Kyle Cooke slammed his “Summer House” co-star Lindsay Hubbard as the “most calculated person” he knows — after she described him the same way.
“She thinks I’m calculated? I think she’s the most calculated person I’ve ever met, so I find that hysterical,” Cooke, 40, told Us Weekly Friday. “I mean, she goes into summer with a game plan. I’m just living my life.”
The Loverboy founder then clarified that the publicist’s “game plan” was “to make [Season 7] about her and Carl [Radke],” to whom she got engaged in August 2022.
Cooke’s comments came after Hubbard, 36, appeared onstage with Radke, 38, at Page Six’s live “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast taping last week and took a jab at Cooke over his appearance on the Peacock show “The Traitors.”
“You know what’s so funny? I’ve been, like, watching the show, and the first thing he says is, he’s like, ‘People don’t know this about me, but I’m calculated,’ and I’m like, ‘Oh, really? I know this about you,'” Hubbard said during the event at City Winery in New York.
Cooke explained to Us Weekly that when he described himself on “The Traitors,” he was referring to how people see him as a “goofball” on “Summer House” when he is actually a “very strategic thinker.”
“I am calculated when it comes to assessing things and sniffing things out and making judgments and seeing people for who they are. That’s what I was talking about,” he explained. “Take out the party element, and people are gonna see a different side of me. Not that I manipulate people, which is, I think, the word that usually follows calculated.
