Yeah, Russell is pretty stupid; in a DR session, he admitted that Jessie and Nat were playing as a team and he still believe them over Michelle.

Michelle is pretty awesome and it'd be cool for her to go far in the game.

I love it, Jeff and Jordan have this whole game figured out already and everyone in the game thinks they are too slow to win it. Exactly what we have all been saying Jessie and Nasty next week.

As far as I can tell, as of this morning the vote is still 4-3 to get rid of Ronnie. And it's pretty solid. So those fucked-up producers aren't getting their way.

Kevin and Michelle have both shown some real cojones to repel the pressure from that demonic plague (Jess/Gnat/Ratboy/Producers)! Who knew? I've gotta say neither was a favourite player of mine at the beginning but they've definitely grown on me.

Pretty silly, but I thought I'd share this picture of Ratboy/Gnat/Jessie/Chimpa:

What I don't understand is the producer interferance to try and keep ronnie, when Jessie/Natalie/Ronnie/Chima/Russell have sent home Braden/Laura/Casey. The power needs to start shifting or else no one will keep watching.

Yeah the game needs to move past Jessie and Nasty running the house. I think the Producers know that if Jeff has the power Jessie is going home so they are freaking out right now. I truly think they want Jessie or nobody to win this year. They literally put all 4 feeds on the guy when he is sleeping instead of the other HGs. You want to know why there are so many fights and Lydia is acting out about cutting herself, it's because that is the only way for them to get airtime.

Producer interferance? What have they done?

I only see what's broadcast and what I read here.

I was hoping that Russel was going to be a bit smarter once he started and seemed to form an alliance with Michelle.. It's too bad he sold her out and is still letting Jessie/Nastilie run things for him.

I hope whoever gets the power puts Jessie and Nastilie up on the block so that one goes home this week.

They must think watching that team go after each other when everyone else is gone will make for some crazy tv...

^^It already has been pretty crazy tv this week.

They are calling in the HGs and telling them stuff. They told Jessie to try every angle to keep Ronnie, they told Michelle she should cry and be angry over what Russ did to her. They called Lydia in to discuss her cutting herself comments right in the middle of a big conversation where Jessie/Nat/Chima were teaming up on Kevin telling him Lydia is throwing him under the bus. Granted, Lydia had stormed off and got something from the backyard and gone to the bathroom, so she may have been preparing to cut herself, but they kept her in there until the three bullies got it across to Kevin that Lydia is not really on her side.

Those are just the moments I saw on the feeds where the HGs said what they told them in DR. I am sure there are many more. Oh, yeah they also have been calling them in asking them who they believe has the mystery power and I believe they asked some people if they thought Ronnie had it and what he will do. This of course causes a lot of paranoia in the house. Combine that with them calling Russ in all day long and then he goes around snooping on people and it seems like they planted the paranoia in Russ which is exactly what has ruined his chances in this game. The night he got Michelle to agree to a final 2 with him it seemed like they just became the couple to beat. The next morning he was crawling on the ground upstairs to listen to the other HGs talking and he was everywhere calling everyone a schemer. So it is very obvious something happened because the prior night he and Michelle had bonded and discussed private issues to build trust. There is no way Jessie and Nasty were the only ones who turned him so quickly from Michelle.

Oh Peter Parker don't cry...just go home!

I hope Russell refuses to go see Chima's HOH room. He must know he's going to be nominated and no amount of kissing ass will change that. I just want people to start acting real. I think it's a ridiculous routine of people feeling obliged to go see the new HOH room. Even Jessie said, just before entering his 2nd HOH room, something about making it an easy nomination if someone didn't come up (can't remember who). How fucking childish and ignorant is that?

Russell doesn't know it yet, but he may have made the smartest move of the game last week when he befriended Jeff. Assuming Jeff see's him as a strong ally and uses his power to save Russell.

Not quite, somebody mentioned this earlier.

"She and Russ planned the fight a night or two before. The flashbacks on jokersupdate show them in the HoH bed planning it all including the water and name calling. Russ kept saying to use it all and not hold back so they can sell it because it will be fun."

Yeah, I don't believe that...at least until there is more proof. If that were true he would have surely talked about it in his blog. He mentioned nothing of staging a fight and instead called Chima "the devil." Here's a line from his blog:

"And finally there is the "Little Devil", Chima. I have never met a more egotistical and vein individual like Chima and it is no surprise to me that she is 34 years old and still single."

No one in the house see's this, so there would be no reason to lie.

Russell is shifting with the power. He won't be that stupid to not go up to Chima's room. It looks like noms will be Lydia and Michele.

Jeff is on to Russell's game (the Michele thing hurt Russell in more ways than one), but Jessie and Natalie are bigger threats b/c Russell can still theoretically help Jeff in the game. Jessie and Natalie are worthless to him because he doesn't like them or trust them, and he knows no matter what they say they are targeting him. At least he mostly likes Russ. Plus, Russell's major target in Jeff's alliance is Michele. It's always best to have the major target not be you.

Lydia being up there next Thursday makes Jeff's job (thinking) easier. Because anyone he'd put up in that other chair (hopefully Jessie) would lose because Kevin, Jo, and Michelle would vote the other person out.

Jess mentioned putting up Jeff and Jo as noms and that would make for some great tv. All Jeff would have to do is make sure that the POV winner didn't use their power (and only Michelle would) and then wait while Chima, Jessie, and Nat enjoy themselves only to have Jeff remove both him and Jordan live on Thursday and put up Lydia and Jessie (or Nat if Jess wins POV) and boom!

Jess or Nat spend a week thinking life is perfect and in an instant one of them is gone.

Jessie is not happy at all right now. He knows his goose his probably cooked. Honestly, he has a right to be pissed. It's a BS twist. Then again so was the rigging of his being in the house as HOH on the most dominate team in week 1.

In his weekly BB blog this week, Eric Stein wrote a what if scenario if Laura or Braden had managed to hang on and Jess had come back as the first HOH. Natalie and Russell go up. Braden doesn't get into fights and use race bating language. Ronnie sucks up big time to Jordan and Jess (who would probably be fast friends). It's a completely different game.

IT's not a BS twist.. maybe if he was more likeable he would get America's votes.

America voted the most likeable person in there (other than Jordan).

I just don't like the American public basically getting to decide who goes home. It messes with the game aspect of it. The diary room is supposed to be your sanctuary where you can say what's really on your mind. That why I had a big problem with BB8.

That having been said it appears to be working in my favor this time around so I guess I can live with it.

More proof than video of them describing what they will say and do? Seriously, there are more reasons than just game play for them to have staged a fight. Chima wants to host a tv show and the only people who get airtime in this house is Jess and Nat. There is no more proof needed, they said on video that they were going to do it, then they did it exactly how they said they would. Chima even took the time to go ask DR if she would get kicked out if she dumped water on him, which is exactly what she described doing up in the HoH room when they planned this. Also, immediately Jordan thought it was staged because Russ winked and smiled at Chima on his way to DR after the fight.

As for Lydia, no way she stays on the block. Jeff isn't stupid and unless Jessie or Nat. win POV they will both be on the block. It's a shame that Chima and Russ didn't really get in a fight because if she put him up and Jeff saved Russ it would solidify Russ with Jeff, Jordan and Michelle.

The interesting thing about the power is that Chima, as HoH, does not have a vote and Jeff gets to vote in the case of a tie. There can't be a tie though because Chima can't vote. So if the noms are Jess and Nat., Jess will go home for sure.

I'm worried about Jeff. He's already hinting to Jordan that he has the Power. Tonight, when she was on the Elliptical, he says, "unless something else big happens." She looks at him with a sly grin but says nothing.

No need to be worried. Unless he comes out and says he has it front of the entire house and the housemates talk about him announcing it all week, they will not take the power from him. The producers are using the coup d'etat to stir things up and try to make good television. They aren't going to get rid of their idea. They don't care if the rules are followed strictly, they just want good television.

As for tonights show, Chima is pathetic. She is using her new found HOH power to pressure Russell into saying he likes her. She is asking him why he would question her motives and what has he said about his feeling towards her to others. She knows he can't come out and say he doesn't like her, because she is in power. She is a true, as they say in the UK, bunny boiler.

Russell had the most unintentionally funny line tonight: "Jeff uses that self-defecating humor really well."

Both BBAD and the feeds are worthless tonight. The feeds are all on Jessie almost all night and BBAD didn't leave the HoH room once I think.

The Russ/Chima convo, all I can say is airtime. Now they supposedly hugged and made up when earlier today if she won he was gone period. Even Michelle just now is telling Chima that the fight was over the top trying to imply she didn't know if it was real.

Lydia, you are a fool.

That was a call back to a previous time when that word was used in the same incorrect way. It was intentional.
