Celebrity Big Brother: Another Wasted HoH

Hi y’all!

So, last night’s episode was kind of a bust.

It turned out that it didn’t matter who Omarosa was targeting.

It didn’t matter who the house wanted out.  It didn’t matter which veto you voted for.  (The veto that received the most votes was the VIP Veto, which would have given the veto holder the option to use it twice.)

Ross won the veto and took himself off the block.  Since he probably would have used the veto again to save Marissa if she had been nominated, that meant that his alliance was safe.  Since Omarosa’s plan has always been to split up the pairs, it would have made sense for her to put Ari up as a replacement and then everyone could vote out Brandi.  But again, none of that mattered.

It didn’t matter because Metta decided he wanted to go home.

And so, Omarosa nominated Metta for eviction.  Brandi thanked Metta for wanting to go home.  Everyone voted to evict Metta.  Metta left the house.

So, the end result of Omarosa’s HoH was that she nominated her only ally for eviction and he got voted out.

For the most part, I’m enjoying Celebrity Big Brother but it really drives me crazy when people ask to be voted out of the house.  First Keshia and then Metta.  Do they not explain how the game works to these people before they enter the house?

And really, if Metta wanted to leave, he could just leave.  It’s not like there are armed guards standing outside the front door.  If you want to go, GO!  Don’t waste someone else’s HoH.  It’s just frustrating because the majority of these houseguests really are playing the game but all that strategizing is worthless when players demand to be nominated so they can leave.

Anyway, on the positive side, everyone else in the house actually seems to want to be there.  And, even though there’s only a few days left, there’s still a lot of scheming and strategizing to look forward to.  Wednesday is going to be a double eviction and then, on finale night, three houseguests will be evicted!

As for what’s happening in the house right now — Mark is HoH!  That means that both he and James are safe for a few days.  They are planning on following Omarosa’s strategy of targeting pairs.  Now, to me, it would seem obvious that Ross and Marissa are a more dangerous pair than Brandi and Ari.

But no.  Apparently, Mark is planning on nominating Brandi and Ari later today, with Brandi as his target.  I’m not really sure if those boys are really aware of who is actually dangerous in the house.  James has had it out for Brandi ever since their first night in the house.

As always, we’ll see what happens!
