BB25: HOH and Nominations Show Blog Party - Sept. 17

 

Good evening. Just to give you a heads up -- I'm not feeling well tonight. I seem to have caught some kind of bug. As a result, my live-blogging of the show won't be up to its usual self. I'm also not thrilled that the show isn't starting until 10:30PM ET, either.

My apologies in advance. Oh, and now I'm hearing 10:50PM ET for the start of the show. Sigh.

At least the show tonight is the wall comp which I did cover on the live feeds a few days ago.

We will get to see part of the blow-up between Jared and Cory the day Izzy got evicted.

But we're to the wall first. Oops, back to before the vote. Jared lies to Matt and tells him Jag said they were keeping Felicia. Cory thinks it doesn't make sense that Jag would say anything. Matt blows intel on alliances to Jared. Then Cory gets involved. There is shouting going on. Cory exposes Jared's lies to him as Jared tries to over shout him. Cory did expose Jared's lies and how he lied throwing Jag under the bus.

Back to the comp. Cirie out first in less than ten minutes. Felicia down in just under 19 minutes. America 21 minutes out. Mecole out 27 minutes. Cory 28 minutes out. Jag 35 minutes. Matt 37 minutes. Blue down 43 minutes followed by Bowie Jane. 

JARED wins the HOH! He calls his mother "bro" while hugging her. Eep.

Cameron doesn't feel as uneasy as he thinks others feel. 

Matt and Cameron's punishments are over.

Jared tells Cirie that he wants to nominate America and Cory with a backdoor plan of Cameron.

Nominations ceremony ... that's just what he does. Cory, then America are nominated.

BB25: Live Feeds Power of Veto Spoilers - Sept. 16

 

Playing for their lives.

The veto winner is at the bottom of this post. 

But, trust me, the stuff in between is good reading!

Here's what's been happening in that Big Brother House of We Gots Ourselves a Pressure Cooker Without a Pressure Cooker:

• Well, the veto picks were made this morning.
• Some of their worst nightmares came true. But, heck, the odds of people getting picked when fewer people are in the house really counts.
• Yep, Cameron was picked to play for the veto.
• Bowie Jane was a random draw by Jared (who would pick her anyway?) and Cory got Houseguest Choice, choosing Jag. Then America drew a chip -- Jag. She had to redraw and randomly picked Cameron. Matt will host.
• Oh my, that kind of throws a wrench into the works, doesn't it? She had told Jag before that the only chip she didn't want to pull was Cameron.
• Cameron told America if he wins, he will take her off the block.
• He also told her to throw the comp to him. Yeah, like she will do that with her game on the line!
• His plan is to then push for a Jag renom and work on everyone to get Jag out. After all, Jag was ALREADY voted out.
• Cam knows that America doesn't want to lose Cory and he thinks Cory stands a chance to stay against Jag. 
• Then they can work together! Like that will happen. America will cut him the first chance she gets!
• Then there was the big Cirie/Jared talk. It came about because Blue put a bug in her ear (not literally, mind you) that since Izzy was gone people were talking about how close she (Cirie) is with Jared.
• Cirie told Jared, for the good of his game, if Cameron wins and takes down America, put her (Cirie) up and she will go home.
• She thinks it would save his game to show that he is not attached to her.
• What she doesn't realize is that she sees her little boy with rose-colored glasses. Maybe it's those sunglasses she wears all the time.
• Jared has as many people after him as there are after Cameron.
• Both are obnoxious and arrogant plus they keep winning comps! Of course, people want BOTH of them out!
• Cirie thinks that Jared could team up with Blue, Matt and perhaps Jag or Cory.
• She made the offer to save his game, a game already sunk by the first chance they get to evict him whether she's there or not. She said it's purely a game move and nobody (like us) could say anything about it because she volunteered.
• Um, no. Blue has already said that if she wins HOH she will be nominating Jared. 
• Neither Matt nor Jag have any love for him.
• Cirie tried Cirie-misting Jared about it, but he did tell her no.
• Although later he told Blue (who knows she's his mother) that he was considering it.
• Supposedly Jared has a deal for safety with Cameron if Cameron doesn't go up as a nom or a renom in the next HOH since he can't play for it.
• But it's Big Brother. A nod is as good as a wink to a blind horse and the entire game is just a big spool of lies!
• They still aren't even thinking that this week is a double eviction. They are too busy worrying about the veto comp.
• Jared made it apparent to Bowie Jane that he doesn't think she will win. No, he didn't come out and say it to her -- he just kept telling her how he HAS to win and Cameron CANNOT win.
• What if she wins?
• She would probably go by Jared's wishes. She just wants to last in the house until jury.
• Jag has agreed to Jared he would take America down if he wins.
• Before the veto picks, yet another new "alliance" or, at least an agreement, was made. Matt, Cirie, Jag, Jared, Blue and Felicia all agreed that what's said between them stays between them. They call it "This Thing is Not a Thing."
• Okaaay ... but they don't realize that Matt, Jag and Blue aren't really "with" the others, per se. And, what's said between them is certainly not shared with Jared, Felicia or Cirie!
• I should make a point that this is the busiest feeds season I've seen in years. Like the casting or not, some strategy, alliance (fake or real) or scheming is going on.
• The feeds got blocked around 2:30PM ET for the veto comp.
• I'm just going to wait for the theme music to stop, see who won and then get this posted.
• It could be a long wait. I don't have to watch the adoptable animals, though. I minimize the feeds on my computer with the loud theme music turned way down and do other stuff. 
• I need to catch up on my Only Murders in the Building. If I hear the music in the background stop and voices, I'll flash on back to the live feeds to see the winner and get a screen cap.
• Feeds have now been down almost four hours as I type this. Rumor on the street -- okay, Twitter -- is that the comp will be OTEV. We will see. Hopefully soon.
• At almost 7PM ET, the feeds came back on.
• JAG WON THE POWER OF VETO! It was not OTEV.
• Jag won by 40 seconds, Cameron came in second, Jared third.

He has the necklace!

Jared, put me up.

Frenemies or fake friends, real enemies.

The latest new "alliance."

BB25: Live Feeds into Saturday - Sept. 16

And the cheese sits alone.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Loquacious Louts:

• Oh my. 
• It seems all this season has been nothing but a spool of lies! Spool of lies is, of course, copyrighted to Janelle Pierzina and credited mostly to Howie Gordon on BB All Stars -- 

• Since the big Cory/Jared shouting match pre-eviction show day, Cory's bridges are pretty much burned with everyone except America.
• Since that big almost brouhaha, yet more than a kerfuffle, Blue heard an awful lot about her pseudo-love Jared.
• That's why she's in tears.
• So, now she's hooking up (no, not THAT way) with Jag and Matt to work against Jared and the Cirie Machine.
• But, she wants to still pretend to be with Jared.
• Is she good enough to be a double agent? She doesn't really know the game but he ain't too bright neither.
• She is still sitting on the big secret. While Izzy would never have given it up, I can see Blue spilling it in anger or tears.
• Yes, she knows Cirie is Jared's mother, not Felicia.
• Yes, Jared told her.
• Now, Jared is worried and actually went to Cirie and told her he thinks Izzy told Blue.
• Cirie isn't dumb. People may think she's a lot of things, but dumb is not one of them. She knows it had to be Jared telling Blue.
• Can Matt and Jag actually not blab and are their acting skills good enough to convince Cirie and Jared they are working with them?
• Technically, right now with Cameron being a backdoor target, pretty much everyone in the house is working with them.
• But what happens once, if that goal is achieved this week and Jared cannot compete for HOH ... who is going to take the step to get him out in the double eviction? Which, they have no clue is coming.
• America, for sure, would take that shot at him.
• In other news, the latest final two deal in the house is Mecole and Felicia. That's cute, but they will need to step up their games when the numbers dwindle. I don't think anyone wants to be sitting next to Felicia in a final two as her age and credit for lasting that long might give her a win. Mecole, on the other hand, needs to show more leadership and spunk.
• The Brown Sugar Babes are still fairly solid as a final four pact - Jared, Cirie, Felicia and Mecole.
• But if Jared gets the boot, the others might be like fish in a barrel.
• Cameron is extremely disappointed to hear the jury will only be seven. He's been telling everyone he needs to make jury for financial reasons. It will give him even more incentive to win veto if he's picked to play. His first goal coming in was to win. It seems he's given up that dream and just wants to make jury stipend -- $1,000 a week.
• Jared kind of agreed to a deal not to nominate or renom him. But there goes that spool of lies again.
• Jared and Cory have talked. The tempers have cooled down, but the burnt bridge is barely passable.
• Now that fight happened because Cory spilled all he knew about Jared to Cameron and then to most everyone.
• The Power of Veto comp will be later today. 
• If Cameron wins the veto and saves America or Cory, whichever one remains on the block will go.
• Jared has told everyone that, if they win veto, they need to use it so Cameron can be backdoored.
• Oh. And Bowie Jane keeps bowieing around the house for a summer camp experience with the jury goal in mind.
• And, that's where we stand.
• Laters!

Cory is no Ian playing both sides.

Did she come to play the game even?

Knew she would be on the block.

More solid with Jag/Matt than Jared now.

But she will pretend.

The latest final two deal.

ADDED UPDATE: The veto players were picked -- in addition to Jared, Cory and America we have CAMERON, Jag and Bowie Jane. I'm sure Cameron was a random draw. Matt will host the comp. This should be good with Cory, America and Cameron playing like their BB house lives depend on it as well as Jared playing so Cameron doesn't win.

BB25: Live Feeds Nominations Update - Sept. 15

 

I've been a bit out of the loop today, but figured you want to know Jared's shocking nominations for eviction.

Cory and America with a backdoor plan for Cameron.

Shock and awe as Cameron would say.

BB25: Live Feeds into Friday Morning - Sept. 15

 

Cory knows he's likely to go on the block.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Mad Messes:

• As you know from my previous post, Jared is once again the HOH.
• What a hot mess that house is in!
• Y'see, in yesterday's preshow chaos, everyone was laying the blame on Jag, Jared was very arrogant with all and it was a hot mess.
• Well, it's a hotter mess today.
• Blue is in tears.
• America is trying to rally everyone to ally with her and possibly Cameron (although they are sure he will be a target, if not THE target).
• Jag is trying to get in with everyone to fight the power of both Cam and Jared.
• Nobody trusts Cirie anymore.
• Felicia learned she needs to keep her mouth shut.
• Cory is sure he will be on the block, just doesn't want to be on the block with America.
• America thinks she will be on the block.
• Cameron and Jared's bit of a bromance is shot. He knows that he will always be the biggest target when not HOH.
• Bowie Jane's goal in the house of making jury has been blown to bits.
• Cameron is even more upset that the jury will be seven, not nine. He figures he could be out next and wanted to lay about the jury house "making big money."
• They think they have to wait two more weeks to jury as they have no clue it's going to be a double eviction.
• They have had all along and still believe there will be some sort of battle back.
• Blue says if she wins HOH next week, she's putting Jared on the block.
• Jared has now succeeded in being a bigger target than his mother in the game.
• Mecole and Bowie Jane are helplessly drifting side to side between the America/Cirie factions.
• Nobody is drifting to Cameron.
• Matt has fallen out of his trust of Cirie but I'm not sure he's in with America. He and Jag are once again besties.
• Jared told Mecole and Felicia that he's thinking of putting Cory and Jag on the block with a backdoor plan of Cam.
• Yeah, that will work until Cam wins veto again!
• The Cardboard Josh and Cameron Piggy are still in effect until Saturday as they got them for the week during the veto comp.
• I believe Izzy can take the piggy suit off now. Heehee.
• Yesterday's main mess voting chaos is being blamed on Cory for telling Cameron all about everything alliance-wise.
• Cirie is being fairly quiet, hiding behind her sunglasses and apparently trying to look at the long picture, if there is one.
• I'm cutting this fairly short as today is my birthday and I gots stuff to do. Of course, anyone wanting to send me birthday gifts is welcome to do so! 😁
• Nominations will be later today.
• Laters!

Sitting pretty this week. What about next?

Brown Sugar Babes plus a Bowie Jane.

Gee, he hasn't had a letter from Mom yet.

Jared trying to mend fences.

America with a crying Blue.bb
