BB25: Live Feeds into Thursday - Sept. 14

 

Izzy is a worried piggy.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of the Day After Waffle Wednesday:

• Yes. Waffle Wednesday is over.
• And, true to form, they waffled.
• Now it seems the vote will be to evict Izzy 3 to 6.
• The three votes for Izzy to stay will be Cirie, Jared and Blue.
• Blue made a pact in the first few days of the game not to vote to evict any LBGTQ folks.
• Although, she did go against that pact with the Hisam vote.
• Cameron made many valid points about the power structure in the house when talking with others.
• And Cameron has finally realized that his best trusted buddy bro Jared is in with Cirie, Felicia and Izzy.
• While the tide has turned, I don't think Cameron himself has picked up any long-lasting love or alliances with those who will vote Izzy out.
• Other than America, the others seem to be a bit taken aback by how he talks to them.
• Unless he changes his demeanor with others, he will be out soon.
• The plan for tonight is to claim that Izzy is the stronger player which is why she went.
• If they can get Cameron on the block or up as a renom after this week, they will use the same reasoning.
• They all did get to feast at midnight with Cameron even bringing down his HOH goodies and his White Claws.
• Tonight is starting an hour earlier than usual! Remember that. And, usual will become that 8PM ET/PT time from now on.
• The wall comp is the HOH tonight. I'm thinking America, Mecole or Blue could do well if any WANT the win. Of the guys, Jag and Cory might stand the best shot. I don't think either really want the HOH right now. But people need to stop throwing comps.
• Laters!

America's glee feeds into Cam's ego.

Should do well on the wall.

Which way should he vote?

What's with the off the shoulder?

When will the gamer come out?

BB25: Power of Veto Show Blog Party - Sept. 13

 

Good evening! Make sure you have your beverages and snacks nearby. This is going to be a two-hour episode. Also, don't forget that beginning tomorrow night the Thursday live eviction shows will be starting an hour earlier at 8PM ET/PT versus its standard 9PM.

Tonight is the Veto comp episode. We have Izzy and Felicia on the block. Will someone win the veto and actually use it to save one of the nominees? Ohh ... the suspense!

I will be live blogging the show as it airs here on the East Coast. I'll be updating regularly -- please refresh the page to get the latest updates. As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

Twiddling my thumbs through the "Previously on" segment.

We pick up the action after the nominations ceremony. A peek at the veto comp has them spinning in chairs. Cameron thinks he's all that. He is very full of himself and thinks he rules. Izzy thinks she makes him feel small. Felicia is not thrilled nor impressed with Cameron.

Felicia tells Cam that the vote was flipped to boot Red about an hour before the eviction. Cameron refers to the week as Cam's Chaos Week. Um, okay. He thinks he was left out of the boot Red conversation to spite him. Well, they didn't want him telling Red. Sheesh! He tells her she isn't the target.

Izzy talks to Cam. He tells her there is a distinction between game and personal. He tells her he wants to work with her. He thinks she believes him. She doesn't. He tells her she's not the target and that Felicia is a loose cannon. He tells her he loves Cirie. Izzy tells us that she is sure that Cam would put Cirie on the block as a renom.

America is head over heels with Cam's plans. 

Cirie talks to Cam. Love and hugs. Yep. She knows that she would be the renom and will work on it giving him hero worship. Gag. He tells us he knows she's trying to save her own butt but that she will go on the block if someone comes down.

Izzy tells Cirie that she's worried that Cirie will be the renom, if she wins the veto she will not save herself. They hug.

Now Jag talks to Cam in the HOH room. Jag tells us he still doesn't trust Cam, doesn't feel completely safe. Cam tells him he is to remain quiet. If Jag tells anyone about the deal, he will yank him on the block so quickly his head will spin.

I should note that while he is making some decent moves, the way he treats people and threatens them is endearing him to no one. Well, no one other than America so far.

Jag and Matt decide to be The Minutemen. Matt thinks it would be best the noms remain the same. He's worried that Jag would be the renom.

Cam and Jared in HOH room. Jared tells us he doesn't trust Cam at all. Well, duh. Cam thinks Jared can work with him and Jared had no idea that Red would be evicted. Cam tells us Cirie is his renom plan. He goes through his "steps" with Jared. His third step is to let both Izzy and Felicia think they are pawns. He won't tell Jared step 4, but Jared has it figured out -- his mother on the block.

Veto players picking time. Cameron draws ... Matt. Felicia draws Jared. (She thinks of him as her son in the house. Heh.) Izzy gets Houseguest Choice and chooses Jag.

Matt checks with Jared about what to do with the veto. Jared says to keep it the same as he thinks Cirie would go.

Izzy and Cirie are having a heart to heart talk. Izzy doesn't feel confident about anything. She thinks she's short, fat and ugly. Cirie tells her she had the same feeling that she couldn't do anything when she first went on Survivor. She's really touched by Izzy. Cirie says they are two hot messes. Izzy trusts her and is also touched.

Time for the veto comp, but all have to go to the living room for a Buddy Games show promo with Josh Duhamel. Blue tells them Josh is in the backyard. Cam would love to be on that show.

The backyard is set up like the new show. Matt has Hollywood hopes. Josh tells them the comp is in a series of rounds. 30 seconds spinning in chair, shooting 3 balls skeeball style  spinning each time in between, lowest score eliminated. It's a prize swap comp.

Felicia up first. 70 score. Jared needs to beat the 70. Jared got 30. Cam up next. Cam got 65. Izzy up next. She got 15. Matt up next. He got 142! Jag up now. He got 102. Izzy eliminated. She got the veto but she knows it won't last.

Second round. Jared 184. Cameron 26. Matt 122. Jag 91. Felicia fell. Got 27. Cameron eliminated. His "prize" is Piggy Pals choose a buddy build pig pen with 2000 scoops of dirt within two hours or can't play veto. He takes the veto and gives Izzy the Piggy Pals.

Round three. Matt up first, gets 63. Jag up next, gets 77. Jared up next, gets 150. Felicia gets 47 and collapses. She is all sweaty. She "wins" a European Vacation" - a trip for two. She trades it for the veto.

Round four -- Jag first, got 76. Jared next, got 74. Matt next, gets 116. Jared out. Gets Kayak Companions, buddy of your choosing, 48 hours. He takes the veto from Felicia.

Final round -- Matt up first. 139. Jag up. He gets 96. Jag receives $5,000. Keeps it.  Matt wins Duhamel-a-Maniac, hang out with Josh all week taking selfies galore. Matt thinks it's real. Jag doesn't think it is.

Izzy picks Cameron to be her Piggy Pal. Felicia picks Cirie to be her kayak pal. Jared keeps the veto. Felicia thinks Jared will save her. Josh bids adieu to all.

Cirie and Felicia have to go get their kayak. They have life vests, helmets and a kayak for two. They also have paddles. If they dock, they can get out but have to kayak going anywhere in the house. It's fun watching them maneuver the kayak.

Matt gets his punishment. He has a cardboard Josh, red plaid shirt and hat, camper vest and a Polaroid camera. He's having fun with it. All of the photos have to be on a shrine to Josh.

Cam talks to Jared in the HOH room. Cam asks him if he wants to play chill or blow this apart. He tells him he wants to put Cirie next to Izzy. He still wants Izzy out though. He thinks Cirie will have no one if Izzy goes. Jared tells us he will try to sway him. What if they put Jag next to Izzy? Cam senses that Jared doesn't want Cirie going up. But, of course, he doesn't know WHY Jared feels that way.

Time for Izzy and Cameron to get their Piggy Pals punishment. They have to do the 2,000 scoops of soil and they are already hot and sweaty. Cardboard Josh has to have his photo taken with pigs and kayaks. Then they all had to put the gas masks on, then a photo of all the houseguests in masks.

Houseguests are in bed. America wants Cory to kiss her. Even under the covers. He tells us his Mom is watching the live feeds. He doesn't want to go beyond cuddling. Then the kiss and dramatic music accompanying it comes. 

Back to the pigs in the backyard. It's 3:05AM. She decides to talk him to death. 6:32AM. They finish the tasks. They have to add water and roll around in the dirt. The costumes are good for the week.

Jared can't talk to Cirie alone. He talks to both kayakers and tells them it's backdoor plan if he uses the veto. Felicia tells us she NEEDS Jared to save her and is upset that he might not use it to save Cirie.

Time for the veto meeting. Jared does NOT use the veto. Izzy and Felicia remain on the block.

Tomorrow night it's the wall HOH comp.

BB25: Live Feeds into Wednesday - Sept. 13

Pigattude

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Headache Hamsters:

• Cameron is still blinded to the fact that he really has no allies.
• Part of that is because he lies to people and they're onto it.
• Jag went to Jared and Blue about Cam telling different people different things just to drive a wedge between them.
• Knowing Cameron, that's probably part of his Create Chaos and Be A BB Legend Plan.
• If the dude could just keep doing comps well AND have some sort of social game, he could be a contender.
• It's almost like he's determined to make just about everyone in the house hate him.
• It's not like he doesn't know they compare notes.
• Plus, he talks to everyone like he's lecturing small children. Being condescending does not make friends and influence people in the house.
• Cam thinks he has an alliance with America, Bowie, Cory and Jag as he tried to get Matt on board.
• Yeah, sure.
• Matt is getting more adept at figuring out the tomfoolery lies of the house.
• He's gotten good at nodding his head a lot.
• Heh. Cameron thinks he has all the votes (9) for Felicia to stay according to America ... who giggles about it.
• Now, Bowie MIGHT vote for Felicia to stay. But the majority of the house will vote to keep Izzy.
• BUT Cameron told Blue that he won't be fooled if Felicia does go out on Thursday and the others are dumb enough to leave a threat who everyone likes in the house.
• Um. Okay, Cam. Tell one person one thing, tell another something else. Gotcha!
• In other news -- During a conversation with Felicia and Mecole, Felicia told her she's wary of Jared because he had told her that he would take her down with the veto but didn't.
• Mecole told her she doubts Jared will vote for Izzy to stay.
• They are leaving Mecole out of the loop as they know she is loyal to Felicia.
• Now, I'm not sure how well that will go over with Mecole. She is not one who likes being left out. Hmm.
• Cirie would like for Felicia to be warned ahead of time so she is prepared.
• But, of course, today is Waffle Wednesday.
• We will have to see if it remains evict Felicia.
• Remember, tonight's show is two hours!

A bit too much love going on here.

Um. Why America gets fan grief ...

Hide, Cory, hide!

The Amazing Race: TAR35 Teams Introduction

 Good afternoon! Nope, this is not about Big Brother. Does everything have to be about Big Brother? No, it does not! I'm here to talk about the upcoming season of The Amazing Race and brief you on the teams.

The season starts on September 27. From that Wednesday forward, BB25 will be on Tuesday nights and Wednesdays will be 90-minute episodes of Survivor followed by 90-minute episodes of The Amazing Race. For the first time the show will feature 13 teams. According to CBC, the race will be a "23,800-mile adventure around the world." We will see the return of commercial flights instead of the private Covid-era flights. Plus, there will be no non-elimination legs, there will be a twist on the U-Turn and the Express Pass will be back.

Here's a cast video from Parade.com --

Here are the teams:

Alexandra and Sheridan Lichtor, brother and sister team from Chicago. She's 34, he's 29. Both graduated from Northwestern University with a Chemical Engineering degree and both currently work for the same global management consulting firm. Alex also plays tennis and has won multiple half marathons.

Ashlie and Todd Martin are a married couple living in Chino, California. They are both 38 years old. Ashlie is a hospitality account manager while Todd is a special education teacher. 

I can't seem to find much more on them other than the fact they first met at age 15. So, they should surely know each other's quirks by now!

Elizabeth and Iliana Rivera are a mother - daughter team from Tampa, Florida. Elizabeth is 52 years old and Ilana is 27. Their professions are listed as retired lieutenant and entrepreneur. Hmm. Lieutenant where I haven't a clue, nor entrepreneur in what.

Nothing like a bit of vagueness.

Greg and John Franklin are brothers living in New York City and Mountain View, California. Greg is 25, John is 27. Greg is a software developer while John is a product manager. I dunno. Both sound techy to me!

I've read that they have done quite a bit of traveling to other countries together. That could be a very good thing!

Jocelyn Chao and Victor Limary are both 49 years old and yes, they are married despite different surnames. They live in Albuquerque, New Mexico where they are both grocery store managers.

Like many others, they say reading the clue is very important. Let's see if they can practice what they preach!

BB25: Live Feeds into Tuesday - Sept. 12

Freed from kayak duty.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Inflated Egos:

• Oh my gosh. Cameron seems to seriously think that he's going to be BB legendary with his chaos creation and big crazy moves.
• He is still dead set on getting his evil nemesis Izzy out of the house.
• He thinks people are going along with him.
• That is despite America telling him everybody is lying to him.
• Neither America nor Cameron have made the direct correlation and bond between Cirie and Jared.
• America thinks Jared doesn't trust her.
• He doesn't.
• America also told Cam that he, not Red, was the target last week. He doesn't think that's even possible! After all, he has too many allies in the house! All they did was not inform him of the plan about Red, not target him! Heh.
• Cory, despite his knowledge of BB and his own brainy self, is starting to come across as a lost little puppy dog to me.
• He talked to Izzy. He told her he no longer trusts Cirie and Jared (yet hasn't figured out the mother/son bit).
• Izzy told him that she thinks Jag, Blue and America are again working together ... without him.
• Jared warned him that America tells a lot about him. So there goes his love life.
• Cory eventually talked to America. He told her that Blue can't be trusted and that he heard she was sharing information about him with others.
• He asked if she told anyone his Survivor secret (about his brother) and she denied it.
• Cameron is so into his thinking that he's so devious and shaking up the house so much that it's hard to watch him talk to the others one by one.
• Now, if he had something new and original and actually earthshaking, it would be different.
• But he's making an ordeal over rather mundane expected nominations.
• Izzy is his hated one and he wants her out. Heck, we know she dislikes him too.
• Cirie and Cameron talked once Cirie was released from kayak duty.
• Cameron once again professed love for her and said he was only upset with her because he was not brought in on the Red plan.
• Um, okay. I remember him telling Jared that Cirie was the president, Felicia the VP and Izzy secretary of defense.
• I do think he does indeed really like her, and I think it's blinding him a bit about how dangerous for anyone else's game it is to not take a shot at her.
• I like Cirie. But if I were in that house, she would be the first one I wanted out for my own game!
• Cam told Cirie that Izzy has to go if they expect to work together.
• Hmm. I doubt Cirie wants to work with him, but if that's his belief, carry on dude.
• At the time being, keep in mind Waffle Wednesday is still ahead, it looks like the votes are there for Izzy to stay.
• We will see.
• Laters!

Matt has Cardboard Josh for a week.

How long can she play under the radar?

But will he vote to keep her?

I'm a mad pig making big moves!

Yes, Cameron. I want to work with you.

 

BB25: Live Feeds into Monday Evening - Sept. 11

 

Matt displayed his Josh shots.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Wayward Children:

• The big news isn't really big news at all.
• The Power of Veto meeting was held today.
• As we all know, Jared didn't dare use the veto to save either due to his fear that Cirie would be the renom.
• So, Izzy and Felicia remain on the block.
• Jared hasn't been able to talk to Cirie because she's all but attached to Felicia with the kayak bit.
• It seems that Cameron, even knowing that Cirie is the leader of the gang, wanted Izzy out instead.
• So, what's Cameron's big, surprising plan now?
• Well, he wants Jared to pretend that he's mad at him and vice versa. By Jared not using the veto, his backdoor plan of backdooring Blue to split the showmance up failed.
• Um. Okay. Nobody will believe that one.
• He also wants word to spread that Felicia is the target when Izzy is.
• Little does he know, but Felicia IS the target.
• Even after some TELL him, he thinks Izzy is the target.
• Oh my. 
• Matt is doing great with his Cardboard Josh companion. 
• The kayakers, not so much. Their boating ends tonight. I'm not sure when Matt's ends.
• Cam and Izzy have a week in the pig suits.
• Jared still thinks he's some kind of mastermind.
• I just can't get over him showmancing with Blue and telling the camera (his girlfriend at home) that he loves her.
• Izzy is already making the Izzy Tour, talking to Jag to make sure all their bridges have been repaired.
• With all of them on slop this week and the backyard closed, they are wanting to go to bed at 10PM.
• BB should not put so many on slop ever again.

The masks look more pig than pig costumes.

America discovers a new way to nap.

Cory made his round talking to Cam.

The new hamster is quiet and doesn't eat much.

Wants to stop kayaking, Mr. B!

BB25: Live Feeds into Monday Morning - Sept. 11

 

He thinks he has the perfect plan.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Precarious Pigs:

• With the punishments in action, there is a bit of stifling some of the gameplay.
• No one can talk serious gameplay to Cirie unless they are okay with Felicia hearing it.
• Jared has had long talks with Cameron.
• Cameron still wants Jared to use the veto to take Felicia down and to put Cirie up. He seems to think that Izzy would be voted out over Cirie but it would let Cirie know that she's in danger ... or something like that.
• Although he's acting like he will use the veto to Cam, we know it's no way.
• It seems to me that this is actually the plan Cirie has had all along, as are many of the things that have gone down this season.
• Last week she started throwing Felicia under the bus with several of the others.
• This week, it seems if the noms remain the same and it's Izzy versus Felicia, it would be an overwhelming vote to send Felicia home.
• Exactly what Cirie seems to want.
• In other news, Izzy and Cameron completed their moving cups of dirt task in the yard, so neither lost the ability to play for veto this coming week.
• They also have night pig costumes to sleep in. The costumes should last through the upcoming eviction show.
• Now, Cameron really wants Izzy out (if he can't take the shot at Cirie).
• He thinks if it's Izzy and Felicia on the block, Izzy would be voted out.
• Oh, but he's wrong there. Between Cirie throwing Felicia under the bus to Felicia's own bossy self, it would be Bye, Felicia! Izzy has calmed down a lot and gotten in better with others lately.
• Matt seems a bit fascinated with the Polaroid technology he has to use. To think, he originally thought he would be getting a trip to the set of the show and he ended up with a cardboard cutout. He even has to tuck the cardboard Josh into a bed at night.
• The kayakers, Felicia and Cirie are pretty much in a world of their own. They have ended up spending a lot of time in the living room as that's the easiest fit for them.
• Without Red, the slop has been experiment time. But they seem to have come up with a few decent concoctions.
• After many talks, it now seems that Jared has talked Cam off the idea of using the veto.
• The veto meeting is later today.
• We know Jared has no plan on using it.
• But ...?

This little piggy is on the block.

Will he keep the deal with Cam?

The pesky guest refuses to sit in the nom. chair.

Matt is having fun with a Polaroid.

BB25: Nominations and Filler? Show Blog Party - Sept.10

 

Tonight's show will not be starting until about 8:45PM ET!

Good evening! I have no clue about what other than nominations will be on tonight's show. It's been a long time since they had an HOH comp in its entirety on the Thursday show. I guess we will find out!

I will be live blogging this show, constantly updating this entry as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest updates! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

But first, please make sure you check out my entry about the schedule changes for the show! Tonight's show isn't scheduled until 8:30PM ET, so ... no ... I'm not late!

Sitting through the "Previously on" segment.

We pick up the action after the HOH comp ends and Julie says goodnight. Cameron is mad. He hopes everyone is nervous. He's getting bleeped a lot. No, Cameron didn't know they were voting out Red. Even Bowie feels bad about it because her own people didn't tell her.

The Have Not for all but Cam starts immediately. Bowie confronts Felicia and company. She's almost in tears and feels all alone. Felicia wants to talk to her. She tells her that it's not personal. Cirie reminds her that there is information she has withheld from them. Izzy tells her that she (Bowie) needs to find out his plans. Bowie tells us she now trusts nobody.

Matt, America and Jag talk. Matt is upset that Felicia kicked him out of the room earlier. What is she up to? Is she throwing people under the bus?

Cirie tells us she has to do serious damage control. She tells Cameron about the Chillers and tells him that Red was targeting him. All lies, but. Will it work? Nope. He tells us in the Diary Room that it didn't work.

The Humili Globe is lighting up in the living room. They get the message, all week a different humiliation. Use a bullhorn each time to use the bathroom, Stink-o-Meter in the bathroom, gas masks in case the meter hits ten. We get a long segment on the stink shenanigans.

Cameron talks to Bowie. She tells him she wasn't in the loop and now can't believe anything they say. Cameron tells her they're good. He won't share his thoughts, but she's good.

Jag and Izzy talk. Jag tells her all about his background and growing up. He tells us the turban stands for who he is. He talks of abuse due to the turban. He's proud to be a Sikh.

Felicia thinks she and Jared are a perfect final two when she already has a final two with Cirie, cannot trust her anymore. Cirie thinks Felicia is a loose cannon. Red and Bowie catch Felicia saying Red would take a cupcake home instead of "for later." Cirie says she's a floppy mess.

Felicia is singing/shouting in her sleep. Then into snores.

Blue talks to Cam. He tells her that probably Jag on the block, he needs her to be the pawn. He tells us he just needs her to go downstairs and act like she hates him. Jag talks to Cam. Cam tells him he wants to put him on the block next to Blue. He needs to deal for safety next week to give Jag safety this week. No telling anyone. Jag tells us that he won't say anything.

Matt and Jag are pretending to text with their mics for a date. Matt and Jag are besties. 

Matt and Cam talk. He tells him Jag and Blue. He tells all of them Jag and Blue. He tells us it's not the truth. They gave him shock and awe, he can give it back.

Time for the Nominations Ceremony. Cam brings the box with two keys, when the HumiliWeek jumps in. Cam gets pies from the storage room. He will smash a pie in the face of everyone safe. First safe is Bowie Jane. Second, Jared. Cirie, Mecole, Cory, Matt, JAG, BLUE, America.

Felicia and Izzy on the block. He thinks they have had a comfortable ride, turned on two male allies and doesn't want to be the third.

Cam tells us Cirie is the President, Felicia VP and Izzy Defense. You don't go right at the president first.

BB25: Schedule Changes Ahead!

 

Hi! I just wanted to warn folks about some changes in the show schedule.

Tonight's Sunday Sept. 10 show is scheduled at 8:30PM ET/PT

Wednesday, Sept. 13 is a two-hour show beginning at 8:00PM ET/PT

Starting this Thursday, the live eviction shows will start an hour earlier at 8:00PM ET/PT.

Sunday shows starting Sept. 17 are scheduled at 10:30PM ET/PT due to football.

The veto shows will move to Tuesdays instead of Wednesdays starting Sept. 26 as Survivor and The Amazing Race will be in the entire primetime scheduling block on Wednesdays.

BB25: Live Feeds into Sunday Morning - Sept. 10

 

Cirie and Felicia are kayakers.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Delusional Divas:

• First, let me tell you about the costumes/punishments from the veto.
• Crushing what he thought were holiday dreams and maybe even a dinner, Matt's Duhamel-a-Maniac "prize" is carrying around a cardboard cut-out of the actor and taking selfie photos upon command from BB.
• Cirie and Felicia (not sure how Cirie is in this unless picked by Felicia?) are kayakers together for 48 hours.
• Cameron and Izzy are pigs with the cutest tails. They have to take cups of dirt from one location to another in the backyard with a BB counter adding the cup counts up. Whatever that count BB has set, they must get to it within 12 hours. If they fail to get the number of cups BB wants (not sure how many), they cannot play in the veto this coming week. I think the pig suits are for the week.
• Now it's to Jared's what do I do with the veto talk with Cameron.
• Of course, I myself never really know if Cameron is being truthful or not. Sometimes his cover stories to others are very believable. Then we have the noms he made this week after telling everyone it would be Blue and Jag.
• Okay, he built up the suspense reveal to Jared as if it was some real complicated thing.
• Jared told him he didn't want to use the veto.
• Cameron told him he wanted Izzy out and, therefore, Felicia on the block with her wouldn't work as people might vote Felicia out instead.
• So, yes, Cameron wants to take Felicia down and replace her with Cirie. But is it a blindside?
• Well, IF Cam is on the level to Jared, he thinks everyone would vote to keep Cirie and Izzy would be sure to go.
• The plan is for Jared to tell everyone that he won't be using the veto. 
• (Which he was already saying as they feared a backdoor of Cirie.)
• Let Felicia worry and spiral down for two days.
• Use the veto on Monday, take Felicia off the block, put Cirie on the block, Izzy goes home.
• Jared tried to convince him that Cirie wouldn't have the votes to stay.
• They have a day and a half to decide.
• I personally doubt that Jared will use the veto. He really wants Felicia gone.
• But now there is another wrench in the works. The piggies. It seems to me that Izzy and Cameron are starting to bond in their pig mission.
• Will Cam want to change the target?
• Oh. Yeah. The Americory showmance was kissing and went undercovers. The BB cams kept going from interesting piggie talk to showmance trash. I was fine with it staying flirtmance.
• Blech.
• Laters!

Matt is a Duhamel-a- Maniac

Cameron and Izzy are piggies.

Matt didn't take the veto.

No, it's not a costume.

Izzy Houseguest Choice'd Jag for the comp.

I thought only men did the hand down the pants.

BB25: Live Feeds Power of Veto Winner Bulletin - Sept. 9

 

As you know from my previous post the veto players were: Cameron, Felicia and Izzy joined by Jag, Jared and Matt.

The feeds went down for the comp at around 1:30PM EDT. When they came back about five hours later, we had this: no one on camera wearing the necklace. It seems Matt won/chose something to do with the TV show that's being promo'd. It SOUNDS like Jared won. He's telling Blue that Cirie is his mother, and he doesn't think she has the votes to stay if he uses it. So, I will go with Jared winning it unless I hear otherwise. Izzy seems upbeat.

Yes, Jared won Veto. He tells Blue he cannot use it. The five "losers" - Cameron, Izzy, Felicia, Matt and Jag have to wear costumes. Jag either has cash or a trip, not sure which. The comp had spinning in it.

Update: Jag got $5,000. It sounds like Cameron won a European trip for two.

BB25: Live Feeds Into Saturday Morning - Sept. 9

My life for you!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Blindsided Bats:

• I'll start off with a bit of the HumiliVerse hijinks in the house. On the show it was mentioned all are Have Nots except Cameron. All are on slop and have to take turns sleeping in the Have Not room.
• But there's more! Every time someone has to use the bathroom, they have to announce it on a megaphone. They were each given their own gas masks they have to wear when using the toilet. After they finish, a cartoony voice announces their stink ratings.
• Is there more? Well, from what they've said, the nominations ceremony (blocked to the live feeds) had the old key lazy Susan but instead of the key revealing safety, each person was hit with a pie.
• Enough with the silliness ... onto the game.
• In his HOH talks with people Cameron indicated to all (except Jag) that his nominations will be a repeat of what he did before -- Blue and Jag on the block.
• He had Blue in tears telling her she wouldn't be his target.
• With Jag, he made a deal for safety next week and the promise of working together -- an alliance no one would ever guess.
• He pinky promised America she would be safe.
• He gathered a lot of intel in his talks without a real Hisam-style interrogation approach. To me, it seemed like all wanted to just keep their own butts off the block.
• Several, including Cory and Jared, threw Felicia under the bus for instigating distrust regarding Cam. Izzy got some mentions as well.
• But Cameron was consistent -- he would be nominating Blue and Jag.
• Cameron said the only people he trusts are Jared, Bowie and Matt.
• But he told neither of them his plan.
• Then BANG at the Nominations -- he blindsided all by nominating Izzy and Felicia.
• In later talks with them he implied to each one that the other was his target.
• Cirie is very concerned that if one comes off the block, she will be the target.
• Cameron told her she was good from the start with him and not to worry. (But he has said it's Cirie, Felicia and Izzy running the house before.)
• While Red seemed to profess some sort of undying love for Cirie, Cam always talked favorably about her but stopped short of devotion.
• But think about it. Who is DEVOTED to Cirie? Izzy iz!
• Reminiscent of Trashy in the Stephen King book THE STAND -- a character who kept saying "I give my life for you!" to the evil Randall Flagg -- Izzy told Cirie that if she (Izzy) wins the veto she won't use it on herself to spare Cirie from being backdoored.
• Um. Well. That would be definitely more than the other Fields child Jared would do for Moms!
• This morning Izzy backed down from the thought of not saving herself with the veto. After all, it would look weird. She'll just tell everyone else not to use it.
• Cameron says he has a plan for if the veto gets used.
• But, like his nominations, he's telling no one -- not even his trusted three.
• Because, of course, he doesn't really trust them.
• And he shouldn't. 
• The Power of Veto Players were picked this morning.
• In addition to Cameron, Felicia and Izzy we have ... Matt, Jared and Jag.
• This should be interesting.
• I forgot to mention -- there is yet another new alliance in the house! The Minutemen, Matt and Jag.
• Laters!

Trying to gather an army.

No one will think we're working together!

Izzy and Felica from the block.

Will you be in my army, pretty girl?

I thought I was going to be a pawn!

Reconsidering recent life choices ... like BB.

 

BB25: Live Feeds Nominations Bulletin - Sept. 8

 

Could it be America?

How about Jag?

Nope! Cameron nominated Felicia and Izzy despite saying he was going to make the nominations Jag and Blue like Week 4. Apparently, the nominations involved getting pies thrown in their faces due to the Humiliverse.
