"Between selling houses, running Airbnbs, raising three kids, and pretending I know what day it is, I don't have time to be locked in a house for 100 days."

The four-time Big Brother houseguest added, "You guys can fight over slop without me."
But then Janelle -- a BB icon known as a "comp beast" -- proceeded to write, "Besides, I'm going to Greece this summer!"
Janelle didn't exactly help to dispel casting rumors with that comment because in 2012, she had told fans she was traveling to Greece for a vacation when she actually ended up appearing on Big Brother's 14th season.
"Yeah, yeah whatever girl. Get ready for sequester this week," one of Janelle's followers quipped in reply to her post.
But other fans took Janelle's statement about not participating in Big Brother's next season seriously.
"Your commentary will be missed. Have a great trip be safe & head on a swivel," one person commented.
Big Brother's 28th season is set to premiere on Wednesday, July 9 at 8PM ET/PT on CBS.
Since the Big Brother season's cast and theme have yet to be officially revealed, many fans are wondering if returning players will be part of the game.
Fellow BB icon Danielle Reyes therefore recently shared via X that she won't be on Season 28 this summer.

"I know, I know. I appreciate you guys hoping but I haven't been contacted by the producers. I am excited that this season is going to be the 1,000th episode of Big Brother. How exciting is that? And I haven't been invited to do anything for this. So you guys more than likely won't see me."
But Danielle -- a Traitors alum who was wearing her Big Brother All Stars hat in the video -- surprised fans when she concluded with a smirk and playful tone, "And fans, you guys know I would never lie about something like this."
The premiere of Big Brother 28 -- which CBS described as the show's "biggest season" yet -- will be 90 minutes long.
Following its debut episode, CBS will air a special 90-minute episode on Sunday, July 12 at 8PM ET/PT.
