Big Brother 10: Nominations #5

Sunday Night's Alright for Fighting

Screaming is a common occurrence in the Big Brother house, but this episode featured the mother of all fights. First, Michelle and Renny get into a fighting match over an innocent comment Renny made laughing at Michelle studying the wake-up calls. Libra and Keesha walk in and there's a screaming match with Michelle and April over the betrayal and Jessie's eviction. Jerry continually shouts “Screw you people,” complaining about people breaking their word when they swore on the Bible or a cross or their children. Jerry and Michelle continue to doubt Dan's faith, saying he'll burn in Hell, to which Memphis and Libra are left agape. Dan wisely spends the whole fight hiding in his room with a pillow over his head.


The Chinese Have a Weather Machine!

For this week's food competition, the current HGs compete in a game show against former HGs by answering true or false questions about current events outside the house. The returning HGs include Bunky, Jase, Janelle, Mike Boogie and others.

Basically, the current HGs are very bad and get themselves on slop for five out of the next seven days. They didn't know that Brett Favre is now a New York Jet, that Britney Spears is not releasing a country album, that Cheech and Chong are reuniting, or that the Chinese have a weather machine and have banned bald and smelly cab drivers from the Olympics. To their credit, Renny knew gas wasn't over $6 a gallon, Michelle knew the earthquake was real and Keesha knew Paris Hilton didn't say something stupid in a political ad (although the question should have simply been whether she was in a political ad, which she was). Therefore, the house won food on Tuesday and Sunday, slop the rest of the week, and a special feast with beer and wine, while six former HGs each won $1,000.


The Nominees Are…

We all knew Libra was going to be nominated. The second slot was up for grabs. Memphis talked Michelle out of nominating Dan because Memphis and Dan are in the best alliance ever. Renny wants Michelle to nominate April because she's not trustworthy. But in the end, Michelle puts up Keesha as well, since she was Libra's co-conspirator to evict Jessie.

Tuesday on Big Brother 10, the Power of Veto is up for grabs. If Libra doesn't win it, she's almost certainly gone

Nomination Aftermath

Libra expected the nomination, and Keesha kind of expected. She still cried in her room after her key was kept from her during the nomination ceremony, and Dan came in later to comfort her. Dan is extremely pleased that he's not on the block. Libra comes in and says that, no matter what happens to her, she wants them to get April out of the house.


Behold the Power of Onions

The Power of Veto competition involved a crap load of onions. Libra, Michelle, Keesha, Memphis, Jerry and April were selected as players. They came outside to find a huge chopping block with hundreds of onions placed on it. The players had to chop up the onions in one of a few different ways, then transport the chopped onions across the block and place them into one of two boxes: the PoV box or the mystery box. The person with the heaviest PoV box wins the desired veto power. The top two mystery boxes win a mystery prize. Jerry ends up winning the Power of Veto. Memphis “wins” an onion necklace he has to wear for 24 hours. April wins five designer dresses.


Jerry's Hypocritical Hatred of Dan

Jerry still can't forgive Dan for his vote to evict Jessie. He has his suspicions that Dan is America's Player, but this doesn't quell his hatred. He wants to make it his mission to take Dan down and, despite numerous olive branches from Dan, Jerry will not forgive him. He calls him Judas on more than one occasion. It's pretty ugly, and really out of line.


Round Table of Love

During the feast won by Michelle in the food competition, the houseguests all stand up and say something nice about their fellow houseguests. Or, at least some of them try to. Keesha, Dan, Renny and Ollie all say good things. Libra is a bit of a sour puss, but she's putting on her best face. During some kind words from Keesha to April, Libra makes a joke that Keesha is only being nice because she wants to borrow April's designer dresses. Michelle is secretly taken aback by this comment for some unanswerable reason. Later, in the HoH room, Michelle tells April and Keesha about Libra's “joke” and acts like it was a significant personal swipe from Libra at Keesha. Keesha understandably is a little upset. They bring Libra up to explain herself, but they don't accept the truth: that it was an innocent joke. Keesha and Libra start shouting, Michelle joins in and it ends up being Keesha talking smack about April. She leaves, she's had enough of the drama. Michelle follows and Keesha tearily explains that April is the real evil in the house, the one who will undermine anyone for personal gain.


Jerry, Not So Likable Anymore

Jerry makes a big show at the Power of Veto competition in order to call Dan out. He calls him Judas. Way to get people on your side, Jer. He decides to keep Michelle's nominations and opts not to use the Power of Veto, leaving Libra and Keesha up on the block.

In Search of Votes, Judas Aftermath

No one in the house was particularly pleased by Jerry's Judas comments. Memphis is especially perturbed by the whole situation, as he should be. Dan, however, loves it. It's making him a sympathetic personality, and it's taking all the heat off of him.

April, Ollie and Jerry really want Keesha out of the house. April, especially, hates Keesha (one reason, according to April, is that Keesha “thinks she's prettier than me”). Ollie tells Libra that, if she wants to stay in the house, she should go talk to Dan. She does, but can't give Dan any solid details. Dan responds in equally vague terms.


Libra the Mother

We get an extended package from Libra's home. Her husband is completely supportive of Libra being on Big Brother, and in no way is it burdensome on the family. Libra's mother lives five minutes away, and she's been a big help during Libra's absence. Her husband is also quite happy that she took the Hawaiian vacation instead of the letter from her kids. It'll be nice for the two of them to spend some quality time together after she returns home.


Another Anti-Climax

Incredibly, Libra was evicted by a unanimous vote. OK, so maybe that wasn't so incredible. Libra was extremely grateful and upbeat about her eviction. Despite the fact that she has to go to the sequester house, she almost seemed relieved to get away from these people.


Confessions...

The Head of Household competition was called “Diary Room Confessions.” Each of the players sat in a chair while Julie Chen read them diary room quotes from one of the first four evicted houseguests. Whoever buzzed in first got to answer. If they answered correctly, they got to eliminate one player. If wrong, they were eliminated. It came down to Renny and Keesha, with Renny winning it all to become the new Head of Household.

Libra interview

Interview With Libra from Big Brother 10 : RealityWanted

Exclusive Interview: Libra, from 'Big Brother 10'

'Big Brother': Libra's Exit Interview - Big Brother - Zap2it

In what ways was the house different from what you expected?

We are a feisty group of house guests. No one person can truly back down from an argument. It makes for an exciting season - that's for sure!


What do you think, looking back, was your biggest mistake?

My biggest mistake was not wining an HOH competition. Winning an HOH competition would have given me the opportunity to take out a major target in the house and it would have allowed me to make a few deals with other house guests moving forward.


Who do you wish you'd had a different relationship in the house and why? Anyone who you got off on the wrong foot with?

I have no regrets and I do not wish that I would have played it differently from a relationship standpoint. If anything, I wish that I would have aligned my self with a male house guest rather than a female.


Are you happy with the way you played the game? How would you have done it differently?

Yes. I think that the nickname number 2 will stick with my for a while, seeing that I was number two in several of the HOH competitions. I would have played the game differently had I won an HOH competition.


Is April really as bad as she seems?

She is definitely a game player in every aspect.


What do you see yourself doing after the show is over?

After being apart of an experience such as this you have time to reflect on the things that matter in your life. I am sure that I will go back to my normal life, but who knows - anything can happen.
