BB23: Live Feeds into Sunday Morning - August 1

Julie is finally pronouncing Azah's name right!

Here is the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Antsy Aardvarks:

• For those who missed the update -- Christian won the Power of Veto and is almost certainly going to keep the nominations the same ... Hannah and Whitney.
• Whitney remains the target.
• Hannah remains acting confused as to why she's on the block and trusting that she is indeed just a pawn to guarantee Whitney's eviction.
• Whitney has returned to hanging all over Xavier -- applying lotion, giving massages to him and generally rubbing the dude pretty much all over.
• Her behavior is reminding me of Christine with Cody in BB16 although a saving grace is that Whitney is at least single. But she has two children at home. Sigh.
• However, her behavior gave Tiffany and Azah fodder for a fun-filled discussion (not fun if your name is Whitney, mind you!) and lengthy imitations. 
• No, Tiffany and Azah ... you're not being petty. If you are, then I'm petty too.
• During their talk it seems that both Azah and Tiffany are regretting committing to the Cookout, at least a little bit. Both said they really like Derek X and Christian and don't want either to leave any time soon.
• I say "the heck with the Cookout" and keep those you WANT to be with in the house!
• Azah thinks that SarahBeth is acting dumb but really knows the game well. She's right, of course. Tiffany tried to steer her into getting closer to SarahBeth.
• Meanwhile, up in the HOH room Derek X was talking with Alyssa. He thinks people are trying to get him and Christian working against each other when he would like to work with Christian.
• Alyssa proposed yet another new alliance -- her, Christian, Derek X and Hannah.
• Christian seems okay with it but still wants their final four with Tiffany and Claire.
• I swear there are more alliances than there are houseguests this season!
• They got the backyard late last night.
• Derek F is still cantankerous about his slop.
• Poor baby.

Has become everybody's confidant and advisor

Derek X has made friends and influenced people

Derek F thinks he's made friends and is now annoying people

He is going to be seen as a threat needing to go before long

Tiff and Azah cracking up imitating Whitney

This is what they were imitating (see arrow)

Alyssa thinks she's QOH - Queen of Household

Is Xavier swayed by Whitney hanging all over him?

They got the yard back last night

 

BB23: Live Feeds Power of Veto Spoiler - July 31

 

Don't they look so comfy?

Well, today is the big Power of Veto comp leading into either doldrums with no comps until Thursday or a scramble for or against veto use until the veto meeting on Monday, then doldrums or campaigning.

The veto players, in addition to Christian, Hannah and Whitney are: Derek X, Claire and Azah. I don't know who drew whose name or if a houseguest choice chip was used. They block the feeds for the draw and I didn't hear them mention it.

I do know that Derek X does NOT want to win this one. If he were to win he'd be between a rock and a hard place on use. He's close with Hannah while Whitney is his team captain. They're both on his team. Plus he'd be on the outs with Christian/Alyssa and the house at large if the noms were to change. And, if Britini went up as a renom ... OY!

Derek X and Azah told each other that they plan to do whatever Christian wants if they win the veto. Yesterday Hannah told Christian she would trust that Whitney is the target and not save herself if she wins. But, although probably true, she'd be pretty foolish not to save herself. Keyword: Marcellas.

The feeds have been blocked for the comp. I'm just waiting them out so I can post the winner when they return.

CHRISTIAN WON THE POWER OF VETO

BB23: Live Feeds into Saturday Morning - July 31

 

Oh my. Did Audrey visit the house?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Shady Sharks:

• Just to note -- that's Claire in the screen cap at the top here, not Audrey. 
• Just in case, y'know. I don't want rumors spreading all over the interwebs that Audrey made an appearance.
• Hmm. Perhaps it's the GHOST of Audrey?!?!
• For those who haven't been paying attention -- Audrey Claire won the Wild Card and has two weeks of safety which guarantees her jury at the very least and Alyssa Christian nominated Whitney and Hannah for eviction.
• Whitney is the target.
• Although it wasn't actually said before nominations, Hannah had a pretty good idea she would be going up as a pawn.
• She was fully informed after the nominations and told to act sad and all.
• Okay.
• To her credit, she did cover her bases well with Whitney playing the "I don't know why he came up with us" card and saying it was because they were the only ones who didn't lie to him on the one to one two meetings before nominations.
• His solo meetings with them were a hot mess indeed. "I don't know what I'm doing," he said.
• And, he doesn't. Hopefully his parents will continue to shelter him well into his forties.
• It looks like, if the veto is used, Britini would be the replacement nomination. Oy!
• Hannah has been told they need the noms to remain the same.
• Will she throw the veto comp? Will she not save herself with the veto if she wins it?
• Hmm.
• She was told that whatever happens, Whitney CANNOT win the veto comp.
• Hmm.
• Although the week is still early, Alyssa at least isn't canoodling so much with Christian and is returning to her own bed at night. She says her parents may be watching. We'll see how long that lasts. It isn't preventing the random make-out sessions under covers.
• Derek F on slop is pretty much what we would expect.
• He shovels down bowls of the stuff and eats olives by the jar yet complains he's still hungry.
• Even with all the drama, the hamsters still get together for group skits, improv and games every evening.
• Last night's Big Blue Couch show featured singing by individuals and groups ... all original songs due to copyright issues, skits and interviews. I have to give this group credit for creating their own entertainment each evening and for playing together as a group despite the inherent nastiness of playing the game of Big Brother.
• Mind you, Alyssa and Christian chose the time to snuggle away from the masses while the Big Blue Couch Show was going down.
• Oh my. Alyssa ended up in the HOH room last night despite her protests that she "doesn't do sexy."
• A lot will depend on the veto comp today.
• If Whitney per chance wins it, we can expect some excitement!

Although very present, isn't on the radar of most.

Just a pair of Dereks

Board meeting in progress

I don't want to make decisions!

I don't want to be on the block!

BB23: Live Feeds Nominations Spoiler - July 30

Nominations are in.

So, you wonder ... who did Alyssa nominate?

Oh. I meant Christian.

Sorry about that.

It's Whitney and Hannah on the block and Whitney is the major target.

 

BB23: Live Feeds Wild Card Spoiler - July 30

 

The live feeds were blocked forever and a day this morning. Okay, I exaggerate, but ...!

When they came back on, there was talk going on.

Claire was talking about being confirmed to be at least on the jury. So, she won and accepted the two weeks of safety!
