Big Brother 15: Live Eviction Show Blog Party - 7/03


If you're following the scorecard, by the end of this evening, it will be one evicted, two fired. If you're unaware of what I'm talking about, check out my last post.

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll update this post with major happenings -- refresh the page to get the latest news!

But, as always, the real party is in the comments area. Come join us!

The pool picks are (if you've forgotten your hamster or want to forget your hamster:
Aaryn - QuixoticElf, Isabelle, April Weaver, Donna in FL
Amanda - Petals, JimmyB, Barb S., PDX Granny
Andy - Nickelpeed, jessica Underwood, Patti, Brent McKee

Ah, they're going to show part of the brouhaha over the wine. Showing the showmances and the idea of keeping Elissa to "weaponize" her with the power of the MVP nom each week.

The three noms get a brief statement. Jessie, happy birthday dad, great week. Elissa - target since day one, keep target around, no one comes between me and my BB game. David - stand up guy, will wear pink dress again.

The vote:
Amanda - David
Aaryn - Elissa
Nick - David
Candice - Elissa
Spencer - David
Kaitlin - Elissa

More after commercial ...

Helen - David
Howard - David
GinaMarie - Elissa
Judd - David
Jeremy - Elissa
Andy - David

Julie tells them David is evicted ... Aaryn is stunned. She looks like a zombie.

David did his interview with Julie. The dude is SO clueless.

BBMVP voting is announced.

HoH comp time! Tomorrow is the 4th of July -- BB BBQ, picked balls out of a bag to pick a partner. Fill cup of BBQ sauce, down lane to partner, first one to remove ping pong ball from jug wins. Small jug has two cups for the team to remove the ball more quickly. The winning pair must decide amongst themselves which will be HoH.

Ah, an endurance. I'll post an update post when the feeds come up and keep you updated!  
 

Big Brother 15: Live Feeds Pre-Eviction and GinaMarie fired, too

Today's Howard-a-Day screencap

Today's one of those days that more interesting stuff about Big Brother is coming from outside the house rather than inside it. I told you about Aaryn getting fired from her talent agency in my last post. Now GinaMarie has also been fired from her pageant gig. I feel the need to mention just yesterday in her breakdown she was saying how much she hated her job. Well, now she won't have to deal with it!

Here's the latest from inside the Big Brother House of the Rapidly Unemployed:
  • My gosh, Helen trains like a prizefighter. 
  • The live eviction days in the house are usually full of housekeeping and primping.
  • Although this is the first live eviction show for these hamsters, they're following tradition.
  • The more I see of Howard, the more I like him. I believe I respect him, too.
  • I don't say that of many hamsters, past or present.
  • Elissa thinks that if she gets voted out, BB will think of a way to put her back in because "they worked too hard getting me in here."
  • Hmm. I don't like that.
  • I have nothing against Elissa as a player in the game. At least she's not coming across as stupid and bigoted. BUT ... are they paying her more than the others? What will they stoop to to keep her in the house?
  • Inquiring minds want to know.
  • That said, BB seemingly has nothing to do with David being the target this week.
  • About the only BB connection is that they think Elissa will keep getting voted MVP and they can use that as a back-up plan for a backdoor.
  • Howard had a long talk with Helen about using her head not her heart in the game.
  • Jeremy told Spencer that he (Jeremy) has a secret alliance with Helen until the fourth eviction.
  • Does Helen know this?
  • Lots of small talk, lots of "what if" scenarios about HoH winner.
  • Typical.
  • Remember -- tonight's live eviction show is at 8pm ET. Next week it moves to Thursday 9pm ET. We'll be losing the Tuesday night show next week for Sunday, Wednesday and Thursday.

Big Brother 15: Aaryn fired by her modeling agency

Poser

Tons of articles out there, here is but one. While in looks, she's quite pretty, she's not pretty when she's tossing out the gay, Asian and black slurs. Not at all.

If you do a Google search for "aaryn big brother" -- you'll find many more.

Do you think she deserves the shun from her agency? Do you think she can in any way redeem herself?

Big Brother 15: Live Feeds Tuesday Night into Wednesday 7/02 - 7/03

Stupid is as stupid does

So, Momma proud of you now, Jeremy?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Disgusting Behavior:
  • Okay, since I led off with the shot, even though it's a bit out of order, I'll go there first.
  • Not that I really want to go there, mind you!
  • Just when Jeremy was starting to redeem himself a teensy bit with me, he took Elissa's cap and wiped his butt with it.
  • That's just nasty. I guess he thought of Shannon with Hardy's toothbrush and wanted to make more of a name for himself.
  • It even tops Spencer's odd flashing while going down the stairs yesterday.
  • He did get into trouble with BB for it and had to confess and apologize to Elissa.
  • He said it was stupid and immature.
  • Y'think?
  • He told her BB is dry cleaning her hat (I still wouldn't wear it!) and that he will buy her a new hat from his BB stipend earnings.
  • @@
  • He claimed to be very sorry.
  • I don't think he came across as all that sincere.
  • Elissa is concerned about his lack of respect for women.
  • Hey, he's a Mommy's boy! :::looking towards his Mom, wherever she may be:::
  • He told the others it wasn't a big deal. He also downplayed exactly what he did when apologizing to Elissa.
  • Back to the other happenings ...
  • Helen said her husband told her not to take the phone call from home if it's offered as a prize. I guess he wants her to concentrate on the game at hand.
  • Nick and Andy talked about Trader Joe's. Mmm.
  • GinaMarie thinks Candice's voice sounds "too white."
  • Say what? I'm speechless.
  • Thankfully I can still write.
  • Behind blocked feeds, they rehearsed for the eviction show.
  • While McCrae is very antsy as he'll be losing his safety, Spencer and Howard think they're smooth sailing as they get along with all.
  • Howard told the guys that Helen's workout almost killed him. It did. I saw. That Helen's one tough physical cookie. Who woulda thunk it?
  • Aaryn finally apologized to Candice about her fit over the bent hat. Candice alluded to the fact that had she actually sat on it, it would be more than bent.
  • They're all worried about the lack of beds situation.
  • The Have Not comp will solve that one.
  • Nick told Elissa he's "voting with the house." We know that means David.
  • Elissa, on the other hand, does not know for sure that means David.
  • Aaryn said that Elissa would look better if she didn't have a man's bone structure.
  • Oh, come on now. My only personal problem with Elissa's looks is that she reminds me too much of Rachel and Rachel annoyed me to no end. She doesn't have a "man's bone structure." She's not unattractive.
  • Aaryn needs to realize a pretty face means nothing if it covers an ugly soul.
  • Or something like that.
  • Helen thinks she's the only one who's not an actor, actress or model in the house. She's not that far off, but I give you: McCrae, Spencer ... who else?
  • Amanda, not knowing about the MC, wants Nick out before Aaryn.
  • In a way, she has a good point -- Nick is more popular and good in comps. If Aaryn ever made it to the end without her Bieber Fever buddies, she wouldn't get even one vote to win.
  • Amanda also said that the Diary Room has been hinting to Aaryn that David might be leaving.
  • Now, that's just not right! We've been through this before with the DR steering hamsters. Stop that, Big Brother.
  • BB must have really come down on Jeremy (as they should). He told Judd that he didn't know a HG could be expelled from the house.
  • The plan is still for a majority vote to evict David.
  • They're all sleeping as I post this.

Packing the HoH room

Ouchies!

Big Brother 15: Nominations, MVP Show Blog Party - 7/02


Hamsterwatchers! Are you ready? Tonight is the nominations show blog party! Come one! Come all!

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll update this entry with the major happenings. But the real party, as always, is in the comments area. Come join us!

McCrae nominated Candice and Jessie.

Everybody thinks Elissa will be the MVP because of Rachel.

And, yes. America (Rachel fans) chose Elissa for MVP. She tells McCrae, telling him to keep it a secret. She also seeks advice on the nominee. He suggests David. He tells her he will be putting her on the block (because it's what the house wants and he needs to think of his own game) if the veto is used. Then he told her she'd still be safe.

Time to pick players for the veto comp! But, first ... the MVP nomination. The video screen stops on David's photo. So, McCrae randomlypicks - Elissa, Howard.

David is mad. Aaryn cries because he doesn't trust her. She blames him for making her cry in front of the house although HE is the one on the block.

McCrae, getting closer to Amanda, tells her that Elissa won MVP. He told her not to say anything since he's the only one who knows. Elissa keeps lying about it to others.

Veto comp time - The guy from the American Baking Competition is there. Howard says he'll get to see honeys in honey and smiles a lot. They have to go through honey, retrieve blueberry letters out of batter one at a time and spell the longest word they can spell. All are done. Well, except David. He chose too big a word. He's out of time.

The words:
Howard: sailing
Jessie: tumbled
Candice: rafts
David: didn't spell anything
Elissa: pot roast - eliminated - two words
McCrae: delivery

McCrae wins the PoV.

He feels he has to put Elissa on the block to keep himself in good graces with the house. Meanwhile, Nick thinks the Moving Company needs to get rid of David and they can use Elissa's MVP possibilities down the road. McCrae is in a quandary. Poor hamster.

Veto meeting time! McCrae uses the veto to save Candice. He puts Elissa on the block in her place. Told her better for the harmony of the house if she were to go home this week.

McCrae tells US that Elissa is NOT the target and won't be going home this week.
