BB25: Live Feeds into Saturday Morning - Aug. 12

 

How is Cameron seeing Denzel Washington?


Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Adoptable Animals:
  • Cameron was telling Jared (of all people) he's sure that Felicia is Denzel Washington's sister -- the looks, the mannerisms, a dead ringer for Denzel!
  • Bwahaha! 
  • To me, her only likeness to Denzel might be skin tone. Even there, it's not a match.
  • And, he was saying this to Jared -- who actually looks so much like his mother -- and Cirie is right in the house with them!
  • Cameron did make one right observation about Cirie, though. He recognized her as being on the show Traitors. I don't watch that one. He didn't seem to know she won that show, though.
  • And Cirie didn't tell him.
  • Jag returned from his Nether Region trip and he sent Bowie Jane there.
  • Due to his time gone, he was safe from being nominated.
  • But we know from Hisam's talk with him, he was safe anyway even though Jared sent him there supposedly for his safety.
  • Apparently, the ones going there are forbidden to talk anything real about it.
  • Jag told stories of a gorgon chasing him. Yeah, right.
  • I personally think the Nether Region is a room off that hallway to the Have Not Room.
  • I could be wrong.
  • Jag seems to think there will be some sort of consequence for his safety from being nominated. Hmm.
  • Upon his return, Jag and Blue made Jag's second final two pact. He made one days ago with Reilly.
  • Jumping a sinking ship? Maybe.
  • Cirie would still rather Cameron go. Hmm ... she usually gets her way. We will see.
  • Reilly is in a spot. So far, she isn't crying as much as during her HOH reign. 
  • She feels if she wins veto, Matt will be put up in her place.
  • She doesn't seem to realize what most of us know -- if the noms become Matt and Cameron, Cameron would go.
  • Jared and Hisam talked a lot about the HOH comp. It does sound like it's going to be fun to watch tomorrow night.
  • Jared only lost right at the end when he chose the wrong door. 
  • It's just as good that he lost. An HOH win for Jared would have him showing his cards.
  • The POV comp will be held today.
  • When I know, you'll know.
  • Laters!

"Dude, I swear she's Denzel's sister!"

How I feel watching the live feeds.

Scared Matt will go if the veto is used.

Jag now has a second final two pact.

America is playing rather quietly.

BB25: Live Feeds, Nominations - Aug. 11

 

They finally have the Memory Wall

This is going to be short and maybe not so sweet. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Hamster Hisam HOH:

  • As he all but blatantly told them, Hisam nominated Reilly and Cameron for eviction.
  • He is right now telling Jared that if Reilly wins HOH, he will replace her with Matt. Cameron would be the secondary target.
  • With Cameron, Hisam told him he was thinking of putting him up as a pawn with Reilly.
  • With his Reilly interrogation -- which was some sort of mix between therapist and Wicklander-Zulawski interview techniques (which I am actually certified in but that's another story) -- Hisam pretty much told her he was going to probably nominate her.
  • He told her to win the veto and they can move forward and work together.
  • Matt promised Hisam that if he wins veto he will not use it to save Reilly.
  • And there they are.
  • In other news, the Memory Wall showed up during a feeds block. Luke isn't on it at all, Kirsten is greyed-out and Jared/Cirie are featured apart from each other.
  • Jared returned from the Nether Region and chose to save Jag from nomination by sending him there.
  • Can I rest now?

Reilly and Hisam hug after he said she's his target.

BB25: Interrogations Continue, Jared Back - Aug. 11

 


The feeds returned. It was NOT Nominations.

  • Jared returned to the house. That apparently is the big feeds block.
  • Hisam is talking to Mecole now, one of his allies.
  • Hisam has NOT interrogated ... er ... talked to Reilly yet.
  • But now Jag is gone to the Nether Region and cannot be nominated.

BB25: Live Feeds into Friday Afternoon - Aug. 11


His alliance and the show vs. his deafness ...

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Whirling Dervishes:
  • First, let me explain the caption in Matt's screencap --
  • The show made no effort to handle Matt's deafness in the Diary Room after voting last night. There is no video screen in there, only a mic. They should have set up a light to flash ... something, anything ... to let him know to leave.
  • Also production related: When Jared appeared on the screen from the Nether Region, Matt couldn't hear what he was saying. Heck, I had to replay it with my headphones full blast to hear it.
  • Then there's his own alliance. Last night they kept whispering in groups. He TOLD them he can't hear what's going on. No way can he read many lips at once in a group of five all talking at once! Did they stop? Nope. They all kept whispering at the same time.
  • What were they whispering about?
  • Well, the Handful -- Reilly, Jag, Matt, Blue and Cameron (double agent?) -- led by Reilly (again) were talking about throwing Cory and America under the bus, sacrificing their larger Family Style members to further themselves in the game.
  • They want to steer Hisam towards nominating those two but being subtle about it, not blatantly suggesting it.
  • Meanwhile, Hisam is really wanting to target Reilly as Reilly talked about putting Izzy and him on the block.
  • She even admitted it to him.
  • So, he knows for sure.
  • In other news, Izzy got all Izzied-out over Cameron telling her where to sit in the HOH room. 
  • Red said something to her about sitting and she went off on an angry crying jag -- not to be confused with BB25 Jag.
  • But, later ... after being consoled by Mecole, Hisam, Blue, Cirie and whoever else, Red went to talk to her.
  • I actually like Red a lot more after their talk. He seemed very sincere with her and I think she feels that way, too.
  • But she still hates Cameron even though Felicia told her hate is not something to feel.
  • So, she has decided to say she WANTS to hate Cameron.
  • When Reilly was talking to Matt about Cirie and Felicia and how Jared thought of them, she said, "Jared is like their son."
  • Heh.
  • Apparently, no one other than Kirsten picked up on the nickname slip by Jared. She didn't pick up on it until Julie told her mother/son.
  • While Hisam really wants Reilly out, Cirie is more mistrustful regarding Cameron.
  • When Jared appeared on the screen from the "Nether Region" he really didn't reveal much. He said they wouldn't let him sleep. Felicia asked if they fed him. It was more small talk than anything else. He said he would appear again but nothing on when he will get out or what he's actually doing there.
  • The screen later turned on to Nominations Today, putting Hisam in a rush to get his one-on-one conversations done.
  • Oh my! What one on ones he has! Direct and asking just about everything except their credit scores. He tells them what he's heard without naming names, he's getting them to expose their alliances and more.
  • Best interrogations ... er ... one on ones that I've ever seen!
  • So far, I think (although he isn't Hisam's main target), Matt is lying the most to him. And Hisam knows it. He's trying to steer Matt away from Reilly as much as possible. Hisam blatantly tells him that Reilly is the only one who has mentioned his name and she's the one he wants out. Matt says he won't tell her and that will show his trust.
  • Hisam is doing all the Family Style folks first.
  • When talking with Cameron he mentioned the possibility of putting Cameron on the block with Reilly with Reilly the target.
  • On the other hand, Cirie is giving advice to Reilly about how to handle the one on one. 
  • I can't wait for that one!
  • BB better not cut away too much when he talks to her.
  • On that cliffhanger ... laters!
Ack. No cliffhanger, the feeds switched to adoptable animals just as I was about to hit post for this. It must be nominations. Argh. I will let you know when I know.

Jared appears from the Nether Region

Izzy dizzied once again.

NO ONE is saying Mecole's name!

Red had a touching heart to heart with Izzy.

Not singing in the sunshine.

Nominations Today Hisam talks ...

BB25: Live Feeds Return, HOH - Aug. 11

 


The feeds are finally back on. Is that the HOH necklace on Hisam?

Yep.

Still getting details. They all had their luggage with them and are talking about what a fantastic comp it was.

Jared is in the Nether Region for a week? Hmm. They don't know if he will return for the Veto comp or anything. Apparently, he cannot be nominated. They said there is another place away from the house (which is where they were.) They saw Jared on a screen. I don't know ... it's all very confusing and they seem confused as well.

When Reilly mentioned the card from the "incident" yesterday, the feeds cut, then returned to a different room.

Now they have the backyard at 4:16 my time (1:16am their time).

Cirie and Izzy are talking. Cirie said Hisam was going to put up Blue and Jag, then backdoor Cameron. That could have been a previous plan. Cirie is glad that Jared didn't win HOH -- she thinks he doesn't think long haul in the game, and it isn't the right time for him. 

But Hisam is talking to Felicia saying Reilly is his number one and the other two on his list are Matt and Cameron. He is thinking Cameron and Reilly on the block with Reilly being told that she's a pawn.

Cameron and Jag are talking. Cameron thinks he, Jag, Matt and Reilly may be targeted. He thinks Cory and Jared were a bit close with the other side. Matt's lipreading seems exposed.

Hisam's HOH storage room

The HOH room isn't open yet. Hisam got photos, a goody basket and a letter from his family in the storage room. They took all the stuff upstairs and the door did indeed open. Weird.
