Celebrity Big Brother: Season Premiere Blog Party



As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll be updating and live-blogging away the best I can. Refresh the post to get the latest news! For more information on how I'll be handling this season on the blog as well as the show schedule, check my last post out. As always, the real party is in the comments area -- join on in!

Since the season is so short, I'm not going to have a blog pool going for this one. 

Not sure if big boxy red dresses are best for Julie Chen. We're into the intros. Metta World Peace hasn't a clue about the show.  Man, they're dragging this out. Brandi, Metta, Ross, Mark, Ari go in first.

Shannon is a BB superfan. Hmm. Marissa's SON is the BB superfan. Omarosa is also a self-proclaimed BB superfan.

Finally, 20 minutes into the hour-long show, all the celeb hamsters are in the house. Interesting ... Shannon and Marissa are friends outside the house.

Brandi doesn't like "pretty boys." And Pretty Boy James doesn't like her.

Shannon and Omarosa scheme for a womens alliance along with Marissa. They go after the other women to join in. There are six women and five men. They have the numbers.

HoH competition! They're all dressed in tuxes. Award to "sexiest hg not on the block" -- it's a random pick by where one chooses to stand. Omarosa wins safety for the week and cannot compete.

Award Squeezin' - must squeeze hug their trophies, hang on tight. It's kind of like the hot dog holding comps in the past. The trophies raise. They're wearing goggles -- I'm anticipating a reason for that. 

Oh geez, it's into a song and dance around them with Paul, then Rachel, Jess and Cody in the audience. No, Paul can't sing. Eek. Jesse, Mr. Pectacular.

Marissa falls.

Then the rain starts.  Metta is out. 

Now goop is on them. Mark is down. Ross is out. Chuck is down. Ari is down. Keshia is down, then Brandi.

James tries for a deal with Shannon even though he's the shakier of the remaining two hanging. James slips! 

Shannon is the first HoH of the season!

They have to go into the house and each needs to grab a gift bag. And, we get a commercial. 

Julie tells them that Shannon is HOH for now. Someone's bag will allow them to recast and take over the role of HoH. And, it's "goodnight houseguests."

  2. Hi Jackie! How you feeling? Hi Vincent, I'll slip you some catnip.
    Thank you Jackie, for giving us a place to talk.

    I figured I'd watch one episode of this, then decide if I will watch the rest.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Hi! I’ve brought wine and snacks.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  16. Very interesting that these folks want to do this. They had to be paid a decent sum

    ReplyDelete
  17. Hi everyone, and Vincent to. =)

    Since I am an hour behind you I will have to rely on Jackie's updates and you all for if this is worth watching. Yes, you are the guinea pigs. lol

    ReplyDelete
  18. Omarosa got shot down!!

    ReplyDelete
  19. I jumoed right in before I said hello Jackie, Cincent and everyone!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Rochelle, I'm not sure it's his aging. It looks like bad plastic surgery

    1. Maybe a nose slimming but looks like just a lil too much cheek injections. Just creates sunken eyes- and worse, he has no volume in his hair on the sides to balance them out- and color that is cool but isn’t flattering. Add em all up- thats my best guess!

      Delete
  21. That was interesting of the secret friends being on the show!

    ReplyDelete
  22. I jumped right in before I said hello Jackie, Vincent and everyone

    ReplyDelete
  23. I have a feeling Omarosa will be the first one out. She's polarizing. She needs to pipe down a little.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Yes, poor Mark McGrath is on the “plastic surgery gone wrong” list...

    ReplyDelete
  25. I can't believe Omarosa's Apprentice season was 15 years ago. I remember AOL Community treated us (the community leaders) and staff to a private room screening party at Trump Tower for one of the episodes.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Way to go, Shannon. You kept the secret for like 5 minutes. And when you spilled, you spilled to OMAROSA!!! Effing brilliant.

    ReplyDelete
  27. why would she spill that out the gates lol

    ReplyDelete
  28. Women's alliances never work out. Ross hates Omarosa so much, she's targeted.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Hello, Jackie!

    You want to make my students laugh, just mention AOL.

    ReplyDelete
  30. OK, can we all say AA? Has she stopped drinking since she got into the house?

    ReplyDelete
  31. Hoe code... @@. Yeah, that’s girl power

    ReplyDelete
  32. i still have aol email lol

    ReplyDelete
  33. LOL Jon, I never had AOL, but I still have a MSN e-mail account. =)

    ReplyDelete

    1. I just got rid of my msn account. I had it for years! Too much spam though

      Delete
  34. I still use, AOL, Joe. It's user friendly to me. You can't use it to play games or anything like that, but I mainly use it for my e-mail.

    ReplyDelete
  35. and the conspiracy starts lol

    ReplyDelete
  36. Wow, good for her. LOL. I know that really made Ross mad.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Let's see, we've got 2 professional atheletes, a drunk, and two overweight celebrities...I wonder who's going to win?

    ReplyDelete
  38. fixed all ready by BB #5

    ReplyDelete
  39. This would be very hard. I'm surprised they don't slide down on it.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I still have an AOL account. I don't use the gateway anymore, they are discontinuing it unless you pay for it and I'm too cheap to pay. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  41. I thought the same thing, Barb. I know she would have been first one on the block.

    ReplyDelete
  42. WOW that was an intense court ordered cigarettes kills you commercial. Did that air coast to coast?

    ReplyDelete
  43. Yes, they've been running those anti-smoking ads more lately. Must be a new settlement.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Joe, I just really don't know how to use the other e-mails. I've had AOL for so long, it's ingrained in my head. We pay for it. Don't know how long I'll keep it up.

    ReplyDelete
  45. You can access aol email online without paying that's what I use

    ReplyDelete
  46. Actually, from what I've seen on their live feed teases, Omarosa seems to be getting along well with most, if not all, of the others.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Yes, these smoking commercials are part of a settlement.

    ReplyDelete
  48. like they had to trot out paul

    ReplyDelete
  49. Oh God!! I had hoped to never see Paul ever again

    ReplyDelete
  50. Could they make it any worse

    ReplyDelete
  51. Rachel i'm down with lol

    ReplyDelete
  52. Hahahahahaha. Gotta love Chuck Lidell. Ha

    ReplyDelete
  53. I'm going to call her Brandi Alexander

    ReplyDelete
  54. I'm not a Brandy fan. She is funny, though.

    ReplyDelete
  55. swoosh a dribble...oh, dear God

    ReplyDelete
  56. lol swooshadribble

  57. Hi to everyone and specially to Jackie & Vincent!! Little late but caught up I think LOL

    Trying to eat dinner and read..

    Squeegee

    ReplyDelete
  58. unsurprisingly, it's the 4 lightest people standing

    ReplyDelete
  59. The beauty queen is the one that was named miss universe by mistake.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Interestingly, for all omorosa’s Diva stunts, in every other moment I see her being friendly and helpful and chatty without the attitude. I know its an act but ... which behavior is the REAL O? what do you think?

    ReplyDelete
  61. Seriously, how did half of these people become famous?

    ReplyDelete
  62. Yeah Joe..this comp pretty much made for them

    ReplyDelete
  63. Omarosa has always been very smart. She's not to be underestimated. Her problem is testosterone. If you press her, she will come out swinging.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Yes, Cheryl, because they are largely just standing on the feet of the statue. Small feet, small mass.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Hi Rochelle, people who are close to her say she's very friendly and nice. She said working in the white house taught her a lot.....specifically not to trust the people you think are your side. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  66. Probably a little of both Rochelle

    ReplyDelete
  67. I hope Shannon stays in it.

    ReplyDelete
  68. I don't know how I feel about this Amazing Race partner swap. I wonder how they are going to work the elimination.

    I'll reserve judgment until I see what they actually do, but this is not Survivor. Shifting alliances serves no purpose. It could create some opportunities for teams to form alliances with other teams, but I kind of prefer my teams to be my teams.

    ReplyDelete
  69. How many evictions will they have a week?

    ReplyDelete
  70. I am wandering about that too Joe,because I have seen nothing about it.

    ReplyDelete
  71. There she goes. Omarosa is good at getting under people's skin.

    ReplyDelete
  72. I think the TAR swap has to be for just one challenge???

    ReplyDelete
  73. Ross needs to be in the girls alliance

    ReplyDelete
  74. Another commercial? WHAT? I guess they feel they don't have enough footage on these people. Do they get paid for this? Or does it all go to charity?

    ReplyDelete
  75. Ross hates doesn't like Omarosa. I really want the women to stay together. It usually does not happen, though

    ReplyDelete
  76. Oh no! There it goes. There's going to be a male HOH

    ReplyDelete
  77. Now on to TAR. I work tomorrow night, so I'll have to watch it on DVR.

    ReplyDelete
  78. See everyone, probably Friday! Thanks Jackie!! Now on to TAR!

    ReplyDelete
  79. Thanks Jackie =)

    Just coming on here. Thanks for the warning about Paul, Jessie so I won't be completely shocked and disgusted. lol

    ReplyDelete
  80. Liking this already! Hope Rossi goes far he is hunny!

    ReplyDelete
  81. Got a miss tomorrow but see y'all Friday.

    ReplyDelete
  82. thanks Jackie!!! see you guys later and have good night!!!

    ReplyDelete
  83. Oh, hell, no! Omarosa and Brandi? Both? I can't spend another minute of my life watching either one of them.
    Good thing you're here, Jackie....I'll spy until those two witches are gone.
    Love the Hairspray girl, always have!

    ReplyDelete
  84. I didn't watch...I'm proud of myself :) Omarosa got safety the first week without doing anything? Gee,who could have predicted the most well known of these overly available "celebrities" would get safety without even doing anything.@@ Kinda like a certain "vet" got it last year. @@ Just a coincidinky...I'm sure! (eyeroll)
