Isn't the premise of this entire show to be REALITY and capture REAL moments when people are shacked up together? They might as well script it, if they don't already.
Evander Holyfield told a housemate on "UK Celebrity Big Brother" that being gay is no different than being handicapped ... because a doctor can fix both ... and was immediately SCOLDED like a child by "BB" producers.
Holyfield made the comments Sunday -- during his first week in the BB house -- when reality star Luisa Zissman asked him if there were any gay boxers in the sport.
Holyfield -- a deeply religious Christian --cited the bible and said homosexuality is NOT a choice ... but rather something like a "handicap" ... something doctors can fix.
Zissman respectfully disagreed with Evander ... and it seemed the two were ready to move on with their lives ... when Evander was taken to a private room, where producers RIPPED him for expressing his beliefs.
In fact, "BB" producers called Evander's comments "inappropriate" because they "aren't the views that are held by a large section of society."
Holyfield says he understood that his comments could be considered offensive ... but never apologizes.
