Controversy Blasphemy and problems with televoting In the night between 17 and 18 December the housemate Matteo Casnici, during a conversation with Davide Baronicini and Francesca Giaccari, accidentally uttered a blasphemous expression: the incident was the subject of much controversy, especially by Catholic viewers, who following the program. For this reason, Grande Fratello has taken measures against the housemate and has decided not to resort to ejection, as happened in similar cases in previous editions, but to punish him with the nomination of office.

Subsequently, former housemate of GF10 Massimo Scattarella, ejected for blasphemy, asked to be reinstated in the house or, alternatively, a measure similar to the one he suffered for Matteo Casnici. Scattarella was a guest in the studio in the episode of December 27, 2010, reminding the authors of the show that all the housemates sign a contract with Endemol that explicitly prohibits swearing or cursing, under penalty of disqualification from the show. Grande Fratello then gave Massimo a second chance, making the public decide whether or not he could become an official competitor of GF11. The man entered the house on December 27, 2010 and waited for the response of the televoting serving a week of permanence inside the "Tugurio" in solitude.

In the end the public voted for the readmission and Massimo entered the house as an official housemate on January 3, 2011. This decision was the subject of much controversy by the Moige, which on January 4, 2011 issued an official press release in which the reality show of Canale 5 was accused of providing viewers with an indecent and deplorable show, in which the limits of public decency have been abundantly exceeded, since in the past the blasphemy on live television had always been heavily condemned and had never been forgiveness or the reintegration of a blasphemer.

The Catholic daily Avvenire also lashed out against the broadcast by publishing an article in which the reality show was accused of making a spectacle of the offense against God and the good education that unites believers and non-believers. Subsequently, on January 8, 2011, due to a deplorable episode that occurred inside the house, the authors unexpectedly canceled the weekly televoting between the three housemates at risk of elimination, namely Giuliano Cimetti, Olivia Lechner and Pietro Titone. Grande Fratello, in an official statement issued by the broadcast site, added that it would fully reimburse all spectators who had voted during the week.

The reasons of this cancellation are due to another blasphemy pronounced on the night between 7 and 8 January 2011 by Pietro Titone. Following this event, there were further controversies and the issue of blasphemies on TV has aroused strong negative reactions from many Italian religious associations; for this reason and for the low level reached by the housemates of this edition, Mediaset, publisher of the reality show, in the episode of January 10, 2011 considered it appropriate to intervene with an official statement in which it ejected all the housemates guilty of having uttered a curse inside of the house, namely Matteo Casnici, Pietro Titone and Massimo Scattarella (who pronounced a blasphemy during Grande Fratello 10). An unprecedented decision in the history of Big Brother.
