Celebrity Big Brother: Live Feeds, PoV into Sunday - Feb. 25

Dreaming it's a sunny day?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Down to the Line Chamsters:

• Yesterday was boring for them until it wasn't.
• It was boring for us and then became more boring.
• Well, not necessarily boring, per se.
• We had Critter Cam. 
• Okay ... so, here's the skinny on what went down ...
• We know, despite the athletic ability needed, Ross won the HoH comp that was teased about in last night's taped television show.
• We also know that he nominated Ari and Omarosa.
• His target is Omarosa.
• Of course.
• Hey, had she won, you just know that she'd be targeting Ross!
• Omarosa knows she's in trouble. So, she goes into trying to cast suspicion and doubt on Ari -- someone with whom she previously got along.
• That only strengthened the bond between Ari and both Marissa and Ross.
• Omarosa worked her way closer with Mark.
• But, if nominations remain the same, it's too little, too late.
• Only Marissa and Mark can vote to evict in that case. Ross would have to break a tie. Buh-bye Omarosa.
• They all had to start packing as, no matter who gets evicted, it's the last night for all of them in the house.
• We got a taste of the production voice, not to be confused with the BB piped voice in the house.
• Production (Heath?) told them the veto would be played one by one and they'd each be sequestered in separate rooms.
• That set Marissa off -- "I don't like that! We're stuck alone for HOURS!"
• They did a random pick for playing order which actually went out over the live feeds -- that may be a first.
• It went from first to last -- Ross, Ari, Omarosa, Marissa, Mark.
• Then we had Critter Cam.
• For hours.
• When it was all said and done, ROSS won the Power of Veto!
• So, he is not only the deciding tiebreaker vote, he holds all the power.
• I'm sure it will be bye-bye Omarosa.
• Not that she'll go out without trying her Omarosa best to stay!
• I am seeing, unlike the friction between Brandi and James that is an outright dislike, although they've targeted each other from the start -- Omarosa and Ross are probably going to be friends after this.
• Who woulda thunk it?
• But back to the house ...
• Immediately, Omarosa steps up her Smear Ari Game, putting Ari in tears.
• Ross and Marissa console Ari.
• Even Mark, the closest with Omarosa at this point, felt bad for Ari.
• Ross and Marissa practiced Final Two speeches.
• Hmm.
• Omarosa told Mark that she heard (three separate times) that he was playing for second place.
• He denied it.
• Oh, yeah. He just might not know it.
• But if he makes it to the final two against anyone remaining, he's second place.
• Well, maybe Marissa and Mark? Hmm. I still think he'd probably be second.
• Tons of small talk until they went to bed.
• It's kind of looking like Omarosa just might be accepting her fate. 

Random picking for PoV order

HoH and PoV winner!

Catching a nap before the comp

Celebrity Big Brother: Saturday Season Review Show Blog Party

Greetings! I expect tonight's show to be a review of the season or one of those "never seen before" clips shows. It's to end with the start of the HoH comp which, in actuality, went down late last night. While it was blocked to the live feeds, the results are in my most recent live feeds update.

I won't be actually live-blogging tonight's show due to (1.) it's probably a clips show and (B.) my back is really being evil today. However, I probably will jump in with what details we get on the HoH comp.

So, this one is for you -- anyone who wants to hang out in the comments. I'll probably have a few comments of my own! 

They're starting with a recap. 

They promise the start of the HoH and the chamsters "look back on the season." Oh! And never seen before footage! 

Heh. A segment on Mark's cleaning addiction matches a recent live feeds screen cap I posted and captioned: "Sir Cleans A Lot." 

Many clips later, we have the start of the HoH. The yard is a winter scene at Mount BB. They're on suspended in the air ski type platforms. It's snowing. They're moving all around. 

And, there we go.

Celebrity Big Brother: Live Feeds, HoH into Saturday - Feb. 24

Somebunny is the new HoH?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of One More Night:

• Critter Cam after the live show ended.
• Extended Critter Cam.
• Followed by ... Critter Cam.
• When the feeds finally returned, we have a new HoH.
• Annnd ... it's ROSS (once again).
• He apparently made some kind of deal with Mark not to put him (Mark) on the block.
• The numbers have dwindled so much that there isn't much choice.
• I think his strong bond with Marissa keeps him from putting her on the block unless he has to do so.
• He is (currently) planning to put Omarosa and Ari on the block.
• Ross's target (once again or still) is Omarosa.
• He says ANYONE but Omarosa needs to win the veto.
• Anyone.
• But not Omarosa.
• I dunno.
• Omarosa has proved to be pretty good at comps.
• She's better than Marissa at them and better than Mark most of the time.
• Aha! Ross says his deal with Mark is that if he wins the veto, he must use it to save Ari and that he will vote Omarosa out.
• Despite all the scheming and wheeling and dealing, they all are getting along together just fine.
• They're also neater than the normal hamsters.
• Mark, James, Metta and Brandi were the most housekeeping chamsters this season.
• One thing I've caught onto that differs from the "normal" hamsters is that this crowd actually cares about the perception of the public more. They're definitely more interested in not making total idiots of themselves on national television and the Internet.
• They're all asleep now.  

Once again, he's HoH

Sir Cleans A Lot

Watch out, Ross!

Celebrity Big Brother: Live Double Eviction Show Blog Party - Feb. 23

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!

ALERT! ALERT! - Survivor: Ghost Island starts up next Wednesday! The blog pool is open but you need to sign up for it ONLY ON THIS LINKED POST. Requests not on that post might be missed. And, I don't think y'all know how annoying it is that every season people regularly in the pools want in after the deadline. If you want in on the blog pool, go to the post and sign up before the deadline. Please! 

The recap ended and Julie tells us there are more alliances in the house than houseguests left in the game. She's so right about that!

Mark wants Brandi gone out of the Brandi/Ari nominations. We get the standard "I have to win veto" speeches.

Omarosa, like both Mark and James, wants Brandi out. James tells Ari that Brandi is the target. She's worried that Brandi will win veto.

Time for Omarosa's obligatory White House moment. 

Veto Player random picks -- Mark got who he didn't want -- Omarosa. Brandi also got her nemesis James. Ari got Marissa. 

Ross isn't playing his hand too well with Ari. Hmm.

Julie tells the house it's a double eviction. But they knew it had to happen. 

A segment on Brandi acting out. She even dared people to say something bad about Julie. Then she decides to poke at James. She is right when she says he can be super cocky.  Then Brandi gets upset at Marissa for not standing up for her. 

PoV Comp -- compete one at a time at a secret location, then to HoH to watch the others compete. A BB Toy Company, action figure faces don't match the body. It's a morph type comp. 

Omarosa up first. She tells us she doesn't want to win this veto and deliberately messes up. 38.52 minutes. She tells Ross that she thinks she should be the choice for a final two with him.

Ari up next. 9.10
James is up. Disqualified after he went past Ari's time.
Marissa is up. Disqualified after she went past Ari's time.
Mark is up. Disqualified after he went past Ari's time.
Brandi is up. Disqualified after she went past Ari's time.

ARI wins the Power of Veto! 

Brandi wants Omarosa to be put in Ari's place. Mark isn't sure. He still wants Brandi out. 

Mark tells James that he's nominating Marissa -- twofold in reasoning. He wants Brandi out and fears if he puts up Omarosa then Brandi might not be voted out. Plus Marissa has never been on the block.

Veto Meeting time -- Ari saves herself. Mark puts Marissa on the block. 

Live Eviction One time --
Marissa - Won't campaign against Brandi, cancer survivor, love to family
Brandi - Amazing friendships, love a lot of you, hope Ari wins, shocked Omarosa and I get along.

The votes to evict:
James - Brandi
Ari - Marissa
Ross - Brandi
Omarosa - Brandi

No surprise here. Brandi is out. She was very good with Julie.

HoH Comp time - HG had the time to study works of art knowing they might be part of a comp. Sequestered in separate rooms. BB Auction. Questions on what they studied. True or False. Seven questions, point for each right. 

Tiebreaker between James and Omarosa.

OMAROSA is the new HoH! 

Live nominations -- Omarosa nominated Ross and Marissa.
Oh my. 

Live veto comp! Art-Rageous. Six paintings, a replica in each of six rooms ... one not an exact match. Incorrect, eliminated. First one right wins. 

ROSS wins the PoV! 

The Veto Meeting. Ross saves himself. Omarosa puts James on the block with Marissa. 

Live Eviction Two:
James - NO fun campaigning against Marissa. Consensus is no one can beat her in a final two. Keep me.
Marissa - Better chance of getting you to that final two!

Votes to evict:
Ari - James
Mark - Marissa
Ross - James

Buh-bye, James. He was cocky with Julie.

Sounds like they'll play an HoH before Sunday's show. Tomorrow is clips at 8pm ET/PT but the HoH will "start." (Probably not live.)  I'll let you know what happens in a feeds report tomorrow.
