Keesha’s Nominations Go Personal On Big Brother 10
July 27, 2008 Big Brother 10, CBS No CommentsOn the last Big Brother 10 Steven was evicted with best friend Keesha getting the HoH. I was right in my prediction that Keesha was seek revenge for Steven’s leave and oh did she ever. As we witnessed a recap of Steven walking out the door several houseguests gave their opinion of the eviction. Libra and Jessie both showed signs of happiness as their plan played out to the tee. On the other side of the fence were Angie and more notably Keesha. Both shared remorse for evicting a friend, that’s about all they have in common. The one interesting comment was made by Dan who continued his “weak player” scheme. I wasn’t happy to see Steven go but realized how well his strategy played out that he didn’t even receive a single vote.
Another recap was in store and this time it was for Keesha’s HoH win. Libra and April both jumped for joy when they realized “their girl” was in power. It’s obvious they get closer to Keesha when she can put them on the block, even though last week they secretly doubted her. Jessie and Renny were also happy for Keesha’s win but for different reasons. Jessie felt he could sway Keesha in any way he wanted while Renny was genuinely happy for her as they seemed to have formed a mother/daughter bond. The bond was so close, and became closer, after Keesha saw her HoH bedroom. Renny was the only one allowed to stay to read Keesha’s letter and the two shared a touching moment.
Sadly that moment didn’t last long as April, Libra and Ollie pounced on Keesha the first chance they got. They wanted to assure that Keesha was still part of the foursome and I think Keesha realized why they were being so nice. Although she may not fully trust them, Keesha realized she needed those four. When she told them she wouldn’t do what the house wanted they seemed to be ok with it. Keesha seemed to take the power to her head at times be saying how she held all the decisions in the house. Of course she does but making it that obvious is kind of risky in my opinion. One of the more interesting moves she made though was talking to Dan and letting him know he was safe. They didn’t really talk much before Keesha got HoH but as of now it seems they could have some sort of side deal going on.
In a move similar to Jessie last week, Keesha got cocky and decided to tell Memphis that Angie, his best friend, is going up. I was shocked she did this while Libra and April were in the room but it was her move to make. Memphis, being the good puppet he is, went and told Michelle, Jessie and Angie what Keesha’s plan was. They immediately realized that the plan to oust Dan, Renny or Jerry was out the door and made a plan to get Libra up instead. Although none of the four acted on it right away the time was about to come.
Before the food competition we were shown a few clips of Michelle being her Portuguese self. She proclaimed her love for pig everything and even told us a story about how a guy danced around with a dead pig. Little did she know she would inspire a food luxury for the next challenge which was 50s themed. In the backyard the group finally competed for a slop-free week. With the girls and guys split behind a wall, they were paired up to match socks of all things. Each round one guy and one “doll” would go onto a rotating record which housed a basket of socks. Each round the teams had to scream across the wall in hope of matching a sock with their partner. After matching they would hang the pair of socks on a number which corresponded to a random food item for the week. In the end Renny was the coo-koo of the competition, go figure, and was the only one to miss a pair with her partner Dan. The only interesting food they got for the week was pigs feet, which only Michelle celebrated for.
Following the food competition Ollie and April’s showmance was showed in a VERY PG version. They didn’t show any of the *cough* but did show them talking about love and how it correlates to road signs. While the two love birds got closer, Jessie took it upon himself to try and get his nominations for the week into the mind of Keesha. He knew Angie was going up, which Keesha told him straight out, but didn’t want that to happen. He had a very good reason too and that was getting Libra out. One thing of interest is Jessie’s new attempt for Libra going. Last week when he had the chance to do so he was too scared to make that move yet now he wants Keesha to do it for him. I’m not sure WHY she could put Libra up, knowing how close they are, so Jessie’s plan backfired right into his face.
At the nomination ceremony Keesha made it very clear that her nominations were personal. After having Michelle’s key pulled last, it was revealed that Jessie and Angie were nominated for eviction. Keesha said that Angie caused the fight a few weeks back between Keesha and April and didn’t give Steven any backup when he was on the block. Her reason for Jessie going was two things: 1) He put Steven up and he went and 2) She sees him as a threat. Overall Keesha had good reasons to put both Angie and Jessie up, even if they don’t see it that way. With that said and down, Tuesday’s episode should showcase two huge fights in the house along with the Power of Veto winner. Plus the eviction episodes now move to Thursday nights at 8pm where they belong! So stay tuned for that and more.
Last week on Paradise Hotel Tanya left the game, leaving Mikey without his girlfriend and the originals (OGs) in a state of weakness. That drama continued first thing tonight as everyone realized Tanya was gone. Mikey was hit the hardest as Myrna, his new roommate who was the same girl who sent Tanya home, locked him out of his own room. She said she was scared of what he might do or say, but that’s her own fault. The rest of the OGs weren’t happy with the decision of Tanya going either. All said that Myrna was now enemy number one and wanted her out first chance they got.
