BB25: Luke Removed from the BB House Bulletin - Aug. 9

 

STATEMENT FROM CBS AND THE PRODUCERS: “Luke violated the BIG BROTHER code of conduct and there is zero tolerance in the house for using a racial slur. He has been removed from the house. His departure will be addressed in Thursday night’s show.”

See my last post for details on what happened.

Those who have Luke in the blog pool will be reassigned to a new hamster. Right now, the house is in adoptable animals mode probably telling the others that he's gone.

BB25: Live Feeds Overnight into Wednesday - Aug. 9

 

Luke did NOT say that word, did he?

Here's what's been happening in the overnight hours inside that Big Brother House of Nasty Narwhals:

• Okay, we have what will probably be the first TMZ mention of the season.
• I am going to go out of order here, bear with me.
• Luke said the n-word while in the room with Hisam, Cory and Jared.
• He tried to correct it to "dude" and the feeds quickly went to the Nether Region colonoscopy screen.
• Hisam and Cory were shocked and pretty much immediately left the room.
• He used the word as an expression, not really targeting. But that's something white people cannot and should not do. I personally don't like hearing it when black people are referring to each other.
• How did Jared react?
• Very graciously. 
• As Luke apologized over and over again, even to the point of saying that he meant to say "narwhal," Jared told him not to worry.
• Jared told him that white people (like Cory and Hisam) get more offended over that kind of mention than black people.
• All does seem good with Jared about it ... but the others and the internet might hold a different position.
• Hisam came back in and seemed over it. 
• Both Hisam and Jared advised Luke to really watch himself, but they did it friendly-like.
• In other bad news, Cameron continues to browbeat and gaslight Reilly.
• He has told her he thinks of her as a daughter.
• He has twice told her that that if they weren't on television, he would hit her.
• It's like watching a wannabe David Koresh get his start. (If you don't know who that was, look it up.)
• He has broken Reilly.
• And Kirsten is broken as well.
• Cory wants to throw a sympathy vote for Kirsten.
• Everyone feels sorry for her.
• But ... Jared has a good point. It's a game and she did it to herself.
• She thinks (and could be right) that she will be going to the Nether Region and may have a chance to return.
• Mama Cirie is understanding and consoling to both Reilly and Kirsten.
• She even told Hisam they need to offer her consolation and understanding.
• Cirie told him it's the right thing to do; it goes beyond the game.
• Of course, she will vote out Kirsten in a heartbeat.
• But Kirsten will leave with only love in her heart for Cirie.
• In other news, Jag took off his turban for the evening and the Have Nots were able to feast at midnight their time.
• That's the interesting stuff in a large nutshell.
• Laters!

This game changes people.

All fun and games until ...

Jag shows up to the party without his turban.

Cameron is toxic for Reilly! Get him away!

She's going to break!

BB25: Live Feeds into Tuesday Evening - Aug. 8

Dreaming of 750K in the hammock.

 Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Hospitable Hamsters:

• Tuesdays, like Sundays, are pretty much a nothing day.
• The hamsters have the yard, no comps are scheduled and the Veto meeting is history.
• Historically, this is a day of heavy campaigning by the nominees.
• Not so much today.
• Felicia has been guaranteed by all that she's safe.
• Kirsten has noticed that and, while she wants to campaign for herself to stay, knows that campaigning against Felicia would not be a good way to go about it.
• She plans to tell the others in her speech that if they are on the block with Felicia it means they are the target and going home.
• So, we need other hamsters for the drama.
• Hmm.
• Reilly! Cameron! Izzy! Cory! And sometimes Blue!
• Perfect!
• Reilly has been crying to just about everyone. Whatever will she do if she wins HOH and has to make her own nominees?
• Her latest is that she is seen as a ringleader even though we know it was her pushing the most for a big alliance?
• It was hilarious to watch Cirie console her and walk away with Reilly absolutely loving her.
• Such a Cirie thing to do.
• I guess no one, including super Survivor fan Cory, remember that that is Cirie's own form of mist -- friendship, trust and understanding.
• We couldn't see the wheels in motion so much on Survivor, but it's so fun to watch it on the feeds now!
• Jared has been calling Ma Felicia and Ma Cirie by such and no one other than Izzy knows the secret.
• Then there's Cameron. He wants to jump ship from Reilly's alliance (Family Style) and get aboard Cirie's alliance (The Professors).
• Izzy thinks he's a snake.
• And, he is.
• But he's a snake no one in either alliance is as trusting of now.
• The way he Cameron-splains the game to Reilly is so annoying. 
• The others just kind of let it go in one ear and out the other.
• Let's talk Excitable Girl Izzy.
• She also thinks Red is a snake.
• She thinks that she's Cirie's right hand gal. I think Cirie will have no issue cutting her when the time is right. The only pesky thing about that is that Izzy knows the secret.
• But if Izzy keeps getting antsy it won't be long before someone nominates her.
• Then Cirie will be her best friend until she isn't.
• Y'see, Cirie doesn't need to win a comp to play the game.
• Cory is STILL trying to get in on Cirie's circle of buddies.
• How long will it be until he tells Cirie his brother was on Survivor? He already told Reilly.
• He talks too much.
• Then comes Blue. She is dropping dimes on Jared without thinking it through.
• Jared has really created a Cirie-type bond with Reilly. Things Blue has said about him just don't sit right with her.
• The Professors -- Cirie, Felicia, Izzy, Hisam, Bowie, Jared, Red, Mecole -- don't keep all in the loop about Jared. And, they have a bit of a growing mistrust of Red because he seems to be getting too close to Cameron.
• Meanwhile, Family Style is slowly imploding as Cameron and Cody want to jump ship, Blue is saying questionable stuff and we know Jared is a double agent.
• On a funny note, Cirie was trying to take off her fake nails with a nail clipper and actual shards (as Jared called them) were flying. Jared called for BB to tell her to STOP THAT.
• BB did so.
• Laters!

Sorry, but she does look older than 34!

Mecole is playing very well.

Hisam's game knowledge will get him targeted.

Does no one realize Cirie is ALWAYS your friend?

Mad Dog Jared! Ok, toothpaste.

Next out?

BB25: Live Feeds into Monday Evening, Veto Meeting - Aug. 7

 

The Odd Couple

Good evening. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Allied Anteaters:

• Yeah, I have ants on my mind. I'm waiting for the BB ants to show up with an actual exterminator in the house!
• No, I didn't post right after the end of the veto meeting feeds cut.
• I figured the entire world knew what would happen.
• Of course, Hisam didn't use the veto.
• No one wanted him to ... well, except Kirsten. And even she knew it wouldn't happen.
• The names of the two big sides of the house have changed.
• The Reilly group is now Family Style but still includes The Handful and such.
• The older group, now instead of Bye Bye Bitches, is The Professors.
• They're going to take Family Style to school!
• Luke suddenly awakened and realized he should be playing the game.
• He started talking to everyone like he was the HOH about to make a decision!
• Jared continues to double agent fairly well.
• The Handful doesn't have him in with the others at all.
• As a matter of fact, The Handful still doesn't realize the other side is solidified and organized.
• Hisam continues counting and memorizing.
• Felicia, Izzy and Cirie memorized stuff in the Have Not Room today.
• I don't expect much action until the eviction is over.
• They all still talk too much and too many at one time!

She's laying low for now.

We don't see much of Bowie Jane.

Mecole's got them cheap sunglasses.

Everybody else already started playing?

BB25: Live Feeds into Monday Morning - Aug. 7

 

Cory: How do you use an ice cube tray?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of How Dumb Can Cory Play? --

• Cory may be playing the dumb act just a bit too much. He goes on about how he's a wee little lad lost in the world.
• Yes, he really told Red that.
• Hisam is so onto him.
• Cory knows Hisam is onto him but what can he do about it?
• Felicia killed another mic. 
• One was the toilet (I think they have a bidet in there as well this year), then falling in the hot tub, now the toilet again.
• Now her mic is wrapped in plastic!
• They had the HOH camera yesterday in addition to having the photo shoot by the show.
• Izzy is still the Energizer Bunny hopping all over the place. 
• Cirie told her that she needs to calm down.
• Izzy cried. Izzy laughed. Izzy made me dizzy.
• Hisam seems to be one of the most shrewd players on the show.
• He's already memorizing details of the house.
• While Cory was just "brought in" to the Cirie alliance (BBB), he's also targeted for eviction by both Hisam and Izzy.
• Meanwhile, Cory is head over heels happy that Cirie likes and trusts him.
• Heh. That's what Cirie does and he should know that!
• Red, like a few before him, laid out Reilly's alliance (The Handful) directly to Reilly.
• Oh, my.
• Reilly came to the realization that people can see and hear!
• She went on a crying jag to Jag. Oh, and Matt.
• She told them she is being bombarded by all, hasn't had a chance to listen to her music.
• Hey, there is no rule HOH HAS to stay in the HOH Room 24/7.
• It looks like the plan remains the same -- Hisam will not use the Veto today and Felicia/Kirsten remain on the block.
• Kirsten will probably try to befriend everyone more but has said she doesn't want to campaign against Felicia.
• And the beat goes on ...

Red lists Reilly's alliance to her.

They want to target each other.

Hisam adds a lot to the team.

Thankfully he has swim shorts on.

Killer ... of microphones.
