Turning the entire week into a mockery/great big waste of time, the producers voted out Jessie in Big Brother 11 Episode 16. Then Michele won HOH, putting her in the position of actually having to pick a side.
Big Brother is running about 20 minutes behind due to the golf overrun. A live blog will begin as soon as 60 Minutes is over.
We're half way through the season, yet Michele has not made either a friend nor an ally, but in doing so, she has also not made any enemies either. This week, she may well have to make some enemies. Her only somewhat useful offer for an alliance is Chima's women's alliance, which would leave her the opportunity to target the couple or the bully. Since Jessie's gone, though, the easiest thing may be to just keep the momentum the way the producers have forced it to go.
Chima's containing herself. We know that won't last very long.
Jeff says that Jessie and Natalie were walking to the finals unless somebody did something. Next time try winning a challenge for a change or maybe actually playing better if you feel that strongly about it.
Natalie assumes that Michele's going to put her up. Chima is having difficulty believing that because Russell told her that she needs to be medicated and is just as bad as Ronnie said.
Russell wants to try to start over with Michele. That'll last pretty much as long as she's in power, and then he'll flip out at her again.
The three girls who were crying over Jessie's eviction open up his wine bottle. Kevin will just sit there and grin and bear it. Well, not so much grinning as rolling his eyes. Jeff, Jordan, and Russell want no part of this and eat outside. It is a little creepy.
Michele has decided she wants Chima to go home because she's the biggest threat. To the guys. You'd have to be a complete idiot to think Chima's a threat to the women. She wants Russell gone in the worst way, and she's the one pushing the women's alliance because she wants a woman to win. It's entirely possible Michele is a complete idiot, though.
The contestants break into four teams of two for the have/have not competition: Jeff and Jordan, Michele and Russell, Natalie and Chima, and Lydia and Kevin. There you have basically the pairs of the house. Michele has essentially made it so she's stuck with Russell at this point. Good luck to her. It's a gross eating challenge in which they must correctly place casseroles in their correct locations. They will work together as a group to make sure they can all eat every day. Chima's got a sour look on her face the whole time. In the middle of the challenge, she tells Russell not to look at her. They do not win food for Monday but do match for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. They will be getting the BBQ grill and hot showers but no steak and lobster dinner.
Russell wants to know if Jordan likes Jeff as a boyfriend. If he lived in Charlotte, maybe. He proposes to her, and she says yes. In like 23 states, it's pretty much official.
Natalie doesn't think Michele would make an enemy in this house if Russell went home. She's right. He has no real allies, and he's attacked everybody at one point or another (then he apologizes when they get the power, and goes right back to attacking them the next weeek). On the other hand, if she targets either side, that whole side will now see her as a target, albeit perhaps less of a target than some other people.
