BB18: Live Feeds into Friday Night, Nominations - August 5

Life in the BB house

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Whirling Dervishes:
  • They slept way in this morning.
  • I'm talking around 2pm their time until they were up and about.
  • When I came home from work and looked in on the live feeds for the excitement, I found none.
  • Then I followed their example.
  • I took a nap.
  • I only planned to take an hour. I woke up almost five hours later. Oy!
  • As a result, I had to look back on flashback and catch the action and now my report is just about as timely as the BB hamsters getting up in the morning.
  • My apologies.
  • Ohh! Ohh! James got the care package! He can take out two votes in next week's (first, I assume) eviction.
  • He also got socks and cookies.
  • Zakiyah, not knowing she'd be later put on the block, "knew" James would get it.
  • I personally wish the fans had held off and gave him the immunity package. 
  • But that's just me.
  • Nicole told Corey that she thinks Natalie and James are America's favorites.
  • Well, in this mess of hamsters, I'm having trouble picking a favorite. I'd probably have to go with James. He generally means well and doesn't cuss every other word.
  • King Paulie thinks that if they want to get Bridgette out, they would need Natalie or Nicole to do it so they wouldn't look bad.
  • Paulie also thinks they should hand HoH to one of the girls to get Victor out.
  • @@
  • I think someone needs to win HoH and knock Paulie down a peg or two.
  • So, you know that Bridgette won't be going on the block this week!
  • Actually, as predicted ... Victor did Paulie's will -- Zakiyah and Michelle are on the block.
  • Tears and more tears.
  • Fine with me. Either can go.
  • I just wish someone would be able to break up Paul/Paulie. With them ruling every HoH directly or indirectly, it's going to be a boring August.

She can smile ... for now

Nice that he won HoH again

BB18: Live Feeds into Friday - August 5

Forget the bunny hat!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Two Hang Tough:
  • If you missed the HoH comp update post previous to this one -- the comp went to a rather epic battle between Natalie and Victor.
  • Natalie, much weaker and more battered, finally gave in and Victor became the HoH.
  • They had promised each other safety during the comp.
  • We'll see how that goes.
  • Paulie (who might as well be HoH each week) wants Zakiyah and Michelle on the block. He thinks they should be split up.
  • Meanwhile, Michelle cried to Zakiyah that she thinks she's been set up and will be going home this week.
  • Both Zakiyah and Michelle think that Paul had no idea that Da'Vonne would be voted out.
  • Zakiyah told Michelle that, if she wins veto, she'll pull her (Michelle) down.
  • Let's see how that goes.
  • They both think that Victor will put whoever Paulie wants on the block.
  • They probably have that one right.
  • In other news, Bridgette says she's never felt more hated than right now with Michelle and Zakiyah because she's still in the house.
  • Paul played it off that he was shocked at the Da'Vonne exit when asked about it by Michelle.
  • Michelle is sure Da'Vonne will think she flipped and James voted for her to stay.
  • Nah, that's not it.
  • But, remember, Michelle is Ms. Low Self-Esteem Gal. So, all that goes wrong, will come back to her as her fault.
  • Michelle cried.
  • What a surprise!
  • She went to Nicole for sympathy. "Why didn't you guys tell me you were voting Da'Vonne out? I would have done it! I'm going to go up on the block!"
  • Well, she just might be right with her personal doomsday predictions.
  • She needs to get her act together.
  • Although ... it appears Victor is leaning more towards a Zakiyah exit this week. Paulie is just fine with that.
  • Zakiyah went to Paulie for comforting. He comforted her. He cal lie really easily.
  • Nicole thinks that Zakiyah should have realized Paulie didn't want her (Z) specifically to win when he dropped right after she dropped. All he really cared about is that Z didn't win HoH.
  • Michelle wants James to go home.
  • Not that she has any say in the matter, mind you.
  • James, on the other hand, has no sympathy for Michelle. He thinks she feels entitled and has done little to nothing in the house.
  • So ... as I post this, it looks like Paulie er ... Victor will probably nominate Michelle and Zakiyah for eviction.

Lived through her misery

BB18: HoH Endurance Comp Update - August 4

Once the live feeds return, this post will be updated. Lately they've been coming back after the comp has completed. If the comp is still on when they come up, I'll include screen caps. If the feeds are blocked, I'll update the status (still blocked, whatever) every fifteen minutes.

10:02PM -- Feeds on. Bridgette and James sitting with Paul.


10:08pm ET - Corey out.

Have Nots are James, Bridgette and Corey.

10:10pm ET - Jeff Highlights feeds block
10:11pm ET - Back, all the rest still up.





10:17pm ET - Michelle starts to vomit while on the comp, down shortly after. Then she cries.





10:26pm ET -- Rest still up, Michelle still crying. Paul is holding an ice pack on the back of her neck.


10:35pm ET - Still just James, Bridgette, Corey and Michelle out. Nicole seems to be weakening.

10:36pm ET - Feeds block, then back a minute later.


10:41pm ET - Nicole down.

10:42pm ET - Natalie, Zakiyah, Paulie and Victor remain. Paulie keeps running his mouth shouting five hour comp and telling them to go faster.


10:50pm ET - Victor, Paulie, Zakiyah and Natalie still in it.

10:53pm ET - Zakiyah down. She asked for safety. We'll see about that. Paulie down right after her.

10:54pm ET - Victor and Natalie fighting for it. Both want to hear from their mothers. Natalie says it's the only kind of comp she could win.


11:07pm ET - Natalie and Victor still at it.

11:16pm ET - Natalie is really getting slammed into the hashtag. Victor has enough strength in his arms and hands to hold an arm out to cushion the blow. Pieces are falling off the hashtag. They've both promised safety to each other. Neither is giving up. Natalie is in rougher shape, though.

11:24pm ET - Feeds block then back, both still going.

11:35pm ET - Both still up. Victor still looking stronger than Natalie.

11:45pm ET - Both still up.

11:53pm ET - Natalie drops. Victor is HoH.

Let's get this party started!

Recap time!

Julie tells us it's Day 51 and PP (Paul and Paulie) are running the house. Either Bridgette or Da'Vonne will be evicted. Does one have the return ticket?

But, first ...
Da'Vonne is wondering why she's the pawn. Nicole wants her out. Paulie wants her out. Paulie tells Bridgette that the plan is on for Da'Vonne to go. Da'Vonne goes fussing to Paul. She thinks Bridgette is campaigning to stay. Da'Vonne wonders why Natalie or Nicole aren't up. Paul is defending his move. He insists to her that Bridgette will go home. He tells us he doesn't want it to be a tie.

Da'Vonne does not believe him. Michelle and Zakiyah think that Bridgette is going. They think Natalie will vote for her friend Bridgette to stay. But Natalie wonders if keeping Da'Vonne would be good for her game.

Whoops. When they were talking double eviction and Da'Vonne asked James who he'd put up, he said Bridgette and Victor. Oops. Da'Vonne caught the goof-up and knows that would mean she goes this week. Da'Vonne talks to Natalie and James asking them to have her back.

Paul's family will be on a segment tonight.

Finally, to the living room. Julie tells them all make it to the jury. Statements --
Bridgette - On the block because I partnered with Frank, loyal, thankful.
Da'Vonne - Thanks God, praying, told I was put as a pawn, prays there were no lies.

The votes to evict:
Paulie - Da'Vonne (Oh, he shaved the beard)
Zakiyah - Bridgette
Nicole - Da'Vonne
Michelle - Bridgette
Victor - Da'Vonne
Corey - Da'Vonne
James - Da'Vonne
Natalie - Da'Vonne

Da'Vonne is evicted from the house. The envelope reveal ... she has a one-way ticket. She's headed to jury.

HoH Competition --
A ring of discs on ropes -- Harsh Hashtags -- lifted, spun around, signs with harsh hastags hit them. First three to fall are Have Nots. Last one standing wins.

If it goes over show time, which it should, I'll set up a separate post for the reveal (at least).

Double eviction next week!

Internet trolls have arrived. All still in the comp as the show ends. The new post is up for the comp. Join me there.

BB18: Live Feeds into Thursday - August 4

His reign is coming to an end

 Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House Whacked-Out Wombats:
  • The long feeds block was indeed the halfway party.
  • BB gave them alcohol for it.
  • They also apparently had some music, which would be one reason we don't get the live feeds during it.
  • Zakiyah claimed she was tipsy.
  • I guess the alcohol was what made her sporadically molest Paulie on and off throughout the night.
  • Yeah, that was it.
  • What was that movie a few years back?
  • Oh, yeah. "He's Not That Into You."
  • When she walks around saying she's not wearing panties, it just makes her come across as trampy. She needs to stop that or not imbibe if she loses all inhibitions when she does.
  • The guys have serious concerns that it will be a double eviction this week.
  • It won't be. Julie would have told us. They love to hype those things up for ratings.
  • But, let the guys plan and panic about it. No skin off my nose.
  • Da'Vonne was somewhere, but not hanging out with the majority in the house. She's been studying things for the comp.
  • I don't think she needs to bother.
  • She's hoping that, when voted out, she'll be right back in with her envelope.
  • Well, she has a one in eleven chance of that.
  • She's already packed her bag so she won't have to worry about it pre-show.
  • Michelle has caught onto the fact that the girls are being knocked out one by one. But will they get together and work well against the guys? Nope.
  • That's what you get when kids play this game -- petty jealousies, etc.
  • Natalie wants James to throw HoH to either her or Michelle.
  • He said he would.
  • I'm pretty sure James will throw it to someone, not necessarily either of those two.
  • James doesn't want to win one until he needs to win one.
  • Zakiyah kept all but raping Paulie.
  • So not cool. Other people were in the room and all.
  • Da'Vonne took her aside and told her to put some pants on. 
  • Thank you, Da'Vonne.
  • So, she put shorts on and then went back atop Paulie.
  • Natalie and Da'Vonne were telling Michelle (Ms. Low Self-Esteem) how pretty she is and how older women will be jealous of her.
  • Say what?
  • I'm older. I'm not jealous of her. Most older women outside the house have their own lives and aren't into the petty jealousies and such the children in BB have going on.
  • Maybe they need to get an older crowd in there.
  • That would be nice.
  • Natalie thinks older women are jealous because they didn't get the relationship they wanted, they feel more insecure and they take things out on younger, cuter girls such as herself.
  • @@
  • I guess she's talking five years older or something along those lines.
  • They seriously need to stop having children in the house!
  • Oh, wait. I must be jealous, huh?
  • Oh geez. Now Nicole is molesting Corey.
  • At least she has clothes on.
  • Michelle is still thinking Bridgette is leaving this week.
  • Natalie knows better, but isn't letting on that James told her otherwise.
  • We started getting weird flashes and a few extended a few minutes Jeff Highlights. Someone is hitting the wrong switch and meant to give us fish, methinks.
  • Paulie is mad because Zakiyah gave him a hickey.
  • Again, children in the house!
  • There you go for now ... the plan is still Backdoor Da'Vonne. She pretty much knows it, so it won't be a blindside. The only one who might be shocked would be Michelle.

That spoon needs to be taken away

Pretty, we're so pretty

BB18: Live Feeds into Wednesday Evening - August 3

Spooning in bed

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Zany Zipheads:
  • My apologies for not posting a morning feeds report today. I'm a bit under the weather.
  • Da'Vonne has vowed, that if she stays, she will shake some things up.
  • Now, if she could knock down the Pauls, I'd say stay.
  • But I think she'd be more likely to go after Nicole and Corey.
  • Da'Vonne told Michelle that Paulie is playing Derrick's game. Michelle told her she should tell him that.
  • Um. No. Paulie is NOT playing Derrick's game. 
  • He should be that lucky.
  • Derrick never won comps, didn't push his macho around. Paulie tends to do both.
  • The Da'Vonne Backdoor Plan is getting figured out by Da'Vonne (who thought it possible all along), Zakiyah and Michelle.
  • Not that they can do much about it at this point.
  • Da'Vonne decides to go for the heartstrings. She told James it would hurt her feelings if he voted her out.
  • BWAHAHAHA!
  • Are people signing up for BB worried about hurt feelings? Nope. They SHOULD be there for the money.
  • James told her he wants to win.
  • As should be why he's there.
  • Paulie and Zakiyah made up. Da'Vonne thinks he just did it for game.
  • Well, duh.
  • Da'Vonne is struggling for shreds of hope. She thinks Paul is shooting straight with her and is on her side, but Paulie is not.
  • Michelle disagrees. She thinks Paulie is ruling Paul.
  • James had a long talk with Natalie in the storage room. He told her that voting for Da'Vonne to go was best for his game. He said he knows that Natalie likes Da'Vonne, but it might be best for her, too. However, he made it clear that Paul doesn't want a tie. If it comes to a tie, Paul would vote out Da'Vonne and it's very possible the games of those who forced the tie might be in trouble.
  • Da'Vonne decided to talk to Nicole, like that will do a lot of good.
  • She said that people are talking about her.
  • Nicole said she's heard her name tossed around a lot.
  • A lot of the tossing has been done by Da'Vonne!
  • But, does she admit that?
  • Nope. It's always "other people."
  • Da'Vonne said Frank planted seeds about her.
  • For Nicole, she actually put on a good show -- telling Da'Vonne she's heard so many things, she doesn't know what to believe anymore.
  • She played dumb.
  • Nicole told Da'Vonne that everything is good for Thursday.
  • It is.
  • It just isn't for Da'vonne. It's good for Nicole.
  • Michelle's paranoia and self-esteem issues have her crying again. Y'know, every time someone whispers, it has to be about HER.
  • Supposedly she's a "superfan." She knew what she was getting into. If she's such a fragile snowflake, why did she get on the show?
  • Paulie consoled her.
  • The feeds have been blocked with Jeff highlights for a real long time now. At first I thought set-up for an HoH practice. But it's been too long for that. With those, they usually block while explaining the how-to, then the feeds see the practice.
  • Maybe it's the halfway party.
  • Woot woot.

I'm doomed.

I've got to do what's best for me.

We need to talk. Um. Okay.

That bunny hat has gotten around

Tears, tears, tears.

BB18: PoV Episode Blog Party - August 3



Hamster watchers ready? Let's get this show going! 

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll be constantly updating this entry. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area!

My apologies for not posting a live feeds report this morning. I've been a bit under the weather. I will be posting one later tonight!

On with the show ...

After the recap, we pick things up at the end of the nominations ceremony. Bridgette feels like being nominated is a slap in the face. Da'Vonne is suspicious because Paulie's on the block instead of Nicole. She tells Bridgette to target Nicole. Bridgette ain't buyin' what she's selling. 

She goes to talk to Paul. He tells her that both she and Paulie are pawns and the real target is Da'Vonne. She seems to buy that more (even though he really wants her out).

Oh my. Paulie and Zakiyah are drifting apart. He thinks she gets too jealous. He and Paul are worried because Zakiyah has been privy to a lot of information from them. She cries to Michelle. He tells Paul he'll put her on the block if he wins HoH. She gets him to talk with her. It didn't go well.

Oh geez. Michelle hit Paul over a prank and then cried that she hurt him.

Veto players pick time -- Paul randomly selects Corey. Paulie gets Houseguest's Choice and goes for Victor. Bridgette gets Natalie.

Da'Vonne goes to Paul and Paulie dropping Nicole's name as a replacement if Bridgette saves herself. Paulie runs to Nicole and Corey about it and they agree she (Da'Vonne) needs to go.

Veto comp time! Nicole is hosting. It's an athletic set-up. Ready, Set, Whoa Track Meet. When the sign says GO, must run down track and hit a finish button. There will be decoy words in place of the GO on the screen at times. We've seen this before.

Corey eliminated first due to a false start. Bridgette out next because she was the slowest racer. Natalie out next, same reason. Paul out next. Paulie wins the Power of Veto, beating Victor in the last heat.

Da'Vonne actually thinks she can convince them to vote out Nicole. Ha.

Stupid Paulie tells Zakiyah that Paul will probably put Da'Vonne on the block in his place. She like Da'Vonne. She doesn't think Da'Vonne will go home over Bridgette. She also badmouthed Paul to Paulie. Not the brightest bulb in the pack.

Oh geez ... now Paul feels he needs to hint to Da'Vonne that she's going on the block. He tells her that he needs to put someone up who won't freak out. He's trying to cover his bases so if she comes back, she won't target him. He assures her that Bridgette will go home.

She doesn't really go for that.

PoV Meeting time. Paulie saves himself. Paul puts Da'Vonne on the block, saying he needed someone calm and confident on the block. Nicole has trouble not guffawing.

BB18: Live Feeds into Tuesday Evening - August 2

When you smile, the whole world smiles with you

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Boring Bad-Mouthers:
  • The big thrill of the day was that the HoH camera out to play.
  • And fun was had by all.
  • Or most.
  • Or some.
  • Bridgette and the boys fussed as they cleaned the kitchen.
  • You realize they live with slobs ... and ants.
  • That seems to be the norm from season to season.
  • Paul thinks his "fans" will greet him with calls of "Friendship!"
  • Um. No. Maybe I'm just not a fan. I'm kind of sick of it. 
  • James told Nicole he was thinking of throwing a sympathy vote for Da'Vonne to stay.
  • He doesn't want her to go unanimously.
  • Nicole warned him that would be dangerous. And, they know she has at least two votes going her way -- Zakiyah and Michelle will vote for Bridgette to go.
  • James said Natalie will vote with him whatever he wants.
  • He later told Natalie that it's Da'Vonne going this week.
  • She feels sorry for her, but will vote with the majority.
  • I tell ya ... it's boring.
  • James also said that he intends to put Nicole up on the block (if he gets HoH) when Natalie complained that Nicole kept throwing her under the bus.
  • Now, he's told others differently.
  • Just earlier he told Nicole, etc. that he would nominate Bridgette and Victor, didn't matter who won PoV or if used, one would go home.
  • I've said it before -- Da'Vonne is no BB dummy. She knows the backdoor is coming.
  • She asked James to please tell her so that she could enjoy her last few days in the house.
  • He played dumb. "Well, gee. I don't know. I'll check and get back to you."
  • @@
  • That's all for now. I think I have to go watch some paint dry.

BB18: Live Feeds into Tuesday - August 2

The thrill is gone.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Loquacious Louts:
  • The ruse goes on.
  • The Backdoor Da'Vonne plan is in full swing.
  • Michelle, Zakiyah, Natalie and Da'Vonne probably realize deep down inside that that's the plan.
  • But, with their rose-colored glasses and the lies people keep telling them, they think there might actually be an Evict Bridgette Plan still running.
  • Oops.
  • They're wrong.
  • Paulie has assured Bridgette they have the votes to keep her.
  • The Rose-Colored Glasses Bunch do think Bridgette isn't acting nervous enough.
  • Da'Vonne also wonders whatever happened to the plan to get rid of Victor as soon as possible since he had already been voted out.
  • Don't worry, Day. That will be coming. 
  • Once they get rid of all the women in the house, that is.
  • Victor, for as close as he once was with Paul, has lost flavor with his old bud. Paul has adopted Paulie in his place.
  • Victor and Paulie whined and fussed about how sloppy the girls are in the bathroom and kitchen.
  • Michelle says Paul stole her plan to wear the HoH robe all the time when HoH. She says he's a copycat.
  • Well, Michelle ... first you do have to win HoH. You realize that, right?
  • Mostly amicable small talk into the wee hours.
  • Corey and Nicole are cuddling, snuggling and whatever together.
  • James must be asleep, as is Victor.
  • Da'Vonne, Michelle, Natalie and Zakiyah are in the bathroom basically not talking game.
  • Paul and Paulie are playing pool, not talking game.
  • And, I'm out ... for now.

Yeah, Bridgette will be going this week!

We're so pretty

You think they're going to pick us off?

Oh my gosh ... where's his robe?

They said the plan is still on. Hmm.

BB18: Live Feeds into Monday Evening, PoV Re-nom - August 1

Sad cowgirl

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Daytrippin':
  • Zakiyah asked Nicole why Da'Vonne kept asking why she (Z) couldn't go on the block (as a pawn, supposedly) instead of her (Da'Vonne).
  • Well, duh, Da'Vonne ... they want to backdoor you, silly girl!
  • Paul went and told Da'Vonne that she would go up in place of Paulie when Paulie pulled himself down with the veto.
  • I thought they weren't supposed to tell people these things. Haven't they looked it up in the rule book or been spoken to about doing the very same thing in past seasons?
  • Or, have I lost my mind?
  • (That's always a possibility.)
  • Michelle isn't happy that Paul is putting Da'Vonne on the block.
  • Hey, she should be happy that it's not her!
  • But, neither Michelle nor Da'Vonne are all that dumb at the game. I think they can both sniff out a backdoor here.
  • Part of the reason that Michelle is ticked off about it is because, when she did what they wanted and didn't use the veto last week, they promised her it would be Bridgette going out this week.
  • Da'Vonne wanted to know why it couldn't be Natalie instead of her. Or Nicole.
  • Because they want to backdoor YOU, Da'Vonne.
  • So, there was no real suspense over the PoV meeting.
  • Paulie took himself down.
  • Da'Vonne is now on the block with Bridgette.
  • Paul kept up trying to convince Da'Vonne that Bridgette is still the target.
  • Yeah, right.
  • Because Paul went and told her beforehand, Da'Vonne didn't go off the wall crazy.
  • As for the Backdoor Da'Vonne Plan -- the people involved are Paul (no vote), Paulie, Corey, Nicole, Bridgette (no vote), James (will go with the crowd).
  • Not privy to the plan -- Da'Vonne (no vote), Zakiyah and Michelle.
  • I think things will heat up a bit before Thursday ...

Macho Macho Man

Keep the mandana on, Jersey Boy

Why me?

BB18: Live Feeds into Monday - August 1

Oh, Paulie. Your hair looks so stupid.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Dizzy Dames and Dudes:
  • Paul and Paulie want to get closer to Michelle and Nicole to get intel about each other from them.
  • Paul and Paulie have decided they need to be the final two and only totally trust each other.
  • They feel the only other two in the house they can trust to any extent are James and Corey (if not for his Nicole connection).
  • I notice they didn't bring up James's Natalie connection. They obviously don't think of her as a threat.
  • I also notice that they don't have Victor in the mix there.
  • They feel he might blow things up for them.
  • Paul thinks that Zakiyah is suspicious. 
  • He's also worried that Da'Vonne just might run around telling tales once she goes up on the block. 
  • What Paul might better worry about is the fact that most of the fans mock him and he'll be a good candidate for the Witless Protection Program after the season ends. 
  • Paulie has his own suspicions about James. He thinks that James is throwing comps and playing a Derrick game -- winning only when he has to.
  • Michelle told Zakiyah that Paulie is "becoming Frank."
  • Hey, he was becoming Frank since the beginning of the season, I say!
  • Zakiyah and Michelle are worried that Bridgette will stay and win HoH, them go after the girls.
  • Y'think?
  • For a change, Nicole was a bit close-mouthed when Zakiyah and Michelle asked her if she'd vote out Bridgette. She gave a noncommittal "if that's what the house wants" answer.
  • Then Nicole ran to Paul to report that Michelle told her they need to keep Da'Vonne in because Bridgette would put Zakiyah and her (Michelle) on the block.
  • She told him that she played dumb like anyone could be going up on the block and they needed to stop acting sketchy.
  • Lots of small talk went on. Michelle thinks they're all so smart because they all have college degrees. That doesn't say much for the state of college education these days, does it?
  • Paul continues the guise of asking for replacement nominees. Michelle said that she would go up if she had to.
  • She's thinking Bridgette is still the target.
  • Paul obviously wants Da'Vonne to volunteer to go up, thus getting less "blood on his hands" when she goes out the door. After all, she volunteered and he didn't have a vote! Good luck with that, Beard Boy.
  • Da'Vonne?
  • Where is Da'Vonne?
  • She wasn't around much at all with anyone in the late night hours.
  • She probably thinks not being around people is the only way to control her mouth.
  • It should be interesting after the PoV meeting today ...

What? No HoH robe? Put out a BOLO!
