'Big Brother 8' - Through the Overnight Into Thursday 8/30

Daniele looks sad, doesn't she? I don't know how well she's handling the pressure and she's neither on the block, nor in the position of nominating anyone. And, the stipend is surely more than her pay at Hooters.

Here are the late night and overnight events from that Big Brother House of War and Worship:
  • Daniele made cookies. She likes to make cookies.
  • Daniele wanted to be called into the DR so she could make fun of Zach. I think she'd like both of the nominees to leave this week, and her father, too!
  • An interesting thing to note -- production has forbidden them to wear all white on the show.
  • Daniele complained to Amber and Jameka that she was trying to make cookies and the two most annoying people in the house were bothering her. Who? Zach and Evel Dick.
  • Now Amber thinks her vision meant that she would win something when she came out of the house. @@
  • Amber doesn't know what a dildo is. I hope she doesn't feel the need to scrutinize one on the show.
  • Jameka tried telling Amber that she should wear something nice for the live show and not her standard "wife-beater" t-shirt.
  • Amber packed, Zach blew up a rubber glove like Howie Mandel's old comedy act.
  • Daniele, despite her hatred of Zach and everything and everyone, cracked up at Zach's inflated glove antics.
  • Evel Dick accidentally put an end to it by hitting it and popping it. Aw.
  • After a six-hour lockdown, they went out to tarps covering a stage or something similar.
  • When accused of farting by Jameka, Amber swore on her daughter that she didn't. Jameka told her that wasn't necessary.
  • Most went to bed, Eric went to the DR.
  • Daniele moped about and cleaned a bit in the kitchen.
  • When Dick got back up, looks were glared and Daniele went back to bed.
  • Eric came out of the DR, passed a few words with Dick and headed to the kitchen.
  • Dick gave a Dick Show. Not that, minds out of the gutter! His talk show to the Internet. He told us it's hard with Daniele and he wants to say goodbye to Amber, it's long overdue.
  • It's fairly quiet now, Dick is on a few feeds, but I don't see Eric. Dick is up to something, but I can't figure it out. He's folding paper towels and putting them about the living room.
  • Eric and Jessica are small-talking in the HOH room. Eric says Amber doesn't talk to anyone, packs and cries. Jessica wonders what she'll do as she goes out the door.
  • The vote seems overwhelmingly an Amber ouster with Jameka the only vote to keep her.
  • Eric says he'll tell her before the show like he promised.

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds and Stuff 8/29

Oh, it doesn't look like the smear campaign against Eric by Jameka and Amber has had much effect on the winsome twosome, huh? It hasn't. I really think there's something to the friendship. Will the romance survive after the season ends? I think not so much, but I think they'll be friends.

I have an update up and about on TV Squad, check it out if you'd be so kind!

In other house doings into the evening:
  • They had fun with the HOH camera. That's always a highlight. BB really should give them some sort of arts and crafts, a Twister game, something!
  • It was very hot today and most of the suntanning crew is long gone -- Dustin and all. So they hid inside and napped a lot.
  • Amber thanked God for telling the DR people to tell her to fight to stay. (I don't think she realizes they tell every nominee that, especially the ones who seem down about the nomination.)
  • But Amber thinks God told them because she's a good person playing an honest game.
  • Eric studied things for a memory comp if one comes up. At different times he was joined by Jameka and Jessica.
  • Eric asked Zach if he would let Jessica know that he (Zach) isn't mad at her over the nominations. He's worried that she's upset about nominating him.
  • Eric told Zach that people are saying things to Jessica to hurt her feelings. Zach told him that he doesn't think Eric is just using her.
  • BB sprang for a huge feast for them tonight -- steak, lobster, and more. It's almost as if they had made a last meal request to the warden. Everything you could imagine!
  • They laughed at Amber for not knowing what "scrutinize" means.
  • Amber again thinks she'll get a modeling gig from the show.
  • We STILL have no meeting of the minds on the vote! Argh.
But we do have graphic artist Zoetawny's take on Amber being on America's Next Top Model!

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds Video

Amber and Jameka talk game. For Amber it might be too little too late, but the majority vote seems still up in the air in the house ... at this moment.

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds News (or lack there of) So Far 8/29


Since I last reported the "big news" -- Eric telling Jessica he did the Jen shirt mustarding and the odd votes, but not mentioning America's Player -- earlier today, not a lot has happened. Jessica is listening to her music, Jameka is repeatedly "Mmmm-mmm--mmm." Jessica should get the camera and write her HOH entry for the CBS website today.

Dick got up earlier than the rest, farting and burping while complaining about Daniele to us. He returned to bed.

Zach danced a dance for the amusement of Jessica and others -- his petting the cat dance.

Amber is miserable and whispering at Jameka. It's very hard to pick up what she's saying but it sounds like she spits when she whispers.


The REAL 'Dancing With the Stars' Cast Revealed

The TMZ spoilers was indeed a hoax post, but had some spot on. AOL has an article up on the real cast for the upcoming season.

Here's who you can expect to watch: Melanie "Scary Spice" Brown, Marie Osmond, Jane Seymour, model Albert Reed, pro boxer Floyd "Pretty Boy" Mayweather, Jr., Cameron Mathison from All My Children, Internet wealth tycoon Mark Cuban, actress Jennie Garth, model Josie Maran, racecar driver Helio Castrovneves, and actress-singer Sabrina Bryan.

I don't know half of these people. Your thoughts?

UPDATE -- ABC has updated their site and lists Wayne Newton there, so he's indeed in on the season.
