The Big Brother HGs That Might Get In - Who Has Been "Online?"

There has been tons of speculation on which "Dynamic Duo's" will be going back into the Big Brother house for season 13.  CBS listed Six 'couples' but then yesterday Allison Grodner claims that was CBS's  selection, implying there might be other couples that could be going in, even going as far to say all they could fit on the web page was six couples.  So is there any way to figure out who ISN'T going back in?

Here are a few things to consider and my own thoughts.  In the end I really have no clue for sure who is going back but there are a few I can say aren't.

First lets take a look at the list CBS provided and talk about each.

Will/Boogie:  This one is easy because yesterday Will posted on his own fansite that he isn't going back in the house and that his days on competition reality shows is over.

Jessie/Natalie:  Much tougher and not a very 'popular' couple.  They were seen by most as Jessie the BB10 guy worshipped by the season 11 HGs and Natalie the coatail rider who brought nothing to the game once Jessie was gone.  I follow both on Twitter and Natalie hasn't put anything up since October so thats no help.  Jessie hasn't tweeted since June 17th so again not a lot of help.  We know Jessie would probably love to go back in the house but we also know there are a ton of Big Brother fans that would revolt if he did.  I'm not so sure about Natalie as she got married after leaving the house and has never seen to be one to love the spotlight.

Enzo/Hayden: These two are tweeting like crazy - if they are sequestered and entering the house today or tomorrow then they are either being allowed to use twitter - or they have someone doing it for them (a possibility).  I imagine they both might be willing to go back in the house - but Enzo does have a child so that might make his decision a bit tougher.

Brendon/Rachel:  I almost assume these two will be back.  Rachel is ALL about the entertainment industry (although I have yet to see her in a Vegas Ad) and Brendon doesn't really have a job.  The only thing about them is if Brendon is to be believed, they just moved to North Carolina where Brendon claims he will be doing research.  Brendon's last tweet was June 30th and Rachel's June 29th so that keeps them as strong possibilities.  I would put them down as in the house.

Dick/Danielle: This is the one I would guess will be in if it weren't for the fact that Danielle is still tweeting as of today.  The most recent tweet said, "Just got done tickle fighting w Allison Grodner. I'm getting in one way or another!"  So it could be her or someone tweeting for her.  She did 3 shows on Real with Ragan but wasn't scheduled to do any once the season began which is a BIG indicator to me (Ragan continues on solo for the season).  Dick's last comments were on June 30th asking what people thought of the cast and the last one being, "Let the shit talking begin..." (dot dot dot implies a LOT to me).  If I had to bet I would say they are in.

Jeff/Jordan: America would LOVE to see this 'couple' back in the house.  And if Brendon/Rachel and Dick/Danielle get in you need a little sappyness to offset the anger and meaness the other two couples bring.  Jeff hasn't had a 'real' job since BB and has done two stints of an online around the world show for CBS - they both visited the show last season - so why wouldn't they come back?  Jeff's last 'tweet' was June 29th and Jordan's was back in April so no online activity from either to indicate they are out and about.  Thats my 3rd couple in the house if I had to bet.

So you think Allison was honest when she said CBS could only fit six couples?  Maybe - but the three that I think are going in are on that page.  Allison tossed out a few other names but many, Marcelleas and Amy for example, are still active online today (even joking about it).  I think maybe Allison would have preferrd if they listed 10 couples but CBS said only room for six.

I think we'll see the three couples I mentioned and that works out to a total of 14 houseguests (8 + 6) and thats how many spaces are on this season's memory wall.  My guess is they eight new ones will enter the house first (Saturday or Sunday), possibly even spend the first night alone, and then be joined by the others the next day in a 'shocking twist.'

If you want to 'follow' any of the former HGs (and even a couple of the new ones) I have a list I maintain on my twitter account.  Just go to http://twitter.com/#!/BBGossip/big-brother-hgs/members and you can add any you like.  Some of them have to approve you to follow them.  I don't actually follow them all myself but I can check their tweets by going to that page to get to them.

POV Players Have Been Chosen

The POV players have been drawn! Competing against Rachel, Kristen, and Hayden will be Britney, Enzo, and Ragan. Brendon was chosen by Rachel to host the little shindig.

Ragan is convinced that this POV will involve the much beloved unitard along with various prizes and punishments. It is the right time to have this competition so who knows. After the competition today, we just might see one of the hamsters dressed all in red! How funny would it be if Enzo was the one stuck in the unitard!

Kathy's really disappointed she didn't get picked to play in the competition as she was planning on winning it and taking Kristen off the block. No - seriously! The thought of her winning a competition is hilarious! Perhaps if it was an endurance competition for curling eyelashes and applying mascara she would have a chance. Oh and if it involved who could lay down the longest! Ha!

Kristen and Hayden are really going to have to fight for their lives in the POV competition today as nobody chosen to play have any plans on using the POV to save them. Again, that's as of today. Who knows what could happen in the end.

Anybody out there hoping that Kristen or Hayden wins the POV today? Do you think this might be the unitard POV competition? Let your fingers do the talking in the comments!

The live feeds finally went to Trivia at 2:37 PM this afternoon. That means that the POV is underway or will be shortly!

By the way, all of you Twitter folks need to be following Reality Blurred. He and some other journalists/bloggers have something to do with the competition this afternoon. He's posting some pics on his Twitter and I think you might be interested in some of them!

Pussy Patrol

The nominations are in this week and surprise! Rachel has bigger balls than Matt (and Brendon)!

Unlike Matt, Rachel stuck to her guns and nominated actual people in the house and not shadows. It doesn't matter if her nominations were emotional ones, she did what she wanted and basically told the others to screw off.

Did she nominate Kathy? No. Did she nominate Britney? No. Did she nominate Ragan? Hell no. Rachel nominated Kristen and Hayden.

We've seen this coming from a mile away since the show last night but I was worried about whether she would really stick to it or not.  Hayden tried to sweet talk her earlier and Kristen had her ear for over an hour before the feeds went to trivia for tonight's nominations.

All of it was awkward though. Rachel was able to drag some info out of Hayden earlier regarding Matt telling them that she'd go after a couple that dropped early in the previous HOH competition. Just wait until Ragan finds that out and it gets to The Brigade. Matt won't be happy about it but who cares. We'll get to watch Ragan fighting desperately for everybody to just hug and love each other. Barf!

Speaking of barf, could Brendon's sad display of self-castration be any worse than it was after the feeds came back on tonight? Apparently, Rachel made quite the speech in the HOH nomination ceremony and Brendon wasn't too happy about that. It is obvious to me that he has no testosterone and is worried about Rachel not being able to carry him through the game. I was actually proud of Rachel for just listening to him for so long without saying something back. She was probably thinking about a bag or something she could make from that sensitive testicle skin after he brings her the needle and thread.

So it's Hayden and Kristen on the block. Who do you want to win POV? Who do you want to go home? Do you think Brendon needs a patch or something for his hormone imbalance? Are you appreciating Rachel's actions like I am now? My questioning mind needs to know what you think!

Brown chicken brown cow! Brendon & Rachel got it on up in the HOH room last night. If you're interested in watching - well mostly listening - you can use the FlashBack feature and jump to 07/30 on Camera 3 at 2:22 AM. Post-coital bliss and then sleep happens 25 minutes later.

Some Excitement On The Feeds - One House Guest In Tears.

So we had some action today - and hopefully will have some more later on. 

Being as I have tweeted (BBGossip) and posted about it on ilovereality.com - I am just going to do what someone requested after my flashback tutorial.  Here are the highlights with the time "links" to the actual video.

9:45am Camera 3: Andrew confronts Kristen and Kathy and tells them to 'stop playing me like a fiddle." Implying that the two of them are aligned (Kristen has been telling him she was going to vote out Kathy).

10:11am Camera 3 or 4: Voices are raised as Kristen is really ticked off at Andrew for calling her out 'in public' and that she had told him she would be comforting Kathy a lot this week.  Andrew says he knows he is going but Kristen better watch her back.

10:15am Camera 1 or 2: Andrew in the "Have Not" room in tears. 

11:00am Camera 1 or 2: Andrew is Still in tears.

11:21am Camera 1 or 2: Andrew talking to Ragan.  Asks Ragan what would he do if he knew about one of his friends being cheated on.  Would he expose it?  He would (watch it to see the exact phrasing).

11:45am Camera 2: Andrew meets with Brendon in the "Cabana" room and in a round about way tells Brendon he is going to help Brendon and Rachel by messing up things for Kristen and Hayden.  This was in super secret whisper mode that you need headphones to hear.

So it looks like Andrew felt out Ragan and got the answer he wanted.  In Andrews mind Kristen is cheating on her 'boyfriend' (of a couple weeks before the show) with Hayden.  By exposing this relationship to the house Rachel and Brendon will be seen as less of a threat and the target may shift to this newly reealed 'alliance.'  I have no clue how Andrew thinks it might save him - but I can see how it might help Rachel and Brendon a bit.

I'm not sure if Andrew plans to do this today - or tomorrow - he has discussed calling a meeting - but in his convo with Brendon he mentioned doing something tomorrow night.

So the big 'meeting' was a bust - or rather Andrew just apologized to everyone.

Then early this morning (1:30am) Andrew told Enzo that he planned to reveal a secret alliance in his speech on tonights show.

Enzo then went and told Brit, Matt, Lane and Hayden.  None of them seem to guess whom it might be - but they won't be as shocked when he says something tonight.

The Brigade

MattSee that guy over there to the right? Yeah, that's Matt. Remember who the HOH is?  It's Hayden - that hunky hunk of a man I seriously drooled over pre-season.  They're two of the four members of The Brigade.  Lane, the mini chunkster from Texas, makes up the third member and Enzo, the overly paranoid Jersey boy, rounds out the group.

This all-male self-named alliance seems to have things all figured out for the next few weeks.  The original plan was to get rid of Brendon but since Brendon won the POV, they had to come up with a new one.  Originally, they were just going to work on getting rid of Rachel (the other nominee) by putting Kathy up as a pawn.  Hayden though wasn't really comfortable with the plan and has decided to backdoor somebody instead.

Enter Annie.  The overly matted makeup one has been getting around the house and people have taken notice - especially The Brigade.  They're not comfortable watching her buzzing around the house and getting up in everybody's business.  They have every right to be worried too.  Annie's playing the game hard and obvious.  If I had to pick who I would compare her to from other seasons I'd say she was a cross between Brian (remember him?) and Ronnie.  Yes, that Ronnie.

Brendon, Rachel, Britney, and Monet all know about the plan are onboard with it.  Remember that this week it takes six votes to evict somebody (or five votes and Hayden's tiebreaker vote).  Rachel has promised Hayden safety until Week 7 if she stays this week.  So that combined with the uneasiness many feel towards Annie (some thinks she's the saboteur as well) makes it seem likely that Annie will be put up in Brendon's place (he won POV remember) and voted out on Thursday's live show.  But remember, things could change at the drop of a dime.

Britney told Annie about the plan late last night and Annie got upset about it.  Annie blamed her tears on half of her family not signing waivers so that she could discuss them on the feeds but it was really the shock of finding out she's being targeted so early on in the game.  She also blamed her tears on PMS but whatever.

In other news, Andrew is becoming more human.  He actually had a decent talk with Hayden up in the HOH room yesterday but Hayden was only pretending to listen.  However, Hayden did tell Andrew how upset Angie was at the head in the crotch under the blanket incident and how she's been running all over the house talking about it ever since.  Hayden told Andrew that he should apologize to her and try to clear the air.  Andrew did later apologize to Annie and she accepted his apology.  I wasn't feelin' it though.  Especially when she later ran around to everybody exaggerating the whole apology as a confrontation instead.

Andrew also opened up about his Judaism practices and the Sabbath in the cabana room to a crowd of about six.  There were a lot of good questions from people about what he can and can't do.  Annie (yes, her again) and Enzo were pretty antagonistic about their questions though.  Andrew could have become very defensive about it but was very cool-headed and good-natured towards them.

And now for some miscellany.  Rachel talked about her first kiss with Brendon to Matt and Britney.  Matt created the term 'Brenchel' for them (gag me already!).  Monet and Britney are becoming quite the catty queens with Kathy as their sickly sidekick.  Perk up Kathy, you're sooo freaking boring!  Enzo is going to give himself a heart attack (and others) with his constant pacing and paranoia.  Hayden, Lane, and Annie had some new clothes delivered to them by Big Brother as some of the stuff they'd brought with them were not acceptable for the camera (blacks, whites, patterns, stripes, logos, etc).  Hayden told Kristen about the backdoor Annie plan (even though he told his fellow Brigade members he wouldn't) super late last night.  But that's because Hayden has a bit of a crush on Kristen.  hehe

Well the hamsters are getting up and beginning to move about for the day so it's time for me to go for now.  What do you think about The Brigade and their plan to backdoor Annie?  Have your opinions changed on any of the hamsters between yesterday morning and now?  Let us know in the comments!
