The Challenge star Johnny Bananas is reflecting on how well Dee Valladares is playing Big Brother.
Dee is best known for winning Survivor, but she has also been featured on The Challenge.
Dee competed on MTV’s The Challenge: Vets & New Threats. She won her very first daily challenge and was later nicknamed “Empanada” by Bananas.
This was shortly after winning Survivor 45. Later, Dee returned for Survivor 50 to help celebrate the reality competition show.
This summer, Dee is living in the Big Brother house. She has joined fellow Survivor legend Rick Devens on the BB28 cast. So far, she is doing extremely well at navigating the personal game required to do well.
And why is Bananas speaking about her specifically? The duo had a showmance on The Challenge 41, but have since gone their separate ways.

“I am not surprised she’s doing well. If there’s one thing she knows how to do, it’s play games on TV and outside of TV,” Johnny Bananas told Us Weekly. “So no, I am not surprised at all with how well she’s doing.”
“I wish her all the best,” Bananas added. “But I also wish all the guys in that house all the best as well.”
The topic of Dee being on Big Brother came up as Bananas has been promoting The Challenge 42.
A new season of The Challenge is streaming on Paramount+. Producers brought back the Cutthroat theme.
Here is a link to the cast list for The Challenge 42. It features people from Survivor, Big Brother, Love Island USA, The Challenge, The Real World, and more.
Bananas had more to say about Dee.
“So what you’re saying is it ended well,” Survivor legend Michelle Fitzgerald joked in their joint interview with Us Weekly.
“What I’m saying is it ended like I felt like I was on a reality television show. I’m like, ‘I don’t see cameras around here anymore. We’re not trying to out-manipulate and out-scumbag each other, but apparently I’m the only one that got that memo,’” Bananas replied.
Yikes. How do you really feel, Bananas?
