Celebrity Big Brother: Sunday Night Show Blog Party - Feb. 11

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll be updating and live-blogging away the best I can. Refresh the post to get the latest news! For more information on how I'll be handling this season on the blog as well as the show schedule, check this post out. As always, the real party is in the comments area -- join on in!

Recap first ... of course. 

Into the aftermath of Chuck's eviction. James is being all kinds of smug. Metta thinks they're all animals in the house. Well, that goes for every season, kiddo! 

Ross, James, Shannon and Ari make a final four deal. Omarosa and Keshia think they can only trust each other. Shannon tries to explain why they did what they did. She tells Omarosa that the others thought she (O) had a side deal with Chuck. Omarosa doesn't think Marissa or Brandi could ever come up with strategy.

True to Omarosa form, she's exerting control. Shannon isn't comfortable. So, she thinks she should tell the rest about Omarosa and her having a deal since the first day and that she had been using it for information gathering. 

Heh. Omarosa and Keshia have to explain backdoor to Metta. He tells them he voted for Chuck to stay. Bwahahaha! They tell him the vote was to evict.

Time for the HoH comp -- it's the spinning/bowling one. They're all in tutus. Names are drawn for the order in which they compete against each other.

Omarosa tries to control them by conniving before they all start. 

Omarosa chooses Marissa. Marissa wins. Omarosa is having breathing problems. She has asthma and needs her inhaler.

Ross chooses Metta. ROSS wins! 

Mark chooses Brandi. MARK wins.

James chooses Ari. JAMES wins. 

Shannon chooses Mark. MARK wins.

Marissa chooses James. JAMES wins.

Ross chooses Mark. ROSS wins.

Ross against James. James tells us he will throw it. ROSS wins HoH!

All they know at this point is that Omarosa seems to be missing. They search, but she's nowhere in the house.

Ross says he doesn't want to make big waves and is thinking Omarosa and Keshia. That is IF Omarosa returns. 

Marissa and Shannon think Omarosa won't come back, mainly because the comp didn't go her way.

Ross talks to Marissa about possibly putting up either Shannon or James on the block with Keshia if Omarosa doesn't come back. 

Ross gathers them all as he has received a message. "Omarosa has been taken to the hospital due to an asthma attack. She will return to the house before nominations and the game will proceed as normal." 

Ross is reluctant to nominate someone coming back from the hospital. He sees James and Shannon on the spycam and they agree those are the two who they should worry about. 

All of a sudden they realize that Omarosa is in bed. I guess they don't realize they probably sent her in via the Diary Room. They all hug her. Ross is still in a quandary about nominations.

Nominations ceremony. Ross nominates Omarosa and then Keshia. Ross tries to tell them it's Big Brother. Omarosa cuts him off and speaks for Keshia as well as herself telling him doesn't need to go on.

Remember ... tomorrow at 8pm ET/PT is the live eviction show.

Celebrity Big Brother: Live Feeds into Sunday - Feb. 11

A bite of the poisoned apple?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Legends in Their Own Minds:

• Ah, Keshia (who said yesterday that she wants to go home) told Mark that she now realizes the person behind all the problems people have with her is ... Omarosa!
• Mind you, it's Keshia and Omarosa on the block, nominated by Ross.
• So ... Keshia wants to go home yet is going to campaign against Omarosa?
• And then she worked on Ross and Marissa.
• Hmm.
• Keshia and Metta (two of the three black folks in the house) are both angry that Omarosa has tried to work racial issues into things.
• Mark continues to work his way in with the In Kids.
• Omarosa mingled with them, as well.
• And, she was even cordial and non-confrontational.
• Oh my.
• She has Ross doubting which persona is real, the Nice Omarosa or Evil Omarosa.
• I personally think she can bring either out dependent on the situation.
• He thinks that anyone against Omarosa in the Final Two will win.
• So, now he wants her to stay? Hmm.
• Ross and Marissa remain the closest alliance in the house.
• They're worried about James winning HoH. They think he'd put them on the block.
• Ross told Marissa that Shannon did indeed throw HoH.
• Well, she shouldn't be winning all the comps! She's already put the target on her own back without any help from others.
• They also wonder, if they keep Keshia, will they be able to work with her?
• Ross thinks that Shannon and James are the biggest threats in the game, but it's too early to go after either of them.
• Marissa thinks they should make a big move.
• They ponder backdooring Shannon.
• Oh my!
• Ari and Brandi seem to be quite tight -- perhaps not as tight as Ross and Marissa, but ..!
• Metta has decided he needs to nap everywhere he can in the house. When the others told him about people posting segments of hamsters, he got even more excited about it. Excited enough to go for a nap.
• Ross and Marissa wonder if the fans are having Metta do strange things like trying to escape and napping all over.
• No, we're not. Metta is strange enough on his own.
• Brandi got miffed that people were lying to her about being out of wine.
• "Don't EVER lie to me about wine!"
• The rest do actually want to limit her imbibing because she goes overboard.
• She is apparently aptly named.
• Ross feels left out because he invited everyone up to the HoH and no one came.
• So, it's not just Keshia.
• Marissa told him it's because they all pretty much know what is what.
• Hmm.
• They will play for veto today.  

Not a target

Do NOT lie about no wine left!

Rather mellow ... watch out!

Sir Naps-A-Lot

Celebrity Big Brother: Live Feeds into Saturday Night, Nominations - 02/10

I really like the bathroom!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of D-List Doofuses:

• It was a bad asthma attack that sent Omarosa off to the hospital. So, she didn't break a foot or anything.
• I can see why she had it with the spinning/bowling comp. That would be rough on a person with breathing problems.
• The other hamsters were kept in the dark about whether Omarosa would return to the house or not ... until she walked in late afternoon/early evening.
• So, she's back.
• Of course, it put a hitch in any strategic planning that might be going down.
• Keshia thinks that the others threw the HoH comp to Ross. Metta denies it because Ross beat him and he (Metta) really wanted to win.
• Oh, yeah. Now Metta wants to stay again.
• James even called him out on flip-flopping on staying or going.
• "I'm here to play."
• Um. Okay ... Metta.
• One thing I think Metta has spot on is that he told Keshia that he believes Omarosa is so upset because she can't control things -- in the house, no one can control things.
• Yup, yup, yup. It's not quite The Apprentice.
• Now Keshia says she wants to go home. She says she misses her daughter.
• Last night she was worried that she would be the next eviction target.
• We had lots of Critter Cam on and off.
• Omarosa came back just to ...
• ... be nominated for eviction.
• Yes, the news is finally in.
• Ross nominated Keshia and Omarosa for eviction.

Should I stay or should I go?

Chow down

What? A different cap for each day?

Make faces like no one is watching

Omarosa is back in da house

Celebrity Big Brother: Live Feeds into Saturday, HoH - Feb. 10

Bunny Cam!

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

• No, I don't have any good screen caps (other than Bunny Cam!) for you as most of the time was indeed Critter Cam.
• After the live show ended (on the west coast) we all saw the Omarosa we love to hate. Spitfire in that girl!
• Metta thought he voted to keep Chuck when in actuality, the vote is to evict. He claims confusion, telling Omarosa and Keshia that he meant to vote with them.
• At least, that's what he told them.
• Keshia is as salty as Omarosa about the blindside, but certainly doesn't have quite Omarosa's flare for drama (despite the fact that she's the actress out of the two).
• Ross tried to strike up a deal with Metta. Y'see, Metta still wants to go home. Ross told him he'd work with him to get him out within three days but Omarosa/Keshia would keep him until the final three.
• Metta doesn't think they'd keep him in that long.
• But, then again, he didn't realize there was a girls alliance.
• He feels he was "disrespected" by all for not being sent home. So, now Metta wants to win HoH and put James and Shannon on the block.
• Hmm.
• Metta told Ross that, no matter what happens, if Ross makes it to the end, he has his vote.
• Ross tried to remind him that it was Keshia who didn't nominate him (Metta), not Shannon or James.
• Oh, well.
• Metta claims not to be in any alliance, but does like those people Ross likes.
• Ross warned him that Omarosa and Keshia will push him.
• After Ross left the room, Metta turned to the camera and told us that he's glad he's not playing 100% but he would try to win HoH.
• Brandi told Ross and Ari that Omarosa made a snide comment about the "white girls alliance."
• I'm not sure if Omarosa said it or not -- I didn't see her say it. To be honest, I wouldn't put it past her to go there. But, maybe it's Brandi instigating. I just don't know.
• Later on, Omarosa confronted Shannon about how she (Shannon) didn't want to be an "evil scheming b****." 
• Oh my.
• After Shannon tried to explain everything that went down from her own point of view, Omarosa still lit into her.
• Now, THAT is Omarosa Mad and we all know from The Apprentice that it makes good TV but you don't want to live around that!
• (It turns out we might not have to, but read on.)
• Shannon told Ross, Brandi, Marissa and Ari that she had made an alliance on Day One with Omarosa and that's where she got information she shared with them.
• But it's all over now!
• Then we went into Critter Cam for hours and hours.
• Ross won HoH! You go, Ross!
• It sounds like it was the spinning and bowling comp.
• Omarosa got hurt and had to go to the hospital. As of the time I'm getting this written up, she hasn't returned.
• Marissa beat Omarosa in the comp while Ross beat Metta.
• Ross told Marissa that, if someone within the alliance wins PoV, he won't want his nominations changed -- he doesn't want to backdoor anyone. He wants to be honest and straightforward about everything in the noms.
• But ... who will he nominate?
• They didn't say! And, now they're asleep.

Celebrity Big Brother: Friday Night Blog Party - Feb. 09

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll be updating and live-blogging away the best I can. Refresh the post to get the latest news! For more information on how I'll be handling this season on the blog as well as the show schedule, check this post out. As always, the real party is in the comments area -- join on in!

And, yes ... it's two hours tonight. Eep. 

Julie is dressed better tonight -- no boxy big red dress! 

We start off with a recap. I expected that. It is indeed the first live eviction with PoV and eviction all included.

James thinks he was put up for no reason. How wrong can he be? Keshia, like Shannon before her, wants to target James. Chuck wouldn't have been Keshia's choice if he hadn't gone for the bag. Shannon hints to James that he's not the target in hopes that he won't try super hard to win the veto.

Mark told James that if he (Mark) wins veto, he'll use it to save him.

Omarosa told Keshia that seven people alliances on BB never work out and suggests BGM -- Black Girl Magic. In other words, an alliance between the two of them. Omarosa tells us that it's just a side alliance because she thinks her first ally, Shannon, has gotten a target on her back.

Random Veto Pick time --
Keshia, Chuck and James. Keshia gets Houseguest's Choice and goes for Shannon. James ends up with Ari. Chuck gets Mark. She chooses Omarosa to host the comp.

Mark foolishly tells Keshia he is thinking of saving James if he wins veto. Uh-oh. She then talks to Chuck.  

A segment with Julie about what they miss from home. Julie lets them in on a few happenings with a true/false headlines game. Nothing that will affect the game, but what about no information from the outside world? Hmm.

The Four Seasons Spiritual Spa is the set-up for the veto comp. It's a retrieving letters, spelling the longest word comp. There is a punishment for losers. Giant noses sneeze on them as they scramble about for letters.

Ari - WAING
Mark - SOME
Keshia - PRIMED
Shannon - RESPONSIBILITIES
James - FAMIL
Chuck - SPANNED 

Ari and James get costumes. Shannon wins PoV!

Keshia wants Shannon to take Chuck down, put Mark up (because he said he'd use the veto to save James) and still target James. Ross doesn't think the plan makes sense, but would go with it.

Omarosa tells Shannon that she's only thinking for herself and not the alliance because Shannon wanted to talk to Chuck. Ah, a bit of Control-arosa has arrived! Ross is feeling left out because he thinks the women alliance might be dismissive of him. Cracks are forming. 

Brandi, who knows and "loves" Ross, is shocked. Yes, shocked, at how they're treating him. He goes on to talk to Marissa. Now she's questioning her alliance and feels she let down her community. Oh, tears flow quietly. Ross tells us that he will let them all underestimate him right up to the finale.  

Ari and James's punishment is to wear baby costumes and crawl instead of walk. Every time a baby crying is played, they have to suck their bottles.

Keshia tells Omarosa that she thinks James and Mark are more dangerous than Chuck in the game. They want Shannon to take Chuck down. Ross thinks that's bad for Shannon's game and tells her so.  

When Shannon goes to Keshia about it, Keshia is a bit abrupt and reminds her that they had all agreed. Omarosa and Keshia are pushing their BGM bit. Shannon is just getting all befuddled and frustrated. Brandi now seems to have declared (although not to anyone but us) Omarosa as her personal Public Enemy Number One. 

Shannon tells Omarosa that "someone" told her that using the veto would benefit Omarosa more than anyone else. Omarosa thinks it's Brandi and that the move is perfect -- taking Chuck down and putting Mark up. Oh, geez. Shannon cries and seems to agree with her.

Time for the veto meeting!
Of course, James is interrupted by the crying baby and must drink from his bottle.
James - Had a lot of fun, good sport, want to continue, did not use the bag, good ally.
Chuck - Like them, having fun, playing the game by going for the bag, good ally.

Shannon does NOT use the veto. Both Keshia and Omarosa look very displeased.  

Segment with commentary from Ian, Derrick, Nicole and Josh. 

Ross builds his alliance with Shannon. Neither of them trust Omarosa. Shannon would like to flip the vote and get James to work with her and Ross. Shannon brings Marissa, Ari and Brandi into the flip idea.  

To the living room for the live vote.
James - Humble and filled with gratitude 
Chuck - Great to get to know you all, will try to help others

The votes to evict:
Brandi - Chuck
Ari - Chuck
Omarosa - James
Ross - Chuck
Metta - Chuck
Marissa - Chuck
Shannon - Chuck
Mark - Chuck 

The flip worked. I personally LIKE Chuck more than I like James. I don't care for James at all. But it will throw more chaos into the game. That's always good. 

Omarosa and Keshia are shocked. Omarosa ran ahead to the door, giving him something and telling him it was from Omarosa. Hmm. 

All of the evicted hamsters will be on the jury. A big difference is that they aren't sequestered and can watch it all. He got sad goodbye messages. Everyone liked him. He was just in the wrong eviction chair at the wrong time.

Sunday will be the HoH/nominations show. Not sure when they'll actually play for it. But when I know, you'll know.
