I think you spelled one of those words wrong.

As much as I did not like Natalie personally I thought she played the game masterfully. She instigated fights all season and then tricked Jeff into taking out Russell. Her only flaw was never owning up to her lies and not realizing the social aspect enough to realize the negative consquences her behaivor would yield in front of a jury.


I think far too much credit is given to players for "winning comps". People like Michelle,Jessie,Jeff and Russell played infinitely worse games than Jordan or Natalie but are precieved as better players by most fans because of their ability to win comps.

Her lies were stupid that made no sense, and she didn't do the right things to try and cover them, such as drinking in the house. Her holier than thou attitude that she was one of the good people. Her gameplay was to swing from Jessie's Nutsack then Jeff's, and her zero sense of humor in the game was why I hated her so much. I am glad the season's over, hopefully we will never have to see her on tv again

I agree about her being shrill and unlikeable but she manipulated and used Jessie and Jeff to make moves that benefited her and put a target squarely on their back.

It was never shown on tv but on the feeds we found out Casey knew Jessie outside the house and would have been loyal to him. She manipulated the inner dynamics of her alliance to target the person from the other alliance who likely would have been had her as target #1. If Jessie was really in control early that boot makes 0 sense.

That was the 1 thing I never understood is she knew how to placate the egos of unintelligent players like Jessie and Jeff into doing her bidding yet she did not proceed to continue stroking their ego for a vote. Jessie is the most self absorbed person to ever be casted on BB so I am surprised she didn't see that not crediting him with everything because his ego was fragile cost her his vote.

Any updates on these people?

I think they're all still alive!

Most of them spent last weekend partying in Vegas with their fellow cast members and ones from other seasons.

Natalie (and maybe Kevin) was the only person that didn't go and is in hiding. She claims to still think Michele is the devil and won't be invited to her wedding.

Jeff and Jordan have been together pretty much non-stop since the show ended. They spent the entire week together in LA. They were on the Bonnie Hunt Show, they taped an appearance on the Bold and the Beautiful, and they're planning to both go home (Chicago, N. Carolina) tomorrow.

Jordan still can't tell time, but she has learned to use twitter.

Jessie and Lydia went to Disneyland together.

Michele just got back to her home today and, I imagine, will get back to her real life next week.

Thanks.

Whew, the finale was just in the nick of time!

Maybe she can disappear like Chima, and never show her face on tv again. Maybe she is finally realizing what a bitch she was on tv.

Interesting news...I guess Michele and her husband have separated.

Now she can stalk Jeff and Jordan in Hawaii.

Blocked at work...can you cut and paste?

Jeff and Jordan started filming the next season of "The Amazing Race" starting today (11/28). Per the internet spies that follow the show this is not an All-Star or Celebrity Edition "TAR" but a regular "TAR" in which Team Gucci are competing as regular civilians. Check Joker's Updates (link above) for a press release and a twitter pic of the love birds at the airport.

I'm wondering if this is for the winter edition that we've heard nothing about?

Sweet! Can't wait. I know who I am rooting for already. Go Team Technotronics!

Have to say I'm surprised. Given how much unsuccessful work the Eric & Jessica fans put in a few years ago (there was a systematic and organized campaign including thousands of charity stuffed animals (woobies) sent to Amazing Race headquarters) I figured the Amazing Race was probably done with this type of stunt casting. Eric never did release their Amazing Race audition video. Supposedly, it was quite funny.

Also, the "Winelle" fans did a lot of work after BB Allstars (though I don't know if Will and Janelle would have gone on to the Race together anyway).

I grew kind of sour on Jeff and Jordan so I can't say I'll really be rooting for them. She's already won money anyway.

I wondered if, because they announced it SO soon, they would milk their being a couple to make ever last cent off their 15 minutes. I wouldn't blame them for putting on a bit of an act for all the benefits that would come with it. I don't know that they're putting on an act, just something I thought of when I knew if they did "get together" it would be of great benefit to both.

I will root for them, but they'll never do better than Rob and Amber. Who should have won their season if not, I believe, for CBS meddling and getting the plane back to gate so they'd have a finale with drama.

mwbmis

This is kind of sad. I liked her last summer, but CLEARLY she has some major issues. She had a real job in the real world, and now she's doing this.

I was just about to post this in the season 12 thread. Can't wait to DL some torrents of her f-ing. Not happy to hear about her plastic surgery though.

boc4ever

I don't know whether to thank you or condemn you for sharing this. I don't think I would have imagined this would have been the direction her career went in. Couldn't agree more about the issues.
