Week 1 Nominations

Hi, everyone! So, the feeds are now live and we’ve gotten a chance to see how everyone is acting around the House and I have to say that right now, it’s very high school. There’s definitely a “cool” group and they’ve decided that they’re going to take out the uncool kids one-by-one. Of course, we’ve seen this before on Big Brother and, inevitably, it always backfires.

Here’s what we saw on the show last night:

After being selected camp director, Jackson nominated Cliff, Jessica, David, and Kemi for banishment. He nominated Cliff, Jessica, and David because they all ran against him for camp director. He nominated Kemi because Kemi didn’t try to talk to him after he won camp director. Jackson doesn’t seem to be very smart. He should have begged for three volunteers and promised to give them anything in return. Then he could have just targeted one person and, as a result, he’d only have one potential enemy in the house instead of three.

Anyway, the banished houseguests had to make their way through a dark maze. Cliff, Jessica, and Kemi made it. David did not. David is out of the house but Julie hinted that he will eventually get a chance to return.

The HoH comp was won by Christie. After winning HoH, Christie formed a 6-person alliance with Jack, Jackson, Bella, Nick, and Holly. (Meanwhile, Christie has a side alliance going with Tommy. Christie and Tommy are keeping it a secret that they know each other outside of the house.)

From what we’ve seen on the live feeds, it’s evident that Christie has nominated Cliff and Kathryn for eviction. However, last night, Jackson was assuring Kathryn that neither she nor Cliff are being targeted. Instead, it appears that the plan is to backdoor Kemi. According to Jackson, nobody in the house like Kemi and they definitely want her gone. Jackson also said that nobody likes Ovi, apparently because he’s too awkward and is trying too hard to fit in.

So, as of right now, the 6-person alliance seems to be in control of the game. However, I could see that changing soon. Neither Jack nor Jackson are being particularly diplomatic about being in the cool kids alliance and I could imagine the rest of the house eventually coming after them with a vengeance.

(By the way, I know that we’re supposed to call Jackson “Michie” now. I’m not going to do it, for the same reason that I refused to call Angie “Rockstar” last season. It’s just stupid.)

I think that the veto comp will be held on Saturday and the veto meeting will be on Monday. That’s the way it’s usually done but the schedule for the first week of Big Brother is always a little bit strange. As of right now, it would appear that Kemi has to win that veto or her days in the Big Brother House are numbered but anything can happen.

We’ll see what happens!
