Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Feeds, HoH into Tuesday - Feb. 5

Someone's in the kitchen with Dina

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Late Night HoH:

• Once again, the feeds were blocked for a number of hours after the live eviction show.
• Yep, it was the HoH comp we weren't allowed to see.
• When they came back on, Tom had a tux on from the comp.
• They were talking about Omarosa -- she apparently hosted the HoH comp, but I'm not sure what they actually did.
• The big news is that TOM is the new HoH!
• That's good and bad, y'see.
• If he didn't win, he'd likely go home next.
• However, since he did win, he can't compete for the next HoH and is likely to go home. He only bought a couple days.
• While I think he's most deserving (either him or Tamar of those left in the house) to win, from the talk I've been seeing they are treating the show like a popularity contest. It seems like if he makes the final two, they'd vote for whoever wasn't Tom.
• Oh, well.

Tom rereads his HoH letter

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Eviction, Etc. Show Blog Party - Feb. 4

I don't know how they're going to fit everything into an hour! Let's see … the last aired show ended at the eviction of Joey. That means that we will have the HoH comp (taped the other day), nominations (yesterday in real life) plus the veto comp (which hasn't happened yet so that should be live) and live eviction. Oh my.

Chamster watchers ready?

Ah, Julie is wearing royal blue tonight -- my favorite color and it looks good on her! We're into Previously on …

I like how they say LIVE when the HoH was indeed played after the live show on Friday. 

Julie tells us although the vote was unanimous, the house is far from united. Tamar tells us that she couldn't vote out Kandi because they recently made up. She's also worried that she's the lowest in the alliance and needs allies. It turns out that the girls were going to keep Joey but it was Tamar switching it up last minute. They knew they didn't have enough votes without her, so they ended up voting Joey (which is what Tom/Kato wanted).

Tamar doesn't trust Natalie or Lolo and wants to keep Kandi on her side. She also wants the others to focus on Tom and Kato. She doesn't want Kandi (or herself) making waves and becoming targets.

HoH time. Tom, outgoing HoH, can't compete. So, he and Kato need Kato to win. Picture Imperfect, find something wrong with BB's favorite magazine covers. It's a face-off kind of comp. Three covers to see.

Random draw Ricky and Tamar - Ricky out.

Tamar chooses Kato and Kandi to face-off. Kandi out.
Kato chooses Lolo and Natalie - Natalie out.
Lolo chooses Dina and Kato - Dina out.
Tamar and Lolo - Lolo out.
Tamar and Kato - TAMAR WINS HOH!! Of course, she's happily dramatic about it.

Nominations ceremony -- Tamar nominates Kato, then Tom. She says Kato is a big threat, Tom is a threat. Not personal, it's a game.

She tells us she knows she needs to get rid of some of her shade-mates, roommates. She tells Kandi that she would put up Natalie or Lolo if one gets pulled off. Kandi is already scheming for a Natalie gone if one of the guys come down. Dina and Kandi are with Tamar. 

Live veto comp -- Lolo, Dina and Kandi are the additional three.

They have to watch the stage for a special performance. It's GALLAGHER the comedian! I didn't know he was still around! Yes, he's smashing food. He was Blue Man Group before they were blue!

They will be asked questions on the performance. Smashing Success. True or False questions. One point for every right answer. Seven questions. Most points win.

1. All right
2. Tamar, Dina, Lolo and Kandi right
3. All right
4. Tom wrong again, all the rest right.
5. Lolo, Tamar and Kato right
6. Lolo only one right, has six points
7. LOLO wins PoV

Hmm … from the talk after the comp, some are confusing Gallagher with Carrot Top. Sigh. I feel old.

Veto meeting time. Lolo does not use the veto. 

Julie says she can't tell them who won the Superbowl. She then tells them the power awarded one person has now expired and went unused.

Live vote and eviction --
Tom - Amazing seeing Gallagher. Lot of fun, thanks people. Crazy, haven't been outside in over 20 days. Cheering for you all, especially Kato.
Kato - What Tom said. Carl Reiner wrote Enter Laughing. I will exit laughing, had so much fun. Thanks, loyalty is key, loyal to Tom. Vote with your heart.

The votes to evict:
Ricky - Kato
Kandi - Kato
Dina - Kato
Lolo - Kato
Natalie - Kato

Lolo blew it that they knew the Superbowl winner. (They had a party yesterday.)

Kato is gonzo. Sigh. I liked the dude.

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Feeds, Nominations - Sunday, Feb. 3

A different look every half-hour!

Here's the latest from inside that Celebrity BB House of Froot Loop Dinguses:

• For the most part, today's been a bit of a day off so far for them.
• Sure, the screen in the living room read "Nominations Today" but that could have all been predicted the moment Tamar became HoH.
• Yep, she put Tom and Kato on the block.
• No surprise there.
• Before the nominations Tom wanted to talk to a producer to tell Tamar she can't lie in her nominations speech.
• He still has a bug up his bonnet about being called a bully.
• He didn't get to talk to them and it wouldn't have made any difference if he did.
• They can say whatever they want.
• It's Big Brother, not Truth or Dare.
• BB threw them a little Superbowl party with cupcakes and a card which said Rams and Patriots.
• Isn't that going against the rules of outside news?
• Hmm.
• Not too much going on. They seem to think the veto comp might be tonight.
• With the wacky schedule, I'm lucky to know when the shows air on television!

Finally not on the block

Tom mingles

Kato makes a show with Snapchat glasses

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Feeds into Sunday - Feb. 3

The power has shifted

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Celeb Wannabees:

• As you know from my last quick update, we have a new HoH.
• The comp was blocked to the live feeds, but we know it couldn't have been any haunted or scary.
• That's because Tamar won HoH.
• Kato and Tom know they're likely to be put on the block.
• Tom is trying to convince Kato and himself that they might have a chance. He wants to try to smooth things over with Tamar and the others.
• He's also trying to convince Kato that if they both are on the block, he (Tom) will be the target, not Kato.
• Meanwhile, Kato's tune could be 'It Takes a Worried Man'
• Kato, stop singing!
• Now, apparently Kandi aided Kato in the comp.
• Ricky is finding that very unsettling. He and Lolo went on to Tamar that Kandi didn't appreciate being saved twice, hasn't done anything in the game.
• Both said they want the winner to be based on gameplay and Kandi has done nothing, but has no blood on her hands.
• Hmm … is a Tom/Kato nominations so set in stone?
• For what it's worth, Kandi is spending more time with Tom now.
• Tamar pooh-poohed the Kandi talk. She said Kandi was only mad that she (Tamar) won HoH and she didn't. She said that Kandi only wants to win so she can gloat.
• Hmm.
• Kandi told Tom that everyone is acting crazy and untrustworthy.
• Welp, that's what Big Brother will do to you! Perhaps she should have researched the game more!
• Heh. Lolo said she didn't try for the HoH because she has no one who will send her a letter. Why am I not surprised? While Tamar may be over the top, Lolo seems to have literally no people skills at all. 
• Tom continued to mingle while Kato kind of exiled himself a bit. I don't think that's the best move for him and hope he comes out of his funk. He's better than that!
• In a talk with him, Tamar told Tom that people thought he was bullying them last week and he should apologize to them.
• Okay. I can't figure Tamar out. 
• Ricky joined in on that bandwagon and Tom claimed the cameras will show he didn't bully anyone.
• Both Tom and Kato think they need to steer clear of Ricky more than anyone else.
• Yup. He will do his best to manipulate the others to the benefit of his own game.
• I really don't think the girls see that. But Ricky has told us in DR sessions on the show and Tom/Kato have him figured out.
• Interesting … while there seems to be an actual girls alliance, both Kandi and Dina were scheming how to save Tom or Kato.
• We got the HoH room reveal and all the ensuing loud squealing from Tamar.
• I think it's likely that Tamar will nominate Kato and Tom.
• However, she can be unpredictable.
• It's a waiting game for now.

Tamar reads her HoH letter

Will Kandi actually not be on the block?

A worried man

Thinks he can sway people?

Joey said it all

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Feeds - New HoH! - Feb. 2

Ready for some fun?

This is just a brief report. The live feeds were blocked for a few hours after the live show ended. Well, more than a few hours, but who's counting? We did not see this HoH comp play out.

But we know the winner.

Tamar. Yes, you heard me. Tamar is the new HoH. I can't imagine what's ahead for us. Batten the hatches.

Do you think she'll get HoH-itis?

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Eviction Show Blog Party - Feb. 2

A Saturday night eviction? Yep! And, we will be seeing the taped PoV comp leading into it, too. That won't give us a heck of a lot of time for the drama in the house … or will it?

As the show airs here on the East Coast I'll be live-blogging and constantly updating this entry. Refresh the page to get the latest! As always, The real party is in the comments area -- join in on the fun!

Here is the updated Lifeguard Glenn pool standings --

Glenn - Natalie Eva Marie
SueGee - Natalie Eva Marie

Ready for some chamsters? 

Yep, the eviction will be live but the rest? Nuh-uh. Previously on goes on.

I'm not used to Julie being dressed in light blue. She seems to usually wear black or shades of red.

Tamar is joyous … Tom has no clue who has the power. Of course, he put Joey and Kandi on the block thinking one has the power. But his real plan is to backdoor Ricky. Joey thinks he's the target.

Ricky, Tom and Kato talk. They all say they don't have the power. Ricky tells them he thinks Tamar has it because she's been acting differently. Tom still thinks Ricky has it.

Lolo is getting increasingly ticked off at Tom. He tells her he thinks they need to backdoor him. Lolo thinks they can use Ricky and get him out later. Lolo goes and tells Ricky that Tom thinks he has the power. She says to us it's because she's returning a favor.

Natalie talks to Ricky, too. He tells her not to use the veto, but to act like the five are still together -- Tom, Kato, Natalie, Lolo and Ricky.

POV time - Natalie, Lolo and Dina were the three randomly chosen. They're dressed in football gear. Score three field goals, knock linebacker down. They have to spin, then try to knock him down. Kick the Competition.

Always fun to see them "drunk" trying to complete a task!

Lolo challenges Dina first. Dina out.
Joey challenges Tom. Joey out.
Kandi challenges Tom. Kandi out.
Natalie challenges Tom. Tom out.
Natalie and Lolo. Lolo out.
NATALIE wins Power of Veto!

She tells us that she won't use the PoV and thus will save Ricky from the backdoor.

Time for the POV meeting. If Natalie doesn't use it, Tom and Kato will know they're betrayed. Tom is worried, as he should be. Natalie does NOT use the veto -- Kandi and Joey remain on the block. She claims she wants to respect the HoH and leave the nominations the same. 

Joey is taking things well. Tom think the alliance is dead. Well, duh. Ricky says Natalie and Lolo must now act to make Tom and Kato think they're all still aligned. Natalie is playing dumb, saying that they didn't tell her what they wanted. Ricky tells us that he has plans for revenge. Tom doesn't trust the three, none of them. Kato agrees.

Here comes the drama! Joey thinks Tom is unnecessarily paranoid. But Joey thinks he can take a proactive step and get the people who don't trust Tom to keep him (Joey). Natalie is eating it up like candy. (No, not like Kandi since that would mean she goes.)

Kato isn't paranoid. He knows they're after him. He thinks he will win HoH. He starts with Natalie and Lolo, quasi-threatening their safety in the house. Lolo stomps off when Tom comes in. And a shouting brouhaha ensues! Lolo screams and screams. Fun, fun, fun!

The live vote and eviction next, into commercial.

To the living room --

Kandi - Used to giving speeches. Misses family but wants to stay. I am playing the game.
Joey - Hi to family. Flattering. Vote with you mind not your heart. Thank you.

The votes to evict:
Lolo - Joey
Kato - Joey
Natalie - Joey
To commercial …
Tamar - Joey
Dina - Joey
Ricky - Joey

It's unanimous. Joey is gone!

He handles it very well, hugging them all. He's hilarious mocking Lolo in his Julie interview! 

HoH, PoV and eviction live on Monday night.

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Feeds into Saturday Night - Feb. 1

All in the body language

Here's the latest from inside that Celebrity Big Brother House of Cray-Cray Day:

• With the plan to backdoor Ricky foiled by their alliance member Natalie (not using the veto), Tom and Kato think that Joey would be the best to get out of the nominees.
• They think Kandi is less of a threat.
• BUT … Ricky, Lolo and Natalie want Kandi out.
• Tom went to Kandi, telling her that the others wanted her voted out while apologizing, saying it was never his plan.
• She's shocked Ricky would rather keep Joey.
• No, no ... Tom … do NOT call a house meeting!
• Tom called a house meeting.
• He should know that those things never go over well.
• Ricky lit into Tom telling him he's screwed up everything and calling him a "fake ass dude" who can't be trusted.
• Lolo cursed out Kato.
• Natalie screamed at Tom.
• Kato and Tom were all but drawn and quartered.
• I sat and ate popcorn watching it.
• Heh.
• Things did calm down.
• It still looks like Kandi will go tomorrow night.
• Tom, who seems to have self-esteem issues to begin with, is thinking he's played the game horribly wrong because everyone is so angry at him.
• Kato still loves him, though.

Lighting into Tom

Ricky called me a "fake ass dude."

Wake me up when you Lolo!

Maybe I need to get out of here

I really want to draw hair on his head

Team Bromance … heehee

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Feeds into Friday - Feb. 1

So demure, so reserved, so quiet. Ha.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Who's With Whom:

• Tom is too easily excited and paranoid to be an effective HoH.
• He's so worried about who might have won the power that he's handling things badly within his own alliance.
• While it's obvious Kato won't desert him, Natalie and Lolo were already a bit irked with him and Kato.
• Lolo, in particular, seems to have a thing about others making decisions and her having no serious input. It made for the Ryan clash and now with Tom/Kato.
• Tom really wants to backdoor Ricky if the veto (won by Natalie) is used.
• Meanwhile, Peripheral Rick has worked his way in with both Lolo and Natalie and he's even working on Kato and Tom.
• The nominations were Joey and Kandi, supposedly because Tom thought one of them had won the power.
• Before the veto meeting, Tom told Kato that if no one used the power and Natalie did not use the veto, it would show that Natalie/Lolo were no longer in an alliance with them.
• They know that both of the women are advocating NOT backdooring Ricky. 
• Kato warned Dina that she might be a replacement nominee. Now she's worried about bills she left unpaid and paying for somewhere to stay for a week to wait for the finale.
• Couldn't her daughter spot her some funds? Sheesh! 
• She not on a target list at the moment anyway.
• All ended up moot, though -- Natalie did NOT use the veto and the nominations remain the same.
• Because neither Joey nor Kandi used the power at the veto meeting, now Tom thinks Tamar or Ricky must have it.
• Well, one does. But keep in mind they have no clue what the power is. Most are thinking it's like Tyler's power in the last BB season (which most watched in sequester).
• We know Tamar has it. But she is smart enough not to blab about it. She blabs about everything else, but not the power.
• Despite his apparent friendship with Kandi, that's the one Ricky is telling Kato/Tom needs to go.
• Tom and Kato think Natalie/Lolo want Joey out.
• Now, all of a sudden the alliance is Tom, Kato, Ricky, Lolo and Natalie once again.
• I don't think Peripheral Rick is sincere with them.
• I also don't think Lolo can work well with the guys.
• Ricky pushes his agenda to get Kandi out.
• Yet now they're the Fun Five. Okaaaay …
• But Kato sees through them. He tells Tom that they can't trust Ricky and the girls are lying.
• Now, that's one tight alliance, huh?
• What does Tom do? Well, he goes and tells Joey everything -- how his original plan was to backdoor Ricky, how the girls wanted Joey out and on and on.
• As Tom is doing that, Kato is working on Dina.
• Dina tells him that they (Lolo/Natalie) screwed over Ryan/Jonathan and now they're doing it to him and Tom.
• Well, she does have a point. I think it's more Lolo calling the shots for her and Natalie but the result is the same.
• Kandi started working on Dina, too. Her cause has nothing to do with the girls -- she wants Dina to vote out Joey, not her.
• Well, duh.
• Minor kerfuffles, mini-dramas and worries ensue. Kato thinks he told too much to Dina and doesn't really trust her. Dina thinks everyone is targeting her although she's not on the block. Kandi is upset because Dina didn't automatically support her. Lolo thinks she has no alliance with Tom because he's doing a "guys life" thing. (She does seem to have issues about men!) Tamar wastes no time jumping on her anti-Tom bandwagon. Tom tells Dina the original plan was for veto to be used for a Ricky backdoor but Natalie refused to use it.
• Tom thinks, since the power wasn't used at veto, it will be used Friday and he will have to nominate someone else.
• He's so wrong and way too paranoid about this. Kato has tried to quell the worries, but …!
• It's all a ball of confusion.
• And on it goes.

Honestly now, pink cowgirl look?

And this one looks like a witch hat!

Laundry service packages in storage room

Joey should have joined an alliance

What? Maid service, too? (No.)

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Feeds into Thursday - Jan. 31

Playing everybody

 Here's the latest from inside that BB House of Celebrity Stew:

• They were awakened and the feeds got cut, apparently to inform them that veto would be played.
• Tamar, so far keeping her power under wraps, ranted to her new buddy Natalie that Tom just better not put her on the block!
• I've said before that, while she can be all that drama and annoying, she knows the game. She wants to hold out as long as she can, saving the power as a last resort.
• One thing on her side is that she's created so many problems in the house that no one would think America would give her the power.
• They don't know the Twitterverse very well, do they?
• Ricky proposed that he, Kandi, Joey and Tamar should work together as they aren't in any sort of alliance.
• He is very aware that he might be a backdoor plan for Tom/Kato.
• Of course, from what I've seen of Peripheral Rick, he will use the others for his own self and drop 'em when the time comes. He's pretty ruthless in the game and definitely playing only for himself … as it really should be.
• Meanwhile, Team Fun is showing cracks in its structure.
• Lolo and Natalie think that Tom and Kato are telling them what to do rather than working with them.
• Now, that was the same issue Lolo had with Ryan and Jonathan, right?
• Hmmm.
• Lolo thinks Joey should go before Ricky. But the boys are thinking Ricky first.
• I personally think Ricky is more dangerous to leave in the game, mainly because he plays everyone while Joey tends to be more honest in his own game.
• Tom is very worried that Ricky will put them -- Tom and Kato -- on the block together if he (Ricky) wins HoH.
• I think he's absolutely right. Ricky knows those would be the two to target.
• Uh-oh! Natalie and Lolo tell Ricky of the backdoor plan to oust him!
• There goes Team Fun!
• Now, Ricky already guessed the plan, but now he has confirmation!
• It's looking like Joey, Ricky, Natalie, Tamar and Lolo will work together to keep both Ricky and Joey safe.
• The plot thickens!
• But, wait … Natalie and Lolo go back with Kato and Tom and they're a Team Fun again?
• Maybe.
• Anyway, they all agree to wait until they see how veto plays out before making any decisions.
• Hmm.
• Then there was the veto comp, blocked to the live feeds.
• They were all in football gear. Was this a slam dunk for NFL Ricky?
• Nope.
• Natalie won the Power of Veto.
• What will she do with it?
• She and Lolo are still on an anti-Tom kick. They think he's controlling. Lolo is also worried about backdooring people as she thinks she could be next.
• Right now, I'm not sure what she will do at all. She knows if she uses it, Tom will backdoor Ricky.
• I guess we'll see … the live eviction isn't until Saturday evening. Lots of time for changed minds in three days!

Team Fun? Maybe not so much.

Knows not to tell of her power

Tom likes to be nice

Kato is kool

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Blog Party - Wednesday, Jan. 30

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

We should be in for a fun HoH comp viewing tonight. Gee, do you think there will be any drama from Tamar? Heh.

Sitting through Previously on …

Ohhh …. we're supposed to have the most terrifying HoH ever! Good. 

Okay, Ryan is leaving once again. Tamar was worried thinking she might go. Now we'll hear why each person has to win HoH. Joey is rightfully worried as he's a bit of a lone wolf without Ryan.

Lolo is crying, feeling guilty for voting out a fellow Olympian. She just feels she couldn't work with him in the game. 

Joey is trying everyone from Kato to Ricky pushing that Lolo and Natalie need to be worried about. As Ricky told us, he should work on his own game. For someone who didn't want to be in an alliance before, he's scrambling now.

Ricky goes to Lolo and Natalie, warning them that Joey is walking around saying they (the girls) are getting too confident. Of course, he's only doing that for his own game, but they're gullible and he's right -- they will be more willing to trust him if he gives them little tidbits now and then.

HoH comp time! A deranged family of lunatics is on the loose. They have to enter the house with them inside, go through each room to find their car keys and get out. They do this one by one in the dark.

Natalie up, then Kandi. Sigh. Then it's Tamar's turn. She says she doesn't do stuff that will scare her and goes into super dramatics. She gave up and leaves the house quickly without completing the challenge. Tom is up next. Then it's Dina's turn. Lolo next. Ricky runs in next. Then Joey.

The times:
Dina 14.24
Nat 9.07
Joey 4.19
Into commercial …
Tom 3.07
Kandi 8.43
Lolo 3.48
Tamar 30 minutes (disqualified)
Ricky 3.44

TOM wins HoH!

Both Tamar and Joey think they're going on the block.

Kandi asks Tom if he was in an alliance. Tom claims he hasn't made up his mind and wants to talk to everyone.

Tom and Kato decide they're Team Fun. They have Lolo and Natalie in with them. Ricky walks in and they ask if he wants in on an alliance. He says yes, but no way to the name and decides he doesn't want to be a part of it all anyway.

Ricky is with Tom and Kato. He asks who the target is. Kato suggests putting up Tamar and Kandi. If one wins veto, put up Joey. Tom tells us that Ricky is probably the biggest threat, "what about you, Ricky?"

We get a bit of the Tom Show that we see every night as he talks to the live feeders and explores around the house alone.

Kato thinks Lolo and Natalie will stay true to them. He thinks Ricky will honor the final five. Kato and Tom are loyal to each other. Tom is seriously thinking getting Ricky out because he's stronger rather than going for a weaker target.

An Entertainment Tonight twist comes on the video monitor -- America "publicist" will be giving one player a new power.

The Power of the Publicist. 

As I thought from the Twitter voting and her fan base there, TAMAR got the power. She's thrilled.

Tom is worried. He thinks the two most likely to have it should be put on the block to flush out the power.

Time for the Nominations Ceremony --

Tom nominates Joey, then Kandi. He likes them both very much, but he thinks one of them won the power.

Tom tells us that Ricky is still on his radar if the veto is used.

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Feeds into Wednesday - Jan. 30

I like Tamar's comfy pajamas!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Bother House of Z List Celebrities:

• I should note that, while I refer to them as Z List and I wasn't familiar with a lot of them, I'm liking the casting this year a lot more than last year.
• At least they're not quitters although Tamar almost quit.
• The live feeds were down a lot again yesterday, but not like the nine hours on Saturday!
• They were down for nominations which, as we knew from the talks, Tom did indeed nominate Kandi and Joey.
• If they can swing it, it might be time to backdoor Ricky.
• Tom said, in front of Ricky, that if he (Tom) wins veto he won't use it and he will ask any veto user not to use it, let the chips fall where they may.
• Heck I know if Joey or Kandi win, they are both smart enough to save themselves!
• Heh.
• I'm still thinking of Ricky as Peripheral Rick. He's pretty much staying true to not getting in drama and playing his own game.
• But BB is a game that is hard to win unless you have an alliance or voting block.
• The Lolo, Natalie, Tom and Kato alliance isn't showing any real cracks although they're not as "secret" as they should be. They do try, but it's also a bit obvious.
• Even they do seem a solid voting block, Tom and Kato think that Lolo and Natalie might have a side alliance going on with Ricky.
• Apparently the America's Twitter Vote Only came through and, during one of the feeds blocks, they called everyone individually into the Diary Room and gave one the good news.
• Most seem to be thinking Kandi has the "power."
• To be honest, I'm not thinking she would get it. I don't think she's a least likely like Ricky or Dina (who don't seem to have a lot of internet buzz). But, the winner? Nah.
• Tamar, living up to the messy moniker issued by Kato, irked more people by brushing crumbs to the floor and not sweeping.
• She must think there's a maid living in there with them!
• Her drama whims aside, she doesn't seem to realize these little things will grate on all and lessen her chances of a win.
• She also got into a feeds cutting kerfuffle with Tom saying he was threatening her when he wanted her to work on Kandi to see if she got the power.
• He was not threatening her.
• Joey keeps denying to everyone that he has the power. I think he's being honest -- I doubt he has it.
• He says he was told he wasn't America's Vote. When he asked, he claims they told him the winner could admit it if they want but couldn't tell what the power is.
• Lolo thinks that either Kato or Tom could be voted America's Favorite.
• Yeah, I can see that myself.
• Tom may be more favored by the live feeds crowd because he spends a lot of time talking to us.
• Natalie is getting closer to Peripheral Rick. She told him Tom is freaking out about the power and really upset Kandi about it. Ricky told her that's better for "us."
• But I really don't think there is an "us" in the long run for Ricky.
• I think there's a "me" for him.
• Ricky told her he thinks he's the anchor for the game, they now have the numbers and Tom won't affect them.
• Hmm.
• The dude is playing Natalie, methinks.
• Tom told Kato that he thinks Tamar won the power.
• He just might be right. She irks me but I've noticed she has quite an active following on Twitter, the platform for the voting. Many said the house would be boring if not for her drama. Maybe. I don't know.
• The plan to try to backdoor Ricky is still a go.
• Kandi and Tamar talked. Tamar thinks that they need to get Kato out or just go ahead and pack their bags.
• Well, yeah. He's playing a great game and, while as a viewer I'd like to see him win … if I were a chamster he'd be my number one target to get out.
• Tom held his late night talk with us.
• He thinks he needs to find out who has the power before the veto goes down.
• Don't look at me. I don't know.

Celebrity Big Brother 2: Live Feeds, HoH into Tuesday - Jan. 29

Not quite the NFL

Although not really a live feeds thing, I found this TV Guide interview with Anthony interesting. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Silly Celebs:

• Due to the HoH comp, the feeds were blocked well into the night.
• Well, at least we saw the last one play out on the feeds.
• However, I think last season's show has now had more time on the live feeds than the actual shows aired!
• The feeds didn't come back on live here until after 4am! I had to flashback.
• When they did, Tom was wearing the HoH necklace and key.
• Kid Kato will be safe this week! Yay! I've gotten to like the guy.
• From the promos I saw on TV and what the chamsters said, it was the go around in the dark house and get scared by evil things comp.
• They seemed to love it!
• Joey is very upset about something, not sure what or whom.
• It's not about Tom because he said he's happy someone deserving won the comp. He thinks someone (who? who?) shouldn't be rewarded for bad behavior.
• Hmm. It was something Ricky did or said. Joey told Tom he was glad he didn't take Ricky's bait and said something about babies watching.
• ...scratching my head...
• Tamar is also angry at Ricky.
• That in and of itself doesn't mean much when she's had drama with everyone.
• Tom wants to do one-on-one talks with everybody to help him determine the nominations.
• I think he will use his with Kato to talk strategy and what would be best for both their games. They're definitely one of the better two person alliances over the years except for the fact they're a bit too open about it. Both are strategic players, do acceptably in physical comps, know the game and think ahead.
• They were all exhausted but had to stay awake for the HoH room reveal.
• Yeah, it was the traditional "Who wants to see my HoH Room!"
• I think they were excited because it meant they could go to bed soon.
• Kato thinks Tom should nominate Tamar and Kandi with Joey as a backdoor possibility.
• I personally wouldn't be surprised if Tom doesn't think Ricky as a backdoor possibility. He hasn't said that. But I think he's leery of Ricky.
• In what has become his Thing, after everyone left Tom gave us a tour of his room, photos and goodies.
• He did not tell us who he will nominate. I think he has some idea, but will take the talks into consideration.
• But I bet Kato is safe!

Livin' the dream

Whoa!
