After 71 days of fun, drama, fights and twists, Big Brother 10 is now officially over with Dan claiming all 7 jury votes to win one of the best Big Brother seasons yet. The night started off with a well rounded recap of the entire summer. With Brian and his friends leaving first things looked bleak for Dan and Memphis, his two remaining friends, but when their alliance was born it ruled the entire game. Dan and Memphis worked everyone until the very end and that’s why that sat in the finals. Both played off of each other, keeping each other safe yet still playing for themselves. It all came down to the seven votes and the seven people they helped evict.
At the jury house everyone had an opinion on who they wanted to see. Libra wanted Jerry out but Renny didn’t even want to think of looking at him. Keesha wanted Memphis in the jury, for obvious reasons, while was very adamant about wanting Dan out. When Jerry walked through the door everyone was talking about him. Well rather bashing him. He didn’t catch the discussion though but most gave him a cold shoulder as they weren’t too thrilled he was back in their lives. All the girls on the jury had a very strong opinion on who should win. April battled for Memphis to win the money, simply because she hated that Dan got not only her but her boyfriend Ollie out as well. Keesha, Libra and Renny stuck to their guns for Dan and continually bashed Memphis. Renny said that Memphis didn’t play the game and she was in no way going to give him her vote. April basically said the same for Dan and continued on with her delusional self. Jerry seemed still upset with Dan but didn’t really give much of a reason. Michelle stayed rather quiet, other then telling Jerry about her trip with Dan. Ollie of course said hardly anything.
Read the rest and discuss with fellow fans!

Big Brother is known for its sudden change in power and tonight is no different. Following the Power of Veto ceremony both Steven and Dan realized that one of them would surely be going home. Both took a different approach to stay with Dan staying quiet and Steven pushing people to vote in his corner. Steven made the first move by asking one side of the house to keep him in the game. That side just happened to be the one aligned with Keesha and it almost seemed like they were swinging is way and could vote for Steven to stay. Dan, on the other hand, stood with Jessie and Michelle and told both of them to let him know if he should start campaigning.
It was obvious that the house was now divided into three sections. The first is Libra, April, Ollie and Keesha hanging on by a thread. They are act like they are tight but there are cracks that have formed as the three girls can’t stand each other. The other side is more solidified being Angie, Michelle, Memphis and Jessie. While outside Angie let Memphis know she can’t stand Libra and April and it’s obvious there is about to be a battle between the two groups. Last by not least are the floaters who really have no loyalty to anyone at the moment. Renny, Jerry and Dan as of now have no set alliance and could really be the swing vote for the rest of the game. Winning HoH for one of them would surely pull them to a side and I await that to happen.
When it came time for Julie to pop up she had a few interesting questions for the houseguests. I’m really liking the live shows this year as Julie is doing a great job and this time around the live audience added much more to the show. After bringing up the Jerry/Libra fight, Julie turned to Ollie and April who were visibly nervous about talking about their “romance”. If you’ve been following the feeds you would know they’ve gotten very “close” and I think the producers wanted some chatter on that. But to their dismay neither April or Ollie revealed their actions to the house or the world but they did hint at least!
The first family package was then shown as the Renny and Jessie fight was brought up again. Both of their families were asked about not only their loved ones but how they saw their enemy as well. Renny’s family were very happy for their mom and also very against Jessie. Renny’s son continuously called Jessie a weasel but Jessie’s mother disagreed. She felt her son was great on the show and much more then a body, like he always says. It was interesting to see how the families took sides and for once stuck with their loved ones in the house. In previous seasons we’ve seen family members turn against their loved ones but this year it is a nice change of pace!
After a quick chat with Jessie it was time for Dan and Steven to give their possible final words. Dan was rather quick and basically said Sharon’s famous words, that if it was his time to go it was his time to go. Steven took a completely different route though, like he’s promised all week, and pulled a more humorous “Chelsia”. He quoted some fun sayings from the house and basically told everyone to “suck it” but in a more funny way. It was good to see the houseguests have fun on eviction night rather then blast out of the house in anger like some have in the past. When all the votes were cast it was unanimous for Steven to leave the house with a 9 to 0 vote. Not even his good friend Keesha could throw him a pity vote and he was out the door.
For the HoH competition the houseguests were treated to some scare tactics as aliens appeared several times behind the mirrors. April, Renny and Jessie saw the crazy ET like creatures and seemed more in shock then scared. Of course it was just a rubber alien with a green light shining on it but still rather humorous. The HoH wasn’t based on the alien sightings though but rather what they “abducted”. Several things were removed from the house and it was the houseguests job to remember which room and which items were removed.
To begin the challenge were Dan and April who were chosen as random. Dan buzzed in first and with a correct guess knocked April out of the HoH and chose Libra and Renny to compete next. With a wrong answer Renny took herself out and allowed Libra to choose Memphis and Angie to compete for the third question. After getting the answer right Memphis knocked out Angie and chose Keesha and Michelle to compete. Michelle took herself out and Keesha chose Libra and Dan. Libra made it through again taking out Dan, giving Keesha and Memphis a shot at the next question. Getting her first question right, Keesha took Memphis out of the game and forced Ollie and Libra to compete. Libra continued her streak and took out Ollie, pitting the final challenge for the HoH between herself and Keesha. After getting her last question wrong, Libra handed over the HoH to Keesha. This should be a VERY interesting week since Keesha is on the fence with her current alliance. Will she turn on the girls and Ollie or will she do their dirty work? Stay tuned to find out!

Last time on Big Brother 10 Brian’s two boys Dan and Steven were nominated. On the latest episode we see not only the aftermath of the nominations but the aftermath of the food competition as well. Immediately after the nominations were made Dan asked Jessie to talk up in the HoH bedroom. There they agreed on why Dan went up and both still feel that they should stick together if Dan does stay. On the other end Steven does have supporters even if they are scared to say they are. Angie and Keesha came to his side to let him know that he can still stay in the game and both seemed like they would veto him if they won.
Following the chat between Steven and Angie we finally got to see the birth of the current alliance ruling both the HoH and the veto. While Jessie and Michelle flirted, Memphis came up with a plan to secure Jessie and himself two more players for their group. They both decided that Michelle and Angie should join their alliance, giving them a core of four. Of course this happened awhile ago but CBS is just beginning to let is unravel.
Steven’s trial to stay is an interesting one as he’s playing somewhat of a Brian role in opposite. He’s trying to get people upset for him leaving and tried to find friends that would fall into his “poor me” trap. First up was Renny who he used the Hurricane Katrina bond with. They both talked about what they went through and although it may not have secured a vote with Renny it surely didn’t hurt. Next up was Keesha who flat out said that she didn’t want Steven to go. Thanks to that she told him that if she did win the veto that she would take him off, something she would deny a little later.
When it finally did come time for the Power of Veto choosing the six who were competing were Jessie, Michelle, Dan, Libra, Steven and of course Keesha. Before the challenge began Keesha let is slip to her gal pals that she would probably veto Steven if she won the PoV. Michelle was in the room when that went down and she immediately went to Memphis and Jessie to let them know. This turned the group against Keesha and it almost seemed like if the veto was used Keesha could go up. Although Michelle pushed the issue Libra would get the blame a little later.
For the Power of Veto the six players had to decipher Big Brother phrases spelled out in license plate slang. If they got the phrase right they would gain whatever points it was worth, if they were wrong they would be out of the challenge. During the first phrase given both Dan and Jessie were taken out for wrong answers. Keesha finally scooped up the correct answering, giving her a quick 10 points. For the next phrase Steven buzzed in early and took himself out, taking the two nominees and the HoH out. Michelle then answered correctly, tying it up with Keesha. For the third phrase the three girls weren’t playing for points but rather a slop pass. If they did take the pass they would be out of the competition and no longer able to win the veto. Although Libra and Keesha have been on slop for two weeks now, neither took the slop pass. This put a thought in Libra’s head that Keesha was in deed going to veto Steven if she won and that’s the reason she stayed in the game. For the fourth, and last, phrase both Libra and Keesha answered incorrectly which gave the last person standing, Michelle, the win of the veto.
Following the Power of Veto competition everyone started talking about Keesha wanting to veto Steven. When Libra, Steven and Keesha were in the 70s room together Keesha mentioned to Steven that she felt bad since she took his life away. Libra then went outside to let the others know what was said and Steven wasn’t too happy either. He didn’t want Keesha saying that in front of others and told her that Libra was saying things on the bench of the challenge about Keesha trying to save Steven. Keesha didn’t like what she was hearing so went out to confront Libra who denied saying anything at all. This turned Keesha against Libra who she called a “liar” and “shit starter” and ultimately would create the massive fight that went down between Libra, Renny and Jerry.
While Renny and Jerry were sitting in the sauna room, Keesha began bashing Libra. The two others agreed that Libra had to go and Renny let it slip that Libra wasn’t happy with having the two older people on her team for the food comp. Jerry didn’t like that too much and the next morning he let Libra have it. Although I said the last fight in the house between Keesha and April was bad this one was even worse. Libra went off as well as Jerry and Renny ended up joining the fray a little later. In the end it was one crazy fight over nothing really and made Libra look like the bad guy. In my eyes it was Keesha as she’s the one spreading the rumors about Libra. Guess that’s what happens when the houseguests can’t watch the feeds like we can!
Since he knew he was probably going Steven made a move to save himself by asking Jessie and Michelle to veto either himself or Dan. He wanted them to put Libra up in his place or Dan’s place since he felt that everyone would vote Libra out. I caught this entire conversation on the feeds the other day and have it posted at http://youtube.com/bigbrotherloop. If you want to see the unedited version then check it out, it gets rather interesting since they didn’t show Dan’s side of the conversation on the show at all.
When it was finally time for the Power of Veto ceremony we quickly learned that Michelle wasn’t using the veto. From the feeds we saw that she didn’t trust Steven’s word about people wanting Renny out and didn’t feel she had a reason to put her up in any way, shape or form. I’m not sure exactly how the vote will go tomorrow but I’m excited to see who wins the HoH. A shake up in the power would be nice and if the challenge goes the right way we could be in for another week of craziness!

After last weeks eviction of Brian I wasn’t sure how Jessie’s nominations would go down but tonight proved that being friends with Brian means you’re a huge threat apparently. Following his eviction several houseguests had some words to say. Dan, Angie and Steven were upset to see him go and feel their fun was taken away. Libra on the other hand was glad he was gone as she considered Brian her “biggest threat” while Jessie was glad he was gone as well. He also made a comment about his picture looking better in black or white. So original….. not.
At the diner table Jerry let everyone know what Julie and he talked about. He told them how she brought up him breaking his work with Brian even though he used his military word to say they were aligned. Nobody liked that, including Dan, who said that Jerry broke his word no matter what excuse he came up with. Renny then made a comment how he shouldn’t use his military in the game which caused a little tiff. Jerry let her know that she doesn’t listen and walked away before anything could come from it.
Following his win for the HoH Jessie let everyone know just how exciting he was. He was very cocky in the backyard after winning and made it obvious how the house split. Dan, Angie and Steven gathered on one side of the backyard while the others on another side. When they were finally back in Jessie and Memphis celebrated the win together, proving that they are aligned. They both then jumped up and down with Michelle while Angie walked in. Nobody was happy with how Jessie acted, especially the “We Love Brian” group.
Once again Libra wanted to sway the HoH and talked to April about getting Jessie to put Steven and Angie or Steven and Dan up. When Jessie got his key for his room everyone, besides Steven, went up to see it. Jessie had a ton of bodybuilding pictures in his room and hardly any of family or friends. I know he doesn’t decide what pictures to put but seriously, he doesn’t want people to see his body as a threat yet goes ga-ga over pictures of his body…… yeah. When everyone left Libra and her posse told Jessie that Steven and Dan had to go up. She used the fact that Steven didn’t come up to the room as a reason but Jessie wanted Renny up. They told him it would be a waste of a nomination but he still wanted her up. I’m not sure how they can use the “waste of a nomination” idea since if she is a waste now when won’t she be?
Before the food competition we were shown a few moments from within the house. First Jerry let both Angie and Libra know about his wife having parkinson’s. They both cried and he told the whole story how he worked out to make sure he could take care of her. Next up was Steven who was asked a few questions about being gay by Dan. The two seem to have been friends since moving in and Dan now realizes how much he is learning just from being in the house. Last but not least was a small moment with Jessie yelling at Angie for being friends with Brian. He told her that he can’t trust her since she was friends with the person who wanted their alliance out. It’s funny how they are bringing up an alliance (Jessie/Memphis/Angie/Michelle) that really wasn’t shown on the show but more on the feeds. Angie sat there and took it because she really had nothing to say for herself.
At the food competition everyone had to break into two teams. Libra and April weren’t happy with being on the “old people” team with Renny and Jerry. That will boil over in the next episode I’m sure and you can find out why if you search YouTube. For food the two teams had to battle it out to fill the most wine glasses in five minutes. There were three “jobs” for the teams which were throwing, filler and corker. For the green team Steven and Angie were the corkers and for the red team it was Jerry and Memphis. The throwers were Dan for green and April for red while the fillers were Renny, Libra, Keesha for red and Jessie, Michelle and Ollie. In the end both teams filled hardly any bottles as the green team won with one and a half full. The challenge caused some drama though on the red team as Libra and April went at it since April felt it was the fillers fault they lost. Libra let them know everyone worked as a team and it was the teams fault while Keesha chimed in how well Renny did. Like I said this fight will boil over on Tuesday so make sure to stay tuned!
Following the challenge Dan tried not once but twice to talk to Jessie. The first time failed as he tried to get Jessie alone in the HoH by asking to use his bathroom. Little did he know that Ollie would follow Jessie up to it looked bad on his part actually. The second time he finally got him alone and the two talked. Dan told Jessie that he would probably be going up but that he wouldn’t be upset about it. Jessie didn’t say too much but let him know that everything would be good. At the nomination ceremony Jessie still chose to put up Dan although he did say he felt he would be good to be aligned with. He put up Steven as well, who argued he was sleeping during the HoH room tour. Whatever he said wouldn’t change the nominations of Dan and Steven as only the Power of Veto can do that. Although we already know who won it and if it was used or not we find out officially on Tuesday. Check back then for the latest or you can find out now by checking out the feeds section of BigBrotherLoop.com.
