Big Brother 20: Live Feeds, Power of Veto Saturday - July 21

Haleigh really tries to improve

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Dilemma Dawgs:

• Before the veto players were picked, Fessy said he didn't want it. He said if he won it, he wouldn't use it.
• That's because he says his two best friends now in the house are the nominees -- Kaitlyn and Haleigh.
• Kaitlyn kept at him and at him. If she pulled HG Choice, she wouldn't choose him if he wasn't going to save her.
• He acquiesced a bit, but made no outright promises.
• When the feeds returned from being blocked for the veto players pick, sure enough ... Fessy is playing for veto.
• JC and Rockstar are the other two chosen.
• Leading into the feed block for the comp, Kaitlyn was still pressuring Fessy to save her if he wins.
• He kept telling her the house didn't want the nominations to change.
• She kept at him anyway.
• He finally told her he would probably save Haleigh.
• Heh.
• Well, guess what?
• FESSY won the Power of Veto.
• He's between a rock and a hard place on this one.
• He's had Bayleigh in his ear about the evils of Kaitlyn for days now.
• I think he knows Kaitlyn uses people (men) to keep herself safe.
• And she's a whole lotta needy, too!
• Meanwhile, Haleigh has taken Sam's words to heart and is trying to help more around the house. She's also trying to distance herself a bit from the flirting.
• Kaitlyn is running around threatening to go after Fessy if he doesn't take her off the block.
• Then she hugs him and tells him she loves him.
• Nutcase.
• Rockstar is more concerned who would go up as a renom if Fessy uses it.
• Maybe she's a bit psychic herself and know her name has been thrown in there.
• She thinks Brett should be the renom because he "hasn't acknowledged me as a person since I walked through the door."
• Well, yeah. I'm sure that's the impetus to backdoor Brett in Sam's eyes, too!
• Sam let Fessy hide alone in the HoH room listening to music behind the locked door. She won't allow anyone in there but him while he's there.
• Kaitlyn is going around telling tall tales that she and Fessy agreed this morning that she would throw the comp to him if he would save her.
• Now, that doesn't even make sense.
• If she could win and save herself, do it!
• This should be a Needy Kaitlyn Fest until the veto meeting on Monday.
• Hooray.
• Not. 

I didn't want this

I've gotta get him to save me!

Nope, no win for you!

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Friday Night - July 20

Back in a secure place

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Foolish Ferrets:

• As you know from my previous posts: Sam won HoH and her nominations today were Kaitlyn and Haleigh.
• Apparently in her speech she said something about Haleigh needing to respect herself and behave accordingly.
• I thought Kaitlyn was the esteemed life coach?
• Heh.
• Rockstar and Kaitlyn sulked about Sam nominating two women. Y'know, as a woman, she should have worked to get the men out of the house! 
• (No matter whether some of the men might be better for her own game.)
• Rockstar continued to rant on about Brett.
• Now she thinks he must be related to someone (on staff?) because he gets away with everything.
• @@
• Mind you, I don't care for Brett. But, if not for jerks, BB would be boring!
• As much as I enjoy Sam in the house, if it were a house full of Sams, I'd have nothing to report!
• But it's great to have a single Sam!
• Kaitlyn told Bayleigh she would never campaign against Haleigh.
• We'll see how that goes if the nominations remain the same.
• I doubt Bayleigh will use her power this week. She is increasingly annoyed by Rockstar, Haleigh and Kaitlyn (not necessarily in that order). She's still close with Fessy, but is sorry she linked in with those girls.
• Tyler certainly won't have to use his power unless Bayleigh uses hers and puts him on the block. That's doubtful.
• Scottie told Rachel his only way to stay in the game is to win comps, otherwise he's lost. He says he's out of the loop.
• I just think he's not (A) mean enough and (B) doesn't have the people skills to deal with not being mean.
• Part of Sam's reasoning for the nominations is that neither of them contribute to the house -- they just make a mess and let others clean it up.
• The other part had to do with being disrespectful of others and of themselves.
• Oh my.
• She saw Haleigh going to Scottie "playing with his heart" and Kaitlyn doing the same when "she has a man at home."
• Not anymore, it seems! 
• But they don't know that.
• Heh. Sam said if she needs a renom it might be Rockstar because "she can't control herself so early in the game."
• Kaitlyn begged Fessy to save her if he wins the veto.
• He wouldn't commit. He gave the impression he'd rather not play for veto at all.
• Kaitlyn had a brief talk with Sam. It didn't really go anywhere.
• Haleigh had a longer talk with Sam. It may have sunk in. We'll just have to see when the next male HOH happens, will she jump in the bed and lead him on?
• Tyler and Sam had a better talk. She told him that after the veto ceremony and nominees are "locked" in place, she will tell both nominees of her power and that the evicted will have a chance to come back.
• JC said he can't deal with Rockstar anymore for now. He's been trying to calm her down. But he's reached his breaking point. He's no Sam.
• That's it for now!

Do we know her?

Ha! Rockstar's girl alliance, huh?!?!

To cry or to mediate, that is the question

Will surely be a target again

Will she listen to Sam's advice?

The loving HoH

I will haunt your dreams. Nitey-nite!

Big Brother 20: Nominations Bulletin - July 20

Welp, the nominations are in. Sam, who made up her mind and didn't want to be swayed by one-on-one meetings of any kind, has spoken.

Kaitlyn and Haleigh

Let the tears (and cheers) begin.

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Friday Morning - July 20

And Kaitlyn cried ...

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Failing Foute:

• As you know, the new HoH in town is Sam.
• While everyone cheered on her win, some are really worried now.
• Since Kaycee and Tyler dropped for her, they're not so worried.
• Rockstar ranted on and on about Brett's speech at the eviction.
• And on and on.
• No, Rockstar ... you don't have one of those to suck. Stop being an idiot!
• She even threatened self-eviction.
• Go ahead. 
• Do it.
• Argh ... Kaitlyn talked her out of it.
• The HoH Reveal was different from most.
• Sam laid down the ground rules -- It's HER HoH room, she already knows who she will nominate, no one-on-ones, no one in her room without her permission, no one in her room without her and (as per the rules) she won't tell the nominees ahead of time.
• Good for her!
• About time someone followed the rules about not telling the nominees!
• She said once the comps start, things can happen then.
• She got James Brown for her music. Dang, I like her!
• Although one of her stated reasons for winning HoH was to get off slop, Sam says she won't eat until her fellow Have Nots can ... but she will drink alcohol and sleep in the comfortable bed.
• Rockstar is not only ticked off over Brett's speech, she ranted about both Sam and Brett being recruits for the show and shouldn't be there.
• AND ON HER DAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY!
• And Brett doesn't even need the money! Nor does Sam!
• Sam tried her "it's a game" speech to little avail.
• Meanwhile, Bayleigh is doubting her choice of alliances. She told Fessy that she only went with them because of him and Swaggy ... but cannot deal with "those girls."
• There is still controversy over who flipped. Kaitlyn told Fessy she doubts that Tyler flipped and maybe Brett was right in his speech.
• Heh.
• Fessy told her two people had to flip because JC voted for Brett to go.
• Heh.
• Meanwhile, Brett kept up his eviction speech scenario with Kaitlyn and has her really thinking Rockstar flipped.
• Kaitlyn told Rachel that if Tyler flipped, she would kill herself.
• Now, now ... no need for that. Just leave. That would be enough.
• She thinks Haleigh was the other flip vote.
• Foute (whatever) if finished.
• Maybe if they had given their alliance a better name?
• Naw.
• Rockstar's over-reaction is doing her more harm than good.
• Even JC tried to tell her it's only a game.
• Now Bayleigh and Haleigh are wishing they had flipped.
• A bit late for that!
• Now Bayleigh is thinking she's the low man on the totem pole AND that Tyler must have flipped.
• She could very well be right! Heh. Then she changed her mind again.
• Scottie is confused.
• Tyler hinted more to Kaitlyn that Rockstar and Haleigh flipped.
• Bayleigh told Fessy (the only one who knows of her power) that she wanted to use it for her game, not to get out a bullying girl.
• Hmm ... I believe she means Kaitlyn.
• They do think Kaitlyn has everyone wrapped around her little metaphysical fingers.
• Meanwhile, now Kaitlyn is thinking Sam's power was to flip two votes.
• @@
• Rockstar went to pots and pans to harass Brett. How original!
• Sam told her that she would prefer she stop doing that. Sam wanted this week to be "chill."
• After much fussing, Rockstar stopped banging the pots and pans and just started shouting things at Brett.
• Brett maintained his cool, saying later he didn't want to react and get blamed for anything.
• Nominations are later today. No real indication, but I feel Bayleigh and Haleigh, perhaps Rockstar, should worry. 

Sam's coming down to cheers from all

It's MY room!

I'm done! Take me out, Big Brother!

Worried

Not his best look!
