Natalie .
On Day 42, Matt went out with a vote of 4-3 after Head of Household
James backdoored him. “I honestly am devastated. I thought I pulled through with the votes -- apparently I didn't. James just convicted the wrong man of a crime. I didn't put him on the block and I didn't back-door him last week. I voted to get him out but... wrongfully accused,” Matt said after going out of the Big Brother house.
Matt became the first member of Big Brother 9's jury.
