Late last night the "Big Brother" houseguests competed in the annual Morph-O-Matic PoV competition. Each contestant had to identify two evicted houseguest's faces that were morphed together. Michele was able to complete the challenge the fastest and won PoV & a 55" LCD TV and Blu-Ray player. Unsurprisingly, she removed herself from the block and HoH Kevin replaced her with Jordan. Now Jeff & Jordan sit next to each other on the block, and one of them will be going home on Thursday. I'll report on the eviction and the new HoH right after the live show airs on the east coast!
On yesterday's live "Big Brother 11" eviction show Russell was voted out and became the third member of the jury. He was evicted unanimously in a 3-0 vote. After he was booted, the houseguests started an HoH comp that consisted of running back and forth & filling up a 16 gallon bowl. The contest continued on the feeds and an hour after it began Kevin won hands down. Today, during the nomination ceremony Kevin put Jeff and Michele on the block. Also today the houseguests collected money that fell from the sky when Kevin opened Pandora's Box. Tonight there will be a late night PoV comp and when the results come in you'll find it here!
"More to Love" just ended and Luke said goodbye to Kristian and fan favorite Heather. The episode began with a two on one date where Luke took Kristian and Mandy salsa dancing. Mandy continued to have a hard time dealing with Luke dating multiple women. Later, Luke gave Malissa a one on one date which had the pair taking a helicopter ride to a vineyard. Luke and Malissa continued to form a connection, which unsurprisingly made the other girls jealous. The next day Luke took Tali, Heather and Anna to the beach where Tali & Anna's relationship with Luke grew, but Heather's waned. At the elimination Kristian told Luke she loved him and Tali expressed concern about her and Luke's connection. In the end, Luke decided to eliminate Kristian and Heather which probably shocked the fans as much as the women themselves.
Jeff's plan to backdoor Russell went into effect today, when Jeff used the veto on Kevin and put Russell on the block. On Saturday Jeff won the PoV and he now holds all the power. Earlier today he decided to follow through on his plan to backdoor Russell. After putting him on the block Russell went berserk and yelled at Jeff for a half hour. Now Jordan, Michele and Kevin will be voting on Thursday and unless something crazy happens Russell is good as gone. We'll find out for sure on Thursday night.
On yesterday's live "Big Brother" episode Lydia was evicted and became the second member of the jury. The show started with the PoV competition, which was Before or After. It came down to Michele and Jordan in the tiebreaker question and Jordan emerged victorious. During the veto meeting Jordan decided not to change her nominations, so the voting began. Jeff, Michele and Russell voted out Lydia, while Kevin voted out Natalie. After Lydia's eviction the houseguests competed in the HoH comp, which consisted of dropping cans into clear plastic tubes. When the episode ended Michele and Kevin were tied with four cans each. More than a half hour later the feeds clicked on and the competition was over. Jeff made a come from behind victory and was the new HoH! Also in the comp, Russell and Michele were made Have-Nots. Today, Jeff nominated Kevin and Natalie for eviction but his ultimate plan is to backdoor Russell. If he succeeds, what will Russell do? We'll find out after PoV!
On yesterday's "More to Love" Luke Conley picked his "sexy 6" and sent home Lauren and Mel B. The episode began with the remaining eight women judging each other on whether they would be a good wife or a bad wife. Heather got the most good votes, while Mel B got the most bad votes. Both women were then awarded one on one dates with Luke. First up was Mel's date, where Luke took her to a Moroccan restaurant. Then it was time for Heather's date, where they went to a medieval castle. There, Luke asked her about children and Heather didn't really have any answers. Finally, it was time for the group date. Luke took six women to a spa and got some private time with Malissa A, Tali, Mandy and Anna. Later that night, at the elimination ceremony Luke said goodbye to Lauren and Mel B.
The "Big Brother" house is now a little quieter because late Friday night Chima Simone was expelled from the game. After numerous rule violations, including throwing her mic into the hot tub the producers had no choice but to kick her out of the house. Since one of Michele's nominees was gone, it was time for a new HoH! The competition was miniature golf and the houseguests could earn prizes too. Natalie got a phone call from home, Russell got a spa treatment, Jeff got a Hawaiian vacation, Kevin got $5,000, Lydia got the red unitard and Jordan got the best prize of all - HoH! Today was the nomination ceremony and unsurprisingly Jordan nominated Lydia and Natalie. The PoV and eviction will both be live on Thursday so anything can still happen!
On yesterday's "Big Brother" eviction show Jeff's use of the Coup d'Etat meant a quick eviction for Jessie. Right before the houseguests were to vote out either Russell or Lydia, Jeff used his mystery power - the Coup d'Etat - and removed both nominees from the block. He replaced them with Jessie and Natalie and the voting commenced. Jordan, Kevin and Michele voted out Jessie while Russell and Lydia voted out Natalie. After Jessie's eviction the houseguests competed in the HoH competition and Michele took the prize. Earlier today, she nominated Chima and Natalie for eviction.
"American Idol"s ninth season auditions have just started, but one judge will be noticeably absent from the show. Paula Abdul has decided to leave the show after months of salary disputes. Reportedly, Paula was asking for a raise from her $3.5 million a year to $10 million a year, the same as Ryan Seacrest's new salary. FOX only offered her $5 million a year "take it or leave it". With Kara signed on to stay, "Idol" will fill Paula's spot with rotating guest judges like Katy Perry, Mary J. Blige, Shania Twain and Victoria Beckham. A new permanent judge may be added after the audition rounds. One thing's for sure, although the show will go on "Idol" will not be the same without Paula.
On Thursday's live "Big Brother" eviction show Ronnie became the fourth person voted out of the house. It was a 4-3 vote with Jeff, Jordan, Michele & Kevin voting out Ronnie and Jessie, Natalie & Chima voting out Lydia. After the eviction the houseguests competed in a True/False HoH competition which Chima won. The next day Chima nominated Russell and Lydia for eviction, hoping Russell would be the one to go. On Saturday Kevin won the egg themed PoV comp, but decided not to use the power, leaving Chima's nominees intact. However, Jeff still has the Coup d'Etat and he will most likely use it and take down Russell & Lydia. We'll find out very soon!
On Saturday the "Big Brother" houseguests competed in the Veto competition and for the second week in a row Michele won. In the contestant selection Kevin, Jessie and Michele were picked to play with Russell, Ronnie and Lydia. In the competition it came down to Russell and Michele, with Michele taking the prize. Later in the day Michele approached Jeff about forming an alliance and Jeff seemed receptive. Today during the Veto meeting, Michele didn't use her power thus leaving Ronnie and Lydia on the block. Most likely Jeff, Jordan, Kevin and Michele will vote to evict Ronnie on Thursday, sending him home. But nothing's final until Julie makes it official on eviction night!
