PBB DOUBLE UP Day 118 (Live Eviction Night, Kuya’s Darlings’ Exit,Another Big Twist)

Posted in Big Brother, Big Brother 3 Philippines, Carlex's Blog on January 30th, 2010 by carlex rol

FEBRUARY 13 is the Big NIGHT!!

well, before anything else, i would like to say that i would be absent for posting posts for day 119 – 121 i think, for i will have my midterm exams. i’ll be back on posting on friday night.

talking about tonight’s episode,  it was all about the live eviction and Kuya’s darlings’ exit. and a big twist that will be on the history of PBB.

first, lets talk about the Kuya’s Darling. (Big Brother’s House Players)

for their last and final task, they have to find then hide all the important things of the housemates in a span of three hours.  when the count down started, the house players did not hesitate to do their task. they hide all the necessary things and sentimental gifts they found on the bedrooms of the housemates. after an hour, they’ve finished it, resulting to the puzzlement of the housemates. after the day, the housemates were talking in the garden, discussing about the missing of their important things. Mariel theorized that those three ex housemates were the reasons behind the incident.

Because they were able to pass their final task, Kuya asked them to tell the other housemates about the truth on their stay on the BB house. but Kuya aslo instructed them not to be mean on revealing the truth. so they decided to put it on a play. First, Rica made up the story of her going out via a voluntary exit because she didn’t want to miss the upcoming birthday celebration of her boyfriend. This kind of worked but what triggered the downfall of their playing pretend was when Princess and Yuri hooked up in a big fight scene by the swimming pool in front of the other housemates, wherein the former pushed the latter into the cold water. This stunned the housemates but at the same time made them ponder on the authenticity of the actions made by the three. “Lalabas na nga si Rica eh, bakit pa sila gagawa ng eksenang ganyan? (Rica’s going out already, why did they need to make that whole scene up?)” Paul Jake pointed out. Hence, the admission.

To sum things up, Big Brother gave the Kuya’s Darlings a two-thumbs up for a “job well done.” Oh, yes, the three aced the very hard-to-do tasks he gave them. They helped in revealing more of the housemates’ truest emotions and characters. This reflected when Big Brother also talked to them in a separate meeting, wherein Melai spoke in behalf of the group by expressing how much she had learned from all the challenges they underwent. “It’s the matter of how I take it. Lahat naman tayo nadadapa, nasa pagbangon at paglaban na lang yan (It’s the matter of how I take it. All of us stumble, we just have to stand again and fight),” she reiterated.

as a prize, aside from the money from the Resback Attack Team and twist, they also received an additional of 30,000 pesos and one laptop each. it was awarded on their exit and the public warmly welcomed them as they cheered for their names.

this picture shows how people loved the Kuya’s Darling for a job well done!.

well..aside from it, what is exciting about tonight’s episode is the announcement of the Big Twist and the latest evictee from the nominees’ list (Paul Jake, Johan, Kath, Jayson, Melai)

as what the housemates know, Char Char change is still in and housemates believed that they will still choose the evictee. as toni (the host) announces the saved housemates from evictions, she announced Paul Jake to be the first one.secondly was Jayson, (making me a bit comfortable for he is one of my bet.) thirdly was Melai (that made me to shout for JOY!!She’s my bet for the win!). and because Melai is saved, she is now part of the Big 4. Lastly was Johan leaving Mommy Kath to be the latest evictee.

Kath, who came from an initially rocky marriage, entered the house with the given secret task of pretending to be another house mate’s (Patrick) wife instead of his own real husband’s (Jimson). This was to help her move on and apply what she had experienced from it and somehow show it to her husband. During that task, she managed to show the capacity of being able to complete the task even with the prejudgment of her being weak and too emotional.

But as her stay stretched longer inside the house, Mommy Kath appeared to improve the strength of her inner person. She had learned to catch and stop her self whenever she’s about to get too teary-eyed. Her effort in reaching out to the other housemates, like talking to German special guest housemate Annina with her best grasp of the English language, gradually became noticeable. As she said in her message right after being evicted, it was true that her stay inside the house has helped her become a stronger person.

Here’s the result of the final votes tally:

S – save votes (+)    E – evict votes (-)   T – total votes

MELAI or MELISSA    S   + 24.73  E   – 3.92     T   (+) 20.81

JASON                              S    +22.56   E   -3.97      T  (+) 18.59

PAUL JAKE                    S      +20.57  E  -2.67      T (+) 17.90

JOHAN                              S      +10.87  E  -3.48       T (+)7.39

KATH                                S        +3.43     E  -3.81        T  (-)0.38

as you can see, least save votes was Kath and 2nd to the greatest evict votes was her too. for me, i was expecting it, but i truly hoped that it will be Johan.

the result of the fake eviction tally (from Char Char Change) was revealed also.these were the results.

HOUSEMATE                     NOMINATED HOUSEMATE VOTED

TIBO (HoH)                               Jayson

MARIEL                                      Jayson

PAUL JAKE                               Johan

JAYSON                                      Paul Jake

JOHAN                                         Paul Jake

KATH                                          Paul Jake

MELAI                                           Paul Jake

Final Tally,

KATH & MELAI = 0 point

JOHAN = 1 point

JAYSON = 2 points

PAUL JAKE = 4 points

as you can see..if the votes were for real, Paul Jake was evicted, but again, it was all part of Kuya’s Test of characters.

the big twist that was revealed in about the big night. it was formally announced that in the Chinese New Year and Valentines Day, the big winner will be hailed. On february 13, public will declare the latest BIG WINNER. it was entitled BIG DATE AT THE BIG NIGHT!

the finals will be held on NINOY AQUINO STADIUM.

the twist is, it is no more BIG 4! Now its BIG 5!!

yes! traditionally, PBB only let the final 4 (dubbed as the Big 4) to have the chance to be a Big Winner and will be brought at the big night. but since this was the longest season ever of PBB, Big Brother decided to make it BIG 5. Who will join Melai(since she won on the BIG JUMP TO THE BIG NIGHT) on the list? and who will be this season’s BIG WINNER!!

Stay tuned for the final 2 weeks of PINOY BIG BROTHER DOUBLE UP!

that’s for today, thanks for reading!

comments are so much appreciated.

Posted in Authors, Big Brother, Celeb Big Brother 7 UK, JohnBigOz's Blog on January 29th, 2010 by JohnBigOz

So, I gotta say it, I am SO dissapointed at this! Why HIM! He did NOTHING, he was total BORE! (I mean, he had no personality, and I know Rachel was boring but atleast she was NICE and KIND, unlike Alex who did NOTHING!)

Yes, Alex became the final winner of CBB and I gotta admit I wanted to turn off after Vinnie’s interview, (who came 3rd) I mean c’mon! Stephanie and Jonas were MUCH better than Dane, Alex AND Vinnie.

Ugh, I am going to make this short

Here are the finishes

in 5th place was Stephanie

in 4th place was Jonas

in 3rd place was Vinnie

Runner-Up was Dane

Winner was Alex

Ugh, so pissed of to be honest, I even want to say it was “rigged”. ugh! What did he done to get all of chavs adorment!?

Anyway, I gotta admit the series was awesome, task were awesome, and housemates were awesome, great series, shame it’s going to end.

So, thanks to the World of Big Brother Blog for allowing me to share my thoughts on this series, thanks to all my readers… goodbye….

I might consider doing the summer, but I ain’t sure :) . See you

JohnBigOz’s Views on CBB7UK – The Finale Pre-Show Thoughts

Posted in Authors, Big Brother, Celeb Big Brother 7 UK, JohnBigOz's Blog on January 29th, 2010 by JohnBigOz

After 27 days in confiment, 12 housemates have entered the house and 7 have been evicted, but now, only 5 remain, with one of them becoming the FINAL Celebrity Big Brother winner, who will be crowned? Alex? Dane? Jonas? Stephanie? or Vinnie? Who will join names like Jack Dee? Mark Owen? Bez? Chantelle Houghton? Shilpa Sheety? Ulrika Jonsson? Almost 70 Celebrities have entered the house, who spent in total over 134 days in confiment, with no contact with their P.As, fans, facebooks, phones, families, or the whole outside world! After so many days there were great moments, memorable moments, and convertersial moments, great housemates, boring housemates, suprises, twist, all of it, twist like the Jackie Stallone entrance, Chantelle’s fake celebrity status, and the famous Race Row contoversy?

Here are my final thoughts on the series :

The series was great, though sometimes boring, it was great, tasks were great, housemates were great, even the DR and house were great! But everything has to come to an end sooner or later, my favourite task was probably Tree of Temptation, though some of the task were bit boring, the concept was awesome, my favourite housemate is Stephanie/Stephen/Heidi/Nicola tied, and, my favourite twist was Davina coming as a chick. I mean the season was great!

Here are the FINAL ratings for ALL the housemates and some thoughts about them

1. Stephanie

Great person, the fact that she isn’t “smart-ass old grandma” made me love her, she had great sense of humour and never got annoyed about Big BRother pranks (though she did get annoyed over Jonas’ anal humour)

2. Nicola

The fact that she broke the DUMB, VEIN, GOLDIGGING, BITCH, model stereotype, made me love her aswell, she was kind, funny, and family-loving, which made me one of my favourites.

3. Stephen

Though become hated him (because of his preaching) his eccentric ways made me fascinated by him, though I can’t understand why people did not see that in him

4. Heidi

Her open-mouth, and the fact she wasn’t afraid to say what she thinks, made me like her a lot, though evicted in second, she will be one of my early favourites for-ever, until I forget about her, haha!

5. Jonas

At the beginning there was something charming about him, and the fact he had great sense of humour was a great trait for him, though not my top favourite, I hope to see him in Top 3 if not in Top 2 (against Stephanie)

6. Ivana

Even though she irritated by at first, I loved her after she survived the eviction, as if something a mircale, though she did not made it in my top 3, she will still make me laugh some time

7. Lady Sov

I liked her in the beginning but when it was near the first eviction, she started to get grumpy and annoying, and especially after she took the key it pissed me off.

8. Sisqo

I actually forogt about him until I got on Katia, anyway, he suprised me as he wasn’t “Da Hoodz Gui Ya know homie!?” It made me like him as he was funny, and he was quite sexy we gotta admit that.

9. Dane

Though not my top favourite, the only thing i liked was his secret Nightmare Task. That was awesome

10. Katia

I didn’t really like Katia, she was boring, and she was the new Noirin of the series, she pissed me off when she broke it off with Jonas even though she knew she was probably done with her current BF anyway.

11. Alex

He never got my attention except when he was nude or sweaty after the punching bag reward (god wet-thisrts make me… ahem let’s move on)…

12. Vinnie

The only good thing about him was his “sense of humour” but other than that he pissed me off badly with his “manipulative ways”.

And that is it, 12 housemates, 7 down, 4 more to go until the winner is crowned! I’ll be back to share my thoughts on the finale :) see ya until then!

PBB DOUBLE UP DAY 115-117(House Players’ Tasks and THE BIG JUMP TO THE BIG NIGHT)

Posted in Big Brother, Big Brother 3 Philippines, Carlex's Blog on January 29th, 2010 by carlex rol

welcome back to me! lol

as the exciting happenings on PBB continues, i can’t help my self but to feel so terribly happy and nervous for the big Night!.

this post is about the day 115 – 117 of PBB.

Day 115

the first task of the houseplayers was revealed and it was Rica to the first one to do the honor. the task is to make paul jake cry (as a result of poll voting on PBB UBER). well, her tactics were quite not obvious but still she was not able to manage it well. she talked to paul jake about serious and sad moments (regarding their love ones, for paul jake, her Girlfriend). when she was about at the peak of her success, and PJ was about to cry, Melai destructed it. (of course, she has no idea of her Bestfriend’s task). while part of the “no talk and interaction” task of the two groups, Big Brother gave the housemates a free 5 minutes everyday to talk and to interact.(i think this happened three times a day, in aid for the three House players.)

because of this opportunity, the house players were able to discuss their plan and to ask advises from each other on how to do the task. but unfortunately, Mariel got a feeling about them. for every 5 minute interaction, the three houseplayers were always talking secretly that caught her attention.  the funny side of the episode was of course, because of the tandem MELASON!! (Melai and Jason).

Jason studied spanish words and songs through her mentor, mommy Kath. the words he learned are about his feelings toward Melai on which he was able to deliver it at the bedroom when they were all present. Big Brother joined the fun as he played with the housemates. (its funny when you know Big Brother is playing with you!!lol)

in addition, Team Paul jake won the chance to fight for the Big Jump to the Big Night.

Day 116

the second task for the house players was revealed. this time,it was for Princess. and guess what, her task was about to ask and make friend with Mariel!! Yes!! Mariel was her enemy in the house during the Resback Attack peak.

funny as it may seem, but it was the decision of the public!. lol. remeber, they have a big encounter during the said attack!

but i think, she was able to accomplish this task though Big Brother have not yet announced it.

talking about the losing team(for the Big Jump), each member of them must chose one housemate from the winning team(team Paul jake) to train for the next battle.

the semi finals of the Big Jump to the Big night was a bit controversy for the housemates. their battle was about telling the truth and guessing the truth! lol

this was how the game was done. each round, Big Brother will ask the housemates who among themselves said the hot comments toward the other housemates. like “who said that Mariel is a fake?” or, “who said that Melai is not a good listener”. if the housemate is correct, he will remain on his place, while if not, he will have a one step backward. if that housemate is the answer and he was not able to tell the truth, then he have to step backward twice.

the top three housemate were revealed,(winning the game) whom will compete for the final round. It was Meali, Tibo and Paul jake. (one girl VS. Boys).

Paul jake placed as the top player, he placed at no. 9, while melai and tibo were tied at place no. 8

the third task for the houseplayer was told to Yuri, gaining her first chance to do a task. Her task was a bit too hot. she must invite Johan to a bath at the Jacuzzi. (the public chose Johan) their talk was a bit sexy that i think, PBB staf was able to cut all the hot talks. lol.. many kids watch the show that’s why they did it.

well, honestly, i have no interest for them or for their task. it was about sex and what part of a girl johan likes and how do they like to be kissed?.. whatever.. lol

day 117 (the Big Jumper to the Big Night!)

well, this episode is the best episode they showed for Melai! the final battle for the biggest twist this season was held. it was an endurance game.

The three contenders for the Big 4 slot bravely faced Kuya’s endurance challenge: to stand atop a small platform in the middle of the pool for an undefined number of hours. No excuses were accepted to leave their roost. The three had to grit their teeth and hold against the call of nature, even if it was to relieve or feed themselves.

They had various strategies for keeping their post. Melai distracted herself with singing, Tibo chose minimal movement, Paul Jake massaged his frozen joints. All three tried stretching their limbs by crouching, taking care not to let other body parts touch the platform, aside from their feet. They kept warm from the sharp nip of the air by layering clothing and blankets. Nine hours after, all three were still standing strong.

The remaining housemates kept vigil over them, camping by the poolside. They kept the stories flowing and regaled their friends with jokes. Jason led the rest in an ongoing serenade. They cheered the three on and kept them going. For what or for whom did they endure such sacrifice? Paul Jake and Melai did it for themselves, their family and those who believed in them. Tibo thought nothing of himself, but offered the moment for his family.

A few minutes past the ninth hour and Kuya decided to push the housemates harder: only one leg was allowed on top of the platform! Though shifting legs was allowed, they had to focus on keeping their balance along with dealing with fatigue and natural factors.Big Brother also played a series of audio recording of their love ones.

After a few moments, Kuya granted them a minute of rest, after which his instructions got even harder. Only the best leg could be used, with no shifting allowed.

Paul Jake could feel his strength waning, and apologized minutes before he plopped into the water.

after Paul Jake was eliminated, Tibo and Melai remained strong and Big Brother pushes the game harder. after after 10 hours, Big Brother said that they should use their best leg with no shifting. as a destruction, Big Brother played a lullaby for them. But they were not destructed. it was about 12 hours after, Big Brother put another twist, that is to raise their both hands straight and must maintain the one leg standing. after two hours i think, Tibo surrender, making Melai the Big Jumper to the Big Night!. She broke down into tears as well as the other housemates. (me too!)

Melai stand on the pedestal as she is the very first housemate to be in the Big 4 automatically!. but! wait! Big Brother announced that she is still nominated for eviction this saturday, making tibo to take her place if she will be evicted. But if she will stay after tomorrow’s eviction, then she is the first housemate for the BIG 4!!

tomorrow, Toni announced that a Big Twist will occur making the housemates and public go terribly shocked!! what is it?.. my goodness!!

aside from tomorrow’s eviction, the twist will be announced.(i hope so).

that’s for today!! thanks for reading!

JohnBigOz’s view on CBB7UK – Day 25 the last CBBUK highlights show

Posted in Authors, Big Brother, Celeb Big Brother 7 UK, JohnBigOz's Blog on January 28th, 2010 by JohnBigOz

So, nothing exciting has happened, Ivana was pondering what to make for lunch.. hehe… boring I know.

At noon, Vinnie went to the garden and guess what happened, that’s right, THE TREE OF TEMPTATION (my favouirte twist). talked to him, and offered him to see the match of some two teams playing some balls game (I don’t watch sports, please do not laugh, and yes I am in a great mood today :D ) and in order to do that, he had to say to Alex that he (Vinnie) has cross-dressed and LOVED it, (which he did, though Alex thought BB made him say that), and had to get emotional during lunch, which he at first refused to, but after a threat from the tree, he agreed, and got emotional during lunch.. so yea, that’s probably it for the whole day.

And so here comes the evening, Ivana was evicted, and Nicola was evicted, and I honestly think they spent 30 minutes on highlights from the evening, as Davina entered as Nicola, though Dane, Vinnie and Alex quickly realised it was not Nicola (and someone suggested that it was Davina). So, bascially, they were trying to catch and take off her chick suit (they had a task to wear animal costumes ,and make animal noises unlessi in The Den). So, after hours of chasing after her. Big Brother gathered housemates on the sofas (or haybales in this case, during some tasks BB replaces the furniture) to remove the heads, and all housemates (except for Dicola or Navina) but after a while Davina finally removed her head and was quite welcomed, though sad that she only stayed there for few hours, Stpehanie said that she (Davina) had very masculine hands with long nails.

So that’s probably about it, here are the ratings for today

1. Stephanie

2. Jonas

3. Dane

4. Vinnie

5. Alex

AI9 – Auditions: Dallas, TX

Posted in American Idol 9 USA, Authors, Dan's Blog, Idol on January 28th, 2010 by Dan

This sixth episode of American Idol took place in Dallas, TX, where the special guests were, first, Neil Patrick Harris, a Broadway star, now an actor on How I Met Your Mother, and Joe Jonas, a musician from the hugely popular band the Jonas Brothers, obsessed over by mostly preteen girls. I thought this was the end of the suditiones, but apparently, there is one more, so I’ll have a top twelve hopefuls list up next week.

Julie Kevelighen – She was the first hopeful to audition for Dallas. She was someone who auditioned in season one, and is now back to try for season nine. When she sang, I thought she tried to sing like Broadway, but must have failed. Neil says it wasn’t good and Simon says it, or the singing, the make up, the appearance, is all wrong. When the judges said no, she refused to leave, and continued singing, only to end up escorted out by security.

Lloyd Thomas – A guy who started dancing with Robot moves. He complains about hating his job, and says he grew up in the projects. When he sang, he sang okay, better than I expected. Kara tells him that American Idol is the type of show that could really change his life. Also, Randy, Neil, and Simon loved him too. He gets put through to Hollywood.

Kimberly Carver – Neil seemed to enjoy this girl when she sang. I don’t remember her now, so I don’t know what to say. Simon says she wasn’t very interesting. However, all of the judges say yes to her.

Dexter Ward – An African-American guy with a bleach-haired Mohawk. To me, he sounded very bad. Randy says he looks like he was hurt. He was indeed rejected.

Erica Rhodes – A grad student and actress, who appeared as a kid from the children show Barney & Friends. She sang the Barney & Friends catchy song “I Love You”, but also says she wants to prove that Barney kids do grow up. Indeed she grew up, because she had a whip and wasn’t dressed like a child, for sure. When she sang a real song, Kara says she loved her originality. Also, Erica goes through to Hollywood. She was indeed a good singer, and does indeed prove she grows up.

Dave Pittman – A guy with Tourettes syndrome. In my opinion, he sang very excellent, and didn’t sing too country, more like rock-ish in my opinion I thought. Neil and Randy really liked his voice, and Simon says he’s likeable. He gets four votes for yes to Hollywood.

Now, it is a rather short day two, with Joe Jonas as guest judge.

Todrick Hall – He started singing very good, and sounded like he would impress any young girl. Randy says he’s impressive. Simon was left uncertain, but anyways, he got four votes for yes to Hollywood.

Maegan Wright- She, I believe, raises her little brother or something. Kara really liked her, and says she was surprised by her. All four of the judges say yes. I thought she sounded good, and authentic in my opinion.

Vanessa Johnston – A very happy, positive person who sang very loud and not god at all. Kara says she sould move her head like Brittany spears and Simon says she was like one of his nightmares. They all reject her, and she still had a happy, cheery attitude.

Christian Spear – She was the last hopeful to audition and was a leukemia survivor, suffering from Leukemia at age four. She sang very good, excellent in my opinion. Randy says she’s really good, and Simon and Kara says she’s brave. Christian goes to Hollywood with fur yes’s.

A total of 31 hopefuls were successful in their audition, bringing the total to 153. Denver, CO is the last stop before I will make a list of the top twelve auditioners. My favourite person from Dallas was surprisingly the Barney kid Erica Rhodes. My second favorite is clearly Dave Pittman. Below is a list of whom I liked from this audition along with the new top five.Overall, Dallas had a good variety of singers, so I was impressed by this city.

Love: Erica Rhodes, Dave Pittman, Todrick Hall

Like: Christian Spear, Maegan Wright, Lloyd Thomas

Neutral: Kimberly Carver

Meh:

Dislike:

Top 5:

5. Dave Pittman (Dallas)

4. Erica Rhodes (Dallas)

3. John Park (Chicago)

2. Jermaine Sellers (Atlanta)

1. Chris Golightly (Los Angeles)

JohnBigOz’s Views on CBB7UK – Day 24 Highlights show + Final evictions + Suprise Entrance

Posted in Authors, Big Brother, Celeb Big Brother 7 UK, JohnBigOz's Blog on January 27th, 2010 by JohnBigOz

So, nothing major has happened, the only 2 main events were … :

Housemates had a task, in which to scuplt some music legend (don’t remember) with a Look-A-Like choosing his favourite (Stephanie). Vinnie didn’t pariticpate as he wasn’t feeling very well.

At night, Alex refrenced Stephen’s superb “waking up ways” (Stephen tried to wake up Alex or soemthing lightly with a pillow) Which gave Vinnie an idea to sneak up and tickle Alex’s foot, which he successfully did, and made everyone laugh. Was quite funny

Onto the eviction

The 6th person to be evicted was Ivana, slightly shocked, but expected it, especiall since I wanted to Ivana go previous eviction, however, the 7th eviction was NICOLA!? Why her! She wa sawesome (maybe bit boring). Anyway, I loved that when they show mini statistics of the housemates, it said “Times Topless : 0… sorry guys”

Anyway, bit gutted that Nicola is out (and Ivana).

But the BEST part and the best SHOCK was the mystery guest,.. IT WAS DAVINA MCCALL! SHE PRESENTS THE SHOW! After 17 series and almost 11 years, she was finally allowed into the house longer WHILE someone was in there (previousl series she showed tour of the house). Wow, it was such a shocked, but I gotta admit I loved it, and I hope she stays until the Finale. But I doubt it, she was in the chicken suit. And how did she get in there? Well, thru the Diary Room, because when Nicola was evicted, she wore the chicken suit, and was evicted via the Diary Room, and replaced with Davina. awesome!

Well, this is for the final evictions, here are the ratings

(B) DAVINA :D

1. Stephanie

2. Jonas

3. Dane

4. Vinnie

5. Alex

Can you belive, there is only 3 more posts to go, (1 for tommorow highlights, and 2 for pre-show and post-show, notice I will not post the highlights of Day 26 as nothing will happen, they barely show any highlights.

So, enjoy it, and See u latrer.

JohnBigOz’s view on CBB7UK – The Final Eviction Pre-Show Thoughts

Posted in Authors, Big Brother, Celeb Big Brother 7 UK, JohnBigOz's Blog on January 27th, 2010 by JohnBigOz

So, 5 down, 6 more to go (the left over is the winner obviously)

All housemates are up (Alex, Dane, Ivana, Jonas, Nicola, Stephanie and Vinnie)

Here are all thoughts about all housemates

1. Alex – Bit boring, extremly vain, he’s alright, but I think he might go, he’s serioulsy boring

2. Dane – The only highlight of his was the secret task, but even with that he’s still boring

3. Ivana – When she entered she really annoyed me, but something since she survived the Double Whammy (Eviction) made me like her

4. Jonas – He’s alright, good sense of humour, good looking, all of that, has a small change of being in top 3.

5. Nicola – Love her, one of my top favourites, might not be “interseting” but she’s a good-hearted, family loving, fun, good sense of humour, who breaks the typical Model stereotype, good example for all models out there

6. Stephanie – A shock really, she has a chance of winning because she clearly ENJOYS being there, the tasks, the housemates, and the fact that she isn’t “technologically backward” and by that I mean she uses computer, knows everything about modern stuff, it makes me loves her for that

7. Vinnie – As much as I’d like him to go, I know he won’t, but still there is hope, he RARELY is shown with sense of humour, and to be honest he’s manipulative ways gets on my nerves.

Also, today it was announced that a GUEST (I doubt that 3 days before the finale they would put a new housemate) and from CBBBI I think it’s Jordan a.k.a Katie Price or wut-eve-a.

Anyway, since this is a double eviction, this is how I want it to go.

I want : Alex to go because he’s completely boring, and I want Vinnie to go because he’s well, annoying and manipulative.

AI9 – Auditions: Los Angeles, CA

Posted in American Idol 9 USA, Authors, Dan's Blog, Idol on January 27th, 2010 by Dan

The fifth audition city of American Idol 9 was indeed Los Angeles, the city of angels. Also, yes, the succesful auditioners have just a short trip when they go to Hollywood. In this episode, Avril Lavigne and Katy Perry took turns as being special guest judges. Avril was the judge on day one, and Katy was the judge on day two.

Neil Goldstein – He was the first hopeful to audition in Los Angeles. As hestarted singing, he got extremely nervous, pasing for abotu a minute. Also to mention, his hair made me feel very uncomfortable. He didn’t sing very well, and Simon says to him that he is not suited for this type of business. He was rejected, and decided to leave only to avoid being carried out by security, after trying to agrue with Simon.

Jim Ranger – This guy sings a song he wrote called Drive. Simon called him authentic, and Simon says yes to him. However, Avril said no, as I’m not sure why she said no in the first place. It was up to Kara and Randy, who apparently say yes, since he gets a golden ticket to Hollywood.

Damien Lefaver – This guy is addicted to another passion, Martial Arts, comparing himself to a pacifist. Singing is his other passion. However, for a day job, he makes sandwiches. He sang very bad, and was choking a lot. Simon tells Danien he should just go. Damien says he mesed up, admiting thtat, but says he could’ve done a whole lot better.

Mary Powers – Girl Rocker with a daughter who is a fan of Simon (the dughter is a fan). She sang very good, strong with emotion. Simon didn’t like her appearance, saying it was very cliche,  but says yes to singing. However, Avril loved her rock appearance and voice, and yes yes. As Randy and Kara also say yes, she’s pu through to Hollywood. My personal note is that she looks so much like Lydia from Big Brother US 11, only with singing talent.

Next, we hear from an guy (name not known) who says if Susan Boyle and Adam Lambert had sex, their kid would look like him. I thought that was so funny, but awkward at the same time.

AJ Mendoza – An Adam Lambert fan and lookalike, who sang very strony, kind of okay, but I don’t think it’d be what American Idol would look for. Simon says he sounded like he’s visiting the dentist for an appointment. He was rejected.

Next, it is day 2 and it is Katy Perry’s turn to be a judge.

Austin Fullmer – This guy sang outrageously horrible, and I could barely tell what he was saying, and he tried to sing with a British accent. Simon says this isn’t his purpose in life, and this guy also freaked Simon out. He was rejected.

Andrew Garcia – A guy coming from a struggling family. When he sang, it sounded much like oldies or blues to me. Simon says he was a geneuinely good singer. He gets four yes’s.

Tasha Layton – She started singing very good, in my opinion, but now I don’t remember her. Simon says people may like her. She gets four votes for yes and goes through to Hollywood.

Jason Greene – This guy started to sing, and it crepeped Kathy Perry out. He also sand very horrible, in my opinion. Katy tells Jason he made her feel dirty, and Jason tells Kathy the same thing. They all rejected him.

Chris Golightly – This kid is a foster kid who has always liked music. He sang very excellent, in my opinion. Randy says he’s interesting, and Kara says he’s her favorite, and I say he was my favorite LA hopeful. Katy says he needs more to him, but I thought Katy was being rude, as Katy calls Chris Golighty being in foster care a “Lifetime Movie”, and I personally took offense to that, so I dislike Katy Perry even more than I did, lol. Simon says he looks boy-band-sish, which I totally would disagree, Clay Aiken is more boy-band-ish than this guy. Anyways, with four yes’s, he goes through to Hollywood.

A total of 22 hopefuls will go to Hollywood from Los Angeles. This brings us up to 122. Los Angeles was okay, in their auditions. I would say that the best performances of this episode were obviously Mary Powers and Chris Golighty. I am deferentially placing them in the top five of my list. I believe Dallas is the last stp, and we go to Hollywood. Here is an LLNMD list of the Los Angeles successful auditioners and a new top 5 favorite hopefuls.

Love: Chris Golightly, Mary Powers

Like:

Neutral: Andrew Garcia,

Meh: Jim Ranger, Tasha Layton,

Dislike:

Top 5:

5. Leah Laurenti (Boston)

4. Mary Powers (Los Angeles)

3. John Park (Chicago)

2. Jermaine Sellers (Atlanta)

1. Chris Golightly (Los Angeles)

After the Dallas episode, expect to see a list of who I think should make the TOP 12, based off of the local auditions round only.

JohnBigOz’s View on CBB7UK – Day 23 Highlights show.

Posted in Authors, Big Brother, Celeb Big Brother 7 UK, JohnBigOz's Blog on January 26th, 2010 by JohnBigOz

Wow, I am amazed, it is only 4 days to go (now 3) until the final CBB ends, wow, how time flies by.

Anyway, onto the highlights show.

Nothing fascinating has happened, except for a task.

For today’s task, Ivana was told that she was nominated for the best International Buissnesswoman on Reality Show in Scandinavaian awards show called Kugel Fresh (or something like that), but that was infact fake, housemates were told that in order to recieve a “award ceremony party” they must convice Ivana that her award is a real one.

Ivana later learned, that she had to say her acceptance speech in English, German and Russian. It was revealed that she has won this award.

While back in the house (poor housemates could not stop laughing). They were told that in order to successfully pass this task, they also had to “ridicule the award”, “drink out of it”, and “SMASH IT!” But before they managed to drink, Stephanie seriously accidently broke it (she didn’t realize that the glass was Sugar, so it broke easily” she then startd to cry (note Stpehanie is an actress), she went into the Diary Room, and could not stop laughing, that was one of her BEST BITS, I hate if thye don’t put that in.

Housemates have passed the task, and Ivana was less than bothered about it (good for her)

HOusemates therefore won the party, and most of the housemates have won some award, Stephanie won the Bitchiest housemate, Nicola the most attractive, and Vinnie won most likely to win (there were more awards).

In the evening, housemates recieved some pampering products, and Alex used all of his Fake Tan on ALL of himself (I am not sure, but I think he actually USED EVERYONE’S FAKE TAN). It was hiliarous, seriously, he looked like a baked bean or something, even Stephanie laughed.

Here are the ratings of housemates for today

1. Stephanie

2. Nicola

3. Ivana

4. Jonas

5. Alex

6. Vinnie

7. Dane

PBB DOUBLE UP Day 113

Posted in Big Brother, Big Brother 3 Philippines, Carlex's Blog on January 26th, 2010 by carlex rol

sooooo excited!!

19 days to go before the Big Night!

this post is about tonight’s episode. and speaking of the episode, it was all about the continuation of the KIMERALD’s visit (Kim and Gerald Love team, former housemates, Big Winner and 3rd Big Placer respectively) and the 2nd BIG JUMP TO THE BIG NIGHT BATTLE.

KIMERALD on the confession room of Big Brother!

Cliche as it may be, but it seemed just yesterday that Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson were only housemates from the Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition themselves. But today, just look how far they’ve gone – from being the Amboy of Gensan and the Chinese Cutie from Cebu, they have become two of the most-sought and looked-up actors in the local entertainment industry! And that was exactly what Big Brother proudly pointed out to them when finally – after four to five years – they got back inside the Big Brother house! “Proud ako sa inyo na dala-dala niyo pa rin ang natutunan niyo mula sa pagstay niyo dito sa bahay ko noon (I’m proud that you still have with yout the lessons you’ve learned from your stay inside my house),” Big Brother told them. This naturally made the two well up with tears and replied they couldn’t have been anymore grateful to Big Brother for letting them stay inside the house back then. “Kung ‘di po dahil sa inyo, hindi po namin maaabot ‘tong namin ngayon (If it weren’t for you, we couldn’t have achieved what we have now),” Kim said sincerely.it was really a nice thing to think of that former housemates have already made themselves very popular indeed whether they won or not. and all of them are never forget Big Brother!

Meanwhile, the members of Team Paul Jake also learned a lot of things from their special meeting with the Kimerald love team since the two also shared a couple of their experiences with them. Later on, Tibo and Paul Jake both said that the words of encouragement left to them by the two were a big motivation for them to go on with their fight inside the house. “Nakakagaan ng loob yung sinasabi nilang wag kayong gigive-up (Hearing them tell us not to ever give up was uplifting),” Tibo added.

the KIMERALD’s visit to the house made Jayson too excited. Because of the rule of not interacting with the other team, Jason and the rest of the members of Team Johan stayed inside the house while Team Paul Jake busily entertained their guests Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson by the garden area. However, the former team couldn’t help but take peeks on what was going on outside. So what Jason did was to be the prime mover in doing something about their helpless starstruck state! First, he opened the glass door so he could have an unobstructed view of Kim and Gerald.

Then he took a further step by throwing out a big plastic bag containing trash, intentionally walking by where the two special visitors sat.(lol!, He’s really funny!!) The housemates, the two visitors and even Big Brother couldn’t help but notice Jason’s attention-seeking! Thus, Jason was given the privilege to pretend to wipe the glass doors and windows (in which he sprayed liquid cleanser to wooden things in between) and mopping the floor in an ungodly hour just so he would be able to see and be near Kim.

the kimerald had also the chance to take a tour throughout the BB House with the housemates.

another remarkable happening for today was the battle for the Big Jump to the Big Night.

the battle was about memory power again with a sort of obstacles. each member of the group must chose one of the folded black cards with corresponding cell phone numbers and they must memorize it. (in philippines, mobile numbers have 11 digits.so imagine,for just a matter of 15 – 20 seconds,they must memorize it). after memorizing, they must pass the obstacles with their opponents awaiting on them and destructing them while passing the obstacle. the opposing team can uses anything that can provide loud noise. Team Johan put cooton on their ears to minimize the noise but still, Team Paul Jake managed to win! with a score of 3-2 in favor of Team Paul jake, for the 2nd time around, their team won. (it was the points made by rica, melai and Mariel).

through this winning, Kuya (Big Brother) announced that the battle for the spot for Big 4 is only a “best of 3 games”. making team Paul Jake to lead and Team Johan to a “do or die” game. in addition, if tomorrow’s game will be Team Johan’s 1st victory, Big Brother will grant a reward for one of the member of the team, and that is to give him/her a chance to compete for the individual tasks for the latest twist. But, if Team Paul Jake make it a 3 straight win, only his team is eligible for the individual competition for Big Jump to the Big Night, and will take the pedestal in the garden!.

that’s for today, got to go!

thanks for reading!

Posted in Authors, Big Brother, Celeb Big Brother 7 UK, JohnBigOz's Blog on January 25th, 2010 by JohnBigOz

So, nothing fascinating happened except for the fact that housemates were woken up by Rick Astely’s songs,

Nothing really happened after that, for today’s task housemates had to be chained up toghether, Vinnie and Ivana, Alex and Dane, and Stephanie, Nicola and Jonas, so cool, they were all hilarious, poor Stephanie failed to be amused by Nicola’s “Anal Joke”, while Vinnie and Ivana, were s=really funny toghether.

Today was quiet boring really, nothing happened that was good of nothing.

The only good think was at the end, in which Dane was told that he could invite one other housemate to share another Mystery Key Privelage, Dane chose Jonas, and, they were invited to a literaly, Game’s room (like boys one aswell), they had pictures of Ivana, Stephanie and Nicola (When they were younger) and hey Beer and Pizza, and played Nintendo Wii, was awesome.

Here are today opinion ratings

1. Stephanie

2. Nicola

3. Dane

4. Jonas

5. Ivana

6. Vinnie

7. Alex

PBB DOUBLE UP Day 112 – 113 (14th Nomination Night, Kuya’s Darling, & Big Jump to the Big Night Twist)

Posted in Big Brother, Big Brother 3 Philippines, Carlex's Blog on January 25th, 2010 by carlex rol

this review is about the day 112-113 of PBB.

because of the so much twists and happenings inside the house, i will try my best to summarize it. especially now, that 20 days after, Big Night will happen.

first of all, i am going to talk about the latest nominees. (i thought that there would no more nomination because they were only 7 but Kuya(Big Brother) is really unpredictable.

for this week, the last HOH battle was held and making Tibo as the latest and last HOH.the process or battle of the housemates for the HOH title was a battle to win the heart of each housemate. for this battle, the housemates, themselves were the one eligible for choosing the last HOH. Melai and Tibo got tied and was break by the ex housemates. because he is the last HOH, the power to give an automatic nomination is vested on him too. and as a result, he chose Jayson to be up for the eviction.

while joining Jayson on the list are Melai, Kath, Johan and Paul Jake. in short, only Mariel and Tibo was immune for eviction.

well, eventually, their reasons for nominations was still the same except for the fact that Melisa and Paul Jake got the highest points (which is rare to happen).

the entrance of the Kuya’s Darling was also noted for yesterday’s episode.

the housemates believed that Rica, Princess and Yuri are all returning to the house as housemates again. some were disappointed except for Melai and Jayson for the reason that they were close to the three ex housemates. the three eggs that they bought inside the house was a message for the housemates. (actually, this was really intended for the housemates to believed the scheme.) the message on the eggs was “WE ARE RETUNING AS HOUSEMATES”. this was a shocking news indeed for the housemates for they thought that it will be only 3 weeks before the big night.

when day 113 came, a big pedestal was seen by the housemates on the garden. (by the way, there were awaken by Kuya through the playback of the announcements of the 6 editions Big Winners).

this pedestal include the big twist that Kuya had prepared for them. It is the BIG JUMP TO THE BIG NIGHT.

this twist means that housemates would undergo several competitions and tasks that if they will be able to win, they can assure of a place on the Big 4. meaning he or she is guaranteed not only of his/her place on Big 4 but also the assurance of coming to the Big Night. at the end of the week, the winner will be announce s the very first member of the Big 4.

the game includes dividing the housemates into two groups, on which they had to compete first by teams. then the winning team’s members will compete to each other to win the twist.

the picture shows the group leaded by johan and paul jake respectively.

From left. Paul Jake, Tibo, Mariel and Melisa.

Rica is also part of this team pretending that she would also compete for the said twist. while Paul jake stands as the leader of this group.

on the other hand, this team is leaded by Johan(from left), followed by jason and Kath. Yuri and Princess is part of this team.

in accordance with the tasks and competition, each group is not allowed to talk or to interact to each other. Even the Big Brother house was divided for them not to come contact to each other.

the 1st game was a task that has something to do with “memory power”. lol

each team was instructed to place the pictures of their tasks consecutively according to what they done first up to the last. Through the help of Melai, Paul Jake’s team was able to win the 1st game.

their prize for the 1st game was an encounter with TEEN EDITION 1 Big Winner and 3rd Big placer, Kim Chui and Gerald Anderson. this encounter is a big opportunity (for filipinos) to meet the hottest teen stars of today. Kim and gerald in our country is now the hottest love team on primetime and they have a lot of followers.(even me!) this was really a funny encounter with the housemates (especially Melai). Melai was given a privilege  to act with Gerald and have those famous lines from the love team’s past soap opera.  this encounter was not yet finished and tomorrow, it will be continued. by the way, the loosing team was not able to talk to the great HouseGuests!

as what the preview showed, Kim and Gerald had a talk with Big Brother that made Gerald shed a bucket of tears. (it’s too touching, he remembered the time when he was only a simple teen who entered the Big Brother House).

for the 1st task of the House players, the public was asked. “who among the housemates do you want to cry?” and the Text Poll’s result was Paul Jake. now the job of the 3 house players will start. will they be able to win the task?. if they would, 15,000 thousand pesos in in stake for them.

that’s for today!

thanks for reading!

comments are always appreciated.

JohnBigOz’s view on CBB7UK – Day 21 Highlights

Posted in Authors, Big Brother, Celeb Big Brother 7 UK, JohnBigOz's Blog on January 25th, 2010 by JohnBigOz

So, once again I let my sister watch their lovely movies, well actually, I played L4D1 with my bro… hehe.

Anyway, here are the summary of yesterday’s highlights show.

In the first part of the show, Stephanie and Vinnie were in the kitchen, and Stephanie said that “Sisqo was a big charachter” (which Vinnie disagreed with, which proves he still disliked him). Anyway nothing else happened except Nicola, Stephanie and Ivana talked about Dane coming out his flower (opening up to people).

While in the snug, Nicola was tempted by the tree, to Tell the Truth and Kiss a housemate, in return for a message from home. Nicola told Ivana she had a nice tracksuit, but told her she looks like a big fat orange, then kissed her on the cheek, she has to that for all 6 housemates.

In the second part, the continuation of the task, Nicola told

Dane : that he stinks and looks like Danny de Vito

Jonas : He looks like a rat (Ronald Rat I think)

Alex : That he has almost green teeth.

Stephanie : She has a big bush on her head

Nicola annoyed the tree (which made the time to be by 6 PM) .

Housemates talked about diffrent stuff, Stephanie talked about an actor she worked with (who is now dead), and Dane said that Heidi “bunked him”.

Anyway, Nicola managed to tell and kiss Vinnie by telling him he gained weight, though he refused to give her a kiss. But she managed to kiss him and won a message from her parents and her daughter.

Later in the day, housemates recieved Celebrity Mistakes / Embarassing Moments Charades game, in which the total number of won would mean 5 minutes in bed next morning, housemates passed after they managed to win 1 hour and 10 minutes in bed.

In the evening, Jonas expressed his feeling of loneliness to Big Brother, and when he got out of the DR, everyone was gone (to bed). So sad,

Here are the ratings for today

1. Nicola

2. Stephanie

3. Jonas

4. Dane

5. Ivana

6. Alex

7. Vinnie

JohnBigOz’s View on CBB7UK – Day 20 Highlights Show

Posted in Authors, Big Brother, Celeb Big Brother 7 UK, JohnBigOz's Blog on January 24th, 2010 by JohnBigOz

Why so late you think? Well it simple, I didn’t get to watch Big Brother yesterday and at the moment I am watching the episode on 4oD YouTube channel :)

In the morning, Stephanie came to the Diary Room and after Big Brother asked her what she will miss the most (or how will the upcoming week be like) she started to get emotional, she claimed that she will miss the Bible, and that she got emotional over it. She then told this to Stephen who said it was because of the Holy Spirit, now that’s freaky.

In the second part of the episode, Sisqo and Nicola had a disagreement about something I already can’t remember, something about Nicola saying Sisqo can’t be sarcastic. Also, Jonas looked so hot in his blue tank top and shiny (leather-ly) trousers, ugh, just wanted to grab him I mean it.

Big Brother told Jonas, that as he is Swedish, he must sabotage the Swedish Flap Jack challenge, by that, housemates had to fail to assemble a storage unit and a chair, they successfuly done that and have been rewarded with Swedish Party

In the third part, housemates had their eviction, but few minutes before that, Alex was given a cold shower by Jonas and Dane (with Vinnie and Ivana watched).

During the eviction (or post Sisqo) I do think that Vinnie is really up himself recently, he seems to believe he’s going to win, I mean c’mon!

In the final part of the episode, Housemates recieved their Swedish Spa, where Alex gave nice massage with his “wooden balls” to Ivana and Stephanie (both loved it).

In the evening, Nicola managed to fart with her legs (you know the armpit fart thingy? She can do it with her knees) so hiliarious

That’s all, here are my ratings for today

1. Nicola

2. Stephanie

3. Jonas

4. Ivana

5. Dane

6. Alex

7. Vinnie
