Luke Valentine on Big Brother 25 was expelled from the show for using a racist slur (the N‑word) during a casual conversation caught on the 24/7 live feeds in the house.

Because the exact word is a serious racial slur, most news outlets and fan forums either censor it or refer to it only as “the N‑word,” and the show itself did not replay the audio uncensored. CBS stated that he violated the Big Brother code of conduct and emphasized a zero‑tolerance policy for racial slurs, which is why he was removed from the game so quickly and his exit was addressed in the following episode.

If you’re seeing people ask “what did Luke say BB25” in forums, they’re almost always referring to that incident and are not talking about a separate quote or twist later in the season.
