World of Big Brother Blog

21 days to go..before the Big Night.

first of all, i would like to give thanks and to mention Dan, for giving me facts about the House Player Twist,(which i will further discuss on this post).

for this live eviction night, 3 exits were done and welcomed by the public. First for Cathy, secondly, for the ex housemates, and lastly, for the latest evictee.

speaking of cathy, another first in the history of PBB happened. When she took her exit, and was welcomed by the public outside, her very dedicated and die hard fans got a surprise for her. There were confetti and fireworks displayed all courtesy of her fans. She was surprised (and also Me! i didn’t expect that she will have that for what i know, public hates her). Second exit was for the male ex housemates who took the tasks and bid their farewell to Big Brother. Outside, their cash prizes were given courtesy of the eggs and games that they won over the housemates. a total of 150,000 thousand pesos was given. It was originally deducted from the prizes of Big 4.

aside from the eviction, public also waited for the result and comments of the ex housemates for the interrogation that happened yesterday.

interrogation of the exhousemates

Kath, facing the ex housemates' hot questions.

As if the ongoing resbak attacks weren’t enough challenges, Big Brother formed the ex-housemates into a special jury where they were given the opportunity to interrogate the housemates. The all-black jury members appeared serious as they sat in two rows facing the seat where the interrogated housemate would be.

The highlight of this encounter was of Kath’s, Tibo’s, Hermes’s and Johan’s. Bombed with provoking questions, Kath braved the grim expressions on the faces of the jury members. When Patrick asked her what she felt about the attacks they made upon her and her fellow housemates, she firmly said, “Dahil sa mga ginawa niyo, naging mas strong ako (With all that you did, I became stronger).” However, the verdict of the jury was that Kath seldom shows her true emotions inside the Big Brother House which made it difficult to come up with an accurate assessment of her.

Meanwhile, Tibo was grilled about his being the most know-it-all among the housemates. While fighting back tears, he defended himself saying he was only showing who he really is, which he believed was the one of the main points of staying inside the house. Even though the jury were stingy with the words they threw at him, they decided that Tibo was just truly being himself. “Marami na siyang pinagdaanan sa buhay kaya marami talaga siyang advice (He already went through a lot in his life, that’s why he has many pieces of advice to share),” Cathy noted.

Hermes’s and Johan’s interrogation were expectedly topped with a lot of Cathy-related issues. The first question threw at Hermes was from Cathy, asking if he missed her. But before he could finish his answer (which was a hearty yes), another question shot through – “Do you miss Kaitlin (of Finland)?” which Hermes also answered with a yes. That made Cathy went off and demanded to know whom Hermes missed more. “Siyempre, ikaw (Of course, you),” Hermes said, almost as-a-matter-of-factly. “Yung miss ko sa ‘yo eh iba naman sa kanya (The way I miss you is different than how I feel about her).”

On the other hand, Johan fought for his feelings all throughout his session with the jury. Without hesitation, he looked them in the eyes and said, “Gusto ko siya (Cathy), gusto ko siyang ligawan, gusto ko siyang maging girl friend (I like her, I want to court her, I want her to be my girl friend).” It sounded utterly convincing thus having the jury commend with his outpouring.

after the hot interrogation of the housemates, another House Guest entered the BB house.

Senator Loren Legarda

Serious matters call for serious measures, hence the visit of Senator Loren Legarda inside the Big Brother House. Dressed as a cleaning lady in white, she joined the housemates in their gardening project. The housemates were obviously speechless at first for they never imagined a senator entering the house just to visit. But when Sen. Legarda started on warming up with them by checking on with the progress of their gardening project, they eventually opened up to her, especially during the discussion of the causes and effects of climate change and the benefits of solid waste management. She also asked the housemates about their experiences and learning inside the house. Among the ones who answered were Paul Jake and Tibo who said they have grown more mature mentally and personality wise inside the house.

going back to business, after the topic about the latest house guest, voting lines have been closed and votes have been counted. Toni, announced the first housemate to be saved (unknown to the housemates, the public are the one who still controls the eviction).

it was Kath saved first, then followed by johan. then tibo and hermes was left out.

then after the commercial break, Toni announced that Tibo is the last housemate saved.

here are the result of the eviction votes.

EVICT VOTES (E)

SAVED VOTES (S)

TOTAL (T)

JOHAN (S)+33.32   (E)-7.32    (T)  +26.00

KATH   (S)+9.43     (E)-2.74     (T)   +6.69

TIBO    (S)+12.56    (E)-10.67    (T)  +1.90

HERMES  (S) +8.56   (E)-15.40   (T)  -6.84

as you can see, Hermes was saved if only save votes are only counted, but he was evicted because of the large number of people who wanted him to be out.

HERMES bidding his farewell to the housemates.

He was welcomed by the public, with the revelation to him that the public is still the one who decides the eviction.

after Hermes’ eviction, the result of the Char Char change was revealed. and it was a result that i expected.

HOUSEMATE                        THE ONE HE VOTED

TIBO                                          HERMES

MARIEL                                   KATH

HERMES                                   JOHAN

MELAI                                      TIBO

JASON                                       TIBO

KATH                                        HERMES

JOHAN                                     HERMES

PAUL JAKE                            HERMES

as you can see, HEMRES got 4 points to evict,Tibo got 2 points, Kath got 1 point, Johan got 1 point,  meaning that if the voting was true, still,  Hermes will still be evicted.

After the revelations, the Kuya’s Darling was revealed.

Public was curious why Yuri, Rica and Princess are not still going out of the house. then TOni said that they were currently talking to Big Brother.

Big Brother revealed that the 3 new Houseplayers will be Rica, Princess and Yuri. They will be the House players on whom the public will control on.

Big Brother said that they would pretend that the 3 eggs that were broken by Melai, Hermes and Jason, the consequence will be the entrance of 3 ex housemates competing again. (but again, its just a big task for the 3 darlings.)

as i watch live stream now, the 3 house players entered the house, and the housemates are still on the state of shock. lol

(–,)

that’s for now, thanks for reading.

Tomorrow will be a nomination night again, and i think it would be a face to face nomination. haha..i hope so. (–,)

So, onto the highlights.

As Dane successfully completed his task, Big Brother awared him with the box for the key, a box with chocolate cake and some champange, Big Brother announced that this is his, and he can also choose one housemate (Stephanie) to also recieve SUPRISE CAKE (literally)

Sisqo and Vinnie cleared the air, but Vinnie was upset about Sisqo (After Sisqo bitched about him in the evening) and filed a complaint against him, though they cleared up the air.

Housemates recieved a party as a result of 21st anniversary of Stephen’s Soberity (congrats to him)

During the party, Big Brother called Stephanie to the room, and droped her SUPRISE CAKE onto her (and fooled other housemates into thinking that BB will drop cake on others as well). When everyone was done, Stephanie was relucant to go to the DR again (and was right, another cake was dropped on her) but I gotta admit, she took it well, which is WHY I like her.

Housemates also won a fake poo, which Nicola decided to put in Ivana’s bed (who also took it well).

Now onto the eviction.

The first to go was Stephen, which wasn’t really that suprise, he got booed badly, though I gotta admit that the show will be bit boring now.

The second to go was SISQO, that WAS a suprise, Ivana is more popular that Sisqo? (and Stephen), that was a small dissapointment… so, in just 7 days, the winner will be crowned (the FINAL Celebrity Big BRother Winner). Who wins! We decided

Alex, Dane, Ivana, Jonas, Nicola, Stephanie and Vinnie are up for another suprise double chop on WEDNSDAY, and, to top it all, here are the up-to-date ratings of housemates

1. Stephanie (After today’s show and how well she took the prank made me like here even more)

2. Nicola (simply a sweetheart, and suprised that she didn’t even get booed at all.)

3. Dane (suprise here eh? I loved that he did the secret task.)

4. Ivana (something today made me like her more)

5. Jonas (he is more quiet recently, bad sign)

6. Alex (he’s so BORING)

7. Vinnie (still manipulative bossy boss).

See you tommorow.

So, Sisqo, Stephen and Ivana are up for the public vote, and two of them will go today.

Honestly, It’s the worst 3 nominees, because either Sisqo or Stephen (or both) will go, and I don’t want that as they are both amazing characters in their own way, same goes for Heidi and Sov (though after few days I started to have Sov anyway)

So, with that being said, this is how my thoughts on the nominees

I want Ivana to be the 4th to go, because she doesn’t do much anyway, and is bit moany.. little bit, and sometimes I find her nominations reasons pathethic, and when she was new, her humour was bit forced.

Stephen – His preaching is annoying, but I love his weirdness and creepiness, which is why I think he should stay.

Sisqo -  Sisqo is fun, and has good sense of humour, but except for that he does nothing fascinating, though the fact that he wants to stand up to Vinnie is what I want to see.

Anyway, I want Ivana and probaly Sisqo to go tonight.

So, who do you think will be the 4th and 5th person to be evicted and what do you think Davina will wear?

good day!

22 days to go before the Big Night.

it was really a great week for the housemates and as well for the public. we have witnessed the real actions and happenings on the house as the ex housemates triggered to make the housemates show who really they are.

Some were pissed off because off the task, but some felt more confidence and lose hope till the very end of the week!! Congrats housemates!!

the public was able to see the real identity of the housemates and as well with their principles in life that varies from one another.

the remarkable line from Paul Jake: “all people have their own good side, as well as the bad side.there’s nothing wrong with that, as long as you are true to yourself.”

great isn’t it?.

i’ll just make a short summary of the happenings from day 108-110.(but probably, day 109 in primetime). first, housemates have discussed and they were able to have an open forum for it. Melai, Jason, hermes, believed that the tower and eggs were not the real task, but it is to maintain the friendship with other people, and to maintain the peacefulness among them.

Obviously shaken with the pressure of the never-ending challenges they undergo, the housemates discussed trust with each other the same night after their peace was momentarily disturbed by the visits of their ex-housemates. All of them asked themselves about which weighed more in their lives for the moment: was it friendship or was it the task Big Brother had given them for the week?

Everybody had their opinion for this matter. Jason and Melai were on the same side, believing that they should have just let the ex-housemates do whatever they needed to do to them or their place. The rest of the housemates disagreed with them, especially Tibo who dared to ask the two of whose side they were really on. But Jason immediately reasoned out the importance of not hurting anyone – physically or emotionally – inside the house. “Ano’ng mas gusto mo: masira yan (towers) o magkasiraan tayo? (Which do you prefer: those (towers) broken or our (housemates) ties broken?)”

On the other hand, Big Brother talked to the ex-housemates in House B on whom they think were the truest among the housemates during their psywar attack. Rica and Princess both chose Paul Jake and Mariel, saying they were the only ones who showed real reactions. “They really came out of their shells,” she stressed.

Going back to the housemates, they weren’t able to down to a final decision on their priority dilemma because a ceasefire was implemented between them and the resbak attackers. This was because of the Uber game they all had to play, in which the housemates played as houseflies – in complete costume and all – and the ex-housemates – with their giant swatter to shoo away the housemates – as the guardians of the balls the former had to collect from the containers they guarded. Perhaps the stress of seeing their ex-housemates once again caused the housemates to fail to execute their strategies properly in turn, making them lose the game.

And sadly, that wasn’t their only loss for that day. Because later that night, the ex-housemates attacked the twin towers of dominoes. Sure, the housemates were ready to fight but it seemed like luck wasn’t on their side that night. After one of the black-hooded attackers smashed one of the towers, the other one also fell down only moments after. The sadness and frustration of the housemates couldn’t be denied from the heavy looks that loomed their faces.

But just when everybody thought they had endured enough losses for the day, it was found out that Hermes’s baby egg got crushed under his weight while he sat down rebuilding the fallen towers. Even though it was clearly an accident, he couldn’t help but feel guilty for having slashed a big amount from the money prize of the future Big Four. “Sorry sa mga magbi-Big Four; promise babayaran ko sa labas (Sorry to those who will be in the Big Four; I promise I’ll pay for it outside),” he apologized.

melason, discussing with the other housemates.,

rebuilding the towers

The second face-off between the housemates and the ex-housemates happened through another 45k-worth of game which followed the pattern of the magician’s magic cups. The ex-housemates were to hide inside life-sized boxes and shuffle themselves while the housemates chose which of them contained the respective ex-housemates Big Brother assigned them to find. Jason played first and was successful in picking the boxes which contained Delio, Kenny and Princess. So was the same with Tibo and Mariel who each guessed correctly with their selection, which were Rica, Princess and Rob and Patrick, Princess and Yuri respectively. Melai, however, failed to name the housemate -which was Ron – inside one of her chosen boxes correctly. As a consequence, she got sprayed on the face with a foamy shaving cream. The game went on until Big Brother gave out the result: the housemates once again failed to earn the victory.

Another occurence the housemates overlooked was the visit of resbak attackers Kenny and Delio. Sure, when the two entered the house, the housemates – especially Melai, Jason and Tibo – were quick on their toes on not trusting the visitors to come out to the swimming pool area where their twin towers of dominoes were. However, as Kenny and Delio were determined to ace their part in the major plan of attacking the housemates, they slowly gained the trust and affection of several housemates.

But just when things were getting comfortable around the visitors and the housemates, Rob and Princess suddenly appeared on the pedestal hovering the pool area and started attacking the twin towers. Simultaneously, Delio started on with his real intention in entering the house and that was to crush the housemates’ baby eggs. He succeeded when Jason absentmindedly handed over his and by also challenging Melai to also offer hers as a symbol of her being true to her words of money being not important to her. “O sige, panatilihing nakatayo ang towers pero kung nagkakasiraan na tayo, ako na mismo ang babasag niyan (Okay, keep the towers standing, but if that meant ruining our friendships, I myself will destroy those),” Melai expressed, in reference to her opinion about friendship versus task. This stemmed on to an instant open forum among the housemates, of which Johan started. He pinpointed that although he hated a person with an arrogant behavior such as Paul Jake, he tries his best to get along. In reply, Paul Jake just calmly said that he didn’t care because that was who he was. Later on in his talk with Big Brother in the confession room, he shared a deep thought that would have been helpful to the current emotional state of the housemates inside the house.

While the housemates carried on in opening their real feelings about each other, the resbak attackers took this as a cue to enter the pool area. Clad in full combat attire, they marched in like soldiers and shocked the housemates with their appearance. And unlike in action movies where the leading stars are winners, the housemates lost their most protected treasure – which was the twin towers of dominoes – to the villains. Upon this downfall, Big Brother called out to the all of the housemates and announced that he was putting a stop to the battle waged between the two groups. With that, the resbak attackers scurried off to House B while the housemates started building their towers once again.

However, not all of the housemates believed they still had to go on with the task Big Brother gave them. Two of these were Melai and Jason, who stopped helping the others in rebuilding. Not only that, they tried convincing the others to stop working and just letting the resbak attackers win the task. Hermes, probably moved by their arguments, quit and joined Melason on their sleeping mats by the pool. The other housemates, especially Mariel and Paul Jake, were unfazed and still went on to push through with the weekly task.

the fallen of the tower

but just after a while, another attack happened, while mariel, kath, paul jake tibo, and johan protected the tower against the ex housemates. it was really indeed a very sad moment!! it took y heart into pieces seeing the housemates looking so tired but still, protecting the towers with all their might. =’(

on the other hand, the other three were watching them.=’( they have really made up their mind.

Big Brother (or KUYA in our language, i supposedly used it before) said that if they were able to maintain the tower standing before the sunrise, they will pass. then, from midnight up to the morning, it was an unstoppable fight between the ex housemates and housemates (throwing and hitting each other with plastic bags with water).imagine that, from midnight up to morning, they were consecutively throwing and protecting the tower. how poor and harsh! soooo tiring! then, when the ex housemates run out of their weapon, they decided to stop. this also led Kuya to decide and announced that the guarding task with the tower is done. hohh!! i felt pity for them, but i am also proud! Coz, from now on, they are all deserving to be in the big 4!

..though it was a tiring week, tomorrow’s episode will never be stopped. it’s going to be another live eviction, and one of the nominees,(Tibo, Kath, Johan and hermes) will be booted out of the house. Still, unknown to them, the public is currently voting. they still believed that they were the one deciding for the latest evictee.  I hope hermes would not be evicted, he’s fine with me now, as well with the other housemates.

..But wait!! if you think that ex housemates were done on their part, no no no!! they are still on the house and they are not yet finished with their business. As what i’ve knew, the ex housemates will decide for the week’s HOH. the process was based on the interrogation they’ve done with the housemates in a black room, where they also wear black attires. they asked some issues and clarifications. all connected to the upbringing of the “REAL” identity of the housemates for the public to choose the Big Winner.this latest HOH game will be televised tomorrow on the eviction night.

ANOTHER ANNOUNCEMENT!!

..if you think Kuya is also done with his twist, oh..another no no no!!

because, before tonight’s show was finished, it was announced that 3 HOUSEPLAYERS will enter the big brother house on sunday. Big Brother is now giving the full control to the public to know the real housemates from those who are still playing safe. Houseplayers are those who will execute the public’s will for the show. basically, it is based on text poll results. like, “who is the housemate you want for the houseplayer to argue with?. or who among the remaining housemates you want for the houseplayer to nominate.?”

it was revealed that three (3) females will be public’s houseplayers. THey were called “KUYA’ DARLING” (based on charlie’ s angels) (kuya=Big Brother)

..that’s for today, see you all on the eviction night!

(–,)

Thanks for reading!

comments are very much appreciated.

So, as Dane passed his secret mission, he recieved the key FOR HIMSELF (Sisqo lost it). And the punishment stopped.

They kept questionin poor Dane though, anyway, Big Brother gave housemates a roast, and then, later, they had a task in which they had to fill a mesh of a cow with real raw pieces of meat (yeauk). I loved how Nicola said she is going to go vegetarian after that task, speaking of Nicola, she cried as she was worried about the health of her baby (Dane and Jonas assured that nothing has happened, even if something happened, BB would defo tell her).

Anyway, after the task, housemates recieved some BOOZE, and Sisqo started a war with Vinnie (who got pissed off).

That’s all I can think that happened, and I belive that Jonas is going Christian!!!

Anyway, here are the ratings of the housemates

1. Stephen

2. Nicola

3. Jonas

4. Stephanie

5. Dane

6. Sisqo

7. Alex

8. Ivana

9. Vinnie

Sorry I did not make this post earlier, yesterday I was up late at 1 am and I had school at 8:55 AM, so, I had to get SOME sleep.

At morning, as a result of Severe Rule Break of losing the mystery key (which Sov took). Big Brother replaced sugar with salt (which Vinnie drank with his tea or coffee). Turned up the heat in the bedroom to about 28 degrees, and shut down all eletrical appliances housemate can use (Hair Dryers etc) and turned off hot water.

Later, BB replaced all sofas with benches (and the one in the snug was covered in honey which Stephen realised as he noticed his shoes suddenly became sticky) Bedding also was replaced with gifts being scattered around for every housemate, however, in all gifts was chocolate, except for the 3 ones, being Sisqo’s, Ivana’s and Stephen’s (who learned they’re up).

While housemates got punished, Dane got tempted by The Tree of Temptation (love that twist) He had to ruin the dinner with chilli powder (he failed, as he made the dinner just better) but as he gave it a go, he recieved another chance, in which he had to pretend he had a nightmare, and wake everyone up (well almost everyone) and recieve a sympathy hug (Nicola) it is unknown wether he passed, but it appears so and I think he should as he managed to wake up majority of housemates.

Vinnie, Alex, Dane , Nicola and Stephen were in the kitchen when I belive Vinnie “called out” Stephen on his ways, or something like that I can’t remember.

Well, that all

P.S – I so forgot to mention that ON DAY 16 (it’s Day 18 in BBhouse) that Nicola, Sisqo, Jonas and Dane were at the Dinning Table, and Nicola said “I have a big burp”, she stood up and burped so loud, I loved it!

Anyway, here are the statictics for Day 17

1. Stephen

2. Nicola

3. Jonas

4. Stephanie

5. Sisqo

6. Dane

7. Alex

8. Ivana

9. Vinnie.

The Amazing Race has finally been revealed by CBS. I personally knew the names, relationships, and personal information of the cast a while ago, I just waited for this to be revealed by CBS, who officially should be announcing everything, CBS just announces everything later than the actually cast spoilers. The Amazing Race will premier February 14th, right after Super Bowl week. This season features eleven teams, meaning we shouldn’t be starting with a twist, unless I hear otherwise. So here we go, announcing the teams.

Caite & Brent – This is a dating couple from South Carolina.  They are both models. Caite is famous for her embarrassing failure to answer her question on Miss. Teen USA’s pageant. Ironic for TAR, her Pageant question was about kids knowing world geography, something Caite knows nothing about apparently. She’s also the first ever underage contestant, excluding TAR8′s kids. She’s the fourth age exception made by CBS, requiring Reality participants to be 21 (before 2009). Michelle (BB4), Daniele Donato (BB8), and Frosti Zernow (Survivor China) were the other exceptions CBS made. Maybe if Caite becomes a star racer, she’ll convince the producers to lower the age limit to 18, just like wat Survivor did.

Carol & Brandy – This couple is a dating couple from Los Angeles, CA. They are a lesbian couple and they’re the second lesbian couple to be featured on TAR. Carol owns her own business and Brandy is an actress, but Carol and Brandy are much older than most models/actors featured on Reality TV. Both Carol and Brandy are in their forties.

Dana & Adrian – They are a married African-American couple from Arlington, Texas. Both Dana and Adrian are owners of a business.  They are one of two African-American teams, in which I believe only two other seasons (TAR1 & TAR3) has two African-American teams. They seem to be very deeply into their religious beliefs, which is cool, I always love that.

Jet & Cord – They are brothers, who are also both cowboys, aka cattle ranchers. They both reside in towns from Oklahoma. They actually look like a very smart team, and I don’t believe they fit under any rancher/cowboy stereotype, other than being Cowboys, of course.

Jody & Shannon – This duo is a grandmother & granddaughter team, making the first ever grandmother/granddaughter team TAR has had and the second grandparent/grandchild team (Nick & Don, TAR12 were first). They both have a passion for athletics and fitness, yes, Jody, who is 71, making her the new oldest contestant from TAR, still runs marathons and is a personal trainer. I usually doubt the success of female teams, and especially teams with older team mates, just because I still remember all the other winners, but I actually see a potential in this team.

Joe & Heidi – This couple is a Asian-American married couple who run and coach a sports youth program in their won, El Segundo, California. I believe they are the first Asian-American couple with a romantic relationship. I believe that a coach of spots, for kids is a good way to use those skills for The Amazing Race, so I see potential in this team as well.

Jordan & Daniel – This duo is a team of brothers, making us having two brother teams this season. They are extreme sports’ activists, or mostly I believe Daniel is, as they are fans of the New England Teams. They are both from Barrington, Rhode Island.

Jordan & Jeff – This couple is a newly dating couple from different states. Jeff is from Illinois and Jordan is from North Carolina. They met on last year’s season of Big Brother, and were Big Brother 11′s seasonal sweethearts last year. I know from last year on Big Brother that I’m sure Jeff will be a decent racer, I’m just not sure about what Jordan can do for their team on the race. I expect more from Jordan than Caite, though.Also, they are sixth & seventh racers to come from a former Reality show. Rob/Amber, Alison TAR5, Britney Rogers TAR8, Greg TAR7 were previous ones.

Louie & Michael - They are friends & detectives from Providence, Rhoda Island. Okay, it’s very unusual to expect two teams to come from the US.’s smallest state. As undercover detectives I’m sure they’ll be excellent in finding out what destination they need to get to, so that’s a plus. Other than that, we’ll see.

Monique/Shawne – They are African-American women who are moms and attorneys from different states, but went to college together. They look like they’re very independent and intelligent women, so that’s a plus for me. It’s finally nice to see another independent mom team again.

Steve & Allison – This duo are father & daughter from Encinitas, California. Steve is a baseball coach of the Cleveland Indians, who was also the winning coach of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2008. Alison, who also goes by Allie seems to be a Phil fan, since she wants to trade places with him. Don’t worry, don’t we all want to travel the world in a Reality Show and get paid for it?

There’s the next eleven teams of Racers. I’ll be blogging about them after Feb. 14th.

The fourth episode of American Idol 9 was the Orlando, FL Auditions. Orlando is home of Disney and where dreams come true. The special guest for this audition was Kristin Chenoweth, a Broadway singer and actress who is now a star of hit show, Glee. So let’s start with the auditions, in which is was better than Chicago, but just as short, since it was an hour long program.

Theo Glinton – This guy was the first to audition, and he’s seen wearing a horrifying and embarrassing cape with glitter all over his face. When Simon asks him where he sees himself in ten years, this guy begins talking about opening up salons, which has nothing to do with a music career. When he started screaming, he sang very loud and was actually screaming a whole lot. Kara says he was over the top and Randy tells him to lose the cape. He was rejected by the judges.

Seth Rollins – This guy is a father who’s oldest son is diagnosed with Autism. When he sang a Frank Sinatra song, it to me sounded very R&B like. The judges, or one of the judges, I forgot who say he was just a bit bland. Simon and Kristin say he picked a good, original song. With four votes to yes, he goes to Hollywood.

Jermaine Purifoy – This guy auditioned for Season seven, and when he sang, he sang good, having a nice voice. Kristin says he was pure and Rnady says he was the best audition so far. He gets put through to Hollywood with four votes to yes.

Shelby Dressel – She’s a waitress who just graduated high school. She started singing very good, and when she choked, she ended up cursing doing so. The judges say she needs to work on being nervous and all four of the judges put her through to Hollywood anyways.

As of day one, there were eighteen successful hopefuls who will be going to Hollywood. For day two of the auditions, Kristin Chenoweth has left due to her busy schedule in New York.

Jay Stone – This guy was a major disappointment and irritation when she goes into the room, and doesn’t sing, he makes beats with his mouth covered by his hands with no real English words whatsoever. I think Kara was dumb for saying yes to this guy, and Randy was just as dumb being his second vote through to Hollywood. Only Simon realized this is a singing competition, not a mouth-covered-by-hands beat competition, or whatever it’s really called.

Cornelius Edwards – A guy who starts singing, and singing not so good, I may add, began acting like a joke when he does a split. His pants end up getting ripped. It appears the judges were taking entertainment into consideration rather than singing once again, since he gets three votes to Hollywood. So, that makes two entertainers who aren’t really potential artists going to Hollywood this episode.

Bernadette & Amanda Desimond – Sisters who have a salon in their house, just like the other girl from Chicago. They both take turns singing, and I felt that on girl, I believe Bernadette sang better than her sister Amanda. Simon says yes to Bernadette and no to Amanda, but Kara and Randy already said yes to both of them, so they’re both going to Hollywood.

Jarrod Norrell – To me, this guys sang Amazing grace like a swarm of angry and busy bees. Kara says he sounds like a lawn mower and asks Jarrod if he really thinks he can really sing. He refused to leave the audition room, and began singing Amazing Grace again. The security intervened and carried this guy out of the whole area.

Matt Lawrence – This guy is a guy who at the age of fifteen robbed a bank with a Bebe gun. This guy says that American Idol could be his way of redemption. He sing as song called Trouble (ironic?). To me he sounded okay, basically because Country is how we sounded and that’s not where my taste in music goes. However, Simon says he was brilliant, sounding like he wrote the song himself and says he was authentic. He makes it through to Hollywood with four votes yes.

A total of 31 auditioners made it through to Hollywood. Out of four audition episodes right now, there’s been an even total of 100 successful hopefuls making it through to Hollywood.

I thought the auditions were okay, with more than what we saw from Chicago, I just don’t think there’s a stand out. Two of the successful hopefuls deferentially did not deserve to go to Hollywood. My favorite this episode was either Bernadette Desimond, Jermaine Purifoy, or Seth Rollins equally, but I still feel I’m keeping the same top five best auditioners. Here is a LLNMD List of Chicago & Orlando auditioners.

Love: John Park

Like: Katelyn Epperly, Angela Martin, Paige D., Seth Rollins, Jermaine Purifoy, Bernadette Desimond

Neutral: Charity Vance, Shelby Dressel

Meh: Amanda Desimond, Matt Lawrence

Dislike: Jay Stone, Cornelius Edwards

for today.. the most awaited fight was aired in primetime and i am sure this will be a hit on ratings.

The resback attackers went on a plan after Tom had voluntarily exit the house. Kenny came right after it and replaced him. Ex-housemates entered House A in the order of  Rica/Cathy, Yuri/Patrick, and Princess/Rob in a bid to test the housemates’ emotions and mental stability. The housemates thought the visitors were trying to put down their guard so someone else could sneak in and destroy the towers. Princess, who brought her own egg, created the biggest scene among the seven ex-housemates as she tried to hit the domino towers and almost came to blows with Mariel. But before that, let me discuss the first pair, cathy and rica. it was an unexpected visit from the two of them (especially to hermes and johan for cathy.) Cathy had a plan to talk and used the two guys for them to sneak and destroy the tower. But because of the pressure and the unexplained happenings, johan and hermes chose not to talk to cathy even cathy is badly asking for it,even for just a minute. (lol, poor cathy, no one wants to talk to her.) hermes said that he would choose to talk to cathy in the outside world while johan remained silent. their entrance were being watched by the ex housemates on house B. it was a hot confrontation to cathy johan and hermes. i was expecting hot comments from rica,but it seems that she played as a fake visitor instead. because no one wants to talk to them, they chose to go back to house B. next pair was yuri and patrick. their plan was to pretend that they dont know everything and acted that they were happy seeing them again and re entering the house. but it seems that their act was unbelievable for the housemates. Mariel, who happened to be the closest friend of yuri did not talk to her. (even just a “HI”).

because it seemed that they were not entertained, they also returned to house b as another failure.

If the preceding walk-ins of ex-housemates Delio, Cathy, Rica, Patrick and Yuri weren’t successful in swaying the housemates to the desired outcome of the resbak attackers’ planned psychological warfare, then the last visit from Rob and Princess did the trick. And with what happened, Big Brother might just have gotten more than what he bargained for. third and last  but definitely the most exciting pair of ex housemates who entered house A was princess and Rob. they brought up the plan that they would have a dirty and bad confrontation with the housemates!.

Serious with their given task, Princess and Rob entered the house prepared to juice out the real temperaments of the housemates. But the latter were already subdued with all the disturbance sporadically peppered on them so in result, they did not handle the visit very well. Especially that Princess, making Rob look like Mr. Nicest Guy, did not hold anything back.

Once started, Princess couldn’t help but raged on into full bitch mode. She started picking on the housemates, citing them the not-so-nice things they said about their fellow housemates during nominations. This fired Mariel up enough that she told tell Princess to leave the house already. Only encouraged, the latter strongly rebutted with, “Baka ikaw ang gustong umalis – bahay mo ‘to? (Maybe you’re the one who wants to leave – is this your house?)” and continued swinging around and annoying the housemates by the pool.

princess vs mariel cat fight

The little exchange only turned into a bigger cat fight when Mariel kept on yelling at Princess and Rob to leave as they were not welcome in the house. This was only greeted with Princess’s spiteful words, “Do you think you’re welcome here – or anywhere?” The rest of the housemates knew then that the confrontation was getting messy thus the boys – Paul Jake, Hermes and Johan – intervened.

But Princess was unstoppable that not even Rob, her fellow resbak attacker, could overtake. She continued raging Mariel, who was the most affected amongst the housemates. She taunted with, “You think you’re deserving to be a housemate?” to which Mariel daringly replied with, “Well, at least, I’m still a housemate – deserving or not!” That gained cheers and applause from the rest of the resbak attackers, who were watching through the plasma TV in House B’s living room.

More so, even though she was manned by Paul Jake, Princess got to throw eggs to the twin towers of dominoes guarded by Tibo in the middle of the pool. This scene totally tipped Mariel over to the edge and yanked Princess by the arm to get her away from the pool and make her leave the house. In defense, Princess punched her on the right shoulder which resulted to a more chaotic atmosphere for the housemates. That was when Paul Jake begged for Rob and Princess to leave because they didn’t know anymore how to handle them.

When the two left, the housemates discussed the recent events and were confuzzled about what task Big Brother truly was giving them: was it to measure their views on the importance of money or was it to gauge their desire on winning the victory?

and yes! it was really a big hit! Lol

here’s the video and kindly asked me for the clarifications.

PRINCESS – MARIEL FIGHT

wooh! this was the first time for pbb to have a physical fight (but it was a task by big brother for the ex housemates.)

that’ s for today.

Tomorrow’s episode will be about the exciting 1st game the housemates and ex housemates done face to face. and tomorrow, kenny (the one who replaced tom) was able to hit the tower(the one on left, because they made two towers). i will further elaborate and discussed it together with Day 108. (probably, on 01-23-10 post)

tomorow and friday episode will be posted on friday night. Thanks for reading!(–,)

Hi guys,

with a one-day delay, here is my review of Live Show, which in my opinion was one of the most boring ever just because there was no real structure in it.

Here are the two main events of Live Show:

Nominations and Fake Eviction:

The girls in the Secret House had to nominate among themselves. The one with the most nominations would be fake evicted (unknown to the housemates). Pisei got nominated unanimously and was fake evicted. She then moved to the Main House. During the next week all housemates in the Secret House will get the chance to get to the Main House by losing their own mini task (which they don’t know they were told that they would be evicted.) In the aftermath of Pisei’s entrance, Pisei actually bitched about the other girls in the Secret House. I really see a storm coming over her.

New housemates and Fake Date:

As the last housemate of the Secret House, Eva got to date her fake partner which was played by the new housemates Klaus. It turned out to be very funny. Because it was dark in the Dating Room, Eva couldn’t find her way to the chair which looked really hilarious and was fun to watch. During the date, Eva und Klaus were asked for a dance. Eva then asked Klaus if he was naked. (dead funny, because sex is currently one of the main topics in the house and Eva is not the most sex-enthusiastic person in there. She didn’t know that Klaus was wearing a topless shirt.) In the end, the housemates in the Secret House chose the real Klaus (which was dated by Cora on Sunday) as their new fellow housemate. After his entrance, Klaus confessed that he was actually playing all dating partners. The housemates were really surprised and were rewarded with a party afterwards.

As I previously said, this Live Show was boring even though Sunday’s highlights were shown and the two main events only lasted 45 minutes of the show which was 135 minutes long. So the criticism about the live shows seems to be overheard by the producers.
So see you on Sunday for the weekly review,

This is a news story about one of the Survivors of Survivor USA, I am just posting the news to  you guys. This is also my 100th post here on the blog, and it’s going to be about  Jenn Lyon, the fourth place contestant on Survivor: Palau (season 10) who has lost her batle with Cancer and passed away yesterday. This is indeed sad, and I feel sorry for all the survivors she got close to, her friends and family, and Austin Carty (Survivor: Panama) who was her boyfriend. I’m not sure if they were together before she died, but they were together during her time having a cancer battle.

Out of 301 Survivors we had seen on Survivor US, Jenn is the first American Survivor to pass away. She died at the age of 37, which coincidentally, Day 37 was the day she was voted off Survivor 10: Palau. I’m sure a lot of Survivor fans are upset, as we would’ve been upset at any of the others dying as well. I remember Jenn as one of the sweetest Survivors, as she was extremely well liked by a lot of the people in her Koror tribe. She was especially close to Gregg Carey. I remember her boldest strategy was to first get either Tom or Ian out, in which at the final six, it was Her, Gregg, and Caryn on board to vote for I believe Tom, but Katie wasn’t interested in flipping her vote. At final four, Jenn got Tom, who was being targeted by Ian to team up to vote Ian, which was Jenn’s best shot to survive against The Tom/Ian/Katie alliance. Jenn was in a tie with Ian in which she lost.

Since then, I believe Jenn has dated Austin Carty, from Survivor:Panama as I said before, and she has been battling cancer most of her post-survivor time. Again, this is a very sad thing to hear. Here is a link to a Reality Blurred article about her passing away, along with a video I found on you tube via the article in loving memory of Jenn’s experience on Survivor, as it features very sad music to go along with it.

American Idol’s third pit stop home of the Windy City, deep dish pizza and Barack Obama, and Abraham Lincoln. The episode starts off with rejects cursing at the cameras and some heavy-set, African-African woman mistaking American Idol  for America’s Next Top Model. The next guest judge is Canadian country artist Shania Twain, famous for her song Forever and for Always.

Katelyn Epperly- A 19 year old girl with Family Problems, as her dad left her mother. When she started singing, she was very good. Shania says she sounds unique, not like Duffy, the singer she sang from. She got four yes’s, and is through to Hollywood.

Amy Lang – A girl who is in broadway and has a huge, but awkward crush on Ryan Seacrest. When her audition began, she falls to the ground and when she gets back up, she starts singing and pops her boobs out. Shania and Kara alled it “boob-boxing”. However, Simon says she wasn’t serious, and all the judges say no.

Charity Vance – A girl who is sixteen who’s parents own a salon in their Arkansas home. Randy says she has a small but interesting voice. Simon says she was very good, and with four yes’s, she was through to Hollywood.

Angela Martin – A former top 50 contestant of AI who held AI over off over a traffic warrant. One judge says she picked a very good song, and Kara says she’s good at listening to other people’s criticism. With four yes’s, she makes it back to Hollywood.

Curley Newburn – A guy who sand very slow and pitchy. The judges were chuckling the whole time, saying he’s got a very high voice. He was rejected.

Brian Krause – A guy from Pittsburgh who got fired from something involving the military. Simon thought he was a joke, when he sang, as he was top-toeing. To me, he was the worst, and that’s sad to say, since he’s from Pittsburgh, the town I’m moving to.

Herald Davis – To me, this guy sounded meh. However, the judges say he was clearly not right for the show. After being rejected, he began crying an sobbing, as a plea to get redemption. It didn’t work, he was and remained rejected.

John Park – He is an Asian-American guy who sang very excellent and had a good-sounding deep, but flowing voice. Shania says he had a very nice tone, and lips, and was surprised by him. John was given four yes’s, and was actually the first audition-er on Day 2 to make it to Hollywood.

Paige - An asthma attack victim who, to me, sang very strong and flowing with her voice. Randy says she has pitch problems. Kara and Shania say they’re unsure about her chances among the others, but they vote yes to her anyways, as Simon says no to her. It was up to Randy who ends up saying yes, and she goes to Hollywood.

A total of thirteen auditions from American Idol in Chicago were successful. That is 18 less than in the first city, Boston. Overall, I feel that Chicago was very weak. Only one guy stands out t0 me, and that is John Park. Angels would be second best to me, and Katelyn Epperly, Charity Vance, and Paige are about equally neutral. The other eight didn’t get introduced to us. My thinking is that the ones who got introduced to us are the ones who make it further in the running.

My Top 5 auditioners of three episodes:

5. Keia Johnson (Atlanta)

4. Maddy Curtis (Boston)

3. Leah Laurenti (Boston)

2. John Park (Chicago)

1. Jermaine Sellers (Atlanta)

Before I continue, this was in my opinion the BEST episode, so much has happened it was awesome!

In the morning, instead of sending in the clowns, Big Brother played STEPHANIE BECHAM’s snoring into the house, I mean haha! I loved it (and loved the fact that she laughed aswell, that’s why I like her!)

Sisqo made fun of Alex in DR by making comments that he brutally beats up everyone (e.g Breaks Stephen’s back and rips brain out of Joans)

Housemates recieved a task of having life drawing drawn, Ivana and Nicola were choosen to be “nude” but wore special outfits (bras and undies)

Vinnie got annoyed that Stephen put no effort into the task

The winner (Dane) and the two models recieved special prizes, Dane recieved a cocktail, Ivana recieved some meat, while Nicola recieved the best gift in the world, a picture of her fiancee and daughter building a snowman (though she got upset as she was not there when that happened)

Sov and Nicola faced off in the eviction vote and Nicola survived, while Sov got evicted with massive boos and took the mystery key (which to be honest serioulsy pissed me off, the key is gone and the twist is gone, well, not exactly, something hellish this time comes which I will reveal tommorow, but all I can say housemates are in one hell-uva ride.

Anyway, that’s all I can think off, see you tommorow.

I have decided to start doing Daily ratings of housemates from 1 to 9, and reasons why they are up there, so you can see what I think of the housemates.

1. Stephen (jumped as I realised how creepy and funny he is.

2. Nicola (might not be fun, but her personality complete changed what Models really are.

3. Jonas (he’s funny and a cool person)

4. Stephanie (I am starting to dislike her recently as she is becoming Vinnie’s co-partner, and becomes seriously bitchy recently

5. Sisqo (Nothing intresting about him really, though he is funny, and I kind of started to like him now, but not high enough to be on the top)

6. Dane (Boring, no comment

7. Alex (Same as Dane, nothing intresting and got annoyed how he and Stephen got close (Stephen managed to convert Alex to Christinanity )

8. Ivana (I don’t like her at all and I think she is trying to be funny, but she ain’t super-duper annoying YET)

9. Vinnie (I hate the guy, he’s rarely funny, and all he does is manipulate people, argue if something doesn’t go right (he argued today that Stephen put no effort, I mean what the hell do you care!?) I really don’t see what people like in him.

one word.    …     EXCITING!

supposedly, i was going to post my update about pbb for tomorrow(which discusses about day 107 and 108 respectively) but because of the actions and exciting happenings inside the house that was featured on today’s episode, i cant help but to share it with you guys.

For the weekly task of the remaining housemates, it seems to be easy and fun at the first look. but what will it make so exciting and too harsh is because of the ex housemates. For this week, they were instructed by Big Brother to build a tower of dominoes in the middle of the pool and they have to maintained it standing through out the week. In addition, Big Brother told them that this week’s prize is not only their weekly budget but also their pot money (reserved for the Big 4). Together with this is a “taking care” of colored eggs on which each housemate has to protect two eggs worth 20,000 pesos each. The eggs should be always visible to Big Brother’s eye and they are only allowed to pass it to another housemate if there is a necessary thing to do. (like taking care of the tower).

sounds easy?..but wait, if the housemates’ task is to protect their tower and the eggs, probably, the tasks of the ex housemates are totally opposite to it. the ex housemates should destroy the tower at all cost, and should grab the eggs! (with the help and support of Big Brother).

as you can see, Big Brother provided the things needed by the ex housemates to ruin the weekly task.

Another help from Big Brother was the timely monitor to the housemates on their reactions whenever a attack happens. (unfair for the part of the housemates, but it gives more exciting as it is.)

But don’t think the housemates got scared because they didn’t! Instead of shaking in their slippers, they put security measures all over the place such as plates on the overheads of the main doors. This was so that they would hear whenever someone tried to enter their place. This was a great idea by Tibo, but what they really should do is to be alert 24/7.

while constructing the tower, Melisa was the first one to notice that there were other housemates living right on the nest house.(HOUSE B) She shouted as “LOOK!! I JUST SAW HANDS!!!MEANING THERE IS SOMEONE OUT THERE!!”

..this situation made the ex housemates extra careful on observing the housemates on the top of the roof. As seen on the Picture. but when Melisa caught the 2nd try of look out, Rica gave them a dirty finger on which the housemates reacted on.

But again, don’t think that someone didn’t visit the housemates because somebody did! Delio, sent by his fellow attackers from House B, entered the house, saying he was there to cook Batangeñong kaldereta for them. Although suspicious about their former housemate’s intentions, they slowly opened up to Delio and told them about the recent attacks they have received from the other part of the Big Brother House. And from time to time, they would try to catch Delio to spill about his real mission but he remained to appear clueless so as not to ruin the whole plot of the resback attack.

while Jason and Melai were talking to delio, House B attacks! they throw ice water bags toward the tower and everywhere. But what did the housemates prepared for them?..well, pales of mud, mud with pees (urine) and water. they tried to attack too.the ex housemates were even have the chance to attack directly paul jake and tibo. (they were able to hit Tibo on the face and Paul Jake on his chest through the water bags.) while on the other hand, Princess was a bit of too harsh talking to Tom that made him to voluntarily exit the house. (lol! in fairness to them, they were also pressured!!). He was then replaced by Kenny, another evicted housemate, one of the Santos twins.

When delio decided to go back to house B, he talked to Big Brother that he felt guilty on what he is doing. He said that the housemates were good to him, knowing the fact that he could betray them. He instantly cried in the confession room.(me too, i was touched)

..Later on, two of the resbak attackers climbed up the roof and started pissing off the housemates in House A. Unknown to the housemates at that time, those two that yelled mean and provoking comments (such as “Tan-aw nimo na-inlab jud sa imo si Jason (Do you really think Jason’s in love with you?” to Melai and “Tiguwang na nagmamalinis (An old man who always come clean)” to Tibo) were their ex-housemates Princess and Rica.

after the exciting throwing of everything in the air, a ceasefire was announced by Big Brother because of the arrival of a celebrity HouseGuest. it was the MegaStar of the Philippines, Ms. Sharon Cuneta. Johan, refused to open the door at first and even forced to lock the gates for he thought that it was another attack. but when Big Brother said,”CEASEFIRE!!” a white flag was raised inserted into the gate.(that was MeagStar)

She brought some foods, (remember, the ex housemates ransack their foods) and a bucket of encouraging words to the housemates so that they would not lose hope in the current battle. She was also able to had a quick house tour guided of course by the housemates. (Tibo that time was still guarding the tower. i feel pity on him, he looks so haggard.) All of the housemates were tired but because of the HouseGuest they were able to gain some energy again.

the housemates are not going to sleep and are all alert for the new atack that will take place. For tomorrow, an exciting preview was shown and i am sure that all filipino fans are waiting for tomorrow!!

Princess and Rob entered House A and directly hit the tower. She had a bad conversation with mariel and to the other housemates through her direct and foul comments to each of the housemates.(i love her!!she’s just too natural!too bad!) the remarkable lines were

Mariel: “YOU’RE NOT SO NICE MAYBE YOU WANT TO GO OUT?!”

PRINCESS: “WHY ME?..MAYBE YOU?..WHY ME?..IS THIS YOUR HOUSE?”

after it, she instantly and consecutively hit the tower right in front of the housemates!! then Mariel came to her and a big fight happens!!(like an soap opera!! antagonist VS antagonist!! (lol) …it will be featured on tomorrow’s episode!!

GUYS!! HAVE A TAKE A LOOK ON THE PRINCESS – MARIEL FIGHT HERE!! HERE’S THE VIDEO !! PLEASE WATCH!!

mARIEL VS PRINCESS (RESBAK ATTACK) PART 1

that’s for today..thanks for reading!! comments are appreciated.

(–,)

I’ve decided not to summurise the highlights as nothing fascinating has happened except for the experiment Alex did with bottle, and the fact that Sisqo tortured us with his crap singing (Except for last 2 songs) which caused Big Brother to shoot yuky stuff at housemates (muahha!)

Anyway, Lady Sovereign became the third housemate to be evicted from the Big Brother house, and I gotta say I was shocked to see that the public turned on her in just 3 days! Anyway, I am glad she’s gone, Nicola might win (hopefully!)

Housemates nominated for the 3rd time, and Sisqo, Stephen and Ivana recieved the most votes and TWO of them will go on Day 20 (I belive).

Here is how every one voted

Alex : Sisqo and Dane

Dane : Ivana and Stephen

Ivana : Jonas and Stephen

Jonas :  Ivana and Sisqo

Nicola : Stephen and Ivana

Sisqo : Ivana and Alex

Stephanie : Stephen and Ivana

Stephen : Nicola and Dane

Vinnie : Sisqo and Alex

I would’ve nominated

Ivana : Her nomination reason was crap and she’s irritating

Vinnie : He’s still trying on to take the role of the main Head of House.

(suprisingly my nominations would make no diffrence )

Here is the following TOP 9 ratings of housemates

1. Nicola

2. Stephanie

3. Jonas

4. Sisqo

5. Dane

6. Stephen

7. Alex
