'Big Brother 8' - East Coast Update - Live Blogging 7/17 Show

Jackie's TV Blog, BB8, Big Brother 8

The show has started here on the East Coast. Return to this entry as I'll update it throughout the show. Do not copy and paste any part of this entry on other sites without linking and giving this blog credit. (This means YOU.)

We've gone through a recap and Amber crying because she loves the two nominees so much. Now Nick and Daniele is whispering. He told her about his alliance.

Zach thinks Nick is getting played by Daniele and is concerned for their alliance.

It's the America's Player segment. He wanted something fun, so there he goes. Yes, America chose Joe. He FAILED the task because he gave up. Now the shower talk... gee, I had better video.

Veto competition. Jen picked Houseguest's Choice from the bag and chose Mike. Daniele chose Joe. Dick chose Amber. Dustin is the host. Amber is crying AGAIN. Too much pressure!

Jen tells Joe, Mike and Amber that they're to take Danmiele and Amber out first. If one of them gets the veto and uses it to remove Daniele and Dick from the block, she will put up one of their closest allies. Amber cries even more.

Amber is telling Nick, Jameka and Daniele about what Jen said. Amber said she had wanted to win to save either Daniele or Dick. Daniele confronts Jen about the threat and how Amber is reacting. Now Dick is in the act. Jen is just standing there.

Joe told her that Jen after putting people pn the block for having negative energy, was picking on him and making Amber cry. Now Zach and Jameka are having minor words. Dick is trying to intervene in an Amber/Jen talk. He's defending Amber, but it's probably for his own purposes, as well.

Time for the veto comp... snow! The Christmas theme! "The Cutthroat Christmas." It's a curling game and the winner gets the veto. When out of the game, select a gift from other the tree. Ones who last longer can steal the gift already won by another. There are gifts and punishments.

Joe eliminated first. His gift is a Slop Pass. Jen is eliminated next -- her gift is her red unitard which she must wear for rest of the week. Mike is eliminated,,, lots of Dick commentary on the comp. Mike won a Big Brother date, romantic gourmet meal in the yard. Dick is now out. He won a plasma TV.

It's between Amber and Daniele. Amber choked and tells us she threw it (from the DR) so Daniele could win. Amber has to wear handcuffs chaining her to the houseguest of her choice for 24 hours. She chose Kail. Daniele wins the POV! (But we knew that!)

Time for the unitard exhibibtion. "The Thing 2," yells Joe. The chained duo, Kail and Amber, share their Diary Room session.

Eric is working on Jen to get Jessica up on the block as a replacement. He's failing.

Zach is questioning Nick about who will go up. Nick and Zach both want to save Dick. Zach pushes Jen to choose Joe to replace Daniele if she saves herself. In a HOH Room meeting, they discuss who should go on the block. Jen wasn't thrilled with everyone pushing her to put up Joe.

Nick is flirting with Daniele again. Jen is looking jealous. She goes back to the HOH Room and tell the group there she wants to put Nick on the block.

Daniele is worried that if she uses the POV it will affect her Dad -- he's the one she trusts the most in the house. Asks Dick why she should use the veto to save him -- he joked about their close relationship, then told her to make her own choice. Daniele gives a bit teary speech. She's saving herself. Jen, in red unitard, snottily compliments Daniele and chooses to put Joe on the block.

Who do you want Eric, America's Player, to vote to evict? The task will only count if our choice goes home.

Vote JOE, vote early, vote often.

Give me a break. Jen threatened Amber and Joe. Not cool. Jen has got to go. Yea, for Daniele for telling her off. I am glad everyone is telling Jen like it is.

Now that's some great BB action so far!

Don't they do a psych screening on these people? Did they really think Amber was equipped to handle this?

I actually don't mind seeing Jen threaten people, cause she's playing the game. If I were HOH I wouldv'e put Amber up, just for that display. Jeez, pull it together girl!

And Zach's behavior is just abrasive and ugly.

Amber does cry WAY to much BUT we are not in the house...I am sure it is tough. Now, Dick...I freakin love him!!!! He says it like it is and just rocks!

OMG, please give Amber her meds....

Jen and that unitard. Joe is right, Big Brother, your punishments suck....she likes it waaaaayyyyy too much.

Ok...I hate to point out the disgustingly obvious, but did Jen say she has to wear that unitard all week? And is it obvious to everyone that she's not wearing underwear under it? I hope they gave her two of them so she has one to wear while she washes the first one.

EEEWWWWWWWW!!!!

Am I the only 30 something yr old who wants to SCREAM at her tv?
I HATE Jen!!!

Allllllll week!!!! Ahhh. I would strangle her by day 2!

Tessa said...

Does anyone in that house like Jen?

For once Amber wasn't crying in her diary room session but she looked awful. She looked like someone who was sleep deprived or on drugs. She looked like she was having a hard time keeping her eyes open.

Tessa said...

Do they keep showing 2 different scenes of Jen in the veto meeting. One she has a collar of the leotard and one it is hanging down.

Anonymous said...

I'm voting for Joe!!

Anonymous said...

If one of the guys had to wear the unitard, would they have allowed him to keep a towel or shirt or something tied around his waist? Cause I would imagine it would be almost x-rated. They definitely would not have been able to show a guy below the waist on tv.

Orkmommy - if you think the unitard looks bad on Jen now, wait til you see how she chopped it up to show her heinie (blech!)

So, if Eric failed at his task today, and he also fails if the person we choose doesn't actually GET evicted, how is the poor boy ever supposed to get 5 tasks in a row and win his 10 grand?? Once again, the BB twist is el stupido!

Jackie S. said...

Tessa - Those meetings often have to be reshot for language and stuff as they're seen on the show, but not on the feeds.

Voting is open! Vote for Joe!! Joe for President! I mean, Joe for Eviction! :-)

Everyone Vote Eric to vote to evict Joe.

Jackie S. said...

I'm not sure if he has to get five tasks in a row. I think he wins 10,000 for every five completed.

Anonymous said...

Thanks, Jackie.

And, one more question, why does Jeneric always look at the ceiling during all of her speeches? Is there a mirror up there?

Anonymous said...

I have noticed that when Jen is not telling the whole truth she looks off to one side and up. Watch for it!

VOTE FOR JOE VOTE FOR JOE

Anonymous said...

Clementine - The exact wording from the voting page is "For every five tasks he completes, he will be awarded $10,000". So by my count he's got 1 completed and 2 failed, right?

Anonymous said...

PS does anyone know? It lets you vote and vote...can it stop/not count you if you keep voting?

Anonymous said...

Orkmommy lets hope he WINS this task.

Anonymous said...

Orkmommy - well now I see why he was still trying to talk Jennoying into putting up Jessica as the replacement nom. I thought he completed that task just by trying, but now I agree with you, its 2 failed and 1 completed. But he should get a point for evicting Joe! (fingers-crossed!!)

Anonymous said...

I completed my task...voted for Joe 10 times. Do I get $10,000???? Oh, I'm sorry, I thought this was all about me.

I'm watching Pirate Master and just saw a commercial for Thursday's BB. JEN'S MOM IS GONNA BE ON!!! I cannot wait until Thursday to see what kind of woman raised that self-centered person!

I was Jackie. It must have been my being distracted when I passed the mirror and stared at myself in my new red unitard!!! LOL.

Jen in a unitard all week, if I had the feeds I'd have to cancel them! What was with the camera shot during the POV Meeting? If the camera was on Daniele, over her shoulder, was Jen's butt! Big and in all its glory! Good heavens, did we have to see that.
I'm no prude but if I had to wear it, there would be a T-shirt over it! Or...she needs a MUCH bigger belt.

I don't have the feeds, or the Showtime Channel, so what I "see" is poor Amber losing it far to often.Get strong girl, your daughter is going to want to see what you did while you were gone all summer.

Well, I'm going to reserve my opinion on Jen's upbringing until I hear what her Mom says on Thursday. Considering her Mom's picture is currently on the floor of the HOH room...that kind of disrespect for a parent is really hard to watch.

Anonymous said...

I'm voting for Joe as many times as they'll let me. Amber, PULEEEEZE!! Put a sock in it!I hope Jen has really pissed off people in that house enough with her threats, that they all get nervous and realize what a loose cannon she is. Get that BITCH out of there! Besides the fact that I can't STAND her, I abhor the fact that Boogie may have the chance to say he pulled one over on BB and America. Jen HAS TO GO!!!

Anonymous said...

Sheesh Joy...tell us how you really feel next time ;)

I think Boogie showed how stupid he really is when he helped Jen get on the show. Did he honestly think the HG's, let alone America, would like her? He's such a superficial, arrogant, ignorant jerk!

Anonymous said...

Clementine - I hope they ask her about Jen putting that picture on the floor. I'd like to feel sorry for her because of what Jen did, but in most cases adults are a direct result of their upbringing. If Jen disrespects her, it's probably because she allowed it (and still does). I hope I'm wrong, but we'll see...

Anonymous said...

Orkmommy. you have no idea what I was saying under my breath. I JUST LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!!

Anonymous said...

Do not know how Jen did it, but she was in the hot tub with the tard made into a sling top and bikini bottom (one piece) somehow!! When she left the water she wrapped into a towel and removed it right then and there to throw into the dryer so continue wearing it. OMG u have to be kidding!! @@

Anonymous said...

Man,I thought Miss inJENuous could not get any more obnoxious,but now I think I may have to gouge my eyeballs out!!The biggest show off in the house gets to show us everything she's got for a WEEK!!!
On top of that,she is such a phony!! But I just love it when ED tears into her,and way to go,Dani for telling her off.........BUT...the crying Amber has got to stop it or she HAS to be the next one gone after "IT". I can even stand Jessica's voice more than I can take the constant crying or red nose and eyes. And I agree,in the diary room,she looked like she was on something or needing to be on something..yikes!

The more I see of Zack,the less I like him. He thinks he's the king maker or something,shades of Booger or visions of granduer!

I loved the sour looks on Jen's unattractive(read "manish..as noted by someone)face. You could just see the slow burn going and the "I hate you" looks going toward Dani. I loved it...heehee!

hey orkmommy! love ya!! I never heard how was the meeting to be held in New York....did you have it yet? We leave the 26th for NY.

VOTE FOR JOE.....Vote FOR JOE.....

Petals said...

Am I the only one that thinks that Amber is moving from Dick to Kail? After all, she was sooo wanting a "mommy alliance".

Anonymous said...

Perhaps her mother can explain the JENetic Defect....

Am I dreaming, or did she say, "Ooooo, I wanted this!!" when she opened her Xmas box and found the unitard, as though she knew it was a possible gift beforehand? Shades of Chilltown alright.

I voted all my votes (for Joe) already and the show hasn't even aired here yet (hehehe) next I am going to make my hubby vote 10 on his PC too.

I think it would be more of a punishment in the ONE unitard for the whole week NO laundering...oh the STINK of it muhahaha

Anonymous said...

I voted for Joe 10 times on one email account and just might vote 10 more times for Joe on another email account! I really want him to be evicted Thursday.

Anonymous said...

From the way the feeds on another site are being posted it seems that there has been a shift in the house. I think the majority are going to be voting to evict Evel. Oh my goodness. :O This can't be happening. I so hope I am just reading all of this wrong. Should this happen I will be left scratching my head. Anyone that can help with this, I would appreciate any information.

I think Kail is pushing to evict ED due to that being her biggest competition. I don't think she has the votes though. She is trying awfully hard.

Hey Michele Here...anyone still up. I have just a quick question. What in the HECK is a JENUS MEMBER....I may be slow. Jackie you get a special place in heavan since you have to what that chick in the &*(% Unitard all week. I think I will have nightmares tonight.

AlbGlinka said...

Well at least it finally got interesting.

Amber's weakness is sad. Cam you imagine what my fave Janelle from BB5 and All-Stars would have said if Jen had tried bossing her around??? Jen would have ended up the one crying. I'm happy that Daniele seems to have it together.

dla said...

I voted to make Joe go away until my fingers were going to fall off! Although, I really would prefer to see SOMEONE ELSE go at this point...

ED deserves to stay, and Jensa Club needs to go home. Feh. She is making my skin crawl, and not many of them have had that effect on me over the years!

Albglinka, I completely agree! Janey would have torn Jensa to shreds before she knew what hit her! Oh how I long for the good old days when the characters were interesting!

anybodybuthillary, have you considered using anybodybutJEN through this season?!?

Anonymous said...

Did I hear wrong or did Jen say she put up Dick and Danielle because she didn't want anyone crude? crass? to win BB. Isn't she a friend of Mike Boogie? He was the most crass crude person even to have been on the show.

Anonymous said...

Who is Jen a nanny for? Whoever they are, if they are watching her on the program she'll be out of a job when she's out of the house.

pisgahscience said...

AGGGGGG....

Another Janelle mention....can we go one day without mentioning her....

my eyes......aggggg

hahahaha

No seriously....has any body got any real favorites to win? I still haven't set my mind on anybody yet.

In response to nancy in washington:
I believe I read somewhere that Jen was a nanny for Vanna White from Wheel of Fortune, but I might be mistaken. I'm almost cetain though that she at least mentioned her on the feeds and knows her in some capacity, but I agree whoever it is, after seeing her behavior on the show I would not want her around my kids anymore. God forbid they grow up to be as much of a "Jenius," as her.

Jackie S. said...

Donna @ 12:12 - That was him. I ask that no one visits any links to other sites left by anonymous posters. They will be removed. The kid is certainly obsessed.

Jackie S. said...

JR - You're right. She's the nanny for Vanna White's children. I never thought one way or another about Vanna White, but now I must question if she's been spinning that wheel a bit too much.

Anonymous said...

I saw the cut-up red thing on Jen this morning on the ShowToo, ghastly! she kept touching herself too. She really loves herself! Jackie - thanks for all the info, I don't get to catch all the shows, but your blog rocks!!

LYSS said...

Ok..1st things 1st..would someone please slap amber when she starts crying..come on..my hubby came in half way through the show and said she crying again why is it this time..my reply..the sky is blue and the grass is green..i'm so so so tired to watching her cry..

2nd..whoever out that damn unitard in the friggin box should be stuck in a room and forced to listen to holly and jessica talk for a month..**shudders** i think on ne other person it would have been funny..but jen just makes it jennoying..and she kept touching herself..what's up with that..and put some friggin panties on you nasty hooker..why would ne one want to wear the same thing for a week w/out panties..maybe she'll get crotch rott and have to be removed from the show..**one could only dream**

when she went into the room and say Nick and Daniel and was just standing there looking jenpiss'd (ok that one didn't work too well) can you say big baby..I don't have the feeds or showtoo so i don't know..has Nick made ne moves towards jen?? has he led her on in ne way?? or is this just another case of jen being jealous of something that she wants?? She needs to grow up..and get a life..and Vanna needs to rethink her nanny choice..

and again i have to say it..you gotta love dick..and daniele for standing up to her..it was great..i think that one day we need to just watch all the times that someone has stood up to jen..that would be great tv..

oh and i too voted alot for joe..=)

I am so over Amber already. I can't recall a moment when she hasn't either been crying, just finished crying, or just about to start crying. What Jen did to her was wrong, but Amber should have stood up for herself. I'm not a big Joe fan, but I have to admit he started to grow on me after last night's show. I loved how he stood up to Jen and told her off. Too bad he can't stay a little longer to go at it with her, but if its between him and E.D., then Joe has to go.

They finally showed a little confrontation between Jameka and Zach - from what I've been reading about the feeds, it seems like he really hates her and wants her gone. I wish BB would show us a little more about what's going on with those 2.

I vote for Joe to go asap. He gossips worse than the females and has always been most annoying.

I'm not sure if I'm liking ED more or is it because he slammed Jen right to her face. ED calls it like it is but he needs to exercise a bit more impulse control. I'm curious to know how bad he was handling the feud about $$$$ with his daughter. He seems to have deep feeling for Danielle as a father so there's much optimism regarding their relationship.

Amber's sobbing is over the top. She needs to learn to reasonably control her emotions. Remember what Mom used to say, if you keep making that face it's going to freeze that way. Amber looks like she's about to cry even when she isn't.

I can't find the words to express how much I dislike Jen. Is she our Aliho? Her mother must be humiliated because she put the photo of the two of them together on the floor because she didn't have any make-up on in that photo.
How superficial can this girl get?
I'm surprised Jen didn't try to put her name on the red unitard. She was too thrilled to wear it. This girl definitely has some issues. I'd better stop there or I'll sound like Dick and Jackie will have to bleep me. ;)

Nick better be careful with the "showmance" he's instigating. It can come back to bite him as it has in past seasons. Didn't Danielle say she does have a boyfriend? Wonder how serious of a relationship it is?

All in all, BB8 is capturing my interest more each episode.

Kudos to Jackie for all the live feed updates. It gives us, who don't have the live feeds, so much more info that we would never know.
