Chima Simone, who was ousted from CBS’s “Big Brother” house over the weekend, issued an apology for calling a fellow housemate who is Lebanese-American a terrorist, the Associated Press reports.

She didn’t apologize, however, for the temper tantrums that got her kicked out of the house

“I used a phrase that was insensitive given his Middle Eastern descent, and I apologize to all who are justifiably offended with my use of that racially charged term,” Simone wrote in an e-mail to Hollyscoop.com, her former employer.
