll be finished with him. For a while Howie was really flirting with Will, really coming on to him. How did it feel seeing him use gay sexuality as a strategy?
MR: You know, Mike Boogie thought I was basically a bitch in the house because I wouldn't talk about sex and I wouldn't play that game. I think that when you're a gay man, gay people are sort of thought of as these hedonistic, sexual, crazy, do it to me, sock it to me, I'm going to have sex all the time people. So for me, I can't play that game because I don't want that image out there of us and, specifically, of me.

So, yes, there was a night that Boogie got pissed off at me because I wouldn't make out with him so that two girls would make out. Somebody was like, well, if you kiss Marcellas then Diane – I think it was Diane and Erika – if you kiss Marcellas, then we'll make out, and Boogie was like okay, Marcellas, you can kiss me on the cheek and blah blah blah. I was like, I'm not kissing you! First of all, I don't want to kiss you, and secondly, that's... no, I'm not going to do that. He was like, why are you being so...? And I was like, you know what? Why would I kiss you? Why would I make a spectacle out of myself in that way?

Okay, without pulling any punches, I think that Howie would go there. I'm not saying that he's gay, but Howie seems like the kind of person that's a swinger. You know how swingers would do anybody? They'll just take sex from where ever they can get it. I was on the receiving end of a lot of inappropriate comments from Howie, a lot of inappropriate touching and that phony kissing that he does and I didn't like it. Those are the kind of things that I don't find funny and I don't think should be played with.

AE: I would much rather have seen Ivette [Big Brother's only lesbian contestant] this year than say, Kaysar or Howie.
MR: Are you kidding? Absolutely! That's something that we would all say in the house!

AE: That would have been great! That would have been much more interesting...
MR: Say what you want about Ivette, at the end of the game, when it's necessary, Ivette stepped up to the plate her season and won what she had to win. Yeah, she made some mistakes all the way through and her end game was horrible. You don't leave somebody an ugly going away message. But you know what? She won the HoH [Head of Household], she won Veto, she did what she had to do. She wasn't like a Howie who barely won anything.

AE: Right, she was one apology away from winning half a million dollars.
MR: Absolutely.

AE: I'm a little bit pissed at you and I'll tell you why: Slop. Was it that bad that you would jeopardize your health by going a week without eating?
MR: Why does that have to mean that I was jeopardizing my health?
