BB18: Live Feeds Bulletin - Nominations are in - July 1

Nominations are in. Paulie has nominated Paul and Bronte for eviction. He has a backdoor plan to get Victor evictored ... er, evicted.

A full report on the day's house events will be posted later tonight. Stop on back!

BB18: Live Feeds Report into Friday - July 1

Will his social game save him?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of From Zero to Hero:

• Okay, not really hero.
• But Paulie went from being on the block to winning HoH. It's kinda like that.
• James threw the comp (as they had talked about previously) so that Paulie could win and Victor would be the target.
• Paulie told Zakiyah that one of the people who voted to evict him would be going home this week.
• Let's see ... that would be either Victor or Paul or Bronte or Natalie. 
• Victor told Frank and Paul that he wouldn't be surprised if he goes up on the block.
• Well, duh. He shouldn't be after his Jozea Worship bit so far this season. Man, that guy picked the wrong horse in the race. Jozea's behavior should have turned anyone off from supporting him. In the end, Paul actually had conversations about Jozea going too far and Natalie wasn't entirely in his court. But Bronte and Victor were loyal to their chosen Messiah.
• Cough.
• Frank needs to watch himself a bit. Without Boogie to give him advice, he's straddling the line between both sides a bit too much. It's easy to fall off that tight wire.
• Paulie told Nicole that he knows Bronte and Natalie voted to evict him even though he told them they wouldn't have enough votes to save Josea.
• Paulie said his alliance needs to help decide nominations. But, no matter what, he wants Victor to go home.
• Heehee. Bronte is in a panic. It doesn't take much to get her going. Hey, she made the wrong choice of who to support and now she might have to pay for it. Miss Math Girl should have seen the odds.
• If the HoH decides who the Have Not (Team) is. James offered to go on slop just so Victor would be on it, hopefully weakening him for comps.
• Since Victor is a health food nut, seeing him on slop should be good for a giggle or two, too.
• But they're not sure the criteria for deciding who the Have Nots are for the week -- it could have something to do with the comp standings.
• Paul is pretty sure he will be nominated.
• Oh, that's quite possible. But he's not in as much danger of eviction right now as is Victor.
• Newbie recruit Paul doesn't get the big HoH reveal ceremony doings.
• I never could get excited about them, either. So, he may have a point there!
• Bronte and Victor talked about Da'Vonne and Zakiyah flipping and how shocked they were.
• Hey, those two didn't flip. They were just never with you in the first place, fools!
• Paulie doesn't want James or Frank falling for the wiles of any of the girls.
• Well, I doubt he's talking Nicole!
• Of the Jozea bunch, only Paul knows his downfalls and is willing to talk about them -- even before last night. It makes me wonder why Paul ever hooked up with them in the first place. I think it comes from not knowing BB at all. He thought it was all newbies versus veterans and that's obviously not the main goal. It's winning friends and allies and influencing others.
• Oh, yeah. Jozea influenced others ... to mock him and want him out!
• James said that if Victor confronts him, he'll go ahead and tell him he threw the comp.
• While Bronte panicked about not have a meat thermometer for their salmon, Bridgette lamented that everything they made had meat in it and she can't eat meat.
• Victor told Paul he thinks they could do something like the Brigade. First off, neither saw that season. So they have no clue what it was other than four guys going to the end. Those four all had decent social games. 'Nuff said, kiddies.
• Bridgette warns the guys of colon cancer risks if they put hot dogs in their rice. 
• Yep, she must be a bundle of fun when it comes to meals and snacking!
• Paul tried bonding with Paulie and Corey.
• I don't think it will work. Although Victor is the one Paulie wants out, Paul is his second choice.
• Can't blame him there.

Corey wears that pillow so well

Will her flirtmance with Paulie go on?

Who wants to see my HoH room?

Not going to San Francisco w/flowers in her hair

Making his brother proud

How will Victor do without his bromance?

BB18: Live Feeds -- HoH Comp -- June 30

As soon as the live feeds go back on, I'll update this with screen caps and the latest news!

10:06 PM ET, we have Jeff and taped bits. Oh, geez, it's make-over bits with Bronte screaming.

10:11 PM ET, still no live feeds, just taped segments with Jeff commentary.

10:16 PM ET and we have Jeff interviewing Glenn:

10:23PM ET - Still clips.

10:30 PM ET - Still clips.

10:40 PM ET - Still clips.

10:47 PM ET - FEEDS RETURN. The comp is over, have to figure out who won.  Oops, back to clips.

Still trying to figure out who won. Paulie said something about any of "them" could go up as long as one goes home. Hmm.

Whoa ... looks like Paulie is HoH! I'll correct that if I'm wrong.

YES! That's the HoH key he's wearing in addition to his mic cord.

PAULIE IS THE NEW HOH.

BB18: Live Eviction/HoH Show Blog Party - June 30

Are we ready for this? It's the first live eviction of the season. Glenn's eviction was neither live, nor a standard voted-on eviction. Producer Allison Grodner promises a special surprise. Although rumors are running rampant, there is no credible source for real information. So, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll be constantly updating this entry. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area!

Here are the blog pool picks going into tonight's show:

Let's get this show AWN!

Uh-oh. Julie just said that Glenn and tonight's evictee's games are far from over. Gah. And, we're into recap.

Heh, Julie is dissing Jozea in her intro speech.

In the house, Bridgette is worried. Jozea is still smug. His intuition is always right (according to him), so he knows that Paulie is the Road Kill winner. Ha. Victor is naming off people on their side that probably will NOT be voting to keep Jozea. Heehee. Jozea is sure it will be a landslide against Paulie. Jozea even tells Nicole he wants to work with her. She nods a lot but doesn't commit.

The Fatal Five girls alliance is formed - Nicole, Zakiyah, Da'Vonne, Michelle and Tiffany.

James is pranking. He put mayonnaise in the body lotion container.

They're editing the show to look like it could be either Bridgette or Jozea going home.

Victor is getting too controlling of others, Natalie is mad, James is mad.

Finally to the living room to talk to the nominees.
Jozea - Honest, truthful, bold, friendship, loyalty
Paulie - Pleasure to get to know you, hope to continue playing
Bridgette - Hope you keep me, sweet, friendly.

The live votes to evict:
Victor -- Paulie
Zakiyah -- Jozea
Paul -- Paulie
Frank -- Jozea
Onto commercial ...
Da'Vonne -- Jozea
Michelle -- Jozea
Bronte -- Paulie
Natalie -- Paulie
James -- Jozea
Tiffany -- Jozea
Corey -- Jozea

Ding, dong, the witch is dead ... for now.

Despite threats, he made a point of hugging everybody goodbye.

He thinks Natalie turned on him. People were weak-minded and all. He thinks the people just went against him just in the last few days. Heh. In the goodbye messages, Da'Vonne calls him out for the Messiah comment.

Julie tells him he has another chance to get back in the game -- the Battle Back sends one of the first five hamsters back into the house. Similar to the Survivor bit.

HoH comp time! Nicole can't compete, but her team can. Berry Balanced, race across the balance beam relay style, retrieve a berry, get ten to win. Can go longer easier beam or shorter harder one. If one falls, one out, but team keeps playing.

Natalie out.

I'll be setting up a separate live feeds post to cover the overflow of this event and the winners.

BB18: Live Feeds into Thursday - June 30

A subdued Jozea

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Loose Lips:

• They do sink ships, y'know.
• But first ...
• Nicole is all upset because Victor was showing an interest in her, but she thinks he's either using her for strategic reasons or just plain mean.
• Sheesh. She should know not to get hung up on a guy on the show!
• Especially one working the other side. 
• What's wrong with that girl?
• Tiffany is networking the girls a bit. She told Natalie she'll always have her back. Hmm.
• Nicole is all worried that if Victor or Paul win HoH, she'll be the target.
• Well, yeah. That could happen. But that's how the game is played.
• Corey told Nicole that girls always think he's gay because he doesn't take them up on passes. Hmm. Natalie is the latest to tell him she thinks he's gay. Methinks he has some issues going on.
• Bronte told Natalie that Jozea only wants Tiffany in their alliance for the vote and then they'll backstab her.
• Tiffany cried.
• Oh, not at that in particular. It just fit well here in the report and she has spent time crying after saying she wouldn't play an emotional game.
• Tiffany says that Natalie wants to vote with the majority of the house, but she needs to know how the majority of the house will vote.
• Oh my. Do they tell her that her buddy Jozea is going home??!?!!
• Frank thinks Tiffany might need to go next because she can't be trusted.
• He thinks she's trying to make moves.
• And he isn't?
• He's hoping the girls on the other side flip and the vote becomes 9-2.
• Hmm.
• Meanwhile, on the Dark Side, Paul is hating on both James and Michelle. He wants them out ... like yesterday!
• Victor did get a warning from production that he isn't allowed to hit anyone. That apparently was a result of the dust-up with James yesterday. Well, duh.
• I imagine they'd also not be happy if he put excrement in James's bed, another thought he had.
• Jozea thinks James is the one holding the other side together.
• I don't think so. It's more Frank or even Da'Vonne than James, I think.
• The Three Stooges and Stoogette -- Paul, Jozea, Victor and Bronte -- feel they need to target James first before anyone else.
• Paul thinks Nicole likes him.
• I think that Nicole wants to be nice to everybody even if she doesn't like them. But Paul, more so than the other three, can be likable at times. He's playing a better social game than Victor, Bronte or Jozea.
• Bridgette told Natalie that she trusts Frank for now because he's keeping her safe.
• He is? He's taking the credit for that? Oh my.
• Gah! Frank tells Natalie he doesn't want her on the "wrong side" and fills her in on the real house majority.
• He also advises her to throw HoH and she agrees she won't vote him out if he's nominated.
• Yiles! They didn't really need her as a number this vote! Why did he do that? I realize she's been saying all along that she wants to vote with the house majority. But, until now, she thought that was Paulie exiting!
• Now she'll run and break the news to Jozea or tell people who will tell Jozea. I wanted it to be a total blindside.
• Frank, you just ruined my "Good TV."
• Natalie told Frank that she's not stupid and realized the vote was going to keep Paulie.
• But, will she blab?
• Hmm.
• On a sidenote: Heehee, BB has had to tell Paul more than once to move his beard away from his mic.
• Sure enough ... Natalie goes to Victor and Bronte telling them she "has a feeling" that Jozea is going home.
• Thanks, Frank!
• Bronte is sure that Da'Vonne and Zakiyah will vote to keep Jozea.
• I'm sure she's wrong.
• Natalie says she will vote to keep Jozea.
• She, of course, will stick like glue with her new BFF Bronte.
• Bridgette, already with little trust in Frank's group, is getting sucked in even more by Bronte and Natalie. She had been starting to lean away a bit.
• Bridgette does trust Frank for now because he's keeping them safe.
• Now Natalie doesn't know if she can trust Bridgette.
• It's a vicious cycle, I know.
• Things were interrupted by a birthday party for Nicole in the living room.
• But that only lasted so long.
• The HoH group says that Frank told Natalie and then Natalie told Bronte and Bridgette.
• Yep, that's about how it went down.
• Thanks, Frank.
• Jozea says he's going to curse all out, including Julie, if he gets the boot.
• I guess the censors will be on guard for the live show.
• Tiffany cried over Frank being a "male chauvinist."
• Drama, drama and then a side dish of drama.
• And now Jozea knows that he might be in peril despite how loved he is.
• But he still thinks he's staying.
• Ha.

Sippy Paul

Uh-oh

Midnight gathering

Channeling Vanessa's tears?

Natalie trying to figure things out

When in doubt, wear a hat in the house
