Celebrity Big Brother : Valentine's Day Show 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 this post out. As always, the real party is in the comments area -- join on in!

Oh. And, happy Valentine's Day!

Prayers to the latest whacko gun victims. Sigh.

We'll start by expecting the expected recap. Don't expect me to recap the recap!

Into the aftermath of Keshia going. Omarosa now understands the emotions when people leave the house. She also thinks that now she'll be on the block every nomination. 

Now a segment on Keshia's reasoning for wanting to go home. Of course, they wanted to backdoor Shannon. Keshia tells them that she would be in on the plan but really needs to go home ... like NOW. Brandi isn't understanding the breast milk situation at all. It's all about her needs, y'know. Even Omarosa (Nice Omarosa) thinks Brandi is out of line.

Shannon hasn't a clue that the original plan was to backdoor her. She thinks all is fine and dandy. After all, Keshia was Shannon's target anyway. Shannon and James make up despite Keshia's throwing Shannon under the bus. Both Shannon and James really think Marissa and Ross are with them. Okaaay ... 

HoH Comp time -- Cruise ship set up BB Celebrity Voyage. It's mini golf with big balls and mallets. Huge fans are on them. 

Brandi is up first. 5.56
Shannon 3.04 
Omarosa Out of running
Marissa Out of running 
Ari 2.18 
Metta Out of running
Mark Out of running
James Out of running by a few seconds.

Ari is the new HOH!

Shannon feels safe now. Uh-oh. She shouldn't. 

Both Omarosa and Shannon are thrilled that Ari won HoH. Only Omarosa should be. James think Omarosa and Metta need to go on the block. Shannon pretty much agrees with him. 

Metta continues to crack me up. I'm glad he's not the target and they're still on sending Shannon out. 

In the obligatory Omarosa/White House segment -- she says kind things about Omarosa and discusses how they can't make many changes in the buildings, so they do more interior decorating. 

Ross tried to have Ari go for a real backdoor plan with Omarosa and Metta on the block, then Shannon put up to replace one with the veto and no chance to get off the block.

But the consensus is to put James and Shannon on the block. Shannon is the real target. But if she saves herself, James is the secondary target and he can go.

They use Metta to keep Shannon from talking nominations with Ari. He plays napping. 

Shannon is starting to get a bit leery. She tells James that she's sure they're going up. She tells him that's she's ready to give up and go home. James tries to pep talk her. And now the tears come. 

Nominations Ceremony --
Ari nominates James and Shannon. Nothing personal, biggest competitors. 

The blog party post for The Amazing Race will be posted in a moment. Move on over if you watch it!
