Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds into Monday Evening, July 12

She Blinded Me With Science (Science!) -- They've known each other for a week.

Sunny Lane

What's the scoop from inside that Big Brother House of Meowsers? Here ya go:

• Most of the hamsters stayed up all night. They better quit that.
• Andrew, one of the few who went to bed at a fairly decent hour, was the first up.
• No, I didn't see him sabotage anything. He did his prayers, then ate breakfast.
• Only Enzo and Andrew were already up when BB tried to wake everyone at a bit after 9 AM their time.
• After Annie campaigned to Kathy (who sympathized with her but didn't promise anything), Kathy told Rachel she has her vote (to stay).
  
• So, actually, Annie has Kathy's vote if we want to get all nitpicky ... since the vote is to evict.
• Lane is possibly the sole vote to keep Annie. Maybe Matt, but I don't think so.
• Matt told Annie he thinks that Rachel and Brendon knew each other outside of the house. True, the showmance has gone down so quickly that it's possible. But it's more likely Matt is just telling her that, whether to pander to her or to stir things up.
• Hayden and Ragan think if Annie stays, she's a floater and will flip. Neither can read Enzo.
• Although there was a lockdown, there was no comp.
  
• Ragan told them that Natalie was spelled as Gnatalie on message boards.
• Brendon and Rachel sucked face. Again.
• Not live feeds, but just wanted to mention Julie Chen will be on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson tonight.

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Into the Wee Hours - Monday, July 12

Interesting ... when Annie had her big reveal of her bi-sexuality to Britney, Monet and Kathy, she said "they" told her it might be best to hide it from the house. And yes, that's who she's with (and still awake) as I type this up. She really doesn't want to go and is definitely working for the votes to stay.



Matt gets some fiber in his diet so the slop isn't as hard to take. I'm still waiting to see what that bandage on his bicep covers. I remember one covered rather innocuous tattoo on James was the Brawny paper towel man -- it was considered advertising.

• Enzo cooked up fish and chips for many of the hamsters. Who knew he could cook anything?
• In campaigning, Annie is working the "break up a strong couple and get rid of Rachel" card.
• Rachel went to Brendon's bed at around 10 PM their time and the BB voice yelled at her twice that "it's time to get up for the day!" Since she's a Have Not, she's not supposed to sleep in there.
• At midnight (their time), the Have Nots were allowed to eat. They all had a big toast and the Have Nots rejoiced.
• Yes, BB gave them alcohol. Andrew seemed to get drunk on a single beer.
• I hope the beer was kosher.
• As the gals sans Rachel bond in the yard, upstairs in the HOH room Hayden, Matt and Lane talk about everyone.
• Where's Rachel and Brendon? Oh, you know.
• My show review is up on TV Squad and I hope the hamsters go to bed sometime soon because they're really boring.
• Later!
  

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Into Sunday Evening, July 11

A slip 'n' slide was made out of a box of garbage bags.

Well, Sundays are sort of quiet in the house with the exception of the POV Meeting. Nothing has changed this season. Most of the day pre-meeting was Annie trying to secure a position in the house as she figured she was going to go on the block. Yet when she went on the block, she freaked and started slamming her stuff into a suitcase and saying how she wants to go home NOW.

• Rachel herself was upset. She had everyone consoling her.
• Lane tried to calm Annie down.
• Annie and Britney had a cat fight. Meow, not Mafia.
• Both had been actively campaigning against each other going into the meeting.
• Britney said Annie was trying to get alliances going with everyone in the house.
• Actually, most are trying for what they can get.
• Annie went to Hayden to spill beans on people, but it wasn't much that anyone else didn't know already.
• Hayden told her not to mess with Britney or she'll destroy any chance she has of staying.
• Annie has no chance in staying against Rachel. It's pretty much a done deal, I think.
• Annie went from wildly packing, yelling, and flipping off the cameras to "woe is me." She said she's probably lost her job, her family, her life and everything.
• Even Brendon, who has his own reasons to want Rachel to stay, tried to give Annie a pep talk.
• Annie is campaigning for votes. She told Lane she needs two or three more.
• She probably needs more than that.
• And, to think she dyed her hair for the show! Horrors!
  
• Lane wanted to know what Enzo's wearing for TV tonight. Oh, sure. Worry about Showtime but not the millions on the Internet!
  

Andrew hugs Rachel ... not a showmance.

The saboteur duct-taped crosses on Britney and Kathy's photos, then told everyone to observe, listen, watch their backs.

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Bulletin - POV Meeting Over

The feeds were blocked for a long time, came back and, as expected, Annie is replacing Brendon on the block. So, it's Annie and Rachel nominated for eviction. She's not handling it well at all. Lane made the effort to console her, but she would like to have alcohol instead.
